Dedicated to Early Childhood Excellence

Our nursery caters to young learners from 3 months to 5 years old, providing top-tier childcare and an enriching learning environment. We operate from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM every weekday, throughout the year, excluding bank holidays and the festive period between Christmas and New Year.

Flexible Childcare Solutions

Understanding the dynamic needs of modern families, we offer a revolutionary Flexi-Care Plan. This plan is specifically designed for working parents and carers with fluctuating schedules, allowing you to customise childcare times to seamlessly integrate with your work commitments. You only pay for the care you need, ensuring that our services are not only premium but also cost-effective.

Government-Funded Childcare Opportunities

To further support our families, we provide government-funded childcare sessions for all 3 to 4-year-olds and eligible 2-year-olds. This initiative helps alleviate the financial burden of childcare while ensuring your child receives the best early education.

Meet our Nursery Manager: Amy

Hello, my name is Amy and I am the Manager at Mama Bear's at The Exchange, Bridgwater. I have been qualified in childcare for over 20 years, gradually building my way to Nursery Manager. During my career, I have taken part in various training courses and conferences, including SENDCO training, Advanced Safeguarding training and Paediatric First Aid. As a Manager, I oversee the day to day running of the nursery, but also to provide a warm, welcoming and positive atmosphere for all who attend. Getting to know our families and spending time with the children is a key point to me so I can make sure we meet all the children’s needs. I thrive in leading a team to bring out the best in all children who are in our care, ensuring children are provided with exciting activities to support all of their learning, following the children’s interests, keeping in line with age and stage of development, but challenge and extend where and when needed. To make this happen I share regular feedback with staff and provide regular support and training. I know how important it is for young children to be provided with the best learning environment, to support their own development and learning, to extend and challenge the children as they grow and develop, using the wider environment to support this. The early years is the most important stage of a child’s life as it is the time where we implement the foundations for their futures. In my own time, I run a Brownie Unit which I have done for almost 20 years. I enjoy walking, going on holiday and spending time with family and friends. I look forward to welcoming families to our lovely setting where we have a safe, warm, full of learning and fun environment.
