Where do I start? The nursery is absolutely outstanding. My daughter joined April 2024. My child took a little bit of time to settle but she's finally got there with all the amazing support from the staff.
All the staff are so caring and loving and absolutely go above and beyond to cater to every child's
needs. Since starting my daughter has started to talk a lot more and is using full sentences and is now willing to try lots of new and different foods. She has amazing bonds with every staff member and always talks about them when at home.
Music and smiles is an added bonus and my daughter loves joining in.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It's been such a pleasure watching her blossom!

I could not recommend Nuffy Bear in Sunbury highly enough! I knew from my first tour that this nursery was perfect for our little one and they have been absolutely amazing from his first settle to date.
All the staff are friendly, helpful, understanding and supportive. Genuinely a wonderful team.
The
app they use is brilliant; notifications of meals, nappy changes and nap times.
They also send photos of the kids doing different activities which helps brighten my day!
So very pleased with this nursery.

As a first-time mum, I couldn't feel more reassured leaving my daughter with the team at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Sunbury.
The care they give every child is second to none, and the support they show towards both me and my daughter is so valued.
They go above and beyond for each child's individual
passions and interests.
I cannot recommend them highly enough.

My son came to Nuffy Bear 2022-2023 and was very happy; made a lot of friends and ate a lot of food that he wouldn’t eat at home. My daughter has now started at ten months old and has settled in very well and goes to all the staff. Staff are very friendly and give the children a warm, exciting and friendly
environment.
Music classes are fabulous!
Very happy.

We could not be happier to be settling our daughter of 11 months into Nuffy Bear Nursery this month. Her brother joined in January 2022, aged 13 months and attends 4 days a week. Considering my maternity leave was during all the lockdowns and social distancing of covid, our son settled really well thanks
to the care and patience of the staff. He loves his days at nursery and has become a sociable and confident little boy with the help of their care and support. The staff put so much thought into the daily activities and it’s lovely to see these on the app. The yoga and music classes run by 3rd parties are also much appreciated by our son. It’s a real plus for me that the team looking after my daughter are largely the same as when my son joined. The staff are not only great with the children but offer words of support or a hug when you turn up having had one of those mornings!

We have had a fantastic experience at Nuffy Bear Sunbury.
The staff are caring and attentive. They create a safe and nurturing environment where our little one feels valued and cherished. Their dedication to each child's well-being is evident every day. The nursery offers well-designed facilities that
are both inviting and educational. The classrooms are colourful and engaging, while the play areas are filled with toys and activities that promote creativity and social interaction. One standout feature is their approach to learning through play. There is a great balance between structured activities and free play, making learning enjoyable for the little ones.
Communication with parents is great with regular updates and photos through their app. The carers are approachable and open to feedback, which we appreciate. We feel confident that our child is in good hands and we recommend it to other parents.

I cannot fault the nursery or its staff at all. Since my son started there (December 2022) they have been unbelievably supportive to him and my wife and I. As first-time parents, we've felt reassured from Day one. My son absolutely loves every moment that he spends there, and the manager and the whole
team have been amazing in helping him learn and develop. He is a hugely different little boy to the one that started there a year ago and so much of that is down to the incredible environment this team creates. I cannot vouch for or recommend this nursery and it's team enough.

My son has been at Nuffy Bear for just over three months now and honestly I can't thank the team enough. The staff are so friendly, my son loves them. I had to return to work early, but honestly it's such a weight lifted off my mind when he is at nursery. The app is amazing, it's great to receive updates
and images, especially if you are at work stuck in meetings. I would highly recommend, the settle-in sessions really help as it can be a huge transition, but the team are so kind and caring, I couldn't ask for more.

My daughter has been attending Nuffy for the last three years and has enjoyed every day. The team are amazing and friendly and provides 5-star care.
No day is the same for her at Nuffy, as every day has different activities that challenge and help her develop and grow. The app that they use keeps me
informed and shares her day with me.
If you live near or around Nuffy in Sunbury, I would 100% recommend sending your little one there.

My son started at Nuffy Bear Sunbury in June 2023, when he was just over nine months old. The staff ensured he had plenty of settle sessions before he started for full days. The staff were super patient with him as a breastfeeding baby who refused the bottle to start with. My son is always so happy
at nursery, and he has built strong bonds with all the staff. The app is a great way for me to see how his day is going while I am at work, and I absolutely love the picture updates we get a few times a week. Overall, I am very happy with all aspects - management, staff, food, activities, etc. and would definitely recommend to family/friends.

My little girl has been at Nuffy Bear for a few months now and I can’t praise it enough, the team are really friendly and caring and have supported me as a new mum leaving her little one for the first time. The manager is really welcoming and reassured me of any concerns I may have had. I liked the
fact there are 4 weeks of settlement which really helped my little one to settle in well. As a new mum, you always feel guilty about leaving your little one but I couldn’t be happier knowing she is in great care at Nuffy Bear.

My daughter was at Sunbury Nuffy Bear Nursery from 9 months to 18 months. I was particularly worried about how she'd settle in as she was quite young and a lockdown baby, but the whole team made her feel so settled and welcome. She always enjoyed her days and was always excited when we got to the car
park to know she'd be spending time at nursery. The team made the days exciting, fun, and interactive, I saw my daughter develop from strength to strength in all areas. The manager was amazing and nothing was ever too much or too difficult. She led the team fantastically and you could see that in the children, the team, and the mums. Thank you to everyone at Nuffy...we miss you all.

My son (10 months old) loves coming to nursery. All the staff were very attentive to all of his needs when having his settling in sessions and always had great communication with me and my son's dad. There's always different activities for him each day and something new for him to try. He loves the
food and never comes home hungry. He loves all the ladies that look after him and is always happy to go to nursery each day.

What a fantastic nursery, the management and the whole team are so caring and dedicated to each child and their needs. The pandemic had its effects on my son not really being around people. The attention and care given to my son to help him settle properly at the nursery was just so fantastic to see,
nothing was too much trouble. I was also very impressed with the food menu which my son really enjoyed.
I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for the best care for their child.
I wish all the team continued success with the nursery.

I cannot recommend this nursery enough. The way they nurture these children and babies, especially during a pandemic, is truly second to none.
I am so delighted our son has the opportunity to learn, play, grow and thrive at Nuffy.
The team is led by 2 excellent managers who clearly lead from the
bottom up.
The whole team is child-centred, creative, kind and supportive and my son is thriving in their provision.

The staff are all very friendly at drop off and pick up. They are very good at giving detailed information about my son's day, and always have time to discuss anything of importance regarding his care. He loves interacting with all the staff and taking part in all the activities the nursery provides.
He
can be funny with his food at times, being a toddler, but eats well there and likes the food. Best of all he is very happy going in and loves his time there. I would recommend this nursery.

We couldn’t have chosen a better nursery than Nuffy Bear. My daughter enjoys going to Nuffy Bear and I am delighted to see how excited she is to see her friends and the staff during her sessions. The management and the team are very professional and friendly and provide detailed daily feedback on my
daughter’s progress. They always go above and beyond and I have no reservations about leaving my daughter in the care of this nursery and would recommend it to other families living within the Sunbury area. Thank you Nuffy Bear!

My little one started at Nuffy Bear in September when he was 10 months. He struggled a bit at first but the Nuffy Bear team were so supportive and patient with him. He now loves it there. They do lots of activities outside and indoors which he really enjoys. The team are really friendly and always take

My daughter started nursery at 8 months in March 2020. It was all a new experience for us but all ladies at nursery were extremely helpful, caring for my daughter. Gave her lots of cuddles and looked after her well. My daughter loves going to nursery. She enjoys interaction with other kids, plays with
sand and other messy play activities.
My little one is very happy here and I highly recommend this nursery to other parents.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.917)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.917) out of 10 for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Sunbury is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.917 for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Sunbury is calculated as follows: ( (121 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.917

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Sunbury is based on 11 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 32 number of registered child places is 6.4, which has been reached with 11 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
