My little boy has been at the nursery for 4 years and loves the staff and the nursery. He has learnt lots whilst being there and has enjoyed his time there.

Amazing nursery ran by a dedicated management team. Lovely families and children and well kept premises. They care about the children's learning and development as well as their health and well being.

Number of reasons why I disliked this place. They never seemed bothered. My child is three and toilet trained but of course when playing he may need reminding time to time, he'd 9/10 come out with wet pants even though he was only there for 3 hours. On hot days they'd come out gasping for a drink. On days when it was raining or had rained they'd be outside on the slide. I picked him up one day and he was absolutely drenched. His coat and trousers were so wet they hadn't dried after being in the dryer for 2 hours! He was ill all weekend as well after that. No apology. They just said that they experience

The staff here are amaizing. I was always unsure about leaving my children in a nursery, but i now put both of my children in Hunny Bear, i always get communication about what is going on, change that occur, how my children are getting on and an email with a film of my children's progress over each term. This is a great, clean, well organised and well ran nursery. The best thing is i know my children are well look after.
