Bear & Bunny Nursery

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

A wonderful nursery and pre-school. My son loves you attending Bear and Bunny and enjoys his day and has learnt so much. It was lovely to feel at ease leaving my son here when I had to return to work. A wonderful atmosphere as soon as you arrive. The equipment and garden area is amazing. So happy I choose this for my son.

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!

Bear and Bunny is a super nursery with amazing staff that care beyond words for all the little people. I love the outdoor nature of the nursery and the children LOVE forest school.

We couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery. Our son has attended Bear and Bunny for over a year now and we continue to be impressed by all that they do to make his nursery experience exciting and educational. From the early days, where they worked closely with us to ensure that he was settling in to the environment, to now when he goes for cookery sessions with his fellow toddlers and they send us the recipes to try at home, we have always found all the staff to be really supportive of both the children and their families. When I receive the updates through ParentZone app I feel reassured that he's having a great day, but also a little jealous of the yummy food they provide!

Extremely caring and hardworking staff who treat each child as an individual. The emphasis is learning through play and the outdoor environment is a classroom all on its own. We could not be happier with our choice of nursery for our boys to begin their learning journey.

My daughter has been going for over 2 years and I'll be signing the next one up too. The staff are so caring, energetic and engaging, they really make the whole process easier. They do yoga, cooking school, forest school and so much more, its incredible! She learns so much and is becoming such an amazing little girl, and alot of it is down to Bear and Bunny. Thank you!!

My son started at the nursery in February of this year and like most new mothers going back to work I was very apprehensive about leaving him. However the staff at Bear and Bunny could not have made the transition any easier making me feel reassured that he was in the best place so I didn't have to worry. They got him into a routine very quickly which I was able to adapt to at home and since then he has thrived there. All the food is freshly cooked, they provide a great sensory experience with different activities each day and they make sure he is able to explore outside at every opportunity, which he loves.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.

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 pre school. 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.
