Nursery introduces flexible childcare to support working parents

A Bradley Stoke day nursery is introducing a flexible childcare scheme to make life easier for busy parents.

Mama Bear’s in Great Parks Road is offering the new service so families can choose sessions to fit their lifestyle.

It is believed to be the only nursery in the area currently to offer the option.

Nursery manager Kat Payne, said: “In today’s so-called ‘gig economy’ people’s working hours can change week by week.

“Instead of parents having to stick to rigid sessions, they will be able to change their booking pattern to suit their work schedule.

“We believe it will be especially helpful for parents who work shifts or are freelance. There will be no minimum sessions per week so perfect for parents who only want to place their child in a nursery every now and again.”

The nursery and pre-school, which is close to the Almondsbury Business Park, Aztec West and the M4/M5 junction, currently has free places available for three and four year olds.

Mama Bear’s Day Nurseries provide care for children from three months to five years with 22 settings across Bristol, Somerset and Devon.

A family-run business with its offices in Hanham, Bristol, the Day Nurseries are aimed at providing children with their first vital level of education to give them a head-start when they start at primary school.
