Busy Bees in Wanstead Village

My daughter absolutely loves her nursery. The staff genuinely care and are so tentative. We drop her off every day with total peace of mind she is in the best hands. We’re so lucky to have found this nursery in our local area.

My daughter has been attending Little Bear's Wanstead Village since April and she has loved every session. The staff are so helpful and friendly and are wonderful with the children and took time to settle my daughter in to suit her needs. The rooms are big and the location is in a lovely area. We receive updates throughout the day on our daughter and I would highly recommend this nursery.

I sent my son at 7 months to Little Bear's. The staff are so welcoming and kind and really put me at ease with the transition to nursery. My son absolutely loves going twice a week and I love receiving the updates on the parent app so I can see what he’s been up to. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone in the area it’s a really warm, nurturing happy environment.

I now have my second child here who is in the baby room. Considering she is a Covid baby with little interaction with others, the staff have been amazing in helping her grow in confidence. She has an active day with outside play and inside sensory activities, learning through song and different types of play as well. They help her to eat and always comfort her if she is anxious. I am so happy with the progress she is making and that is due to the the staff there.

I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent, the staff are second to none and I am confident of the facilities, daily activities and overall care for my son.

My now 5 year old attended Little Bears from age 2-4 and we loved it so much that now our nearly 2 year old has been attending since he was 9 months old. We love the family friendly feel and know that our little bubs is in safe hands. In the mornings he actually waits by the front door to go to nursery and his face lights up when I talk about the team and his friends he’ll be seeing that day. We are very lucky to have found Little Bears and really appreciate everyone there.

The rooms are all so spacious with plenty of activities to keep our little ones busy.

I would recommend the nursery and am very grateful for my son that this was the nursery we chose when looking around them almost 3 years ago.

My daughter started at Little Bears in May - being a lockdown baby I was worried about her settling in but it has been a dream she absolutely loves it at the nursery. Her carers have been amazing with her and she is always excited to go in. I could not recommend this place enough - thank you.

My son has attended Little Bear's for the last couple of years. The staff are fantastic - cordial, patient and friendly. The facilities are great as well - large nursery rooms and a big garden with a variety of activities and toys. They offer an app/website for parents where updates are posted. My son has significantly improved his social skills at Little Bear's. Highly recommend!

Our daughter has been at little bears since she was one. She’s loved the different rooms and made lots of friends. The staff are very kind and good with the children. I will now be sending my second child to the nursery as well as we’ve had such a great experience.

A wonderful nursery that both our sons enjoy very much. The staff are caring, friendly and approachable should any issues arise, which they rarely do. The nursery has been great throughout the pandemic.

My daughter has been attending here since she was nine months old and the care, support and learning environment is outstanding. She thrives in the setting and absolutely loves it there! I’d recommend it to anyone and everyone!

Exceptionally well organised and very friendly bunch of child care professionals at all levels. A very clear sense of pride in everything they do. Most importantly Little Miss loves it and bounces out the door every morning looking forward to seeing her key workers.

Both of my children have attended (and the youngest still attends) this setting. All the staff take great care and form amazing bonds with the children. Thank you for your hard work, support and energy.

Since moving to London in 2017 my daughter has progressed through Little Bears, starting in the baby room, she will be finishing next month in the “big girls” room. The staff are wonderful, from the room and office staff to the cleaners & kitchen staff, everyone is friendly and genuinely seem happy in their work. I visited several nursery’s before I found Little Bears, as soon as I was shown around I knew both my daughter and I would be very happy in this setting, and that hasn’t changed. I would recommend Little Bears to anyone looking for supportive, inclusive childcare where they can trust their child is in good hands. My daughter, now 4 and ready for school has been taught so many important early years skills while at Little Bears, and most importantly at the beginning and end of each day, she has a huge smile on her face. We will very much miss everyone here.

The staff are so amazing and helpful. They are always professional and friendly, always giving feedback regarding my son's progress and address any concerns I may have. I couldn’t ask for a better team of people to look after my son.

My son has been at this nursery since he was 11 months. It’s a fantastic nursery and all the staff are absolutely brilliant! They’ve been really good during the pandemic, which is a massive reassurance to any parent. We are moving out of the area and Little Bear’s will be sorely missed by our family.

My son has been attending this nursery for over 18 months. He leaves for school next month and I am heartbroken. This nursery is his extended family. They look after him like I do and every day he comes home talking about something new. The communication between myself and the nursery is frequent and if anything happens I get informed. There is an app where you get sent snippets of what they have eaten and what they are doing along with regular assessment reports. The nursery have helped me with his development not only at nursery but also at home. Due to their open door policy, I am able to pop by the office and ask questions and seek guidance without being judged.

The love and attention that my daughter receives not only from her key worker (who is wonderful) but every carer in her room has been exemplary. The management team is second to none and go out of their way to support each child any way they can. I would recommend Little Bear’s every time.
