Good!
Great nursery, friendly staff. My son is very happy and enjoys Burstead Bears.
Excellent facilities, great nursery.
My daughter has the most amazing time at nursery, she is always so excited to be seeing her friends and also the staff that look after her friends and also the staff that look after her. She has made many special bonds with the staffs and this has helped her be comfortable in situations with new people. My daughter has learnt so many skills be being part of this nursery, she can count comfortably, understands feelings, understands cultures and so much more at the age of 3! Amazing nursery!
I have always been very happy with the nursery. My son attended and now my daughter attends. My son's development rocketed at the nursery and he was taught colours and numbers/counting etc from a young age. He always enjoyed his time there and the staff were always very pleasant and helpful.
Excellent nursery, the staff are fantastic and my daughter loves coming here.
We have been really pleased with our daughter's time at Burstead Bears. We look forward every week to reading about what she's been up to whilst she is there. Everybody is very friendly and keeps us informed on how our little girl is doing. As s a first time worrying dad. I am so pleased we had this place was recommended to us.
I was so nervous about sending my child to nursery, but I have confidence in the girls and feel it is the best choice I've made.
My son loves Burstead Bears, he comes home really excited talking about his day and what he has been up to. His days are always varied. The staff are good, very attentive and caring. They are always happy and we are impressed with the treatment and care they give to my son.
Burstead Bears is a lovely nursery. The small rooms and high ratios mean I'm confident my children have the care and attention they need. The days are structured and lots of fun for both of the children. The ladies are all fantastic, very loving and caring and I'm very happy to have my children cared for here whilst I'm at work.
Excellent nursery!
Excellent!
Excellent facilities and staff.
My 4 year old grandson and 2 year old daughter could not be happier here. They have learnt so much from the staff that put a lot of time and effort into caring for the children. My grandchildren enjoy all of the activities at the nursery and they always learn from them too. The food they receive looks and smells amazing and the staff encourage lots of healthy eating throughout the day.
My 2 year old little girl enjoys coming to nursery and asks when she is going to be going to nursery. When she first started my daughter had very limited speech and now that has changed, the girls have worked with her and know she is always chatting away. I would recommend this nursery 100% to anyone that is looking for a nursery and the level of care is outstanding. Well done.
I have a 2 year old son who has been attending the nursery for about 7 months. I am very impressed with the level of care and attention for my child. The girls are amazing and my child looks forward to coming to nursery which puts my mind at rest as I know he will be safe and looked after.
All the staff at Burstead Bears are extremely professional and experienced and have fully supported my twin boys development from 9 months through to 2-5 years. Both my twin boys were premature and the youngest faced a few challenges in his early development. The nursery worked with us and outside agencies to provide us, the parents, with regular detailed progress reports which we shared with the paediatricians to provide a balanced and unbiased insight into his development. Burstead Bears provide a safe environment where the boys are extremely happy which enables them to learn and develop while having fun. This provides us as working parents peace of mind that all the boys needs are fully catered for.

Meet the Team (5)
Rachael, who has over 20 years of experience in childcare, joined Burstead Bears in September 2006 and helped establish the Nursery to the enviable reputation it enjoys today. Rachael has qualifications in both childcare and management and is responsible for the day-to-day running of the nursery.
Bethany is a bright, cheerful and outgoing character, who joined our nursery team because after completing a 2-week work experience at a nursery, she realised that it was a long-term career in childcare that she wanted to pursue. Bethany enjoys creative art and, in particular, painting, which is put to good use with the children. Since becoming a member of Burstead Bears, Bethany has demonstrated excellent interaction skills, as well as a willingness to help others and a desire to progress in her role within the nursery to make a rounded member of the team.
Nicola is a bright, enthusiastic and caring individual who has a wealth of experience working with early years’ children of all ages, from newborn babies to our pre-school children. Nicola started life at Burstead Bears in 2010 as one of our nursery practitioners with a true passion for working with young children. As time progressed, she was promoted to a senior nursery practitioner, a role for which she is highly respected. Additionally, Nicola assists with various duties in the management of the nursery. Since joining the nursery, Nicola has started her own family and now has a lovely son.
Keli has been working in the childcare sector since 1998, during which she has worked as a nanny for 10 years with children aged up to 16, and as a nursery practitioner with children from birth to age 5. Within Keli's role, she has cared for many children of varying abilities, including a 5-year period where she had great pleasure in caring for a child with autism, who, thanks to Keli's input, is today learning, socialising, communicating, and developing really well. This makes Keli one of the nursery's most experienced and respected members of staff. After all the years Keli has worked in this sector, she still maintains the same passion in her role caring for children and helping them progress as she did when she first started. Keli's main pursuit outside of work is caring for her 3 horses as well as competing in various equestrian events, in which she has been most successful, winning trophies for show jumping, cross country and dressage.
Jodie was initially inspired to work in childcare by her mother, who had worked in the childcare sector for many years. Since joining Burstead Bears, Jodie has displayed her passion for working with children by showing a great deal of empathy, warmth, understanding and enthusiasm whilst interacting in both play and education. This is evident as the children immediately warm to Jodie’s friendly and gentle persona. Jodie’s interests include: canoeing, sailing, reading and painting.
