Review from Tamara A (Mother of Child) published on 12 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I couldn't praise this nursery more if I tried!

My 2 year old daughter only started a month ago and is already thriving so much more! I was very picky about what nursery I chose as I took her out of another nursery after 1 week when she was 1 as it just wasn't right and she was very unhappy and so I was very nervous about doing it again however I feel nothing but ease when I drop her off and leave, knowing she is being well cared for. Although she still hates leaving me, as it's still early days, within 1 minute, she's running around, talking to others and playing and it very clear to see she is very happy and comfortable there.

All the staff are so kind and friendly, extremely knowledgable in childcare and always give me a very thorough hand over when I go and collect her. It's a busy nursery and they work so hard and genuinely love to look after our babies.

I feel like I'm winning because I've chosen the best nursery!

Overall Experience

As a parent, I couldn't be happier with the care my 2-year-old son has received at this nursery over the past three months. The progress he has made in such a short time has been incredible - he has truly come on in leaps and bounds.

The staff create such a warm, nurturing, and engaging environment, which has made settling in so much easier for both of us. Megan, the room leader, is absolutely amazing with my little boy. She is so patient, caring, and clearly passionate about what she does. It's reassuring to see how well she understands the children and supports their development.
Amy, the nursery manager, is also fantastic. She is always friendly, approachable, and clearly committed to maintaining such a high standard of care and learning within the nursery.

It gives me great peace of mind knowing my son is happy, supported, and thriving every day he attends. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and stimulating environment for their child.

Review from Charlotte C (Mother of Child) published on 27 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter started in October 2025, it was a bit of a rocky start as she had come from a childminder who couldn't give her the attention she needed. However, here we are 4 month down the line and it's a completely different situation. She is absolutely thriving at Mama Bear's and we are so happy with how she has progressed.
The staff are absolutely fantastic and I cannot praise them enough, they're friendly, kind and always welcoming at the door for handover. I cannot stress enough how much this nursery has helped our daughters progression, and it is down to the wonderful people who work here.

The best choice we've made for childcare for our daughter and we cannot thank you enough!

Overall Experience
Our daughter attends Bridgwater Mama Bears and is now in 'Bouncies'. She loves going to nursery and spending time with her friends, but she also loves taking things into nursery to show her key worker.

All of the staff that we have had an interaction with have been incredible and we feel that we made the very best choice in selecting Mama Bears.

We absolutely love Mamma Bear Nursery in Bridgwater. It is by far the best.

Maddie and the team in babies are so loving and caring, attentive to your child's needs. Sienna is growing very much in their day-to-day care.

The nursery has a hole is absolutely fantastic and you could not go wrong by sending your child there.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Mama Bears since she was 9 months old, and is currently in the Bouncy room (2 years room). She is thriving and is loving nursery, she has built strong relationships with all the staff throughout the nursery. All the staff at Mama bears are welcoming upon arrival/pick up, always being greeted with a hello and smiles throughout the building. I get to hear about my daughter's day at pick up but also through the app, seeing pictures and updates throughout her nursery day.

Overall Experience

Lovely nursery, the staff go above and beyond to provide the best care for every child. I have two children at the nursery - one in the baby room and one in the pre-school room and both of them are really happy at Mama Bears Nursery. My eldest has SEN needs and the manager sat with me in order to put a risk assessment into place for him as soon as we started. We are very happy with the care they have received and I feel my children have had their interests broadened, along with improved confidence and social skills.

Overall Experience
After 6 months at the nursery, my little girl has got so much from her time there. The staff in the baby room are fantastic, know her so well and are creative with activities. She is constantly learning new skills and language, and growing in confidence.

We get good feedback after each session and feel comfortable that she loves her time there.

Overall Experience
Excellent nursery with friendly and welcoming staff. My son has enjoyed his time here and will be sad to be leaving the setting to attend school.
Lots of fab activities and messy play, learning games and fab teaching resources such as giant teeth set for children to brush and learn how to get all the teeth clean.

Lots of outdoor play and resources too.

Overall Experience

My son has been part of this nursery for almost a year now. Each and every staff member are so lovely and really care for all of the children. The facilities are a top standard and the building has easy access and parking out the front. Every day I drop my son off the rooms have been switched up with different activities for the children to participate in. He has come on in leaps and bounds in his development since attending. The children have a varied menu which my son inhales at nursey as he enjoys it so much. The staff provide regular updates through the day on their app and lets you know about their food, nappy changes, sleep, any exciting moments and developmental reviews. I am due my second baby soon who is already booked to attend this nursery as couldn't imagine sending them anywhere else.

My little boy started mama bears in January and he absolutely loves it the staff in the nursery are very welcoming and lovely especially in the bouncy room where my little one attends. The toys and activities have always been developmentally appropriate and varied, with seasonal activities incorporated. I am kept in the loop via updates on the app and I love to see what he gets up to. There isn't anything I could possibly criticise about this nursery.

We have been very impressed by Mama Bear's. Our children absolutely love attending nursery which makes it much easier as a working parent to drop them off knowing they have an exciting day ahead with their friends. The staff are very understanding and respectful and treat our babies as individuals. The toys and activities have always been developmentally appropriate and varied, with seasonal activities incorporated. We are kept in the loop via updates on the app and I love to see what they get up to! They love the food too and eat really well at nursery.

Overall Experience

My son started in September and it is a lovely nursery. He only attends Mondays and Wednesdays but they have been so lovely even from the initial look round. They keep me up to date with pictures, food diary and nap times etc which is of great comfort when I'm at work. The entire nursery staff are so welcoming and friendly and I am very glad they had a place for my son.

Overall Experience

My baby started attending at the beginning of February 2024. He seems to really enjoy himself and be thriving with the care and support of staff in the baby room. It is a pleasure to send him in each week knowing he will be cared for so well and that I will receive updates throughout the day of what he has been up to.

Reply from Joanne Pear, Manager at Mama Bear's Day Nursery & Pre-School (Bridgwater)

It has now been 5 beautiful months since my daughter joined Mama Bear’s Day Nursery, and she is addicted to it ever since.

As a mum, I'm grateful for all the things you've done, for making so much fun, for the stories you've told, the songs you sing, for teaching how to share and being fair and for always being there!

Reply from Joanne Pear, Manager at Mama Bear's Day Nursery & Pre-School (Bridgwater)

It is so lovely to hear comments like this. We have worked so hard as a team to offer exciting and engaging activities for the children to enjoy and take their learning home with them.
