Our son started at Nuffy Bear in September 2024 and he absolutely loves it. He settled in quickly and is happy to be dropped off in the morning and is always so happy when we collect him in the evening. He adores his key worker (thank you to her!) and we can see that all the staff really care about the happiness of all the children. We have seen him develop so many new skills since starting nursery and can see that they really encourage the children with their learning, for example with things such as using a spoon by themselves. He seems to enjoy the meals and snacks provided throughout the day and i just wish he would eat more of this at home! They do lots of different activities throughout the day which he loves getting involved in and we love seeing the pictures of what he has been up to. Overall the nursery seems well run and also good with the administration side of things - keeping us updated with things, billing processes etc.

My daughter has been going to Nuffy Bear since May 2024. She has loved going and the gradual settlements that they do are really great and can be changed if needed. The staff are amazing and really work with the child and the level that they are at. There are two rooms for under twos and over twos. There is a shaded outside area where the children play. They take the children out and do yoga with them. 3-year-olds get free swimming lessons. Parents get a 40% discount at the gym which has started recently. Cannot fault the staff who are really great. You can just tell your child has had a great day. There is an app where you get updates on how much they have eaten, when they have had a nap and if they have gotten a bump during the day. I was so worried about sending them to the nursery, felt so guilty and worried but she loves it. Her spoon control with meals has really improved and she has learnt to take turns and has so much increasing confidence for going.

Our daughter had a hard time adjusting to full days at nursery and suffered with separation anxiety. Her key worker has been fantastic. Caring and patient with our clingy child she is a godsend! The manager and the whole team have been so flexible and supportive during the adjustment. I cannot thank them all enough and our daughter has developed so well since being with them all. Thank you Nuffy Bear!

I cannot recommend Nuffy Bear Nursery in Tunbridge Wells highly enough. Much like many new mums, I was hesitant to send my son to nursery when I returned to work. However, my attitude towards daycare has completely changed since my son began here. I don't just see it as somewhere he goes when I have to work. They provide new experiences, education, support and truly care for him- and keep me up to date throughout the day which made that transition even easier. Every single one of the staff is incredible and makes it feel like a home away from home - actually, it is a lot more fun than home! He has come on leaps and bounds since starting here and I would be more than happy to recommend this nursery to anybody looking.

A lovely, homely and fun nursery. Both of my children have been very happy here. The staff are fantastic and I’m always so impressed with their professionalism, endless patience and imaginative play activities. They are pragmatic when dealing with problems, but most of all they are very caring!

Both our children have attended Nuffy Bear Day Nursery. They have cared for them, challenged and supported their development, and given them positive memories of the first years of their lives. Our eldest is now thriving at school and we are sure the younger one will follow!

My son attends Nuffy Bear two full days a week and loves being there. We have found the staff very warm and friendly towards him. They have always tried to go that extra mile to provide fun activities throughout the day to keep him entertained as well as doing things with him that I would never have the patience to do at home like messy tuft trays etc. I have also found them to be flexible with providing additional days of childcare when I have needed. My daughter started school in September but was also at Nuffy and I believe her start there prepared her well for that next step in relation to development and social interaction. She also benefitted from the weekly swim lesson provided by Nuffield Health every week! Would definitely recommend Nuffy Bear for anyone looking for a child-focused, personable nursery.

Both our children attend Nuffy Bear. Our daughter in the baby room and son in the main room. We have been attending the nursery since January 2021. Our children love the nursery and all the nursery staff. We get regular updates on our children’s progress but also daily updates via the new app. This app is amazing to keep us up to date on a daily basis with what the children are doing each day. We highly recommend the nursery!

This has been a wonderful place for our child, they've given so much time and attention and some really strong bonds have been made. It's provided lots of entertainment as well as learning. The approach to get children involved with tasks and responsibilities like helping prepare lunch and helping the younger children has paid dividends to help our child be caring and respectful. We're really grateful for the consistent care the nursery has taken over the years.

Our daughter started attending Nuffy Bear Day Nursery when she was a year old in April 2022. The onboarding process was handled very well, and Evelyn enjoyed going from the first few sessions. Now in the big room, she absolutely loves going. With a special thanks to a couple of very special individuals, who ensure handovers are as stress-free as possible for her if she has a little wobble. We can’t speak highly enough of the staff at Nuffy Bear. One of the staff, in her role as manager, stands out with exceptional dedication, instilling in us the utmost confidence to entrust our daughter into their care.

My son has been going to the nursery since 2021. He was very shy at first and didn’t like being left, but with the support of staff he gained his confidence and now loves it. The staff have been very supportive with his development and are on hand if you have any concerns regarding additional needs. He enjoys lots of messy play and the outdoor space. The food provided is healthy and lots of variety. It’s a lovely little nursery I would highly recommend.

My son loves Nuffy and the staff have been absolutely amazing in supporting him where he has struggled in certain areas and we are seeing such great improvements. The staff really love the kids which ensures a great atmosphere at the nursery.

Our boys love Nuffy Bear and as parents we couldn’t be happier. The staff have always gone above and beyond to make sure our boys are well looked after. They genuinely care about all of the children and always offer to help them with any life changes such as the recent birth of their baby brother. One of our boys can be quite shy and they have made extra efforts to help welcome him in the mornings, ensuring he is always greeted calmly and with the biggest smile. This makes it so much easier for us to leave him. The boys have made lovely friends at the nursery too and they have encouraged them to communicate and play really nicely with each other. I would give 5 stars across the board but I feel it would be amazing for the staff and children if they had a larger outdoor space (not necessarily something they can control). We are so pleased with the care our boys receive there and we would definitely recommend the nursery.

My son has just started at the nursery and he is already loving it. The staff have been so welcoming and the settling in days really helped to get him used to everything. They have shown such kindness which has really eased any worries that I might have had.

Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Tunbridge Wells came highly recommended by a good friend and from our first enquiries and interaction, I felt very reassured in our choice. Our daughter settled in much easier than anticipated having had a year of maternity leave with me and this was a reflection of the caring, attentive nature and dedication of the staff. She is already making great progress with staff incorporating her home routine with opportunities to try out new things. It's really lovely being able to enjoy the workday knowing our little one is so well cared for. The food is excellent too!

From the moment I made my first enquiry with Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Tunbridge Wells I felt really at ease and confident in my choice. My little one was very at ease on his settling sessions and is looked after by very lovely girls. I love how his home routine is followed at nursery but he also gets to try so many new things he might not get to at home. The staff have been wonderful with all of my queries too.

Our twin boys have been attending Nuffy Bear Nursery, Tunbridge Wells, since May 2019. It is abundantly clear they have a wonderful team of ladies who are committed to caring, teaching and nurturing our children in a way that fills us with confidence every time we drop them off at the nursery. The boys have flourished at Nuffy Bear and they are constantly being observed and monitored by the staff to make sure they are developing and learning so they are ready to progress to the next stage of their childhood. The staff work well as a team and never miss even the small details that parents need to know about. They have supported us as parents and offered guidance when we have reached out to them. We have got to know certain members of the team very well and as parents, we feel that those individuals are simply irreplaceable. I am so grateful my children have had the privilege of growing up in their care.

My boys love Nuffy Bear nursery. My youngest son started in the baby room 4 months ago and he is so happy. It's always a struggle leaving your baby when you go back to work, but this has been made all the easier by the amazing staff at Nuffy Bear, who take such fantastic care of him. The staff are incredibly kind, caring and nurturing. In the baby room, all of the staff are wonderful and like second mum's to my son: to the point where he sometimes doesn't want to come home in the evening as he's enjoying himself so much. The staff provide detailed feedback on how his day his been and often send photos/updates during the day about how he's getting on. The meals served are always really nutritious -I've had to up my cooking game at home as a result. The variety of stimulation the nursery offer the babies (and toddlers) is fantastic, they have such fun-filled days. I've already recommended Nuffy Bear to friends who now send their kids there. I would recommend Nuffy Bear to anyone seeking a wonderful nursery.

My 19 month old has been at Nuffy Bear for 5 months and could not be happier. She is enjoying it so much we have increased her hours. Her speech has really improved and she seems to love all the interactions with other children and staff. All the staff have been amazing, very supportive and always happy.

Our boys have been at Nuffys since they were babies and absolutely loved it. The nursery is bright and cheerful. The staff genuinely care about the children’s development and created strong bonds with both boys. The care and teaching seem to be very tailored to the child’s interests and needs. Our eldest loved swimming lessons. Would highly recommend.
