Day Nurseries Owned by Nursery Village in Bristol

provision.

friendly and caring and we couldn't be more grateful for them to help our daughter thrive and keep her excited about nursery with all the fun activities.

and learning. and babies are very happy. They also show good flexibility. Also they're extending the nursery spaces. Food seems to be OK, but they're also trying to improve it.
The only real thing where they could improve is the absence of natural daylight in the babies room. But they go out from time to time and tons of activities

updating the app so you can see what they've been up to.

the app extremely useful as one point of contact/information.

is now in the baby room and is thriving there. The staff always give detailed handover information and it's lovely to see the observations of what they've been up to during the day along with information about their development.

New staff were rarely introduced, so parents often arrived to a room of unfamiliar faces. Communication was consistently poor, especially when our baby's place-secured over a year in advance-was cancelled with only 2 months' notice due to staff shortages, forcing us to find new places for both children which with local wait lists being well over a year was a nightmare. Outdoor space was poor, we were told that regular almost daily visits to the park would happen but in reality were very rare. While the majority of the staff working with the children were kind and caring, management and admin was disorganised, the toddler room often felt chaotic, and overall the nursery was very poorly run.

They seem to be having staffing issues & repeatedly ask parents to keep children home. If there's not enough volunteers, some children may be refused. The prices have been raised multiple times (prices displayed on this website are not correct) & often at short notice. Nursery closes twice a year, for staff training & these days are still paid for. Communication is slow and whilst they provide you with regular updates on development, important things such as your child suddenly no longer napping, or anything re potty training are often not mentioned.
My son really loves going there but for the eye-watering prices and constant cost increases, I would have expected a better service.

was a very big (and scary!) deal for us, but you made the transition as easy as possible and kept us informed of any issues or questions you had, to which we are very grateful. Seeing her grow and develop both physically and mentally under your care and, above all, really enjoy her time at nursery has been so special for us as a family. Her key worker has been outstanding since day one, we honestly couldn’t be happier with her level of care. The same goes for all other staff members taking on her additional needs with such positivity and enthusiasm. So, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for all you do for our daughter and for playing such a positive role in her life.

out to the garden and most importantly she has been safely supervised through it all.
My child is very active and keen to put everything on her face or in her mouth and staff have been excellent in keeping her stimulated and stopping her eating sand/rice/paint etc.
It is not easy to juggle supervising multiple tiny people and being energetic and upbeat all the time. Myself and my child's dad greatly appreciate the work you put in on a daily basis to feed/re-dress and entertain her whilst she learns about the world around her. You guys are all very patient and kind with our wee child and she loves going in to see her friends!

toys, a sensory room, a sleeping room and an outside space. It was important to us that he has a separate place to sleep as naps are so important, and most nurseries in the area just have a 'space' in the main room with soft mats for sleeping.
We really like and appreciate all the staff, and even though it took our little one a couple of weeks to settle, we knew he was having lots of cuddles. He's now so content at nursery and every time I pick him up he seems so happy playing. The staff are brilliant and you can really tell when he comes home how much he has learnt. We love the app so we can see what has happened in his day, as well as receive updates and pictures.

activities and books which I think is very important in this day and age. The team also make sure that preschoolers learn to be independent in readiness for school. I am blown away by the skills my little one has grasped and mastered since starting at Lydstep. I would definitely recommend this nursery to all parents!

done North Street Nursery.

needed during the day which is administered without issue. The care and attention shown to the children are lovely to witness and reassure us that our little one is having a great day.

which I take as a sign he’s had a good time and got involved in the learning!
The fee structure for when your child turns 3 and gets the free hours is much fairer than our previous nursery. We can fully utilise the free hours we are entitled to without restriction, which is also much more affordable for working parents. The opening hours are flexible and include bank holidays, which is very handy if you need to work bank holidays.
Overall, we are really happy with NSN and would recommend to any prospective parents looking for a new nursery.

he returned. Now, after 5 months once we enter the door I do not exist. He will go straight to play. He is at preschool and the teachers are amazing. Both of them are lovely and will do anything to make sure meet any child's needs and that I think is important. The building is new and is comfy and warm, they have numerous places with activities and every day is something new.
The park is in front of the building and because of the tall trees, in the summer you can be in the park because you have nice shade to run from the sun. About the food I cannot say much as my son only eats snacks, rarely food from them as we are not British and he is also picky with textures. I am happy I will have him here this year. Thank you.
