As my daughter finishes up the happiest 2 years at Bright Horizons I thought Id write a review. We have not had a single thing we could possibly question or complain about in the past 2 years. The staff are wonderful and quickly become a second family, they are caring, friendly, passionate and motivated and always want the best for the children. My daughter has happily gone into nursery every day and is off to school as a well rounded, confident and clever young girl mostly thanks to her wonderful key workers LKeisha and Laura. Special mention has got to go to the manager Loraine and the chef John. Elizabeths eyes light up when she sees them and they are the kindest people you will meet. If youre deliberating sending your child here do not hesitate - it was the best decision we ever made.

My daughter has been going to this nursery since she was 10 months, now she is 3 yrs old. The staff are so caring and tentative, this was the most important thing for me. Not to mention the nursery is very clean and every area is well placed. I cannot stress how impressed I am at how equipped they are for the children. The staff are friendly and so approachable and easy to talk to especially about my very picky eater daughter. They ask questions to try and help her to eat during the day. My daughter loves her nursery most of all.

My son is at this lovely, caring nursery which is a star in Bright Horizon's firmament. Manager Loraine really cares about the small children who come through the nursery, and their families' wellbeing and the nursery has dealt with the shifting challenges of Covid with care and an onus on the families it serves.
