Our History
The owner Helen Bell has been in childcare since 1984 and welcomes you to Glenbervie Kindergarden and GX Club. Helen had
managed in the private sector for over 12 years prior to establishing Glenbervie Kindergarden Larbert in late 2003 with Carron Grange House opening in October 2009 & our Brightons nursery opened September 2015. We purchased new premises in Carron, which we have fully renovated and extended and were delighted to open in March 2020 replacing our Carrongrange setting. This will also hold our GX Club.
Helen sees Glenbervie as a family and everyone including parents and staff are a major part of the this with most importantly the children themselves at the heart of it. As a mother of two children herself, Chloe, who is a nursery practitioner at our Larbert nursery and Kelsie, Helen and her husband Iain created the nursery with the vision and understanding that children need a loving, caring environment where parents and practitioners work together to ensure the best possible care environment is provided. We also understand that it is very difficult for parents to leave their most precious possessions in a childcare setting.
Helen promotes confidence in her staff to build good strong relationships which leaves the parents happy to leave their child as they head off to work, without worrying how their child is. Helen encourages parents to call or drop in unannounced to see how their child has been that day. It is important to Helen, Iain and the team that all parents are happy as their child is and try very hard to make sure that everyone is settled and happy.
With the support from her husband Iain (Bob the builder, minibus driver, janitor, many hats!!) Helen is based at the Carrongrove nursery though splits her time between all 3 nurseries.
