Review from Meg B (Mother of Child) published on 18 December 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son (20 months) is currently in the baby room at the Bell Nursery and absolutely loves it there. When asked if he wants to go to nursery he runs to get his shoes. He has bonded very well with the staff and happily transfers over at drop off time. He is always busy and content when I come to pick
him up. He is the fourth of my children to have had a place at the nursery. My eldest joined at 12 months old in 2012. Many of the staff who were there when she started remain working in the nursery which has provided ease and consistency for our family. The staff organise and facilitate a wide range of activities for the children including walks around the town, trips to local garden centres, day trips out to the zoo and visits to local schools (to name just a few). My older three children (now in school) still enjoy going back to say hello to the staff. We are very very pleased with the nursery-can’t rate them highly enough.

My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 15 months old. She is now nearly 4 and I could not have asked for a better nursery. The support in the early days when I initially went back to work was great, the transition period was also really well managed. The range of activities that the children
do is incredible. They do PE, Spanish, music, visits within the community and to forest school. Children are well known by the staff and their individual progress is well tracked and relayed back to parents through several online systems. My daughter has flourished and I feel that Bell has given her the best possible preparation to join school next September. I have no doubt about recommending them.

This has been such a great nursery for my two children, who have loved their time there so much. The staff care so much about the children they look after and set them up amazingly to be ready for school. I cannot speak highly enough of the nursery and feel very grateful that my children got to go there.

Since starting in Moonbeams my child has gained a lot of confidence and really enjoys his time there. The staff keep us updated constantly regarding his progress and his development. This is really reassuring and helpful. Overall the standard of staff and facilities is excellent and we are extremely
happy that we chose the Bell.

Bell Day Nursery are absolutely wonderful. My daughter has been so well looked after ever since her first day. She now loves it so much she asks when she is next going back after we leave! The staff are so professional and friendly. They really get to know each individual child and are always happy
and full of energy. I'd highly recommend Bell Nursery to anyone looking for childcare.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My first daughter was attending Bell Nursery in Saffron Walden eight years ago and back then I was very satisfied with the care provided. When the time came for my younger one two years ago, I revisited all nurseries in Saffron Walden and again came to conclusion Bell is the best!
I cannot praise
more this place and people that work there: caring, loving, friendly, genuinely know and enjoy their job. They never stop on achieved and always look where possible to improve their services and facilities. They take children of all ages for regular walks, visit library, market, different playgrounds in town and even take them for further trips by minibus! They provide hot delicious meals - my daughter is never hungry in evening after nursery. They keep parents updated with daily report and photos of their child activities.
They contribute enormously into my child's development and happy upbringing. She is happy in Bell and I have peace of mind on the days when she is there. Thank you Bell!

We are so glad we chose The Bell for our daughter's nursery. The staff are warm, caring and enthusiastic, and our daughter has always been happy to go in. The range of activities and outings they do is incredible and they are constantly trying to better the facilities and resources, etc. with fundraisers,
etc. they put on.

My son loves nursery, and they provide him with a range of activities to help his development. The staff are knowledgeable and caring, and the whole environment is well-run. We’ll be very happy to be sending our next child there in the future.

We are so happy with the high quality care our son gets at The Bell. All of the staff are so lovely and caring. They are so child-centred, our son loves it here and communication home is amazing, with regular updates and pictures of his day. We couldn’t be happier!

The Bell Day Nursery has provided an outstanding environment for my daughter to flourish over the past three years. The staff are warm and caring with endless enthusiasm. The learning opportunities are fantastic and parents are encouraged to get involved regularly. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough!

Excellent nursery with brilliant staff. Very responsive to working along side parents to optimise the care of the children. Communication is very good via the app and with the child’s key worker. Great community events. Always out and about visiting everywhere from the town market to residential homes.
Highly recommended.

Placing your most precious possession in the hands of others is a very scary prospect as a new mum, but I can honestly say I have complete trust in the care and safety of my child at the Bell Day Nursery. The staff work tirelessly, nothing is too much trouble. The activities are varied and thoughtful.
It is great to have the peace of mind that my children are getting genuine great care.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at the Bell Nursery since he was six months old and he has always absolutely loved it. The communication between the nursery staff and the parents is excellent. They go out every day and do a really huge range of fun activities (visiting the old peoples home, trips to the farm, forest
school, the baptist church, picnics, trips to the supermarket). My son is entertained, challenged and cared for excellently. The focus on phonics and learning in the preschool class is brilliant. My son is talking about phonics all the time at home and has started understanding rhyming words. All in all, I cannot recommend it highly enough!
