The 30 Best Child center in Bristol

“We have been swimming with Puddle Ducks since our son was 10 weeks old, and he is now 3. He has come on leaps and bounds (quite literally!) He is so confident in the water and the focus on safety gives us sense a reassurance. He absolutely loves swimming and it’s something that we love to do together. The teachers are all amazing (and we’ve particularly loved having Carly and Vicki) and are so passionate, they also make the classes so fun. Thank you Puddle Ducks!”

“Our child was suffering with violent mood swings and anger at home although seemed to be getting on fine at School. He was masking his behaviour and it felt like he was taking it out on us, his family. Amber was a lifeline for us and she truly gave us back our beautiful loving son. He now has more confidence and can more clearly communicate to us how he is feeling and we are able to discuss ways to resolve his issues before they blow up. I can't recommend Amber enough and if any of our children display worrying behavioural signs in the future we will be sure to be back.”

“*** Eye of the Sun God *** We’re a family of 4 (with kids 13 & 11yrs) and this is our 5th escape room… and probably our favourite. Plenty of things to do, fun themed rooms and enough puzzling to keep us all involved and busy. Charlotte, our host, was also welcoming, lovely & helpful (when needed). She even hid a birthday card for one of our kids, which was a fun surprise. Highly recommend this company and this escape room.”

“We went for a gender scan and wellbeing check up at 16 weeks and had an amazing experience. The staff were all welcoming and friendly and shared in our excitement. We got all out scan pictures digitally, two printed and the heartbeat inside a teddy bear for a very small and reasonable fee. Would highly recommend!”

“We love the staff at KSN. Amira, Sophie and the others in the preschool room are so wonderful with our son and make him love learning. Mariam, Ellie and Charley have been brilliant with our daughter in the baby room. We really rate the staff and have had consistently wonderful experiences, even through times where we know recruitment can be a challenge.”

“An absolutely fantastic experience from the moment we checked in at reception, where the friendly and welcoming staff greeted us. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The entire venue was immaculately clean. Our room was extremely spacious, spotlessly clean, beds and bathroom were fantastic. The food is of an exceptionally high standard. A special note must go to our waiter in the evening, Aarc. Extremely polite, professional and helpful. A credit to the company. Highly recommend if your looking for somewhere to stay in Bristol”

“Premier Inn Bristol King Street – Perfect Location and Outstanding Service Stayed at Premier Inn Bristol King Street and couldn’t have asked for more. It’s a great hotel in a fantastic location, ideal for a night out or a stag do, with bars, restaurants, and nightlife all within walking distance. The hotel itself is exactly what you expect from a well-run Premier Inn – clean, comfortable, and reliable, with all the essentials for a stress-free stay. What really stood out was the exceptional service from the staff. A booking error meant a double room had been reserved instead of a twin, but the team went above and beyond to fix it – bending over backwards to sort out a twin room on the spot and save the booking. If you’re planning a night out in Bristol and want good value accommodation with first-class customer service, this is a top choice.”

“Brilliant Service for our two day conference with almost 40 delegates attending from across the country. The Drawing Room was the perfect space for presentations and working groups, with space on one side for a grazing station and tables for a working lunch. The room was set up exactly as requested and lovely and toasty during a cold November. The team were very adaptable to our ever changing plans and it was very easy to arrange meetings in person as well as liaise over email. The accommodation was gorgeous and everyone was very happy with their rooms. We also hosted a private dinner in the Garden Room, which again was set up exactly as requested with space to network. It ran to our timetable taking into account welcome drinks, speeches and a three course meal. Again it was lovely and toasty for a cold and wet November. And lunch in the brassiere on the final day was delicious. Complements to the entire team. Would highly recommend!”

“My son first started nursery at Bristol Montessori and when he left he didn't speak any English. The teachers were very attentive to everything and within 8 months he was understanding and able to communicate with most English speakers. He has also made tremendous progress in his socialization. Even though my son's nursery is over, he still wants to go there. I'm glad we sent it here. I definitely recommend it. Thank you so much for everything.”

“A hotel where you can take your pets! This is a lovely hotel. The rooms are clean, well laid-out and a decent size. Staff are helpful and friendly. Parking at the nearby Millennium Square car park is discounted and the buffet-style breakfast is plentiful and delicious.”

“Amazing experience staying here! Staff very friendly and helpful and also non-judgemental (as we turned up head to toe in Halloween gear aha) and no one batted an eyelid. Our room was clean and well laid out with comfy pillows and good room temperature settings. The hotel feels very fancy and well put together and for the price is amazing value for money.”

“The team at Children’s A&E and on the Penguin Ward are fantastic, 2nd to none! I’m ever so grateful they helped my son with his medical issues. The dedication and patience they have. Hats off to them.”

“Incredible therapist and supervisor! Highly recommended.”

“The next generation of Full Court Press owners have been very well cared for here!”

“Beautiful nursery. Well run and managed. Lovely staff who genuinely care about the children. My grandson has been coming here since a baby and is just leaving for school. He’s been very happy here. A great start to his education. Nice location too and easy to park for drop off. Highly recommended.”

“I would highly recommend Raised In for anyone going through the process of picking a nursery for their child. The staff are so accommodating to child and parents needs. They are organised, professional and thorough yet warm and inviting. They feel like family. Everything is set up perfectly for your child’s development and the standard of care is second to none. They truly care deeply about every single child that comes into their care and you leave your child there knowing they are in good, safe hands. We absolutely made the right choice with Raised In. Our daughter has come leaps and bounds since starting in September and she’s so ready to start her next step into school.”

“This place was perfect for a 5 year old birthday party. Veronika led the party and kept the guests entertained throughout, and there was a great balance of organised activities and free playing time. We'd thoroughly recommend it!”

“Lovely ballet and tap dancing school. Children can start from 18 months and progress through the classes and start ballet exams when they are 7+ Miss Daisy is lovely and teaches the classes for the Bristol area. Reasonably priced. My Preschooler has so much fun as the terms are themed for the younger children.”

“My son settled into Little Wellies really quickly and is having a fantastic time. The staff have been brilliant and I get a good daily overview of what he has been up to. Great facilities and playgrounds for plenty of time outdoors.”

“The support and training provided is trauma-informed and therapeutic. The team around foster carers and children/young people is amazing.”

“Heidi was amazing with our daughter, she always came out of sessions happy so was clearly comfortable with Heidi. I have seen a real difference in my daughter and know that Heidi is there for us if we need her again. Thank you Heidi!”

“Highly, highly recommend … Ashley is a skilled therapist and consummate professional. The impact that his EMDR therapy has had on my life is enormously positive. I approached the EMDR therapy with little knowledge and no expectations and throughout, Ashley made me feel safe and comfortable, explained each step, took time to assess continually and we got to a great outcome. Ashley’s skill at connecting life events, as well as applying the EMDR therapy to these, was really impressive and invaluable to the process as a whole. A grey fog has lifted, anxiety reduced, triggering events now minimised – in short, a life changing experience for the good, for which I am very grateful.”

“Victoria gave me my first session recently and I already feel really healed in so many ways. I honestly feel like the session was so helpful. I am soso grateful for your help Victoria, your session made me feel so comfortable, not judged and it also felt so productive as I was given tools and ideas for how to navigate my thoughts and feelings. I can’t wait for our next session. I highly recommend Victoria. Heba x”

“We'd previously been at a different nursery that my daughter didn't get on with but she loves it at Bright Horizons. She's been there 1.5 years now and all the staff know her by name and talk to her. They all make an effort to understand her and what she needs. The outside space is amazing and they do activities like forest school where they take them offsite. Danielle, Alisha, Jenny & Jade really couldn't do more to make her have more fun at nursery.”

“Service was immaculate. Breakfast and evening meal were amazing. Reception staff went above and beyond. We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend. Room was spacious and had a great view over the water. Close to the city centre everything was a stones throw a way. The pool closed the week before we came which was a little disappointing but didn’t really affect us as there was plenty in the area to do. Thanks to the Holland House team for making our weekend so amazing.”

“Very handy shop. When you need something quickly, most of the time, they will have it. The mail collection point is very useful and the staff always helpful and friendly. Very sad if they knock down the Galleries.”

“My eldest daughter spent few months here and we were little worried she won’t fit in as we just moved in here but the staff were very nice and helped her all the way. Thanx to all of you ❤️”

“I wish I could give you more stars. You all are superb.”

“Excellent day center mum really looks forward to seeing her friends and friendly staff every week. Thank you BCL. WIN”
