Mama Bear's Day Nursery & Pre-School (Totterdown)

My three year old is thriving at this early‑years hub. She’s been attending since late 2021 and moved from babies to bouncies and is now in preschool. The personnel are incredible and go above and beyond. Her vocabulary has expanded, her discovering astonishes me and she’s so well-socialised with other little ones and adults.

Our son’s main educator and all support team have been incredibly caring as our young lad adjusted to a big change of location and situation over the previous four months. The updates throughout the day have been hugely welcomed, and show our boy engaged in a broad range of activities, indoor and outdoor playtime, and mainly show the fun and warmth that is evident in the space. He is making friends quickly and bonding with his instructors, and we are extremely grateful for the help and flexibility they’ve shown.

I am overjoyed with this place and cannot imagine a better one for my little one! I am 100% recommending this place! There is a variety of activities and the general playtime space is well designed to suit kids’ needs. The updates through the app with the daily updates, photos and individual headway, as well as in person, is really good. My daughter’s additional needs are constantly reviewed and the team are doing an extremely good job to help with her growth and to help with her individual needs. She is truly thrilled in the nursery setting and doesn’t want to go back home at the end of the day. Since the start of new manager they went through a massive and positive makeover, providing exceptional childcare now. I am truly pleased with the Mama Bear’s Totterdown time.

We have been truly pleased with the approach from team to our children’s needs, treating them as individuals with specific approaches and care for them as required. The nursery setting is well managed, correspondence with parents is good and we have been pleased with the way that the early‑years hub has approached the preceding year, with its unique challenges. We have been really delighted with Mama Bear’s Day Nursery & Pre-School (Totterdown). Our little one has been through all of the age-ranged rooms since babies and is now in preschool and our little one is in babies. We would advocate this nursery setting to others looking for a wonderful setting for their little ones.

It is a extremely good childcare centre to go to, as my boy enjoys going there. The crew are extremely good and accommodating. He likes all the new activities. If the youngster does not turn up at the childcare centre, they always ring to make sure everything is ok.

We are extremely pleased with this childcare centre and feel like they provide our boy with excellent support. We feel well informed about his day to day meals/nappies. Staff are always extremely welcoming in the mornings at drop off and feedback about the day is provided at drop off. He is extremely delighted to enrol at and always talks positively about the activities he completed and the team who look after him.

Thank you for your support and encouragement, this is really accommodating towards the progress of imaginative abilities and the absorbing process. We, as parents, believe that with your guidance she will become a more responsible and capable youngster. Our young lady is having a great time at the childcare centre.

The manager put in place a extremely comprehensive improvement plan: team enrol at training regularly in a variety of things, parents are informed throughout the day via the app and when picking up kids of what they did in terms of playing, who their friends are, what they ate, sleep, etc. They have a library where little ones can borrow books to take home. The correspondence with parents is great; they send out a monthly bulletin with exploring objectives for the different rooms and suggest activities to do at home to reinforce the exploring. These would be exceptionally difficult to recreate at home. Totally suggest. And most importantly, the team really attention about youngsters, they are exceptionally welcoming, and it is just such a nice place. My review is from the time the current manager joined, as the early‑years hub has better extremely significantly since. The place is spotless and bright, with plenty of things to do. They do so many different activities like exploring about dinosaurs, playing with lava and gardening.

She adores going to the early‑years hub and she has made great friendships there. Staff are exceptionally caring and they help children’s progress well. I would endorse this childcare centre to everyone! They plan lots of exciting activities which are often based on children’s interests. My little one became more independent and is able to put her coat on by herself and use the toilet independently. At home, she sings lots of songs and recites stories she knows from the childcare centre.

Their friendships are nurtured and they are encouraged to explore and develop their abilities. They always come home filthy, which is the sign of a good day! The personnel are aware of their individual needs and are always warm and welcoming. Overall a lovely setting and I would suggest exploring this as an option for your kid. My little ones look forward to attending early‑years hub.
