Review from Becky S (Mother of Child) published on 13 May 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

All staff go above and beyond to care for my child. She is excited to go to nursery and talks about her friends and the staff that care for her constantly. My daughter always comes out with a smile on her face, which reinforces the fact that she’s had a fabulous day. The staff are friendly, caring and always give me a detailed account of her day.

Review from Kayleigh B (Mother of Child) published on 24 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son absolutely loves going to this nursery.
He always has such wonderful fun.
The staff are amazing and so caring. They are hugely supportive, not only to the children but to the parents also. They are very understanding and very approachable.
They have helped him grow and develop new skills that he was previously struggling with.
I love it when he comes home singing new songs or new words that he has learnt that day.
He always comes home with a big smile on his face.
He really enjoys all the fun play and activities they do, as well as the lovely food they get each day.

Just such a wonderful, happy environment for him to learn, play and make friends.

Overall Experience
Both my son and daughter attend Nuffy Bears, they love it. They have come on leaps and bounds. They talk about their days regularly and always come out happy.
Both myself and my partner are key workers and were so glad to have had the support of Nuffy’s!
- Due to the area in which I work we were given free childcare during the first lockdown, which helped us immeasurably.

We are so overwhelmingly grateful to all the staff there who look after our babies with care, compassion and with a smile, despite being in the midst of a pandemic!

A very inclusive and welcoming nursery.
They really care about the children and their development.

Open the whole of lockdown for key and some essential workers, with excellent covid measures in place.

Review from Esther O (Mother of Child) published on 15 September 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Gloucester is just wonderful! The staff are amazing; they are qualified, caring, engaged and committed to the children they are responsible for. Our son has been with them from 6 months old and is now 2 and a half years old - and he just loves it there. He has learned so much and this is a testament to the effort the team put in.

My review is that Nuffy Bear Gloucester is excellent in all areas; but a ‘good’ for outdoor space, which they are limited to - but have done the best with what they have and I know the children do love to play outside there.

Review from Chloe K (Mother of Child) published on 2 September 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son's been attending Nuffy Bear Nursery since he was 3-months-old and it’s very clear to see how much he enjoys it. Seeing how he has developed and learned within the nursery is amazing to see. All the staff are fantastic, and my son has a great bond with them all. He is always happy at drop-off and pick-up, and I know that he is having fun from start to finish. He always has a wide variety of foods, which I am always made aware of. The nursery helps with his learning and development even from a young age. He is so confident with people and other children, and Nuffy Bear Nursery is to thank with this. Fantastic place and would highly recommend.

Overall Experience

Such a friendly and welcoming nursery. All staff go out their way to help the children settle in. I feel I have been supported by all the staff when I felt my child was being difficult. The nursery offers great opportunities for the children to develop and its a great peace of mind knowing my child is having fresh cooked healthy meals.

Review from Aisha M (Mother of Child) published on 15 October 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I chose Nuffy Bear nursery because of how much it values encouraging individuality and a child's ability to discover the world in their own way.

I have been more than impressed with my child's development both socially and practically, the activities that are organised, the feedback provided to myself as a parent and the consistency between my child and their key worker.

There is also an interest in the child's development, lifestyle, routine and activities outside of nursery which encourages a more fluid approach between nursery and home.

My son loves going to nursery. He recently had his birthday and the nursery were very accommodating, allowing me to take in a cake and a few games making it feel like a party to my son. He gets on very well with the other children and the staff as they are all so friendly and professional.

Overall Experience
Nuffy Bear, Gloucester is a very friendly place and environment.

We have been very happy with their approach to childcare, the benefits on offer and flexibility on sessions and bookings.

A good bunch of staff and children have a huge access of opportunities.

It's a great feeling knowing that my child is very happy in his environment at Nursery. He is becoming a confident little man. The team at Nuffy Gloucester really know the children as individuals.

Reply from Henrietta McGourty, Social Media Executive at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Gloucester

Thank you Becky for this fantastic feedback on our Nuffy Bear Day Nursery. We are pleased to hear that your son is happy with us and that you are confident of his happiness while he is in our care, that is so important to us. Kind regards

Overall Experience

Nuffy Bear was a new nursery when our daughter started, there were a few teething problems. But now it is fantastic. My favourite thing is now they treat the children as individuals not 'clients'. They are also very chilled about chopping and changing hours never a quibble. My daughter loves going there,

The nursery has a great set up for all the ages of children it accommodates. Lots of new and current equipment and toys for the children to interact with.

As a family that has relocated to the area, the staff have been friendly and caring and most of all they have made my daughter feel at ease going to nursery.
