Bright Horizons Peckham Rye Day Nursery and Preschool

The nursery has been a wonderful place for our son to play, learn and grow. The staff are a wonderful caring bunch - everyone who works there, from the staff in other rooms to the kitchen team - knows the children's' names, and it feels a really safe encouraging place for them. We're particularly happy with how our son's enthusiasm for reading has been encouraged, with books being found from other places to keep him stimulated. This is all coupled with a really healthy amount of good, proper play time in the excellent outside space- he loves going on the bikes in the garden and playing in the "mud kitchen", and the staff do everything they can to get the children outside at every opportunity.

Very detailed & thorough. Gained a very clear understanding of what each stage consists of.

What a lovely nursery - well looked after and monitored, lots of space and stimulation for the children. The staff were very welcoming & knowledgeable.

We have used this nursery for over four years and it has never disappointed. A very well-run nursery that puts the children first in all aspects. A choice that, as a family, we are very happy to have chosen this nursery.

We have been at the nursery for three years and the best review we can give is that the kids love it. The staff go above and beyond and the kids have developed in a safe environment. Would recommend.

Our son had a very positive experience in both nursery and preschool and we are very happy with how he has developed and prepared for school! He's made lots of good friends and enjoyed his time.

The staff here are, quite simply, brilliant!

We couldn't have asked for a better start to our girl's education. The care that has been provided by the teaching staff at the nursery has been brilliant. Apart from the period where communication over an incident in the nursery happened, we are very happy.

The staff did their best to make my daughter feel welcome from the beginning. Four members of staff, in particular, have all been really supportive and encouraging of her development and I feel that she's now ready for primary school. There were many days when she cried during drop-off but the staff always handled this sensitively. My daughter was a big fan of the food! Communication, verbally and via the app, has generally been brilliant. Many thanks Bright Horizons Peckham Rye Day Nursery and Preschool!

We couldn't have chosen a better nursery for our son. We have been so happy with the care provided to him since he started at 1 year old. The staff are fantastic and the management team is brilliant too. We have no hesitation in recommending to others.

Our eldest started school and hit the ground running which was simply the result of the teaching in preschool.

The nursery has fantastic staff who visibly care deeply about the babies/children they are looking after. The nursery has great indoor and outdoor space to allow the children/babies to move around plenty during the day and get fresh air. Very good catering and variety of food.

Some stability has returned after numerous months of instability. Staff as ever do their utmost and we have positive relationships with them. I feel drop-offs and pick-ups could be handled better with more detailed feedback as to the child’s day.

Overall, we are very happy with the nursery as my daughter is happy, her development is strong and she has a great relationship with the staff and her key worker.

Occasionally, I would like to see a rotation in toys. But I'm aware that I don't see all the available toys and resources. I did see that when a staff member noticed that there were no trains for the train set they immediately went to get some for the children.

There are a lot of structured, fun activities which my son absolutely loves. The food menu is fresh, healthy and always varied. Staff are really friendly and I really like how they have key workers to ensure there is always a friendly face for both children and parents. Would really recommend!

My son and daughter both attend this nursery - my son for almost 4 years and my daughter for almost 1. The staff are kind, caring and warm and both of my children are happy and settled and have lots of fun. The facilities are great with a large garden giving the children plenty of opportunity to be outside. The staff really go above and beyond organising many different activities. Also the effort to engage with parents and organise events such as the graduation party, as well as Christmas concert and various other events is really special and adds to the community feel of this nursery. I would definitely recommend to others.

A wonderful, welcoming nursery that both our children love. The staff are friendly and communicative and the space is fantastic, especially the outdoor play areas that are used whenever it’s not raining!

The nursery managed to remain open for much of last year which has been a lifesaver for working parents. The staff have remained consistent throughout which has made it far easier to ‘drop at the door’, now you never actually see inside. Staff are always so welcoming to the children and regardless of the room your child is in, everyone knows them by name and vice versa.

What a nursery! My words will never be enough for what I want to say about this amazing nursery. I could never have chosen a better nursery to put my daughter in. She is super happy in here, has many friends and loves the teachers. She has always been very picky with her food, but now she eats well. The whole team is fabulous. They are all very dedicated and care. I couldn't ask for better!
