What our parents say
“I visited soooo many nurseries looking for the right place for my little one Indy to attend. As soon as I stepped foot inside Bardfield Montessori I knew it was perfect for him.
It’s such a calm and nurturing environment and the outside space is a dream come true for any little one! Our son has had some speech and language delays and the staff have gone above and beyond to support him and consequently he has come on in leaps and bounds.
He has an amazing key worker who works really hard to help support his confidence, and ALL the teachers know him inside out and he adores them all. I’m just devastated he will have to leave to start school soon as I’d happily send him until he’s a teenager! ”
“Bardfield Montessori is truly an outstanding nursery. The difference in my son since starting a little over a month ago is just incredible – he has gone from being a late talker to speaking new words everyday, engaging in conversation and forming proper sentences.
He is so keen to help others and is learning new life skills which he loves practicing at home. I cannot thank the staff enough, particularly Kristina, who my son is always so excited to see (it’s how I get him out the door of a morning!) and Charlotte.
My daughter started a week ago and, being born at the start of the pandemic, has had minimal interaction with strangers and other children, but she is also extremely settled and content with Charlotte looking after her and happily holds her arms out to her at drop off now and is always really happy when I arrive to collect her.
I cannot thank the staff enough for providing such a safe and happy environment for my children to thrive in. I highly recommend this nursery – you won’t find a better one!”
“Choosing a nursery setting for your child is such an important decision for any parent. Our daughter has been attending Bardfield Montessori for almost 2 years and we feel very blessed to have found such a nurturing & dedicated team to help raise her.
Molly and her staff have created a superb Montessori environment for the children to explore the world around them. Their nurtured approach to play and education is outstanding and they offer excellent daily activities such as forest school, preparing meals, singing, stories, cultural subjects, growing plants and fresh produce, animal visiting etc!
Our daughter is an incredibly happy, confident and independent little girl and we look forward to our baby no.2 joining the nursery next year.”
“Molly and her team have been invaluable in our children’s happiness and development. Our daughter, born with cleft lip & palate started at Bardfield Montisorri aged 12 months.
The staff have been so supportive in helping her through her hearing loss & speech delay working alongside us and her speech therapist. She is now 3 and absolutely thriving in life.
Our son started at 6 months old and he loves the baby room, greeting his key worker with open arms every morning!
The nursery is lovely with great outdoor space, the staff treat the children like they are part of the family and the children are always happy and smiling. Their smiles speak for themselves, the kids love it! ”
