from K R (Mother of Child) published on 17 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Bright Horizons Astley is an absolutely fantastic nursery.
The activities for children are educational, fun and really varied. I received regular updates via the app with lots of photos.
The meals were also really varied and excellent quality.
My child had a wonderful nearly 4 years there. Their

confidence grew so much over that time and it was lovely to see the relationships built with staff. I always dropped off knowing they were well cared for and the staff truly are outstanding. They really care for the children and know them and individuals. A big thank you to everyone there - I would recommend you to anyone and everyone!

from Danyaal A (Aunt of Child) published on 13 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

Today, I dropped off my niece in her room for the first time, and I felt really welcomed. The staff are so nice and greeted me. They helped me around as I didn't know where her peg was. I could tell they really care for the children, and they know how to calm each child with the things the child likes.

I honestly felt so comfortable leaving her. I know she is well cared for.

from Rebecca B (Mother of Child) published on 10 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Bright horizons Timperley has been absolutely brilliant with our daughter who was born 10 weeks premature. We had concerns due to her developmental age and small size, but they have made her feel completely at home and been so helpful in settling her in. She absolutely loves it and we feel very good

about her being there and she already seems to be developing new skills as a result of learning from other babies!

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Timperley Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you so much! We're thrilled she's thriving. Your kind words mean a lot to our Bright Horizons Timperley team

Brilliant Nursery! 5 stars in everything!
Such a warm atmosphere, my son loves it here, he has settled so well into his first term with their brilliant settling in sessions, he walks in happily into the setting daily and loves the girls. All my queries are dealt with promptly and the Pre- school

The management is excellent Thanks Collette!

Bright Horizons Bolton Day Nursery and Preschool
from Rozina H (Mother of Child) published on 30 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My daughter has come such a long way since joining the nursery. It took her a couple of weeks to settle in, mainly with drop-offs, but she quickly grew comfortable. She initially bonded with one key worker in the baby room and another in the toddler room, and over time she's become more open to all

the staff.
The nursery has really supported her developmentshe's progressed with potty training, trying new foods, and has become much more confident, playful, and social. She loves being there and enjoys playing with the other children.
The nursery is clean and tidy, and Zahra always comes home well cared for, with no mess on her clothes or in her hair. It's clear the staff really look after the children.
One small improvement could be more regular updates, weekly or at least every two weeks with pictures and details of daily activities. This would help parents feel more connected to what their children are doing. More activities outside too
Overall, we're very happy with the nursery

Overall Experience

A fantastic nursery and brilliant staff!
My son began attending Bright Horizons earlier this year and he absolutely loves it. His face lights up as soon as he sees the nursery doors, he adores all of the girls who work there. The setting is wonderful, it is always clean and tidy in a morning with plenty

of toys and activities for my child to choose from.
I always recieve positive feedback about my child's day at nursery, staff are happy to answer any questions I have & always have a smile on their face, and emails/messages are responded to promptly. I would definitely recommend this nursery to others!

Bright Horizons Astley Day Nursery and Preschool
from Lesley B (Mother of Child) published on 15 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

A truly exceptional nursery.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found a nursery that truly understands and celebrates our child. From day one, the staff have gone above and beyond to meet his communication, sensory, and emotional needs with warmth and professionalism. They've worked closely with us to

ensure consistency between home and nursery, the team listen, adapt, and really do care. The app is great for sharing updates, pictures and communication. The food is healthy, nutritious and yummy (our son often had seconds) and the outdoor space is generous with lots of fun toys and changing activities.
Their SEND expertise is invaluable, deeply compassionate and helped guide us along the way. We're so grateful for the safe, nurturing environment they've created for our son and the support provided to us over the years. His School have even commented on how well they have done getting him ready.
We were very sad to leave for School and miss the whole team - they are amazing!

Bright Horizons Sale Day Nursery and Preschool
from Emily J (Mother of Child) published on 30 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I honestly couldn't be happier with the care my daughter has received since joining this nursery. From the very beginning, the team has gone above and beyond to make both her and myself feel comfortable and settled. The staff are so caring and attentive, and I feel reassured every single day knowing

she is in such safe and nurturing hands.
I really value how detailed the handovers are at drop off and pick up - nothing ever feels rushed, and I always feel fully informed about how her day has gone. They share updates throughout the day, which is such a comfort as a parent, especially when you're leaving your child in someone else's care. The staff genuinely take the time to understand my daughter's needs and my own thoughts as a parent, and that partnership makes a big difference. Already, I can see her thriving here, growing in confidence and happiness every day. I feel so greatful to have found a place where she is not only cared for but truly supported to flourish.

My child started here at 6 months old and is now 2 and a half. In my experience so far, all staff have been caring and attentive to my child.
Management are accessible, activities are varied and educational, and my child (who loves outdoors) gets plenty of opportunity to play outside.
Communication

via the app is easy, with quick responses from room staff and management.

Bright Horizons Sale Day Nursery and Preschool
from S B (Mother of Child) published on 24 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My child has been attending Bright Horizons for close to 12 months now, they are thriving having established strong relationships with staff, and care needs acknowledged and met promptly.

My child has known allergies and staff have been thorough and diligent in accommodating required precautions,

dietary exclusions and medication. I feel confident in the knowledge that the upmost is being done to protect my child, and protocols are consistently followed- validated by the fact I've had to turn up unannounced or at short notice on several occasions only to see the meal/ allergy protocols in action.

Educationally, I can see my child picking up new words, able to name body parts and shapes, and sing words to songs- things I haven't taught. The regular observations alongside daily app updates demonstrate staff take time to watch, acknowledge and encourage growth.

Overall very happy with the nursery, and would thoroughly recommend.

Overall Experience

DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS TO BRIGHT HORIZONS NURSERY!!!
Im absolutely horrified at the negligence my daughter and I have experienced today within the care of the nursery. I was informed by phone my child had been bitten on the foot by another child, this was shrugged off by staff and i was told it was

'one of those things' i went to picky child up from nursery to find she also had a bruise on her cheek, when asked how this had happened, none of the girls within my daughters care can explain how this has happened to a 17 month old baby. I had to ask them for an accident form to be filled out for the injury to her face, as I am seeking legal action for an investigation to be done of this nursery. They then lied on the accident form and insinuated the injury had 'potentially' been done by a toy oven door. This was absolutely not the case, and when first asked, they admitted none of them had an idea how the injury had happened. I have this verbal conversation recorded on my phone.

I have had the pleasure of dropping off and collecting my grand child from this amazing Nursery over the last two years. My grandson has been so happy at the nursery and is really sad to be leaving to go to school. From day one staff have shown warmth and comfort to him, and that means so much to us

as grandparents. The communication is excellent and my daughter always get updates on the app about how he has been and what his day has entailed. He will definitely miss Bright Horizons!
