This is a fantastic nursery - our daughter started in the baby room & is soon to move up to toddlers. We were originally planning to move our daughter to somewhere closer to where we live when she was 2 but we have been so pleased with the nursery that we think it's worth the longer walk & wont be moving her. We find all the staff extremely caring, they know her very well & she has learnt so much while being there. The nursery is very well run & the children seem very happy there. We are so pleased we chose this nursery.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We're thrilled your daughter is thriving.
We were sad to move our little one due to relocating and already miss BH Earlsfield. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone considering childcare in the area. Just make sure you sign up early as it's rightfully in high demand!
We're delighted to hear your lovely review. It's wonderful to know your daughter enjoyed her time at Bright Horizons Southfields Day Nursery and Preschool - thank you for your recommendation.
My husband and I can't recommend this nursery highly enough. We always felt reassured that our daughter was in great hands. The level of care and attention she received is second to none - it's honestly been the next best thing to having family take care of her. Staff are incredibly warm, nurturing and attentive. They go above and beyond to create a positive and supportive environment. Our daughter has always come home happy and well-fed, and we've always felt at ease knowing she is being cared for by wonderful people. The nursery is always clean and welcoming (with a recent refurb). The activities they provide are fantastic - when they send photos of our daughter she always looks so happy and engaged. We love how they celebrate diversity and all the different cultures - this was really important to us. Sadly we've relocated out of area, but we can't thank them enough for the peace of mind they've given us and wonderful experiences they've provided our daughter. Thank you to the manager and team - miss you already!
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so happy to hear that your daughter thrived with us and that our team provided the care and support you were looking for. The team will miss you all and we truly appreciate the trust you placed in the team. Best wishes in your new area, and thank you again for your kind words!
A wonderful nursery run by an incredible manager. The staff are obviously all happy and care so warmly and enthusiastically for every child. We have been parents at the nursery since 2018 and my daughter and son have had six very happy years between them. They were always happy to go to nursery and had so much fun. The range of activities is really good and the children also play a lot of outside games in the small garden/yard as well as in the local park. They were both also very well prepared for school. The manager is warm, kind and can-do and we will miss her and her lovely staff very much.
Thank you for your heartfelt review! We're so grateful for your kind words and thrilled to hear that your children have had such a happy experience at our nursery over the past six years. The team will miss your family and appreciate your support throughout the years!
The staff are so attentive, they care for the children as if they were their own. They are proactive in updating the app during the day, very thorough run down of the day in the evening (if you benefit from this, very parent lead) and regular parent/key worker evening to discuss child development and even the odd parent social. They manage class transitions thoughtfully with so much care.
The nursery has had a recent refurb which has modernised the rooms.
Our two girls have been so happy there for many years. My eldest recently transitioned to reception at school and the prep for this was second to none! She was more than ready for school.
Early childhood care is not cheap but Bright Horizons Southfields Day Nursery and Preschool is worth every penny!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled you chose Bright Horizons Southfields for your girls. It's great to know our attentive staff and communication have made a positive impact. Your support means so much to the team and we're delighted to have helped your eldest transition to school!
Our son joined the baby room just a few months ago and we've had a great experience so far. We felt really supported through the settling-in period, the staff are really caring and they all have something to say about our son's day. The nursery was also renovated just a few months ago, everything looks new and fresh!
Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear that your son's settling-in period has been so positive and that our caring staff are making a difference. It's great to know you appreciate the recent renovations as well! The team and Bright Horizons look forward to continuing this journey with you and your son.
If anyone is looking for a wonderful nursery, please look no further. All the staff that work here are excellent. Their tremendous care, support, dedication, kindness and warmth make Bright Horizons Southfields Day Nursery and Preschool a special place. They really go above and beyond to support children in their development and prepare them for school. The nursery manager and deputy manager are exceptional and make the nursery feel like a big family. We always felt very comfortable to discuss or address any worries we had. Our son is starting reception this September and we will definitely miss Bright Horizons.
Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you've had such a positive experience at Bright Horizons Southfields. It's wonderful to know that our team's care and dedication have made a difference in your son's development. The team will miss you too and appreciate your heartfelt recommendation. Best of luck to your son in reception!
This nursery is incredible and my son is so happy there. The staff are amazing, caring and nurturing and you can tell that they really love and care for the children. They always do lots of fun activities to help their development. Since joining, my son's vocabulary has increased drastically. It is so nice knowing that he is cared for in the same way that I would care for him and when I come to pick him up, he runs away as he doesn't want to come home because he is having such a fun time! I would wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to anyone. In my opinion, it is the blueprint for what a nursery should be.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear how happy your son is at the nursery and how much he's grown, especially with his vocabulary. It's great to know he's having so much fun and being well cared for. Thank you for your recommendation.
The manager and her team run this nursery exceptionally well. The children are, without doubt, at the forefront of everything, we're certainly very lucky to have our daughters go to nursery here. The key workers are all brilliant, always smiling, there is such a warm, happy feeling at the nursery.
Thank you for your review! We're so pleased to hear that you feel your daughters are in good hands and that the warm, happy environment at the nursery stands out to you. Thank you for your kind words.
The attention to detail is noticeable every single day which we appreciate. The whole nursery team is extremely engaging with all the kids and goes the extra mile to ensure babies are happy.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so pleased that you've noticed the positive impact of the renovations and appreciate the attention to detail. It's great to hear that our team's dedication is making a difference for your child. We truly value your recommendation!
My daughter is 1 year old and has recently started at Bright Horizons Southfields Day Nursery and Preschool and she has loved it since the minute she arrived, as have I. We were both welcomed by the wonderful manager and all the staff have been so friendly and helpful. They have all helped with the transition and made the process so much easier. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough. It also has recently been refurbished and looks great.
Thank you for your kind review! We're so glad to hear that you and your daughter have had a great experience at Bright Horizons Southfields. It's wonderful that the team made the transition smooth, and we're happy you're enjoying the refurbished space. We appreciate your recommendation! Thank you for your recommendation.
We love Bright Horizons Southfields. The staff are all amazing and really get to know each child's preferences. Whenever we've asked for anything they've been able to do it - if it's his routine changing or we are picking him up early so they bring his lunch forward. They really tailor it to you and make going back to work so much easier as we know he is well looked after and having fun. There is also a big focus on learning and development and messy play which is great for little ones. It's definitely on the pricier side which I think is fairly normal for the area but the quality has made up for this.
Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear that you love Bright Horizons Southfields and that our staff's personalised care has made your experience easier. It's great to know that the focus on learning, development, and fun activities like messy play has been a hit. We appreciate your understanding about the cost and are glad you feel the quality makes it worthwhile.
We have been so happy at Bright Horizons since joining over 18 months ago. It is incredibly well run by the manager. The nursery has a personal, caring and loving feel. The staff are brilliant and consistent, which has helped our child feel settled, happy and confident going in every day.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you've been so happy with Bright Horizons and that our caring, consistent staff have helped your child feel settled and confident. We appreciate your kind words and support!
I would highly recommend it to anyone considering a nursery for their child.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is wonderful to hear your grandson thriving at our nursery and is always busy learning! Thank you for recommending us.
If parents are looking for a nursery for their child, please look no further, couldn't recommend Bright Horizons Southfields Day Nursery and Preschool enough! As we enter our final few months, prior to our daughter going off to school in September, I wanted to share the fabulous experience and the excellent childcare we have had from all the staff at the nursery, led by the nursery manager. Our daughter has been at Southfields since 2020 and has thoroughly enjoyed her time, learning, developing, making new friends and most of all, being happy! We will certainly miss the team at Southfields.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Your review means a lot to us and we are grateful for your trust in our nursery's education and care as your daughter embarks on their significant milestones in September.
It is expensive for the facilities/space - the outside space is small and the baby room is also a bit small. But everything else is fantastic.
Really love this nursery and all the ladies that work here. The care and love for the children are exceptional and the manager runs a tight ship and is very organised. Glad we chose to send our daughter here.
Our son loves the nursery and we know he is very well looked after and cared for. The level of different activities done by the staff is great. Communication from management is good and management is lovely and very involved in all the kids' well-being and care. The outside area is small but has plenty of different toys. Outside activities are limited and it would be nice if more advantage could be taken of the park nearby.
We have noticed how in the past year my son has been so much happier than before. He truly enjoys his time at nursery, always runs in at drop off and has the biggest smile at pick up. At home, he will continue to sing and play things he learns at the nursery.
Our son is in the process of getting an ASD/autism diagnosis and everyone at Bright Horizons have been incredibly helpful and supportive, we truly found the best place for our little one. We really feel everyone from management, carers and cooks really do care about him, we feel very fortunate to be here and know we couldn’t have found a better place to help him develop and get him ready for big school.
Thank you to everyone that works here.
Generally very positive. Our son is well taken care of in a stimulating and nurturing environment. We have also enjoyed the opportunity to visit and spend time at the nursery. All staff that we have encountered have been friendly and approachable.

I have been working with Bright Horizons for 10 years and hold a Level 3 qualification in childcare and education and a Level 5 degree in leadership and management. I started as a nursery assistant making all my way to nursery manager. I have experience working with all age groups and I enjoy providing inclusive play and learning opportunities for all children attending the nursery and maintaining a stimulating and enjoyable environment to ensure every child has the best possible start in their educational life and to ensure their safety.
I am proud to support my team professionally so they can achieve their own goals and flourish in their own professional career.
I have been working in childcare for over 10 years, I gained valuable experience working in a variety of childcare settings from children's centres, primary schools, after-school clubs and nurseries. I hold a level 3 in childcare and education.
I joined Bright Horizons in 2015 and I made my way from Bank Staff to Deputy manager. I started at Wandsworth Day Nursery, Southfields, Chiswick Park coming back now to Southfields as Deputy.
