Recognised for providing outstanding childcare, our facility caters to babies, toddlers, and pre-school children from 3 months to 5 years old, serving not only the families of Yeovil District Hospital and South Somerset District Council employees but also the broader community. This nurturing haven was proudly rated 'Good in all areas' by Ofsted in July 2024, underscoring our commitment to excellence in early childhood education.
A Haven of Child Development and Discovery
Our nursery underwent a significant expansion in May 2013, transforming it into a comprehensive workplace nursery that supports the varied schedules and needs of working parents. Featuring four spacious playrooms, each meticulously tailored to different age groups, our environment is designed to promote age-appropriate learning and development. From lively toddler areas to quieter spaces for babies, each room offers an array of activities and resources, ensuring every child finds something to spark their interest and stimulate their growth.
Engaging Outdoor Experiences
Recognising the importance of outdoor play in child development, we've equipped our nursery with a custom-designed garden that includes robust, all-weather play equipment. Additionally, a newly added garden area features lush grass and a variety of natural elements, creating perfect settings for imaginative and physical play. Our facilities promote free-flow access from indoors to these enchanting outdoor areas, encouraging children to explore and engage with the natural world in a safe and secure environment.
Specially Designed Features for Enhanced Care
The nursery also boasts a sensory room, providing a stimulating environment that helps develop critical sensory skills. Alongside, a dedicated milk kitchen and sleep room cater to the comfort and nutritional needs of our little ones, ensuring they have a cosy, relaxing space for rest and refreshment.
Expert Care from Dedicated Professionals
Our team of highly trained childcare professionals is passionate about fostering a warm, inclusive atmosphere where every child feels valued and understood. They are skilled in nurturing each child's individuality, helping them develop their creativity, imagination, and social skills in a fun and engaging way.
A Community-Centric Approach
Once a facility managed by the South Somerset District Council, our nursery joined the Mama Bear’s family on 1st September 2012 and continues to open its doors to all families year-round, excluding only bank holidays and Christmas Week. We pride ourselves on being a community pillar that provides reliable, high-quality childcare accessible to everyone in the area.
At Abbey Manor Park Day Nursery, we are committed to creating a world where children thrive, learn, and grow into confident, curious individuals. Visit us to discover a place where your child can excel, supported by an environment that blends historic charm with modern educational practices.

"Our qualified, experienced team work alongside our parents to ensure the emotional, physical and developmental needs of the children in our care are met. We encourage each child’s natural curiosity through a range of stimulating, thought-provoking activities providing lots of sensory play relevant to their interests, age and stage of development. Our goal is for them to become confident, independent learners and ensure children are prepared for school by focussing on their emotional, personal, social and language skills, thus enabling them to grow into confident individuals for their future journeys both through nursery and onto big adventures that school life brings."
