It has been now a few months since my 1-year old son started at the Harrow branch of BLS. As a solo working parent, for me it was extremely important to have my child in a safe, caring and enjoyable environment and having my mind at rest that he is well looked after. After few months in with its ups and downs with first bugs and viruses getting caught, I might say with confidence that we are really lucky and priviledged to be in this nursery! All the staff has been amazing, both the ladies in the Milky Way room as well as management team. Maryam, Keren, Taz, Natasha, Rio, Ellen and other ladies have been really exceptional in taking care of my little one. He is super happy now and looks forward going to the nursery every day and unwilling to leave when collected! He has also accelerated so much in his developement and is now very confident in meeting new people and other children. He has also advanced in lots of other things, always thinking on new ways to entertain himself or getting independant in eating and playing showing creative side of his. That's all is a result of great job done by the nursery and its outstanding staff! Management team is always very friendly, helpful and supportive as well as extremely professional! I got a lot of useful information and been helped (and keep getting helped) with pretty much every request and beyond. On an aside note, this is also crucial for me to mention that everyone is very attentitive to my son needs (he has a health condition to be wary of) and not even once I noticed him not being properly dressed or treated. Last but not least, the nursery infrustructure is very well thought though- underfloor heating, layout of rooms and their equipment, big main and decent side garden- all safe and fully equipped for various activities. Futhermore, besides a great app providing information on how the day goes, there are online cameras. So we as parents can watch real time what is going on there at any point of the day and that is also great piece of mind. So in a nutshell Harrow BLS truly stands out as exceptional place for nurturing the kids whilst ensuring parents are also feeling great about it!

BLS Harrow is great! My children have been attending since before they were 1, they are now 2 and are thriving. I can see excellent growth in their development and skills and this is unmatched as it was something that was important for me. Their key workers have played a huge role in this too and it is evident in their everyday feedback and outstanding knowledge about my children, they really take care to know individual children well and cater to their needs and interests. Highly recommended nursery!

Our son who has been attending BLS since he was 1 years old, recently he completed the 4+ Assessment Support Sessions. The sessions helped us as parents in navigating the 4 plus assessment process but also our son in mastering the skills needed at this stage. We could see weekly progress made and the genuine excitement and motivation from our son in sharing what he had learnt.Soo pleased we opted for this additional help, it made all the difference.

Bright Little Stars Harrow is an exceptional nursery. Our little girl has grown in confidence since joining, and we couldn’t be happier with the care and support she receives. The staff, including Charlotte, Rio go above and beyond to nurture independence and provide a warm, caring environment for every child. The entire team is fantastic – they clearly love what they do and create engaging, well-planned activities that support children’s development rather than simply filling the day. The facilities are excellent, and the nursery’s app is a great way to keep parents updated. We are so grateful for the dedication of the Bright Little Stars team and would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a caring, professional, and development-focused environment for their child.

My child joined this nursery at just one year old and is now a happy, confident three-year-old. We’ve had a wonderful experience-caring staff, a warm atmosphere, and great support in my child’s development. Highly recommend!
