Review from Chelsea L (Mother of Child) published on 15 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has attended Bambinos since April this year and she has complex needs and is unable to communicate verbally. However, the staff at Bambinos have welcomed her into the fold with no issues at all. All the staff are amazing and welcoming if you have a child with needs or are just worried about putting little ones into nursery.

Honestly, this is the best nursery! There's a lovely garden at the back and they get out there as much as possible. My daughter is always welcomed at the door in the morning with open arms and excitement by the girls. My daughter has come on in leaps and bounds with other children too. My daughter has become very attached to a particular staff member who is now her key worker! He's brilliant with all the children.I know some people aren't always sure about a male in the nursery setting but honestly mums this nursery is winning on all fronts. My daughter is thriving and I urge anyone who's looking into joining Bambinos Tavistock nursery! Go for it you won't regret it.

My girls have both attended here and still do. I was new to the area and they’ve settled so well. Very understanding of our circumstances. Both girls have separation anxiety and I can trust that they will be happy after drop off, with all the attentive staff.

This nursery/preschool is a gem! Everyone is so lovely and takes great care of my children. Even if they struggle and don’t want to go in, they always make sure they have a great day. Lovely setting with a big garden. Couldn’t praise the team enough.

Review from S F (Mother of Child) published on 3 April 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child was a lockdown baby and the nursery has been great at bringing her out of her shell and helping her socialise.
She has made good friendships and tells us that she enjoys the activities on offer.
Of the issues we’ve had, most have been rectified.
The nursery is far more expensive than competitors in the local area, but the staff are knowledgeable, creative and really care about the children.

Staff turnover is high, and we sometimes get conflicting feedback about our child’s day leaving us concerned we are not getting the full picture, but generally, we know our daughter is happy and well cared for.

I cannot praise the team at Bambino’s high enough for the way they care for and nurture my son. He absolutely loves it there and wakes up in the morning excited to go to the nursery to see the friends he has made and the staff who care for him.

Overall Experience

Both my children have been to Bambinos in Tavistock. The staff are wonderful. They truly care about the children and make sure they are not just playing, but learning through play. They care about their emotional, social and academic development and they always make it fun. I also love that the children always get outside to play and learn, even when the weather is rubbish.

Review from C C (Mother of Child) published on 20 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our two-year-old has only been attending for a short while but has come so far already in his few weeks at Bambino's. He is becoming more confident, has learned so much more and his speech has come on leaps and bounds. This was his first experience in a childcare setting but Bambinos have really made him feel really welcome and settled in so well. We were quite anxious prior to his start date, but Bambinos have been amazing and a huge relief to see him so happy and content at the end of the day.

Review from Elizabeth M (Mother of Child) published on 19 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As a parent, I don't believe there is anything quite so heartwarming (and reassuring) than seeing the love and care that the staff dedicates to our children. I also don't believe children are very good liars, so my son's affection towards the staff at Bambino's is a testament to how safe he feels around them. He is growing up to be a very confident little man, he is kind, he is chatty, he is interested and I know the part Bambinos is playing in that development. My deepest gratitude to them for looking after what is most precious to me, I could not wish for a better place for my little one to be.

Overall Experience

My son has come on so much with his development since he started Bambinos. When he started 12 months ago, he could barely walk or talk - he is now a confident little chatterbox, running around all over the place. He always comes home super happy and the staff are amazing. I love the breakdown of what he's been up to each day.

Can't praise Bambinos Tavistock enough my son has come on leaps and bounds with all their support I have seen such a change in his confidence and willingness in trying new things. They have definitely helped him get ready for the next stage in education. Best decision we made sending him to Bambinos.

Overall Experience

My 18-month-old daughter has attended Bambinos Tavistock since I returned to work when she was 10 months old, She absolutely loves going there and walks in like it's a second home. I was a little nervous at first having previously used a childminder for my son, but she is so confident and happy, I really couldn't be happier with the staff and service that is given. It is like one big family there. Thank you!

My daughter loves Bambinos, she's really come out of her shell since starting 6 months ago. Her language and social skills have grown so much. The staff are all so caring and professional, I feel she's in such good hands at Bambino's. Lots of outdoor play, songs, books, friendships and yummy food - I'm thrilled we send her here! Highly recommend.

Overall Experience

Really pleased with Bambino’s Tavistock. The staff have made my son feel welcome and safe. He has grown so much in confidence since being there and is starting to try new foods and engage with others more easily. I think, although only for a short while, his time at Bambino’s has been invaluable. He is excited to go there and always comes out happy. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Review from Laura R (Mother of Child) published on 17 March 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our 18-month-old daughter has been attending Bambinos twice a week since January and she absolutely loves it. As any parent knows dropping your child off at nursery hasn't always been easy but already she beams with excitement when we say we're off to Bambinos to play with our friends. When we get there no matter who opens the door to us she has both arms out to go over to them, waves and blows us a kiss and we know she is going to be OK. She has come on leaps and bounds with her speech, confidence and the way she plays. The manager, deputy manager and the girls always communicate well with us and we love the diary entries to keep us up to date on what she is getting up to. It's amazing to see all the different food she is eating, the variety is so much bigger than I had expected. We love how much time they spend outside and the little makes she brings home make our day!

Meet the Team (1)

Marni Tanfield Job Title: Manager
Marni Tanfield

Hi, I’m Marni. I began my career in early years over 10 years ago as an apprentice, also working as a 1:1 support for children with Autism. After qualifying, I progressed to Team Leader in an under-twos room before moving into a Nursery Manager role.

Following our family move to Devon, I continued my journey as a Team Leader in a 2–to 3-year room and am now proud to be Nursery Manager here in Tavistock.

I believe every child is unique, and that the early years are a vital time for developing the skills that support them throughout life. Creating a home-from-home environment where children feel safe, excited and confident to explore is at the heart of everything I do.

Outside of nursery life, I’m a mum to two young boys. As a family, we enjoy long walks with our dog, especially trips to the beach, and I love relaxing with a good book when I can.

The most rewarding part of my role is supporting both families and my team, whether that’s offering reassurance, sharing experience or celebrating achievements along the way.

I would love to welcome you to our nursery in Tavistock and show you around, so you can experience our warm and nurturing environment for yourself.
