Bear and Bunny Nursery and Pre-school

:)

If you're looking for a nursery, I would highly recommend this one you will not be disappointed, from one happy Mum.

Those first few sessions that I had to leave her were very emotional but the team in the baby suite were amazing, they kept in touch and made me feel at ease. My daughter instantly loved them all. No one really wants to leave their children but leaving them at Bear and Bunny is easy in comparison to other nurseries. Great people throughout the nursery, in all the age respective rooms, office and kitchen staff who all genuinely love your children. Gorgeous rural location but modern ways to keep you up to date with your children’s activities via their app which is a lovely touch and they really do keep them occupied with amazing indoor and outdoor activities.

I returned to work when my daughter was 7 months old, we had looked at several nurseries but Bear and Bunny felt right. The staff are all so lovely and my little girl loves going there. She does so much more than I would be able to do with her at home. I would recommend Bear and Bunny to anyone.

I couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery. All of the team at Bear and Bunny take great pride in their jobs and provide a wonderful environment for the children in their care. From the fabulous home-cooked meals, toddler cooking sessions, painting, reading tree (for parents to take books home and enjoy with their children) and playing year-round in the great gardens, there seems to be something for everyone. The staff always seem to have a smile on their faces and the children always seem very happy. My son runs in every morning to play with his friends and at the end of each day loves telling me about the fun he's had there. The updates through the ParentZone app often make me jealous throughout the day as I see the photos, read about the lovely meals he's enjoying and the nice long nap.

In a word, Bear and Bunny nurseries is simply amazing. We introduced our baby girl into the nursery when she was just four months old on a flexible pattern to accommodate mine and my wife’s work. She was a little unsettled at first but we worked with the staff over several visits to settle her. Now she is just over one year old and she absolutely loves being at nursery. We love that the nursery provides a variety of meals freshly prepared every day, take the children out to play outside and provide regular updates and photos of what our baby has been up to. We have built a great relationship with the staff who are always professional and supportive with an energetic and bubbly attitude. I would highly recommend Bear and Bunny Nursery to anyone.

The staff provide regular updates through a website so I can see how my son is getting on and this also includes a weekly observation with photos showing how he is developing against key stages. I could not be happier with the place I have chosen for my son as it definitely provides a nurturing environment which is helping him grow into a happy and sociable child.

Both my children have attended and gained so much from this nursery. It is a really homely and caring environment where the staff will always go the extra mile for both children and parents. On so many occasions, staff have done something special for us which is what makes this so much more than the average nursery as the staff genuinely care. I love that the children spend so much time outside and are allowed to learn predominantly through child-led free play rather than constrictive academically driven learning. My children's confidence in their own abilities has increased and their naturally inquisitive minds have been nurtured so that their passion for learning and exploring has grown. Parents are also provided with snippets of their child's activities and conversations through the regularly posted observations which gives you a lovely insight into your child's behaviour and thoughts when you are not around. This is a very special nursery!

A very impressive nursery providing a wonderfully warm and nurturing environment for your little person. Good communication with parents via the parental portal and thorough daily handover. The meals are delicious and freshly cooked on the premises with seasonal menus. There is a fantastic outdoor environment and plenty of learning opportunities to allow your child to develop in their own time. The location of this nursery really sets it apart from the rest with the surrounding woods being used for buggy outings/trail walks for the younger children and Forest School for the older ones.

My daughter is now 3 and has been attending Bear and Bunny since she was 8 months old. Being a first time Mum I was naturally having mother's guilt of going back to work and leaving my baby at a Nursery but I am so glad we did. Bear and Bunny has become such an important and positive part of her life. The nurturing setting and staff have helped shape her to be the social, inquisitive, helpful and happy little girl she has become. She is always excited to go and see the staff and her friends at preschool. Alongside the rooms in which the children can free play they also offer a wide range of activities such as Forest school, cookery sessions, craft activities and music classes. The staff are brilliant with the children and encourage them to spend as much time exploring the vast garden and outdoor equipment as possible. Bear and Bunny provide healthy and tasty meals and snacks for the children and cater to individual dietary requirements. I can't recommend Bear and Bunny enough.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Bear and Bunny.

I love Bear and Bunny! The staff are incredible, engaging and energetic. My daughter has been going since she was a baby and loves it too. Working full time, it's hard leaving your child, but they give me confidence knowing she is in safe hands, plus they do the most amazing activities! She has fun every day!

A wonderful nursery and pre school. My son has attended since he was 1 year old. I felt such ease leaving my child when I had to return to work. The atmosphere is lovely and the staff do an amazing job.

He particularly loves Forest School and the activities he takes part in. It is well organised and supervised and a safe and happy environment, wish we had found this gem ages ago.

I cannot recommend highly enough.
