The nursery from the start made us feel at ease and worked really hard and diligently to make sure our daughter settled in well. Her room adults and leaders (roses) are top tier and really look after her and we couldn't be happier with our first 6 months there. The managers are really responsive to any questions we have or when we need to alter things based on our change in schedule
Thank you for your kind feedback. We're delighted your daughter has settled in so well and that you've felt supported by our team. We're pleased to hear you're happy with your experience so far.
What stood out most was how they adapted to my child's individual needs, including tailoring nap times rather than following a rigid schedule. It is clear that the staff genuinely care about the children and take the time to understand each child's personality.
We have now been at the nursery for almost a year, and my child is thriving. The facilities are always clean, and the team consistently provides fun, engaging activities. We are also very pleased with the healthy and varied meals offered. I couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough.
We're proud to support you both on this journey.
We are delighted with the care that our daughter has been receiving at Bright Horizons in Tooting. The quality of care and the lovely staff make all the difference. It is a very happy place! She is so excited to get to nursery everyday.
We truly appreciate your kind words about our team and care.
We have had a wonderful experience at the Looking Glass nursery. The staff have been empathetic, deeply invested in our child's development and professional. Our experience has been wonderful and would definitely recommend this to all friends and family.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear your positive experience and that our team has supported your child's development so well.
The care they provide for babies is exceptional. They are incredibly patient, attentive, and warm, always taking the time to learn her routines, likes, and little personality. It is clear she feels safe, loved, and secure; she now goes in happily every morning, which means the world to us.
The nursery is spotlessly clean, safe, and designed perfectly for little ones to explore and develop. We really appreciate the regular updates and photos throughout the day - it's lovely to see what she is getting up to and know she is being well looked after. In the short time she has been here, we have already seen her grow in confidence and start reaching new milestones.
It's wonderful to hear she feels happy and secure, and that you enjoy the updates and seeing her progress. Thank you for trusting us with her care.
We adore Bright Horizons Tooting and feel incredibly lucky that our son is being so well looked after. The staff are kind and caring and it always feels welcoming at pick up. Our son will leave the nursery at the end of August and we are very sad that our time at BH is over. It takes very special people to work with children of this age and Bright Horizons Tooting is full to the brim of special people. Thank you x

Bright Horizons Tooting Looking Glass has been a fantastic setting for my boy to nurture and flourish. One of the best things about it is that they have a few absolute super star staff members at each key stage room, who we are so grateful for and have without doubt had a very positive influence on our child's experience and development.

I am very happy sending my Son to this nursery. I am confident that is he well looked after and is given everything he needs during his time there. He is confident and learns the necessary skills for his development at bright horizons. He has made great friends and loves the use of the large outdoor spaces they have to offer.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so happy to hear that your son is thriving at Bright Horizons and enjoying his time with us. It's wonderful to know he feels confident, is developing essential skills, and making great friends.
We are absolutely loving our experience of Tooting Bright Horizons so far! Our daughter has settled so well thanks to the brilliant team and management and we're really happy we chose this nursery for her. She's already coming on so well because of the nursery and we're excited to see her development over the next few months.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so happy to hear that your daughter has settled in well and is thriving at Tooting Bright Horizons. We're excited to continue supporting her development and look forward to seeing her grow even more in the coming months!
The staff are just amazing as well- always so welcoming and friendly. We've had such a good experience so far and couldn't recommend them enough!
Thank you for your five-star feedback and for sharing your experience with us. Thank you for your recommendation.
He has built strong bonds with all staff members, even those that don't work in his room. He has developed so much since being at Bright Horizons (confidence, feeding self, activities outside his comfort zone). The team go to lots of effort creating engaging activities and provide detailed reports of how he is getting on. My partner and I love looking at all the photos of what our son is up to throughout the day and details of what he has eaten/how much he has slept etc.
Sending your little one to nursery for the first time can be super scary but the team at Bright Horizons are absolutely outstanding and I cannot recommend them enough.
Hello! Your review, complete with a five-star rating, is a wonderful validation of our commitment to providing a nurturing and stimulating learning environment for all our children. Thank you for recommending us!
Our daughter loves Bright Horizons Tooting Looking Glass Day Nursery and Preschool, the care and attention she receives is excellent. The variety of activities daily is much more than we could do at home. We see her development every day. The communication with parents is great via the Bright Horizons app which, as she has allergies, is very reassuring. We cannot fault the nursery or the staff.
Thank you for your five-star feedback and for sharing your experience with us.
As parents, you want your child to be in a safe environment where they can learn, make friends and really enjoy their day. I would say this is the experience my child has on a display basis.
It is important to note the support from the managers is integral to the care and management of a nursery. Due to management, during my tour, I knew this was the right place. Daily, my child wants to engage with them which highlights to me they too are involved with spending time and getting to know the children in their care.
Overall, a positive experience.
Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear that your first experience with your child in nursery has been positive. Thank you for choosing us and sharing your positive experience!
The facilities are great, big, spacious rooms, with gardens and different activities every day to help the children progress and have fun. The staff here go above and beyond in their care and fondness of the children.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience with us! We're delighted to hear that your daughter is thriving at our nursery and that you appreciate the efforts of our dedicated staff.
My son is 4 in pre-school and started when he was 6 months old and so did my daughter who is currently 21 months.
We have nothing but great things to say about the staff. They have been the most kind, supportive and amazing extensive "village" we could have hoped for. We are so lucky to have found this place and I will forever be grateful to the staff for knowing how to help us raise amazing kids but also keeping them safe: our son had a seizure episode when he was 18 months old and they did everything they should have done and beyond, looking after him while myself and my husband were travelling as fast as we could back from our place of work. The hospital was impressed with how they followed procedure while clearly looking after our child whilst waiting for us.
I cannot recommend this nursery enough and would never change for the world.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with Bright Horizons Tooting Looking Glass Day Nursery and Preschool! It's heartwarming to hear about the exceptional care and support provided by the staff, especially during challenging times. Thank you for your recommendation.
Bright Horizons Tooting Looking Glass Day Nursery and Preschool has been brilliant for both my children but for my son especially. He has struggled with speech delay and sensory processing issues, the nursery staff (the deputy manager in particular) have put in place so much support and guidance to help him and have also been a huge support to us, as parents, too. We highly recommend the nursery to anyone who asks!
That's wonderful to hear! It's heartening to know that Bright Horizons Tooting Looking Glass Day Nursery and Preschool has made such a positive impact on your family's life, especially in supporting your son's specific needs. Thank you for sharing your experience and recommendation!
Very happy nursery with excellent staff. Our eldest loved it and our 2nd (10 months) has recently started and is also having a fantastic time. The rooms are a good size and well resourced. The garden area is great too. We would highly recommend Bright Horizons Tooting.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback and for recommending us!
Could not speak more highly of this nursery. It’s coming up to a year since my son started attending - the nursery staff have been so kind, welcoming, flexible and importantly lovely to my little boy. He absolutely loves going - the range of food and activities is excellent. Not a bad word to say. Strongly recommend!
Thank you so much for your positive feedback and for recommending us!
We chose Bright Horizons Tooting because, from our first visit, it was clear the children are treated with love. I had a tricky sleeper and they were so respectful of the extra support she needed when she started at 11 months and they have been nothing but supportive since. We are now expecting our second child and the staff have been doing lots of practice with baby dolls and getting her ready. The facilities are brilliant but the staff are the real stars.
Hello, we are deeply touched by your kind words and thrilled that you chose Bright Horizons Tooting for your family. Thank you so much for your positive feedback!
