Bear's House Nursery, St Leonards

Very friendly staff, my child has really started to show his character since starting with this nursery. I find them really helpful.

This is a great nursery! My daughter has been going here since she was 7 months old and I couldn't be happier. The staff are all caring and have bundles of energy to keep all the children entertained throughout the day. My daughter gets excited to go in the morning, running to members of staff for a cuddle and always comes home happy and tired from her days here. There are always activities going on and the children are obviously kept busy and learning throughout the day. The food always goes down a treat and I love that they spend time outside playing. The staff have been really supportive of anything we're trying to do at home and are generally interested in the children they look after. The atmosphere in this nursery is brilliant, you feel instantly happy walking through the door as everyone seems to be having so much fun!

My son is 2 and has been attending Bear's House since October 2018, he absolutely loves it. The staff at Bear's House are so caring and passionate about the children; helping them improve existing skills whilst learning new ones. I couldn't wish for a better nursery, this was the first one we looked at and we all fell in love with it from day one. The nursery provides so many activities and opportunities for the children, and communication between them and parents is fantastic. My son loves the varied meals and snacks that are provided which is always healthy and well balanced.

My son has a food allergy and the nursery are brilliant in ensuring he remains safe in this area.

On days my soon attends I leave knowing he is safe and well looked after and I have no concerns, he always comes home a very happy boy.

Both my children have flourished here and built their confidence to be able to be ready to start school. The staff go above and beyond and have genuine care and love for the children they look after.

This is an amazing nursery, my little girl has been here over a year and loves to come every time, she has learnt a huge deal since starting and has become very confident child. They spend a lot of time outside which my girl really enjoys. The staff are very professional and are really good at what they do also talk to you and let you know how they have been getting on and also what they have been up to during the day, would highly recommend this fantastic nursery.

The nursery are so kind and patient. My daughter is 14 months and has had a hard time settling in but the staff have taken their time with her. My daughter has finally settled and has a good time.

Great nursery. My daughter loves attending and is a much more confident, sociable and happy child since she started going to Beas House Nursery last year.

The nursery provides a real "home from home" atmosphere for the children. I like the way they are divided into appropriate age groups yet still allowed to mix with the younger and older children as this teaches different levels of social interaction. The staff are really lovely, always smiling and always willing to go the extra mile to help in whatever way they can. The building itself is very homely and not daunting at all for younger babies and toddlers with different rooms for different activities which I liked as opposed to it being one open space. The garden is really beautiful in the Summer and I like the way the children are encouraged to spend so much time outdoors playing. My son has been very happy since he started and has been supported throughout his development. He is really thriving in the nursery - his speech and counting, colour recognition and confidence are amazing. I can't really fault it at all - it is simple, lovely and friendly and keeps my son safe and happy.

Since starting nursery, my daughter has developed in so many ways, she is more confident with people, her speaking has come along quickly. She has lots of fun and she loves the staff there. Overall, I think that Bear's House is a lovely clean environment for children to enjoy.

I feel that my daughter is as safe as if she were in my care. Great nursery and atmosphere.

A fantastic nursery, lovely staff and very supportive. Great range of food and activities. Lovely location. A little on the pricey side but overall my son thoroughly enjoys it.

My son is always happy and looks forward to going every day.

Food could be a little better in regards to variety.

We have been really pleased with the care and support our children have been given to settle into the nursery. Their wellbeing is thought about carefully and staff have been sensitive to their basic needs. (Sleep, hunger, health) and responded to them individually and on a day to day basis. It is fantastic that the food is cooked on site and so far the children are enjoying this. The outside space is fantastic and we can look forward to the summer when they can spend more time outside.

My son only started a month ago as I was returning to work and I'm so pleased with how well he is doing at Bear's House. Everyone is so friendly and reassuring when my son gets upset when I leave. I love that it's very important to the nursery that the children spend as much time as they can outside (in good weather) - Thank you.
