Fishponds

Our Fishponds nursery is a wonderful purpose-built childcare setting located in secure gardens just off Thicket Avenue. The timber-built building is set in landscaped gardens designed to be full of areas of discovery and learning. Inside the nursery, there are four well-maintained rooms for nurseries catering for different age-groups with trained staff who understand children’s needs and plan a variety of age-appropriate activities.

The garden is full of stimulating and fun toys that our children love playing with. We can see how fast the seeds grow in the planters or have story time under the gazebo. There are endless opportunities to make the most of being outside and to enjoy running around in the fresh air.

The nursery is ideally located in the heart of Fishponds and just a minute’s drive away from the key routes into Bristol centre. There are plenty of local bus routes and the Bristol Bath Railway Cycle path can be accessed at the end of Thicket Avenue. You can find us by Hillfields Park by following the lane next to Hillfields Park Baptist Church. 

This setting was formerly run by FLAG and became part of the Mama Bear’s family on 1st September 2010. The nursery is open all year round (except bank holidays and Christmas Week) and welcomes all families with children from three months to 5 years old.

I have had 2 children at this nursery. It's a lovely environment, small so the children build good relationships with the staff, who are caring and genuinely are passionate about their work. My daughter is doing really lovely creative activities. They spend time out in the garden in all weathers. I am aware other nurseries have bigger space and more facilities, but for me, it's most important that my children feel so happy and secure here and are genuinely excited to go to nursery. I get lovely pictures and videos on the Parentzone app and my daughter's speech and imaginative play have really developed.

My 3 y o daughter attends Mama Bears and has been there since 10months. She has a tendency to be quiet and shy but is happy and confident at nursery and is always keen to head off to nursery in the morning. She is v fond of the staff and the other children. Activities are fun, varied and engaging, no two days seem to be the same. We receive daily feedback and the manager is v responsive to requests, incl flexibility on extra days if possible. On top of that, the location is very handy, the garden and building are spacious and well maintained and the car park makes pick up and drop off super easy. Plus the park next door is good for meeting other parents and kids from nursery.

My child went there for few weeks this summer, Some staff members were impolite as well as the manager, unprofessional & unorganised. There were couple people who were nice but still this place needs lots of improvements especially in terms of manners and behaviour of those individuals who are running it.
