Bright horizons in Timperley has done so much for my daughter. She enjoys her time at nursery and has always done so much with her day. The care given by all the staff is brilliant. I would 100% recommend this nursery.

My daughter has attended Bright Horizons Timperley for 9 months. It’s been hard not being able to go in during Covid restrictions, but it has worked out OK. A couple of weeks in she had a wobble and protested about going in, quite naturally for a toddler. The staff handled this well and were able to reassure me. She’s made good friends and her pre school learning is evidenced in her conversations at home. It’s clear they do a lot to keep them entertained and developed and she speaks very fondly about members of staff. I would’ve commend as a safe, structured environment for children.
