Eighteenth nursery for South West group

Mama Bear's Day Nursery is converting a Grade II listed building in Bristol into a new nursery.

The nursery group currently has 17 settings in Bristol, Somerset and Devon, providing more than 1,000 places.

The building on Whiteladies Road, which was originally a church and more recently the city’s auction rooms, is being converted by the chain to provide an 80-place nursery for children aged three months to five years.

Building work is expected to finish next January when the nursery will open the doors to its first children.

Claire Godfrey, from Mama Bear’s Day Nursery, said, ‘We are so excited to be opening a new nursery on Whiteladies Road. It is in a convenient location for working parents and the building itself is perfect for the kind of home-from-home environment we aim to create.’
