Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool Crews Hole

I’ve had both my children go to Mama Bear’s Day Nursery (Crews Hole) for the last 6 years. They have been nothing but amazing. Always very supportive and focused on the children. My children have always been happy to go and love the practitioners. The manager is very involved with the kids too.

Our daughter loves going to Mama Bears Crews Hole, the staff are friendly and seem to really care about the children. The nursery is well run, communication is good, the facilities are well maintained and most importantly our daughter loves going.

I have been happy with Mama Bear’s Day Nursery. The staff are all fantastic and friendly making sure to give you lots of updates. The apps they use to provide learning and daily diary updates are brilliant. I always know how my child is getting on. The nursery is so approachable and I know I am always heard when it comes to my child’s needs. The children get lots of time outside which is great for my child. The garden is enclosed so I know they are safe. I would highly recommend Mama Bears.

Crew’s Hole Mama Bear’s is a fantastic nursery. It’s like a family. The kids love it. They have great activities and fabulous food and learn so much there. They go in happily and we are really content with the love and care they receive. Highly recommend.

Our experience with Mama Bears Crews Hole has been excellent to date. Our daughter settled in so well over a graded period of a few days. Her speech, mobility, social skills and personality have developed so quickly and in ways that we couldn’t have imagined. She is so happy to go to nursery every day and talks about all of the members of staff when she’s at home, even the ones who don’t look after her directly!
All of the staff are so friendly and welcoming and really make you feel like your child is in safe hands and in a place where they can thrive. They give the children so many opportunities to play and discover new things, and everything they do helps to work towards development goals individual to each child.
The nursery also uses a great app so you can see what your child is eating, nappy changes, sleep times and also photos/videos of their day so you can really feel involved and create a transition from home to nursery and vice versa. I 100% recommend it!

For my children who attend 5 days a week, 10 hours a day I have never once had any doubt about their safety. Everyone from the managers to those who are in apprenticeships go above and beyond every day. They listen to the children, often planning activities where they have expressed specific interests and are always there supporting us as parents in whatever challenge we may be facing at the time. I know my little girl is a handful at times but they continue to care so deeply for her no matter what mood she is in and accept her for who she is, it’s like she has multiple mothers and fathers which is what you want when your child is attending 50 hours away from you! Mama Bears Crew’s Hole has exceeded my expectations and I am so grateful to them for all they did and continue to do in supporting my child’s development and their education. Thank you just doesn’t seem to cut it.

My daughter started in the baby room back in January 2020. I was a single mum and my daughter was attached to me, but the staff at Crews Hole made the whole experience/process of dropping off for nursery so easy, just as my daughter got settled we hit lockdown, but when she went back in the August it was like she had never been gone, went straight in and has loved every minute of nursery since. My daughter starts school this September and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience she has got at Crews Hole Mama Bear’s. The staff have also been so welcoming to me and have helped when I’ve had concerns/needed a chat. We will 100% miss seeing their faces in September when we take our next journey.

Our daughter (coming up to 3 years old) has attended Mama Bear’s nursery in Crews Hole since she turned 1. She absolutely loves nursery days and settled in really quickly from the start. The nursery, and all the staff – her key worker, were all so accommodating of her nap and food schedule when she started.
There are always lots of activities going on at the nursery, and various cultural events (for different ethnicities) are marked which is brilliant.
The staff are all very caring, and our daughter feels very comfortable and happy being at nursery. We would recommend this nursery, and will also be sending our second baby to this nursery in the near future.

My son is 3 1/4 and has been going to Mama Bears in Crew’s Hole since he was 1. The staff are amazing! They always open the door with big smiles, and help our little boy to feel welcome and cared for. He often includes them in his list of best friends! They’ve made an effort to get to know our family, as well as respecting our wishes. We’ve never fed judged or rushed in how we’ve approached weaning, potty training, sleeping etc, and they have always reflected our choices where possible. Since moving to the pre-school room, we can see how much more independent our son is becoming and we’re amazed how much he has already learned with their support. Highly recommend.

I believe the most important thing about a nursery is the staff – their warmth, enthusiasm and dedication to what is a really difficult job. The staff at Mama Bear’s in Crews Hole have all of that in spades and we couldn’t be happier with how they look after the children who attend. They really know and understand our three-year-old and work hard to encourage his development on all fronts. He has had a great experience there since he started as a baby and I’m looking forward to starting my youngest at the nursery this summer.
