Mama Bear's Day Nursery (Clifton - Whiteladies Road)

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been attending mama bears for 1.5 years and our second is due to start later this year. Our eldest started in the baby room when he was 1 and is now in his third room. He has gotten on very well with his key workers and all of the staff. Early on they all knew his name and would say good morning
when we arrived. All of the staff have been amazing with him. The updates at pickup each day are thorough. Our son is quite accident prone so they always take the appropriate action and will call us to inform us of an incident if necessary or talk us through it at pickup. The app is great as you can record your child as dropped off or picked up, they post updates on their meals, how much was eaten, their nap times, accident forms are logged on there, nappy changes are logged and you get photo updates so you can see what activities they have done in the day. All of the children love the outdoor space and the see saw! It's a great atmosphere and environment, I would highly recommend it.

We've had such a lovely experience with this nursery. From the very beginning the staff made our daughter feel so welcome, safe, and cared for.
The team are incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, and it's clear how much they genuinely care about the children. In the short time she was there, we saw
her grow in confidence, enjoy new activities, and start forming little friendships.
We're so grateful for the care and support they've given her during this early stage of her life. Thank you to all the wonderful staff

Our daughter has attended Mama Bear's from the age of 1 and is now preparing to start Reception this September. Over these past years, the nursery has played such an important role in her early childhood, and we are incredibly grateful for the care and dedication of the team.
Nicola, the manager, has
been wonderful from the very beginning ,thoughtful, supportive, and deeply committed to the wellbeing of the children and families. Every key person our daughter has had has been kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in her development. Thanks to them she has built strong friendships and beautiful memories that will stay with her as she moves on to school. Like many nurseries, Mama Bear's has had periods where staffing has been stretched and they've had to navigate challenges beyond their control. Even during those times, the staff have consistently put the children and families first, going above and beyond to create a nurturing and safe environment. Thank you

As a parent, I couldn't be happier with the care my 2-year-old son has received at this nursery over the past three months. The progress he has made in such a short time has been incredible - he has truly come on in leaps and bounds.


The staff create such a warm, nurturing, and engaging environment,

which has made settling in so much easier for both of us. Megan, the room leader, is absolutely amazing with my little boy. She is so patient, caring, and clearly passionate about what she does. It's reassuring to see how well she understands the children and supports their development.
Amy, the nursery manager, is also fantastic. She is always friendly, approachable, and clearly committed to maintaining such a high standard of care and learning within the nursery.
It gives me great peace of mind knowing my son is happy, supported, and thriving every day he attends. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and stimulating environment for their child.

Emma, in particular, has been wonderful with my son. She is always full of energy, warm, and welcoming. It is very clear from the way she interacts with the children that she genuinely loves her job and cares deeply about
them. Seeing her work so passionately is a real joy as a parent.
I would also like to thank Jessica Hampshire, Faith Hawker, and Jessica Lewis for all their hard work and support. It's clear that the team as a whole is dedicated to providing a loving and nurturing environment for the children, and it makes a huge difference for us parents.
Thank you for having such a fantastic team

My daughter goes to Mama Bears in Fishponds and couldn't love it more. She is a shy child and sometimes can struggle in loud environments with adults. However the nursery staff have always been amazing at tending to her needs and settling her in. And helping ease our anxiety too by being such friendly
and kind people. We are incredibly happy with the care she receives when she's at nursery and love seeing on the app photos of her. The nursery has outdoor space which they utilise with the children daily and are always doing fun activities. Our little girl is thriving at this nursery and we would recommend it to anyone.

My child attends preschool and since starting he has grown exponentially in his maths and English as well as his social skills and confidence. He really enjoys going and often doesn't want to leave when I pick him up. Communication with the nursery is also excellent, and they have been very accommodating

My child started in the baby room in July 2025 when my partner returned to work. The settling process was well managed and staff supported me throughout. Any concerns I've raised have been addressed promptly. Recently, drop-offs have been hard and she's been upset, which is difficult as a parent. However,
the staff are always kind, reassuring and supportive, which really puts my mind at ease. I feel confident she is in safe, caring hands. The room lead and deputy manager has been particularly wonderful. She has had two key people since starting and the transition was handled smoothly. She now has a lovely bond with her new key person and is clearly very happy. Handovers are positive and reassuring. Overall, I'm very happy with the setting and would happily recommend it to other parents.

Our daughter started in October 2025, it was a bit of a rocky start as she had come from a childminder who couldn't give her the attention she needed. However, here we are 4 month down the line and it's a completely different situation. She is absolutely thriving at Mama Bear's and we are so happy with
how she has progressed.
The staff are absolutely fantastic and I cannot praise them enough, they're friendly, kind and always welcoming at the door for handover. I cannot stress enough how much this nursery has helped our daughters progression, and it is down to the wonderful people who work here.
The best choice we've made for childcare for our daughter and we cannot thank you enough!

Mama Bear's Day Nursery & Pre-School (Plymouth)

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since my son has been attending Nursery at Mama Bears, he has come on in leaps and bounds with both confidence and his learning. The relationship he has with staff truly shows when he talks about his key workers at home by mentioning them by name.This gives me confidence that he's being treated right
and also why I am thrilled my new baby will also be attending in the coming months. I feel privileged that my son is at mama bears and I cannot thank staff enough for the work they have put into my son.
Lastly, one thing that is particularly important to me is security. Although I have been attending drop offs and pickups close to 3 years, I am thankful to be still challenged on entry on some days. I'm grateful that new staff have the courage to challenge me (or older staff not recognising me with a hat on). No apologies necessary. Thank you to all of the staff at mama bears. Your extraordinary work does not go unnoticed.
