My son has been attending Mamma Bear childcare since January last year and he absolutely adores it!
Alessandra and all the staff are very friendly and accommodating when it comes to the needs of the child. My little one is always happy to go in the morning ( which is reassuring as a parent).
Very well run and organised. She keeps my husband and I updated on our son’s activities and the kids get to do a range of activities. I definitely recommend it!

Thank you ❤️
Honestly couldn’t reccomend mama bear childcare enough. We’re gutted we had to leave due to moving homes. However, anyone who receives mama bears childcare should rest assured that their kids are in a safe environment with your child’s needs individually catered for and with lots of fun activities. My son joined the childcare at age 1 and he has developed a lot. He has also been able to additionally learn portugeause which I’m trying to reinforce at home. The environment mama bear childcare has created is absolutely amazing and they really set a standard of expectation from other childminders!
Thank you so much for providing the very best childcare and we will miss you !

Thank you so much Daniella.
We’ll missed you too 😊
I would highly recommend Mama Bear Childcare, Alessandra took care of my first son for 2 years and now has my second baby boy. The space is beautifully kept, a lovely garden space and indoor play area. The children do lovely activities and Alessandra is great at sending photos and videos to keep you involved throughout the course of the day. My oldest son made great friends and still talks about his time there. As a mum I always feel confident that my children are well cared for and most importantly happy.

Alessandra has taken care of both our children from age 6 months and has always given us confidence that they were very happy and safe. She made it very easy to go back to work with trust and peace of mind. She provides a very clean and secure environment and loving care. The house has a big garden which gives plenty of space in the summer and the space indoors is also large, bright and well-equipped. It is a great setting for young children as it is small enough to provide personal care but large enough that they can develop alongside other children of different ages. Our son has made his best friends at Alessandra's!
I highly recommend Atrento!

I would highly recommend Alessandra for childcare. My 19 month old daughter has been with her for almost 1 year and she has absolutely thrived. Alessandra and her assistant makes sure that the children are well catered for.
There is a huge garden and summer house for the children to play in, as well as the spacious play room in the main house. She keeps an excellent record of their progress and informs you if there are any issues.
