Review from Rafay K (Father of Child) published on 19 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 3-year-old girl switched from another nursery. We choose Ambourne Day House based on a few simple factors; space (inside and outside), reasonable pricing and the staff. We had been shown around all over the nursery, met the teachers and we really like the activity timetable for kids. After joining the nursery she just loved it, the teachers are amazing and become a part of our daily routine as my girl keeps talking about her time in the nursery. There are a lot of good things to mention; the daily updates from teachers, the big open playing garden (the lovely slide too), teacher's focus and interaction to individuals, the care in food (my daughter eats veg/halal-only), role-playing and little puzzles. We would sincerely like to thank all the teachers and management for their efforts in playing an important role in shaping my girl's foundation stage. She has now started the school and her reception teacher already consider her a valued member of their class. We wish Ambourne a great success!

Review from Leila T (Mother of Child) published on 19 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter, who is now 6, used to attend this nursery and she loved it. So I knew that it would be the right place for my son, and I was right. He is 15 months old and is starting to enjoy his time and thrive at Ambourne House. This is all thanks to the hard work and dedication of the staff in the Tadpole Room.

I know that he will continue to flourish into the preschool and, just like my daughter, will remember Ambourne fondly for years to come.

Reply from Preena Patel, at Ambourne House Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your kind words Leila, it's so special for us to have parents return to Ambourne. We will strive to do everything possible to ensure your son continues to flourish during his time with us!

Review from Jessica J (Mother of Child) published on 31 October 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have moved my little boy through two nurseries so far. When we found Ambourne it was a blessing. My son settled in fine, you can see the staff truly do try their hardest every day.
My son has settled in so well, he's more confident and is very very happy.

I wish we had found the nursery sooner.

Reply from Preena Patel, at Ambourne House Day Nursery

Thank you very much for your kind words! It's been such a pleasure watching your son develop into such a confident boy!

Review from Louise A (Mother of Child) published on 30 October 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My three year old daughter and one year old son both come to Ambourne House Day Nursery in Patchway. We switched from another nursery that we weren't happy with and were a little anxious when we first visited Ambourne as we weren't sure what to expect, given our first experience. We were shown around by the Manager and we instantly knew we were in the right place.

We had a tour of the whole nursery and all the staff were welcoming and friendly. We had no hesitation in booking our children into the nursery. They have both been really happy so far and are well looked after. The staff in their respective rooms are really helpful and we get regular updates on how the children are doing. Could not recommend Ambourne House highly enough.

Review from Joe Y (Father of Child) published on 29 October 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a worried dad, I could not ask for a better nursery for my daughter! Not only are the staff so caring, attentive and knowledgeable; the nursery itself has been extremely stimulating for her.

The manager has a real passion for Montessori which really shows when looking around the nursery. The whole team have been so accommodating to us and we are so grateful to have found a nursery we feel confident in leaving our daughter with.

Reply from Preena Patel, at Ambourne House Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your kind words Joe! We are so pleased to know that you feel so confident in the care we provide. It's a pleasure having your family with us and we will continue to do what we can to make you sure you and your little girl's memories of Ambourne are the happiest.

Review from Jodie B (Mother of Child) published on 22 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My two daughters aged 6 and 2 have attended Ambourne House and both have loved the nursery, as do we! All staff are really friendly, approachable and accommodating, particularly the staff within the tadpole and frog room (where my youngest daughter is at present) - they show a real interest in the children and what they get up to outside of nursery as well as planning fun and challenging activities each and every day. I have seen some real improvements in the nursery over the last 12 months and particularly love the attention given to the needs of individual children, the regular use of tapestry and the opportunity to attend the nursery when they have external providers/activities for the children. My daughter is really happy at Ambourne House.

Overall Experience
We are very happy with the care our son has received in Ambourne House for the last 3 years. We like the balance of indoor and outdoor time with activities like forest school making the most of the lovely big garden.
The team is nice and professional. The activities are tailored to match the interests of the children which keeps them engaged and keen to learn.

Our son loves going there.

Overall Experience

Thank you Ambourne House Day Nursery staff for everything. My son stayed in nursery for almost 3 years. It has always been a pleasure for my son to come to nursery and learn new things. He started school this year but he still remembers nursery and staff members. The Ambourne House Day Nursery provides a good childcare service.

Roberta Ferri Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2019
Roberta Ferri

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!

Sarah Bennett Job Title: Deputy Nursery Manager Joined: 2020
Sarah Bennett

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.

Katie Harris Job Title: Floor leader and third in charge Joined: 2023
Katie Harris

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!
