September 3, 2024 at 10:36 amThe outdoor facilities, particularly in the preschool areas are excellent, and the team consistently make an effort to gear activities towards a kid’s interest(s). Both of my kids have been highly cheerful here, and the team are consistently smiling, welcoming and compassionate.

September 13, 2024 at 3:21 pmTeam genuinely care about and know our kids. My middle daughter calls one of the members of team her “bestie”! Our individual needs are also well met – all 3 wore cloth nappies, my eldest was dairy free. I would not hesitate to suggest them and will be sad once my youngest leaves! All 3 of my kids have attended/are attending Natural Choice, Charfield and all 3 have been highly well looked after and truly delight in(ed) their time there.

October 6, 2024 at 6:43 pmI had a inviting and cosy feeling and knew my son would be cheerful and highly well looked after and over a year on, I can honestly say I am so highly cheerful with my choice! At the settling in process, I was nervous as any parent would be, all the team were reassuring and didn’t mind how many times I rang to check on him! They were remarkable at helping my son settle in. They do so many enjoyable and exciting activities that most days I struggle to get him to leave. They are giving my son the perfect start to his educational life too. I truly can’t praise Natural Choice Nurseries Ltd. enough and thank them for all they do. Even from my first visit to look around the childcare centre last year I loved it.

November 6, 2024 at 3:08 amI was obviously highly apprehensive about leaving him at this age, as any parent would be as my son was so young. However, I needn’t have been as the team were excellent from the moment I first left him in their care until his last day in August 2016.
I truly believe that attending Natural Choices built his self‑assurance greatly and prepared him to attend school with ease.
The team are outstanding and listened to any concerns that I had. He built positive bonds not only with other peers but also the team. My son attended Natural Choices in December 2012, from the age of 5 months old.

December 29, 2024 at 7:18 amAlthough initially apprehensive about moving him, he soon settled in and is even happier than at his previous childcare centre. The outdoor spaces have been improved over the years and activities such as gardening club and French provide a great variety of activities and experiences. The food is organic and varied and all of the team we know are outstanding – enjoyable and attentive. Being set in an old cottage, the rooms are quite small but they make full use of it. Our daughter is there now and is just as cheerful and developing well. I’d definitely suggest it. Our son was at this childcare centre for 2 years after moving from an outstanding childcare centre in Bristol.

December 29, 2024 at 5:00 pmMy son has settled there so well and is cheerful and nurtured. The team are outstanding – the care and attention they show my son are exceptional, and you can see this when I drop him off, and he’s so cheerful to go into their arms, and when I pick him up, he’s happily engaging with them with a huge smile on his face. The food is outstanding and highly nutritious, and my son often eats seconds. They have fantastic outdoor space where they spend lots of time whenever the weather is bright enough to do so. They deliver many activities, and the updates home is exceptional – I have so many pictures of him smiling away and doing lots of different enjoyable things. We are 100% cheerful with our choice of Natural Choice and are enjoying seeing our son thrive there. Natural Choice is a remarkable childcare centre.

January 9, 2025 at 10:07 amMy kids have highly different characters and both have been highly cheerful there – an indication of how well they look after individual kids. The team are welcoming and attentive and they all know the kids well. The food is healthy and varied and I’m pleased that they are offered so many different tastes – with my eldest is now at school and having school dinners, I fully appreciate how great the childcare centre food is!
Speaking to friends using other nurseries, I learned that team changes and team turnover can be quite an issue in childcare settings. I had no idea because Natural Choice Nurseries don’t seem to face any problems there and, in fact, any team changes are highly well managed which is a sign of how well the childcare centre is run by the manager and owner. I have been using Natural Choice Childcare centre in Charfield since 2012.

January 13, 2025 at 6:52 pmShe is now 3 and a half and still loves it there. She has recently started pre-school at our local school and the team there have made comments on how bright she is, I’m sure it’s Natural Choice Childcare centre team I have to thank for this. I am still amazed by the knowledge she comes home with. My daughter has been to Natural Choice Childcare centre – Charfield since she was 6 months old.
Harper Irwin
February 17, 2025 at 3:49 amListening to other mums complaining about other nurseries, I can assure that this childcare centre is by far the best. My kid consistently comes home without being dirty and consistently in the best mood! In fact, my kid never wants to leave when I pick them up. I am highly cheerful with its outcome and will certainly send my second kid to this childcare centre. I have never any problems with the team or generally at Natural Choice Nurseries Ltd.

March 7, 2025 at 12:18 pmHe had the most fantastic time, in a nurturing, attentive and enjoyable setting. He made friends who he will have for life. I couldn’t suggest the childcare centre more highly. I cried when he had to leave! My son joined Natural Choice Nurseries aged one and left to go to school.

March 13, 2025 at 8:30 amThe team are outstanding, she has developed a excellent bond with a number of the girls. They have truly contributed to my daughter’s development over the years and believe it was the best decision we made. We have since moved away from the area but our daughter still attends Natural Choice Childcare centre despite being surrounded by other nurseries much closer to home. They have been a excellent assistance even during difficult times and have made balancing working and being a mum much easier. I would suggest them to anyone and I am sure my daughter is going is going to find it difficult to say goodbye next year. My daughter has been attending Natural Choice Childcare centre since she was 4 months hold (now 4 years) and we have experienced no issues at all.

March 15, 2025 at 12:50 amMy son has been attending for a year now and I can’t believe how much he is thriving and this is all down to the team and the resources that Natural Choice Nurseries Ltd – Charfield provide. I am quite a fussy parent as I have worked in childcare centre settings before. My son rarely wants to come home and consistently comes home talking about all the enjoyable things he has been doing and who he has played with. I sense that the team genuinely care about my son and consistently make time to hand over to me or my partner in detail at the end of the day. We adore reading the detailed observations in his development folder and seeing all the lovely pictures they take!
The food is remarkable and healthy and consistently varied.
I would and do highly suggest Natural Choice Nurseries Ltd- Charfield to anyone looking for a enjoyable, loving and educational childcare centre. I absolutely adore Natural Choice Nurseries Ltd – Charfield!
Robin Randall
March 19, 2025 at 4:17 amWe had no hesitation in taking him to this childcare centre as our daughter attended for approximately 3 years before starting school. All of the team are truly welcoming and do an incredible job in looking after all of the kids. I would be cheerful to suggest this childcare centre. My son has recently started attending the childcare centre.
Toby Jarvis
March 23, 2025 at 7:12 amIt just felt ‘right’ when we walked in, a ‘home from home’. Our little boy was initially highly tearful in the mornings (and sometimes still is now) but the team were (and are) absolutely exceptional with him and I know he is in the second best place to be when we have to go to work (first, obviously, being at home – damn that mortgage). The girls who look after him are like his second mums and care and adore him whilst we aren’t there.
Could not suggest this childcare centre high enough. Natural Choices (Charfield) already came highly recommended from several of my mummy friends and on that alone, we felt we didn’t need to look at any other nurseries.

March 27, 2025 at 6:57 amWe’ve been cheerful from day 1 and will continue to use the childcare centre for our second kid. The team are consistently cheerful and genuinely attentive towards the kids and our son consistently comes home cheerful (and exhausted from all the enjoyable he has had). The time and care that goes into the kids’s development is outstanding and the updates between the childcare centre and parents via email/online journal/face to face is outstanding. The food is so varied and healthy, I never have to worry if he’s been fed well and knows that he will not grow up to be a fussy eater as a result. We cannot suggest Natural Choice Nurseries Ltd – Charfield enough. I only have great things to say about Natural Choice Nurseries Ltd – Charfield.

April 6, 2025 at 3:11 amMy son has several allergies and they have put lots of processes in place for his safety.
The team are so welcoming and knowledgable.
The cook makes fresh and nutritious meals which the kids seem to truly delight in! A remarkable childcare centre in a lovely location.
Spencer Wells
May 18, 2025 at 3:57 pmShe is a highly strong-willed kid and sometimes highly difficult to handle! That’s where Natural Choice Nurseries come in. They truly have the patience of angels!! Nothing seems to phase them.
Their care and understanding is second to none. Consistently something interesting for the kids to do each day (she consistently goes home with some lovely stories of the day) and the food she thinks is yummy (she will eat anything and everything now).
It’s been such a success for her that her little brother has recently joined the baby unit (at 7 months) and has had no problems in settling in. My family can rest assured that on the two day’s a week that the kids go to NCN that they will be secure, looked after in all aspects and highly well fed !! My granddaughter has been with Natural Choice Childcare centre since she was 7 months old and is now in her final year (starting school next September).
Toby Reid
May 25, 2025 at 10:41 amThe childcare centre has been an incredible place for her to be looked after by the lovely team and has been remarkable for her development. Our daughter is now 4 and has been going to Natural Choice Nurseries Ltd in Charfield since she was 13 months old.
Milan Sutton
June 18, 2025 at 3:06 amMy son truly enjoys his time there and is definitely benefiting from interacting with the other kids. It’s a lovely setting with a highly homely sense and the menu consistently looks incredible, much better than I get at work! I would thoroughly suggest it as a place to take your kid. Natural Choice Childcare centre is a fabulous childcare centre, the team are excellent and were truly supportive in those first few days when I was having wobbles leaving my precious first born with them!
