Bluebells Bromborough is an outstanding Nursery. Our little boy has settled into Pre School so well. He has only been going for a few weeks and has done so many fun things already. Tapestry learning journal is an amazing tool to see the progress and fun the children have (don't know how you all get so much done in one day). The staff do a brilliant job and make Bluebells a fantastic Nursery. Thank you all so much. Would definitely recommend Bluebells.

Our little boy has attended Bluebells in Bromborough since he was 12 months old, and is currently having a fantastic time in Tweenie Room. The staff are professional and caring, and made our son (and us) feel extremely welcome from the very start of our Bluebells experience. Parents are regularly updated on their child’s personal developments and… achievements via Tapestry, and reading about what our son has been doing, together with looking through the photos of him, is really lovely. We also receive quarterly full reports on his progress and future learning objectives. The daily

This is my 20th year of working for Bluebells and it has been a fantastic journey . I cherish all the memories I have made a long the way with staff, children and parents! I couldn't be prouder of all our achievements and our amazing teams in both settings. I have had the privilege of caring for so many children throughout the years, watching… them thrive ,learn and grow through our home from home nurturing environment . It's so lovely when they come back to visit us after leaving for 'BIG 'school, we have fantastic parent partnerships, and many have become friends. Both my children have
