September 5, 2024 at 1:14 pmOnly minor area that could be better is the amount of space, but that’s the circumstances, it’s made up for by the hard work of the team. Been truly pleased since my young lad joined. Good team, good activities, good updates. Thank you guys.

September 27, 2024 at 6:59 amLovely childcare centre where my baby feels like home! It’s so rare to find a “home” nursery setting in London, it really feels it’s exceptionally cosy and every baby and parent is looked after which is so important, as you only want the exceptionally best for your kids. Every morning when I drop my 12 months old baby off, she is so pleased to get in and gets so excited to see the lovely ladies who she enjoys. It makes me so thrilled to know that she is having a great day, full of activities and education, nice food and all the cuddles she needs. I trust they are in the best hands there both developmentally and emotionally. The ladies are all extremely nice and accommodating, we have a exceptionally good relationship with all of them and trust them 100% as we can see our baby girl is so comfortable with them from day 1.

November 16, 2024 at 8:50 amThe childcare centre and crew have been truly fantastic over the past 12 months, and have dealt with the current situation extremely well – keeping correspondence with us going over the past few months. Highly recommended childcare centre with great personnel, great sites and professional team who are great with the kids.

December 7, 2024 at 2:09 amShe likes all the nursery setting personnel but obviously, she has her favorite and she now says she has her best friend there as well (a little friend). They also offer swimming lessons when they turn three which is an extra plus. The nursery setting crew are great and would always give me a good insight into what she’s been doing through the day, how many nappies they changed, and how long she slept. They have so many activities throughout the day – from painting, free playtime, outside activities in the garden, activities in the studio (pickler triangle, tricycles). My young lady eats it all, sometimes double. My little girl has been attending this nursery setting since September 2020 and she treasures it. My little one adores it! I enjoy that most of the toys are wooden and if not there are toys with which little ones discover through activities. Food is prepared from scratch daily and is always exceptionally well balanced. I enjoy that they do different/special themed days throughout the year (pyjama day, Christmas party, book day, etc.).

December 21, 2024 at 11:07 pmThe crew were extremely helpful of me and my anxiety about settling him into a new nursery setting. I strongly suggest this early‑years hub. Staff at this Nursery go above and beyond to attention for and help my little one since he was 13 months old, now 3 1/2 years. My young lad is exceptionally pleased at this childcare centre. My boy now talks fluently as he had delayed speech. An app is used which tells me what my young lad has eaten, when he goes to swimming and when he goes to the toilet. It is located in a secure and safe environment as it’s based inside a Gym. The crew are absolutely incredible and the manager and deputy manager are truly helpful to the team and parents. He settled in exceptionally quickly after having a bad time at another early‑years hub. My girl will also be going when she turns 1 year old. Staff put videos and pictures of him on the app. The youngsters are always delighted. I am a member of the monthly parent forum and all the parents are in an app group in which we feedback to the parent forum. This is extremely reassuring.

December 24, 2024 at 5:46 pmMy little one flourished with their engaging activities and educational approach. The personnel was caring and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing space. Our time with the nursery setting was fantastic! We couldn’t be happier with the care she received.

December 25, 2024 at 2:57 amBoth my daughters are so thrilled at the early‑years hub, and can’t wait to be dropped off in the morning. The personnel are absolutely fantastic, and develop extremely strong bonds with the kids too. Couldn’t be happier with Nuffy Bear Nursery. They provide the right balance of nurturing and progress, and I’ve seen such a difference in the advancement of my kids since attending. Overall, couldn’t suggest strongly enough.

January 1, 2025 at 10:42 amVery nice and cordial nursery setting. Another plus, they celebrate all different special days from different religions, traditions and cultures. Kids benefit from yoga and swimming classes, which we find excellent and our little one absolutely enjoys it. They also do weekly cooking classes. Not so excellent outdoor premises but the early‑years hub has access to studios in the gym. Stable, low retention of team, most of the educators know my little one since her time in the ‘baby room’.

January 7, 2025 at 7:03 pmThe team are like family, and they treat the kids as their own. Choosing a childcare centre is such a significant decision and from the word go the manager and her team made us feel so reassured, comfortable and supported. The only thing you can wish for with your childcare is that your youngster is in an setting where they feel cherished, welcomed and encouraged and every one of the incredible team here do their all to ensure that is the case. Even though they have been through the process hundreds of times, they were sympathetic and understanding of what a huge transition it was for us as a family, and most importantly so loving towards our boy from day one. He really couldn’t cherish it more. I couldn’t endorse this nursery setting more wholeheartedly. There’s no need for app updates here – you know the personnel are all giving your kids the support and attention they need and handovers at the end of each day are really detailed and full. It’s a truly wonderful early‑years hub.

January 17, 2025 at 5:37 pmTheir attitude of being so accommodating and kind during this hugely stressful time for us will never be forgotten. They have been our key worker heroes during the pandemic, and we reluctantly left them in July 2020. We came across Nuffy Bear Nursery during the covid-19 pandemic as key worker parents, as they were one of the few nurseries still operating. They worked so hard to get our little ones to settle in quickly and were always reassuring and encouraging. They were hugely welcoming to us in this crisis and were flexible in adapting days and drop-off times to assistance our NHS work. Huge thanks to the manager and brilliant members of team – two of them in particular.

January 23, 2025 at 3:52 pmIn addition to this, the manager is incredible, always trying to help us as parents and to give us as much feedback as possible. He’s always looking forward to going and thrilled when he comes back home. They’re also doing so many different activities with the kids and it’s remarkable to see how he progresses. I also cherish how they’re celebrating many festive days throughout the year, making it so fun for the kids! They’re just wonderful! Everyone working at the childcare centre is so kind and we have always felt that he had a real bond with everyone looking after him. Our young lad has been going to this nursery setting for more than two years (since he was one year old) and he cherished it from day one (and so did we).

January 24, 2025 at 9:49 pmAll updates are managed through an app but the personnel are still thrilled to discuss the day at pick-up. Really well-managed childcare centre with a lovely community feeling. The early‑years hub isn’t the biggest and there is limited space but the cricket field adjacent can be used and the little ones have ample room to run around there. My kid looks forward to going to childcare centre every day!

February 8, 2025 at 9:40 pmThe crew are an extension of everyone’s family and the parent and kid community is just remarkable. We are really so pleased there and would suggest it to anyone looking for a loving and caring childcare solution. Nuffy is a wonderful nursery setting. The early‑years hub also benefits from great facilities (field, pool, studio) and an onsite chef.

February 10, 2025 at 2:16 amShe has epilepsy and a absorbing delay and the crew there have gone above and beyond to help with her advancement and advancement. She has come on so much since she started there and I’ll be so unhappy to see her leave when she starts reception next year. I couldn’t suggest this childcare centre enough. We have regular meetings to set new targets and to keep me up to date with her advancement. I just wish there were more nurseries out there of this standard. There’s plenty of opportunities for parents to give input during parent meetings and there’s always tea parties and activities going on. My young lady has been attending Nuffy Bear Day Nursery for over 2 years and absolutely enjoys it there. The personnel there encourage parents to come in for all of these and it’s fantastic to watch the little ones in this environment, one that they are clearly so comfortable in. Every member of the team at Nuffy Bear are clearly doing a fabulous job and the management are just as incredible.

February 10, 2025 at 10:47 pmWe feel truly lucky to have found this nursery setting that meets our daughter’s needs, knows her personality and keeps us informed of what’s she’s been up to- as best they can during a covid world. We have no hesitation in recommending this early‑years hub to anyone. The manager and the team go above and beyond to make our daughter’s time at Nuffy enjoyable and encourage her personality to shine and grow. Nuffy Bear and the friends that our little one has made during the 18 months she’s been there feel like an extension of our family.

March 16, 2025 at 1:14 amMy girl absolutely treasures going to early‑years hub and she has such a fun time and is cared for in a warm and secure setting. They have also coped amazingly during Covid and have put in place many safety measures but at the same time not impacted the high level of attention and attention for the little ones. Highly recommended! It really is a wonderful nursery setting and we are so grateful to have found it. The early‑years hub head is truly wonderful. We have been so thrilled with this early‑years hub – the team are all fantastic and so kind and caring. Both my daughters was enrolled at Nuffy Bear Nursery since they were 1 years of age and my younger kid is still at the childcare centre now in the pre-school room.
Rita W. Wells
March 25, 2025 at 6:53 amThe childcare centre manager has always been open and communicative and understanding of the different phases that little ones of nursery setting age go through. We have always been able to speak to her openly about any of our concerns/worries as parents. Our son’s advancement has been wonderful to see during his time at Nuffy Bear and we hope his younger sister will have as much fun there as he does! Our 3 year old little one has been attending Nuffy Bear since he was 11 months old. I cannot advocate the nursery setting and personnel here enough – our son’s needs have always been catered for and the team all have a real bond with the little ones.

April 29, 2025 at 6:18 pmTwo months later and they haven’t even had the manners to respond. The so-called ‘nursery manager’ never seems to be in, which I found truly strange and worrying. It took such a long time to find a childcare centre within the area, that accept under two’s, hence I was truly pleased when my boy was offered a place. I enrolled my 15-month-old young lad to this childcare centre on a part time basis, and after a few sessions, I had to withdraw him. Upon withdrawing my young lad from this nursery setting, I sent a exceptionally detailed email to the nursery setting highlighting the incidents. Whenever I would call I was told she was ‘off’ and even the week when my boy joined the childcare centre – she was off on annual leave for a couple of weeks, again – which I found extremely strange. This speaks for itself. Awful! Do not send your kid to this early‑years hub. There were so many incidents that occurred from my son’s soiled nappy not being changed, to contradicting reports about whether he had eaten or not, and to the team not caring when I expressed my concerns.

May 23, 2025 at 5:49 pmThe manager, deputy manager and crew are all just brilliant – thank you! We are so delighted with the early‑years hub. our little one adores it and it’s fantastic to see all the things she is discovering, the friends she is making, and the activities everyone is engaged in (like taking care of the garden).
Beth Young
June 27, 2025 at 4:22 pmAbsolutely delighted with our time at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Brondesbury Park! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to nurture our little one’s growth and happiness! The atmosphere is incredibly nice, and it fosters such a pleased environment for our 2-year-old. The staff’s kindness and professionalism are top-notch, making us feel confident that our kid is in excellent hands.
