My little boy has been going to Mama Bear's Day Nursery for 2 years, since he was 18 months old. His little brother, aged almost 2, has been going since 11 months old. They both have very good attachments to their key workers and the other staff. I experience both kinds of drop offs on a daily basis - one child with separation anxiety who often cries at drop off, and the other who happily goes off without looking back - and they are both welcomed with warm hugs, and 5 minutes later they are both always laughing and smiling when I look through the window. The manager, is absolutely brilliant and has helped us out no end with all sorts of work related childcare problems we have, and always goes the extra mile - even replying to emails at 10pm about arranging extra sessions etc! I wholeheartedly recommend Mama Bears.

Our daughter recently started at this nursery and every team member has been so welcoming. They've spent time getting to know us as parents and our daughter too. We feel really confident that she's being well looked after and love all the new foods she's been trying and toys too. We love the daily updates which include meals, bottles, nappies and pictures. I highly recommend Mama Bear's Day nursery. Thank you to a wonderful team!

Mama Bears is an amazing nursery, not only for its superior care for children and its brilliant available facilities but for its compassionate caring staff and overall wonderful atmosphere. My child's confidence from attending Mama Bears is something I am very proud of, along with her development of skills, who she is as a child, and her ability to engage, all of which I don't think as a parent I could do alone to this level, but with their support, it's been more than achievable. My child is always happy and getting the best of every day at nursery here and I am extremely delighted it is here she goes to nursery. The team of staff at Mama Bears are truly wonderful and this shows by how your children are around them it's clear they feel safe and nurtured. The manager is someone you can have the greatest trust in, she is someone who will go above and beyond for you and is always there to help and I feel lucky to have support from someone like her, so thank you.

My daughter has attended Mama Bear Long Road Paignton for the last year and a half. She loves attending and runs in every day to meet the team and her little friends, she's grown in confidence every day and looks forward to telling me about her day. All the team are very approachable and report any concerns when appropriate with the aim of keeping all children happy and safe at all times. They work with parents to support them with their children's development and with young children they try to replicate their routine at home when possible to reduce any anxiety/upset and make them feel at home.

I am so impressed with Mama Bears Nursery (Long Road). My daughter started going from 10 months old- straight away they made her feel comfortable and asked me lots of questions about her routine, likes and dislikes. My daughter is now 18months and whenever I take she can't wait to play. When I collect her I poke my head in through the door and see her playing happily, having cuddles, or interacting with someone. I feel they all really care about my daughter and she's not just a number. She always eats well there. They encourage outdoor play and do messy play. I get regular updates via the app. The manager is amazing and so supportive of everything we have gone through since starting. Nothing is too much trouble.

The staff at Mama Bears have always been very welcoming, supportive, and great with communication. My partner and I feel very happy and assured with Mama Bears Nursery (Long Road). We get regular feedback, and updates on the app, and the staff are always happy to answer any queries we have. Our son has been thriving at this nursery and is fond of the staff and the friends he has made.

Mama Bears has always been so supportive towards our family and especially my daughter’s developmental needs. She has been there for nearly 2 years now and enjoys their activities so much she doesn’t even say bye anymore! My daughter has a great relationship with the staff in all of the rooms within the setting and feels very comfortable with them, the manager at the nursery is very informative and understanding. We will be continuing to use the setting until she is school-age and would recommend it to others. The bonus is it’s on-site to my workplace!

Amazing staff. Can't thank them enough for the care they provide for my son. He has come on leaps and bounds since he started. He now runs into nursery and is always greeted in the best possible way.

I use Mama Bear's for my little girl they were amazing when she first started by making sure she was calm when she didn't want to leave me. All the staff always have lovely attitudes and can't wait to tell me all about her day when I pick her up. Her key worker is amazing, when I pick her up she always has a smile on her face, she is clean and well cared for. I will continue to use Mama Bear's through my college journey.

Excellent nursery who have helped our daughter settle beautifully with them. Staff are caring and flexible to her needs as an individual. Local management is also visible and supportive and has been flexible when we have needed extra days.
07 March 2024
The level of accommodation and support provided by the manager, deputy manager SENCO, and all staff has been exemplary. Caring about the whole family whilst prioritizing our child's needs at all times. Working long hours and constantly being courteous and thoughtful. Great childcare, teaching, and support to develop skills. They definitely deserve praise and where possible additional staff to help when times are busy.

My son has been attending Mama Bears Long Road for nearly 2 years, and I cannot explain how much he has thrived since being there. The staff are brilliant and always willing to go above and beyond for me and my child. My son gets very overwhelmed and they are always there to help keep him calm. I couldn’t recommend them enough.

My twelve-month-old son has attended Mama Bears Nursery for one month. I have been thoroughly impressed with the experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff who seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me and my child. The facilities were bright and colourful and all of the equipment is well-maintained and up-to-date. What really stands out to me is the level of care that every child receives. The nursery has a real sense of community, where each child's individual needs were catered for, with plenty of opportunities for socialisation, learning and play. It's reassuring to see such enthusiasm from both the staff and children alike. Overall, I would highly recommend Mama Bears Nursery as an excellent choice for anyone looking for quality childcare in a warm, nurturing environment.

My children have been coming to Mama Bear's for almost 2 years now and absolutely love it. The manager and the team are absolutely amazing. They go above and beyond to help you and nothing is ever an issue. The children thrive there and always come home so happy. I can't fault them in any way, I have another child starting this year and can't wait to see how much he thrives too.

Both of my children are in great hands with the staff at Mama Bear's. My eldest is always excited to spend a day at nursery full of games, songs and many different activities. He loves spending time out in the garden. While my youngest has a lot of 1 to 1 care with his key worker and enriched sensory play. Throughout the day I get constant updates on the app which gives me great piece of mind.

My son has been attending Mama Bear's for nearly 2 years now and I have no complaints or concerns regarding his safety and learning. The staff are very friendly and always welcome my son with a big smile and make him feel welcome. The manager and the team have been very supportive to me and I’m very glad I chose this nursery for my child.

All 3 of my children have attended Long Road nursery and I highly recommend it. They are very welcoming and great with the children. The service they provide is amazing! They have some lovely outdoor space and the rooms are very welcoming and interactive too.

Great nursery - my son has been going for about a year and his development has come on leaps and bounds. When he started I explained he had a speech delay and so his key workers have spent time working with him one on one with his speech and I’ve noticed a huge improvement. Communication is great and the staff are always polite and friendly and answer any questions you have. Getting updates on nappy changes/food eaten etc daily via an app is a massive bonus. Overall very happy with Mama Bear's.

My son started at Mama Bears Long Road in October 2022. Right from the start when I went to look around to now the team have been very helpful, attentive and supportive. I cannot thank the team in the baby room enough for how hard they worked and the patience they showed in helping my little boy (and us!) to integrate into nursery life. My son absolutely loves nursery and it’s clear when he returns home how much he has enjoyed himself. He has come on leaps and bounds in his speech and his general overall development as a result of being at the nursery just 2 days per week because of the activities and stimulation and attention he gets when he is there. The team in the baby room always have a chat with my partner to tell him about my son's day and how he has been. They are responsive and attentive to his needs and the requests I make. I would recommend this nursery to anyone. The team are top-class and a real asset to the nursery. Thanks all.

We were understandably nervous about finding the right nursery for our child. Mama Bears were by far the best we visited and we immediately felt it was the right place for our son. They have been incredibly supportive of us and helped our child settle in. Since he started attending he has developed his confidence, skills and the team has made us feel that he’s a valued and well-cared-for child. He does a wide range of activities, they offer him a good and healthy range of meals and we get regular updates which offer us reassurance. He enjoys his time there and that’s the best part for us.
