Fantastic nursery with a family feel. We are so happy to send our child here, and drive over from the next town as it's worth it. We know that our child has really fulfilling and interesting days, well above just being supervised while we're at work. The staff come across as very caring and dedicated to their work.
Thank you so much for your kind words and lovely review. It is a pleasure looking after your little one and watching him growing is amazing.
I will pass your lovely feedback to the whole team, which I am very confident will be very appreciated.
Thank you again.
Roberta and the Ambourne family
Ambourne house are an excellent nursery, both my children have attended since 2021 until now and the care has been amazing. Firstly they have both been very happy at nursery and any minor concerns or enquiries I've ever had have been addressed quickly. Sarah and Roberta in the management team have been there throughout the whole time and are absolutely fantastic. The work they do to get children ready for school was commented on by 2 of my son's teachers who were impressed at the amazing foundation Ambourne house gave him. Thank you all so much.
Thank you for your kind words, giving our children the best foundation for school is our aim and your feedback is gratefully received.
Ambourne House is a first-rate nursery. My wife and I were deeply impressed from our first visit when deciding where to place our baby son. The nursery has exceeded our expectations in all respects. Our son is cared for wonderfully. He has developed strong, close bonds with the staff, all of whom show brilliant attention and thoughtfulness during their time with him. He is given an excellent range of foods that he enjoys and the nursery has taken him on different trips and outings, which have engaged him. We are given regular mailshots of photographs of his days in the nursery and feel so proud of the progress he is making. Thank you very much to all of the team - you do amazing work and are a gift to the community!
Thank You so much for your fabulous comments, I will share them with the whole team. We are all extremely proud of what we do and this feedback shows that what we are trying to do is working.
Cannot recommend Ambourne House enough, my boy has attended since 9 months old and he is 4 in march. Roberta, Sarah and the team care so much about the children and treat them with such care and compassion. The Montessori aspect of the nursery instils so much confidence and independence in the children. They have such a great outdoor space and a great focus on activities alongside academics. I am so grateful we chose such a lovely setting for our little boy, we love it so much our baby will also be starting later this year.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review and for your kind recommendation. We are truly grateful that your little boy has been part of Ambourne House since such a young age and it means so much to hear how positively his journey with us has been.
Your kind words about the whole...
The FAMLY app is a great way to communicate with staff, keep up to date with fees, news, events, your child's learning as well as their daily care needs e.g nappy changes/toileting, meals and how much they eat plus your child's learning observations. The extra curricular activities and real life experiences are a great touch, such as wood work, sports, music and dance activities, plus they have their very own mini bus to take children out on trips an local walks! I cannot fault this nursery, it's like a home from home. The setting is a converted home setting, it may be cosy and petite but the love and care inside it is huge!!
I will highly recommend Ambourne House to anyone who is looking for a loving childcare setting for their little one!

We've been really pleasantly surprised and impressed with the exceptionally nurturing and professional approach we've experienced since our little one started at Ambourne House a few months ago. As first time parents we were quite apprehensive about starting at nursery but all the staff made the transition incredibly smooth and easy and our daughter settled in really quickly.
The baby room staff are wonderful and incredibly warm and attentive. The regular updates and visible progress they share gives us peace of mind that she feels safe and happy there. The Montessori-inspired environment and activities they do, whether inside, in their lovely garden or out and about, all seem well thought-out to support her development in the best way, which is wonderful to see and she clearly has a great time.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a lovely and detailed review. We're truly delighted to hear that your experience at Ambourne House has been so positive, especially during those early months. We completely understand how daunting starting nursery can feel, and it...

When our daughter joined Ambourne House as a 13 month old in the baby room, she was very much attached to me almost clingy, she wont go to anyone other than her parents, she would scream at the sight of a big crowd. She was settled in very quickly and peacefully, Tina, Flora, Roxie, made sure of that. She became very independent, joyful and confident child. It's been 7 months now and she is in toddler room, every day she learns something new and her development is conspicuous. As parents, we can't recommend Ambourne House enough. I thank all of the staffs in the Nursery for taking good care of her.
thank you so much for taking the time to share such a lovely review. We are very happy to hear how smoothly your little one settled into Ambourne House and how much she has grown in confidence and independence during her time with us. I will make sure to share your kind words with the...

Best Wishes
Roberta and the Ambourne family
Choosing a nursery can feel overwhelming, but from the moment I walked into Ambourne, I knew it was the right place. The atmosphere is calm, professional, and engaging. Both of my children began their journey here at 6 months old and stayed until they started primary school. My youngest only left last week, and we were genuinely sad to say goodbye. The care, support, and love shown to both of my children have been exceptional. Roberta and Sarah are outstanding managers, and I would recommend Ambourne without hesitation.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We are truly delighted to hear that both of your children had such positive experiences at Ambourne House. We will miss your family and we wish your children every success in primary school. Thank you again.
I have nothing but wonderful things to say about our experience at Ambourne House!
We moved our son there a year ago from another local nursery, and I only wish we'd done so from the start. Our son looks forward to going every day, and is always full of smiles in the morning. The staff are incredibly professional, caring, and inclusive. He adores all the members of staff - but has a special soft spot for one member of staff in particular, who he proudly calls his best friend! The team's warmth and positivity have helped him grow so much in confidence.
The manager, is clearly highly competent, trustworthy, and always positive and has created a well-organised and welcoming environment at Ambourne House.
We're so grateful for all the care and the support they've given our son and would wholeheartedly recommend Ambourne House to any parent.
thank you so much for your amazing feedback. It is lovely to hear that you had a very positive experience with us and i will pass the message to the team. It has been a pleasure looking after your little one and we wish you all the best for his new adventure at school. Thank you again Kind Regards
Our son attended Ambourne Day Nursery for almost two years, and we couldn't be happier with the care and support he received during his time there. From the very beginning, the staff were incredibly attentive, and nurturing, creating a safe and stimulating environment that helped our son grow in confidence and independence.
The team at Ambourne clearly care deeply about the children in their care. They took the time to understand our son's personality, interests, and needs, and kept us well-informed with regular updates on his development and daily activities.
We also appreciated the variety of activities offered-from creative arts and sensory play to outdoor adventures and early learning opportunities. It's been wonderful to see how much our son has learned and developed during his time there.
We're truly grateful to everyone at Ambourne for making our son's early years.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It has been a pleasure looking after your little one and see him growing in confidence. We know that he will thrive in school. I will pass your kind message to the whole team and thank you again. Kind Regards
They also put on a lot of extra bits like sports / music / animals sessions.
Hi Tom, thank you so much for your kind words, i will share them with the whole Ambourne House team. Please feel free to pop in and see us if there is anything we can do to make your experience better.
All the staff are so friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Both our children love going to Ambourne and are always happy there.
We especially love the outside areas, the trips they go on and visitors they have in to extend their already great learning.
thank you so much for the great review. We are delighted to hear your lovely feedback and thank you for your continue support. I will pass the message to the whole team.Kind Regards
The staff at Ambourne are amazing. The attention to detail and care provided is amazing. I feel so confident leaving my child in the care of these lovely women. It's a home away from home for my child. Highly, hugely & happily recommend Ambourne to everyone.
thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful feedback. It truly means a lot to our team and we are very happy to be a part of your little one's journey.Kind Regards
I have seen my son develop in great strides since joining Ambourne. The staff genuinely care about him and you can tell they have strong relationships with all of the children. They provide an amazing environment for him to learn in, completing a diverse range of activities and providing extra curricular activities too.
Thank you so much for this brilliant feedback. I will share your comments with the whole team
The only thing that lets this place down is it does not have a separate sleeping space, half of the baby room is closed off with a room divider. It would be better for all the children if there were a separate sleeping areas with cots etc as my little one is currently sleeping in a travel cot and her naps are rubbish in nursery due to the disturbance coming from other side of the room divider. I viewed 10 different nurseries and this one was far better than the rest in terms of what they offer.
Thank you so much for your review, it is a pleasure to look after your little one and i will make sure to pass the message to the baby room team.Thank you for your feedback regarding the lack of a separate sleeping room. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us. Please...
My child attended Ambourne House for a year now and I cannot speak more highly of this nursery. The staff are caring and friendly and professional and make the effort to create a nurturing environment. They offer a range of activities to help with learning and creativity. Communication is excellent between them and myself with regular updates on how my child is getting on within nursery and developing. I love that they have special days dedicated for you to come in and do activities with your child which makes it extra special to be welcomed in. I would highly recommend ambourne house to any other parent looking for a supportive, nurturing and caring nursery for there child
Thank you so much for your very kind words. I will share them with the whole Ambourne team

Meet the Team (3)
Hello! I’m Roberta, and I joined the Ambourne House team in September 2019.
As the Nursery Manager and Designated Safeguarding Lead, I am dedicated to ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for all the children in our care.
I moved to the UK in 2011 after earning a BSc (Hons) Degree in Education. My journey began in London, where I worked as a nanny for a bilingual family. Later, I moved to Bristol and started working in a nursery preschool, where I developed a deep understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).
I have always had a passion for education, and I love to keep learning. To further enhance my skills, I studied the Montessori approach, which beautifully aligns with the national curriculum.
One of the things I love most about my role is spending time in every room of the nursery, building bonds with children of all ages through play and connection. It’s truly rewarding to see their confidence and curiosity grow each day!
Hello! I’m Sarah, and I joined Ambourne House at the beginning of January 2020.
I’ve been working in childcare for over 20 years, and I truly love what I do. Throughout my career, I’ve had the pleasure of taking on roles as both a Room Leader and Deputy Manager, gaining valuable experience along the way.
Outside of work, I love spending time with my 20-year-old daughter. Family time is really important to me!
I’m passionate about creating a warm and nurturing environment for children, and I’m always here to support both families and colleagues at Ambourne House.
Hello! I’m Katie, and I joined Ambourne House in May 2023.
I lead a dedicated and passionate team in our kindergarten and preschool, and I’m proud to be third in charge as well as the Safeguarding Lead for the nursery.
With over 20 years of experience in childcare and education, I specialize in supporting children’s speech and language development. Teaching, nurturing, and caring for children brings me so much joy, and I love watching them grow in confidence and knowledge.
I’m always here to support families and ensure the children feel happy, safe, and valued every day!
