Overall Experience

Exceptional nursery. Our child has such a wonderful time here. The facilities and staff are amazing. Regular feedback provided from the staff about progress and development which they strongly supported. He had close bonds with them all and made some great friends. Loads of time spent outdoors which

he loved. Would highly recommend!

Overall Experience

We had a wonderful experience with Bloomsbury on the Beach. It is not a cheap nursery (and we worried about the costs) but it was absolutely worth it for us and in the end it felt like great value - we couldn't imagine having gone elsewhere. The location is fantastic, easily accessible and great to

cycle to. It's a great space inside, welcoming and full of lovely things for the kids. There are lots of superb activities and outings and obviously plenty of time spent on the beach right next door. The food menu was great, with lots of diverse and interesting options to build interest in the kids.
However, the most important thing for us by far was the excellent nature of the staff. Our son was very shy and could be overwhelmed but we never had to worry that he wasn't being looked after and looked out for. Even though there was some turnover in staff, the tone was set by the manager and we knew that whoever was working there would give the children their all. A big thank you to everyone there!

Overall Experience

From the moment we stepped through the doors, it was clear that this nursery is a special place filled with warmth and care. And locations says it all: lovely seafront with so many activities for kids to do and explore. Our Little girl is having fantastic time and has settled in so well.
The teachers

and managers at BOTB are amazing. They show great dedication, patience, and kindness towards each child, nurturing their curiosity and encouraging their growth. Kids are engaging in amazing trips and indoor activities like cooking soup and baking. The individual attention they provide has made a significant difference in my child's development.
The activities are thoughtfully designed to engage children for learning and fun. My little one has bonded with staff and peers so well and it will be sad to leave this place for her new adventure at the school.

Overall Experience

I cannot express enough how wonderful my experience was at Bloomsbury On The Beach for the year that my twins were there. From the moment I first visited, we knew it was the perfect place for them. The staff was not only warm and welcoming but genuinely passionate about the care and development of each

child.
What stood out most was the caregivers truly made an effort to form a personal connection with each child and showed an unmatched level of patience and care.
Over the course of the year, I saw my twins thrive - not only in their social skills but also in their independence and confidence. The nursery's emphasis on early learning, socialising, and developing good habits has had a lasting positive impact on them.
I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a nurturing and professional nursery for my children. It was an absolute pleasure to see them grow in such a positive environment, and I am forever blessed and grateful for the wonderful team at Bloomsbury On The Beach.

We absolutely love Bloomsbury of the Beach Day Nursery! My child is always so excited to go and comes home full of stories about her day. The staff are warm, caring, and genuinely invested in the children's happiness and development. She gets loads of fresh air and outdoor play daily, which is something

we really value. It's wonderful to see her thriving in such a nurturing and engaging environment. Highly recommend!

Overall Experience

Our 2 daughters attended Bloomsbury on the Beach Day Nursery in the summer of 2024.
They absolutely loved their time at 'mermaid school' and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
The staff were fabulous, always friendly and had plenty of time to chat with parents. One thing I really liked

was the sharing of lots of photos - the communication was outstanding.
It's a great nursery, especially during the warmer months when the children are outside for most of the day.

Overall Experience

We've been very happy with Bloomsbury on the Beach and most importantly, so has our son! The nursery is new and well-equipped with a great variety of toys and books that keep the children engaged and learning. The food there was healthy and tasty.
They regularly organise trips, as well as interesting

additional classes like yoga that add something special to the routine. One of the things we loved the most was the wonderful celebrations they arranged, such as the lantern walk to the beach, where parents could join in and share memorable experiences with their children. The staff are incredibly friendly and caring and our son felt comfortable and happy with them all. The location is another great advantage, especially in the summer, as it's right next to the beach and a playground, making it easy to meet other parents and kids after pick-up.
Overall, we highly recommend Bloomsbury to any parents looking for a warm, engaging and well-organised setting for their little ones.

Overall Experience

Bloomsbury on the beach (BOTB) Team was an amazing support to our son. They provided a safe and stimulating environment for our son. They were very accommodating, patient, caring and always sought to improve our son's speech and language skills. A big thank you and shout out to the BOTB and Bloomsbury

street day nursery (BSDN) Teams. We are really grateful for your support, kindness and consideration of our son's special needs. I loved the fact that they took the kids out for exploration and outdoor activities. We miss everyone and we would definitely recommend Bloomsbury to anyone looking for a safe, stimulating, supportive and fun environment for children to develop essential skills, whilst having fun at the same time. Thank you so much to the entire team for looking after our very special cheeky son.

Overall Experience

The team at Bloomsbury on the Beach Day Nursery are wonderful with the children. They really get to know both your child and your child's family/important people. The manager always used to remember my eldest child and make a big fuss of him whenever we picked up my daughter.
It's little things like

this that make it a really kind, special environment. The trips and activities the children do are really rich and fun. I felt my daughter, despite being a Covid baby, was really social because of how the nursery integrates the children. It's a really special place that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others. Thank you to all the team for taking such good care of my little girl.

Review from Katy F (Mother of Child) published on 31 October 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

We have three children and our youngest is at Bloomsbury on the Beach Day Nursery. She has been in a couple of other nursery settings and the Beach is, by far, the best one we have experienced in Brighton. She skips to school each day (she never says goodbye to us) and it's sometimes hard to get her

to come home! The team there, especially the manager and a member of staff, in particular, are absolutely outstanding. They sing songs, go on walks, do trips, make craft (and soup) and generally have the best time. We've experienced eight-plus nursery settings across our three children and we believe Bloomsbury on the Beach to be the best we've experienced. Thank you so much to the manager and team.

Overall Experience

Bloomsbury on the beach is a Brighton treasure. The excellent leadership and incredibly lovely team have created a wonderful environment for kids right on the beach that our daughter loved going to. The kids go out for trips often to the beach & nearby parks and learn loads thanks to attentive teachers

who go the extra mile to make their days more special. The food that the children get is healthy & nutritious and encouraged our daughter to eat more variety at home. They were also amazingly patient in helping her through a tricky toilet training stage. We absolutely loved sending our daughter here and cannot recommend it enough to interested parents.

Review from M A (Mother of Child) published on 29 August 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our child is very happy and settled at Bloomsbury on the Beach Day Nursery. He is learning so much and is really encouraged to follow his interests. The activities seem really engaging and varied, with lots of opportunities to be creative and also learn practical skills. The staff team is amazing -

we have found everyone to be very kind, caring and nurturing. And the managers are very open to feedback and suggestions. The facilities and resources are lovely and seem well looked after. The lack of outside space doesn't impact the time the children spend outside and our child really enjoys the variety of trips that are arranged on a daily basis (these have included; beach, playground, gardens and parks, museum, bus rides, shopping trips). The food provided seems varied and healthy. Overall, we have been very happy with this nursery and would highly recommend it!
