All staff are warm and welcoming, and you can tell how much they love all the children who walk through the door.
As much as my son is doing amazingly at school, I still miss him being at Bluebell.
Honestly cannot recommend this nursery enough.
Thank you for your lovely feedback about our nursery setting. It is great to hear how your little one is doing well at school. I will pass on all your kind words to the staff team.
I could not ask for a better nursery for her! The staff are absolutely incredible and she runs in every morning with a big smile on her face ready to spend the day with her friends!
They are always busy doing fun and educational activities whether it be painting in the toddler room, playing in the nursery grounds or visiting the local shops and library!
Thank you for your lovely review about our nursery setting. It is great to hear how your little one can't wait to spend the day with her friends. I will pass on your positive feedback to the staff team.
My little boy has been going to Bluebell Nursery from baby room he's grown up there and loves going. He sees all the staff as his family and loves all his friends. He's very bright and loves to learn and I know that is the help from the staff at Bluebell.
Thank you for your lovely review about our nursery setting. It is lovely to hear that your little one sees the staff team as his extended family. I will pass on your kind comments to the staff team.
We love story time and talking about the book we have read, I also know nursery implement this too.
I'm kept up to date with her day via the app.
It is definitely one of the best, if not the best, nursery in the area. If I could keep my little girl there forever I sure would.
Team Bluebell always.
Although my child sometimes gets upset going into class in the morning she has always got the biggest smile on her face when I pick her up. She enjoys all the activities and feels comfortable with all the teachers. I feel happy and at ease knowing my child is safe and happy when she is there.
Cannot fault the nursery's staff or environment. My son has come on leaps and bounds since starting and he loves going. The staff bend over backwards for him making sure his needs are met at all times. Thank you, everyone.
Children go on regular days out and have access to a huge outdoor space which my daughter loves.
I was so impressed with the level of care both my girls received whilst they attended Bluebell Lodge nursery. The staff were all so friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble. My girls gained so much confidence and knowledge and have grown to be so very happy and confident girls which I credit to a fantastic start at nursery.
We are so happy with the nursery, the staff are so friendly, welcoming and really supportive. They go above and beyond and we couldn't ask for more. My little boy has so many opportunities when he is at nursery, he has learnt so much. The meals are also really nice and he eats a lot more at nursery than he does at home. Thank you to everyone what a fantastic nursery with amazing staff!
My daughter has been very happy at Bluebell Lodge and has developed amazingly well with the help of all the staff. We have good and bad days when we arrive but the staff are brilliant at encouraging her into the room and making her feel safe on the bad days. My daughter has made lots of friends and always talks about them outside of nursery. I'm always being kept up to date during the day with all activities and food that she has or hasn't eaten. I would not recommend any other nursery.
We cannot thank Kids Planet Bluebell Lodge enough. They have worked alongside us with our gentle parenting and let our son do things at his own pace which has worked wonders. They have always been there to support us. The children’s days are filled with fun and laughter and so much thought goes into the different activities that are set up for the children. They are extremely privileged to have a forest school teacher and they spend lots of time outside in the extensive garden. My child couldn’t be happier and supported, and the same for us as parents. A wonderful, wonderful place for your children to be loved and nurtured.
My daughter has been to Bluebell for about 10 months now. I'm happy with everything they did. Took a bit of time for her to settle, but now she absolutely loves to go. She has developed her language communication really well, with a very good manner, and lots of activities they have every single day. Definitely recommend to any parents.
Amazing nursery. My son attends 2 days a week and absolutely loves it! He has great bonds with all the staff and has such a fun time while learning. I feel at ease leaving him there with all the staff knowing he is well taken care of.
Excellent nursery very professional at all times. My child has been at the nursery from a very young age, I was very nervous, the relationship with the nursery and staff help me with my compassion in my work career and I opened my own business. I could not have carried on without nursery, I had lots of medical appointments with my child and nursery and all the staff were always there to help. My child has made lots of friends in the nursery and lots of Aunties and Uncles. My child has made lots of friends and is ready for next stage of primary school and hopefully, most of his nursery family will be joining his next journey in life. Thank you, Bluebell Lodge. You are all a stars.
Fantastic nursery! Daughter is really enjoying and is coming on so well. Always doing different things and bringing home things she's made. Staff are excellent and friendly. Very supportive!
My daughter has attended the setting since she was eight months old (almost three now), leaving your child is such a hard thing to do as a parent. The staff here couldn't have put my mind at ease anymore. My child even asks for the staff when not in nursery! They really do a great job looking after her and making her feel so safe and secure it's unbelievable. Nothing is too much to ask of them, from following her dietary needs, routine, behaviour, they have helped her grow into the confident, intelligent, funny little girl she is now. I love being able to see what she has been doing and all the fun activities she gets up to at nursery via their new app and it shows me how/where her development is at and what I can do support it! Can't thank the women and men here enough it really is a great nursery and definitely would recommend to friends.
As a parent, I have been very happy with this nursery. My Son has progressed well in the care of Bluebell Lodge since going at 9 months old and he continues to be happy there. His well-being has always been a priority to all of the staff who have cared for him and the activities and opportunities he has at the nursery have encouraged his development. I am always well informed and involved as a parent and would recommend the nursery to others.
My son has been at Bluebell Lodge Nursery since he was about four months old, and I have never had a problem with them. The nursery and all the staff within are wonderful and always put 100% into looking after my son and all the other children there. He has progressed so much and I always get comments on how good his speech is at 18 months old and I believe this is due to the nursery and the work they do with him. He never fails to amaze me, he knows things I've not taught him such as what the green man is and what it does on traffic lights. I wouldn't change his nursery even if somebody paid me.
On our visit, we met the lovely manager who was very welcoming and friendly and answered the many questions we had! We looked around the rooms relevant to our son. The staff and the children both looked happy and enthusiastic and made us feel welcome. We got a very homely feel from Bluebell Lodge and decided that was the Nursery for us!
Since starting nursery all of the staff have been fantastic with him they’ve brought him on in his development and speech. My son does a lot of activities outside with nursery that I love, he’s been to a variety of places including the park and the sea life centre. My child loves this nursery and all of the people who care for him whilst he is there he never wants to come home.

Meet the Team (1)
My name is Nicole Trafford. I have worked at Bluebell Lodge since May 2014. In that time, I have worked my way up from Early Years Practitioner to Room Leader, Third in Charge, and Deputy Manager, and I have finally achieved my goal of becoming a Nursery Manager in December 2024.
I have a little girl called Forrest, who also attends Bluebell Lodge Nursery, so I am very grateful to be able to still see her whilst I work Monday to Thursday.
In my spare time, I like to make memories with my daughter, as well as go for long walks in the Lake District with my partner, Forrest and our Cavapoo Luna. I also love baking, especially baking cookies and decorating birthday cakes for my friends and family.
