Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

My son attends this nursery and they have exceeded every expectation I have for a nursery. I trust the staff implicitly, they are the epitome of kind, caring, compassionate and honest. My son thrives in this environment and he has been attending for the last 8 months. My son has experienced seizures and the nursery's risk assessment and standards make me feel safe to leave him in their capable hands. I would recommend this nursery to everyone. I'm thankful I was able to get a place for him here. I must have viewed every nursery in Gloucester and I really feel I have found the best of the best.
Thank you so much for your kind words, the staff and I very much appreciate your feedback.

This is a great nursery with the best staff. We have been to three other nurseries and i can tell you that this is probably the best nursery in Gloucester. The staff is very friendly and the kids are well taken after. You can always tell ghat this us a good step up from how the staff look like on daily basis. The only downside is the actual premise. If only they have a bigger garden to enjoy the sun, that would be great

Key workers and all nursery practitioners give thorough handovers, so I feel they are attentive and attuned to my daughters needs. They provide lots of varied activities to support learning and development, and creativity. Nursery practitioners and manager Kelly have been supportive and absolutely amazing throughout. The environment has a lovely feel to it, which is indicative of friendly, caring staff and happy children! All rooms have felt comfortable and safe.
We were recommended by a friend to consider Nuffy Bear who spoke highly of their experience for their son and I can say it's clear the nursery continues to provide excellent quality of care and support for children and families. It's so lovely to see our daughter thriving and happy going to nursery. We can't thank everyone at Nuffy Bear enough for looking after our daughter and us as first time parents
Emillie thankyou so much for the lovely review, we appreciate you taking the time to complete this and value your feedback.

Our daughter started at Nuffy Bear when she was just 9 months old and will soon be moving on to preschool. We have been incredibly happy with the care and support she has received throughout her time there.
The staff have always been friendly, caring, and genuinely invested in her development. They created a nurturing environment where she felt safe, happy, and confident to learn and grow.
We were particularly grateful for the support the team provided with her speech development. Their patience, encouragement, and communication with us made a real difference, and we have seen her confidence and communication skills flourish.
It has been wonderful to watch our daughter build strong relationships with the staff and enjoy coming to nursery each day. We are very thankful to everyone at Nuffy Bear for the care, support, and dedication they have shown to our family, and we would highly recommend the nursery to other parents.
Thank you so much for the lovely review, I appreciate your kind words.
Absolutely incredible. My daughter has been coming since she was 1, and the amount of care and attention put into her individually is incredible. She gets home cooked meals every day and the activities are tailored for what she needs to grow.

We've had a wonderful experience with this nursery. The staff are incredibly caring, welcoming, and genuinely invested in every child's wellbeing and development. What has stood out the most is their excellent communication-they always keep us updated, share what our child has been doing, and are happy to discuss any questions or concerns. It's so reassuring knowing our child is in such a safe, happy, and nurturing environment. We couldn't be happier with the care they provide and would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a place where their child will thrive.

My little boy is very content whilst walking through the doors to nursery and it's great that he talks about his time there in such a happy way. His confidence has really grown since starting at the nursery and this was something we noticed was a consistent theme with all the children when we first went to a settle session - so lovely to see!
The communication is great and the staff are consistent - this is a completely different experience to the previous nursery my child attended and has allowed me to relax in complete confidence that my child is being looked after properly.
Overall the nursery has exceeded my expectations in all areas and we are so chuffed with them! Our only regret is that we didn't start with Nuffy Bear from the beginning and with my eldest daughter too.
Thank you so much for your lovely review, I am thrilled to hear you are happy with the care we provide to your family, it is a pleasure to care for you little one.

My son has been attending Nuffy Bear since 8 months old (now 19 months). He loves going three days a week and runs into nursery as soon as the gates open and he sees his key worker. He was ill a lot in his first 6 months there and I'm not sure if this is normal for nursery as my older child went to a childminder. They seem to have extremely strict illness guidelines that I wasnt used to, and I understand why but it's very frustrating as a parent. I did consider moving him because of this but glad I kept him there now as he's really happy and all the staff are lovely. They managed his transition to the toddler room really well and overall I'm very happy.

Our daughter has been at Nuffy Bear Nursery since she was a few months old. She has always enjoyed going to in as the staff are child-centred and seek to provide enriching activities throughout every day. Our daughter has been able to grow in a caring and supportive environment. The team are always welcoming and the app gives us factual details about toileting, sleep and food intake which is helpful. The menu is varied, nutritious and healthy. Throughout the year there are opportunities for parents to attend theme days at the nursery, which is a lovely way to see our child interacting with the adults who care for her. Highly recommend this nursery.

The facilities are great, the food is healthy and varied. My children come home happy and I couldn't ask for any more. The activities provided are diverse and challenge my children in a safe and nurturing environment. Very happy, and would definitely recommend it.

My daughter has been attending Nuffy Bear Nursery since September last year. Every member of staff made us feel very welcome and my daughter loves being there. Communication between the staff and parents is second to none. Management and the other staff members are always keeping you updated with the latest information and how well your child is getting on while being there. The variety of activities throughout each day are well thought through and I couldn't be more appreciative of all the staff that make the effort to meet all of my child's needs. I feel my daughter's welfare and safety is paramount to all staff and as a parent, I couldn't ask for much more from a nursery setting.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review Nuffy Bear with your lovely comments. We really appreciate your feedback.

Although anxious at first as to how she would react/cope without us, and being in an unfamiliar environment, we were quickly put at ease with the friendly, caring faces of the staff and it didn't take long before the tears at drop off and pick up were a distant memory.
Nuffy Bear Nursery have allowed our daughter to grow and develop in the most wonderful way, and it's a joy to watch her personality and confidence blossom, as she makes more friends and learns skills she wouldn't necessarily get if she was just at home with us.
Thank you for your feedback, we are so pleased you are happy with the service we provide your family at Nuffy Bear.

We moved our daughter here from another setting and she has flourished in this new environment. She's grown so much in confidence and it's been lovely to see. The staff have been brilliant with helping her settle in and bringing her out of her shell - it feels like they've taken the time to get to know her and her needs. As a parent, I am comfortable asking any questions I need to and trust I'll get any help that's needed.
Thank you for the lovely comments, We value and appreciate your feedback.
