View Full Details of Aristotots Nursery SchoolFantastic, helpful team. Both my daughters have attended Aristotots and have had the best experience. My 2-year-old is experiencing a delay in her social skills and the staff has been super helpful, supportive and has given lots of advice on what potential future steps we may take, while also being reassuring.
After visiting lots of nurseries we went for this one as it has that home-like, cosy, warm and friendly feeling; my daughter joined at 7 months she is now 19 months and there was never a day where we regretted our decision. She loves it there! The staff are brilliant, caring, very communicative and respectful of the parent's wishes. They've been fantastic at helping my daughter's development and have been a strong asset through every milestone (eating, walking, talking, counting, singing, napping.) Big shout out to the ladies in the Caterpillar class (baby class) who made an anxious mum feel more serene and chill! Leaving my 7-month-old to go back to work was a challenge for me but their professionalism and care made me feel like I was leaving my daughter in great hands! Now my daughter is in Ladybird (12 to 24 months) and again could not be happier with how things are: this is a class with a great staff conducting fun activities and helping our little ones become witty toddlers.
My experience of Aristotots Nursery in Bedford is that the care for the kids is fantastic. Staff show so much care and attention. This is why both of my children attend there, my eldest now having benefitted from all the age range rooms. The facilities are great, but it's also the detail about going beyond, that impresses. The summer and Christmas parties for the children to enjoy really show the level of detail the staff put into their jobs. Recently a well-being coffee station has been added for parents to grab a drink on the way to work. It makes such a huge difference for those of us running on little sleep. If I would make one comment it would be admin correspondence could be quicker. However, the team do provide app updates in sufficient time and great newsletters. The kindness of the building though is such an asset to this nursery. I shopped around when choosing a nursery but Aristotots won my vote.
From the moment you walk in, you are made to feel welcome and my little one loves it! He is supported well and his learning journey is shared with clear links to the EYFS framework and it's been a key part of his learning! He enjoys it so much and is excited to walk in and see his friends when he goes! The staff are kind, caring and friendly and so helpful! Thank you!
It is a very good nursery. All the people that work there are so nice and professional. My daughter loves going to Aristotots every day and she keeps talking about her friends and key workers all the time.
My daughter has been at Aristotots for 5 months since she turned 9 months and she absolutely loves it. We have seen her grow in confidence since attending and her development has been brilliant. The nursery is very welcoming and you can tell that the staff take the time to get to know each child; even if we are not dropping her off with her key worker at breakfast time our daughter is greeted by name and she is comfortable with the staff. As parents, you can talk to all staff, from the staff in the rooms to the management and ask any questions. They are very helpful and try to be as flexible as possible with sessions to help with different situations. We're very happy with Aristotots!
No greater decision than selecting a nursery to care for your child. After visiting numerous nurseries, we decided upon Aristotots thanks to its 'homely' feel and the positive reception we had from the management staff. Fast forward and my daughter has now attended the nursery for over 18 months and we couldn't be happier. The staff are just a joy, the garden is wonderful and the variety of food is fantastic (compliments to the chef). This nursery goes the extra mile with little touches such as decorating the nursery in celebration of notable dates throughout the year. Other highlights include the fruit trolley by the door which is entirely free for the children to select from as they leave, and their app whereby pictures are uploaded, allowing us to see some of the activities my daughter has been partaking in. We couldn't be happier!
Could not be happier that we chose this nursery. The staff are fantastic with my little one. We have seen a huge improvement in his talking, numbers, shapes and colours. Most importantly he is extremely happy here and comfortable with all the wonderful staff in his room. Highly recommend.
Our son has attended Aristotots since he was 1 and he has loved his time there. He has great relationships with the staff and they have been very supportive in meeting his additional needs. The management team are very approachable and is always there to listen if you need to discuss anything. It'll be a sad day saying goodbye when our son leaves for school!
Excellent, caring and attentive nursery. Staff are brilliant, always there to support not just the child but the family too. The facilities are great too. The food is a major plus, always a freshly made varied diet that my daughter loves. I sent my son here years ago and he still has very fond memories and can't wait to see everyone when we pick his sister up. I have no concerns when leaving my child in their care.
What an amazing team. My youngest has been attending for just over a year. The staff have been fab at settling him in and progressing his confidence and stages. It seems like one big family. I feel I can approach them about anything. The food looks and smells as if made in a family home with love. The garden has a great outside space and my little one loves the rabbits! Would recommend it to anyone I meet. Will be sad to leave when he starts pre-school in September. Keep up the great work ladies.
Aristotots is an incredibly welcoming, friendly and caring environment. Our eldest son has attended for 18 months since we moved to the area and will be there until he starts school later this year, just as our younger son starts. The staff are kind, flexible and nurturing, and really go above and beyond to understand the individual needs of the children to ensure they feel settled, confident and happy. They strike a great balance between ensuring days are fun while enabling children to develop. In particular, the team have been brilliant at helping our son navigate new situations, changes and transitions, which he finds particularly challenging. It's clear how much he enjoys his days there and the strong relationships he has built with both staff and children. It really does feel like an extended part of the family, which makes our lives as working parents much easier. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
My son has attended Aristotos Nursery for around 2 years and has just left to attend school. They have been absolutely amazing with support for myself and my son, the staff are great and really took the time to know him and his needs and have always been welcoming and in good spirits. The management is great and runs smoothly, any issues or queries I have ever had have been supported and dealt with in a timely manner and I have always felt as though you can talk to all the staff including management with full transparency. Overall they are an amazing nursery and well worth it.
Aristotots is an excellent nursery. You get a warm feeling as soon as you walk through the door. The staff are all so lovely and very good at what they do. Really lovely garden which they play in daily, whatever the weather! My son couldn't be happier at Aristotots!
I have been so impressed with Aristotot Nursery in the 6 months since my son started. The staff have been very supportive, provided great oversight and the communication and liaison between management and nursery day staff with myself and my husband has been fantastic. We have been fully supported with modifying approaches to some challenging behaviour and the advice and guidance given outside of the general care of my son has been incredibly supportive and I have been so grateful. The nursery is fantastic, with all staff caring for the children in a loving and nurturing way. Excellent provision of meals and snacks, way beyond what I expected from a nursery, fantastic outside space and really engaging activities which have allowed my son to develop in areas he was previously not paying overt interest in. A very happy, comforting, natural environment that provides the 'home from home' atmosphere we were looking for. My son looks forward to going every day!
My son attended Aristotots for nearly four years, having been in the baby room all the way up to pre-school. From day one, I have felt confident in the staff's standard of care and attention, and as a parent, they made my transition back to full-time work so much less stressful! My son absolutely loved going to nursery every day, and quite often, I wouldn't get much of a good-bye from him as he was too excited to get stuck in. The staff keep parents updated and plans wonderful themed weeks and activities. A trip to the zoo was also organised for the pre-school class, which was well organised, and the kids loved it! I'm already missing going into the nursery and catching up with the manager and the team - thank you all so much for everything!
I have been very impressed with the preschool teaching staff who have taken my concerns about my daughter seriously and have monitored her and eventually referred her for early years support. I feel that teaching staff in the preschool class are passionate and have high expectations for the children whilst remaining nurturing and caring. I feel that the preschool staff are experienced in SEN and offer excellent support to children and parents. There has been great communication between the main pre-school teacher and home and they have had excellent ideas to support in nursery and at home. My daughter has always enjoyed going into nursery and has always come out happy. She has made very good progress in the preschool class.
This is a lovely nursery. Both my children have attended and have formed strong bonds with members of staff and friends for life in the other children. They have benefited from a wide range of activities and I am often surprised when my eldest shows me a song or dance or game or piece of information he has learned from one of his teachers. The staff are really helpful and are always keen to be flexible wherever possible which we have found useful.
My son has had a fantastic time at Aristotots Nursery School. He has gained in confidence and really enjoys his time there. The staff have always been kind and patient and work hard to gather our opinions as parents. They always offer a warm welcome. I feel they have given him an excellent start to school life.
Aristotots Nursery School have shown exceptional care and love over the past 4 years, their dedication and nurturing have made a remarkable difference to my little one. The nursery truly became a second home to us and we cherish the memories. It is sad our time with Aristotots is coming to an end. I am so grateful for the love and patience and attention you have given my little one.
