We chose this nursery after attending an open day and meeting the staff and seeing the facilities. We are so glad we did. Our 14 month old daughter had her settling in period in September and the staff could not have been more supportive and reassuring. All of the staff at Columbus Courtyard have been
really welcoming. Our main interactions have been with the staff in the baby room who are so lovely and warm towards the children- it is such a nice thing for a parent to witness. The nursery manager and management staff are all amazing and have been such an asset to the nursery. Also the team who cook and clean too- it doesn't go unnoticed. Our daughter has slowly settled in and really enjoys it there. She could not be in a better place. It makes you happy as a parent to know that your child is well looked after by such a fantastic group of people. I would highly recommend this nursery.

We had a wonderful experience with Columbus Courtyard Bright Horizons nursery. Our daughter attended from 12 to 17 months and absolutely loved it. The staff - especially Evita, Tyler, and Anisha - were warm, attentive, and deeply caring. The nursery environment is safe, sunlit, and beautifully tucked
away, offering plenty of outdoor time. Our daughter was always excited to arrive and clearly felt secure and joyful throughout her time there. The admin support was excellent, and the daily photo updates were a lovely touch. We highly recommend this nursery and are genuinely grateful for the love and care they provided.

We couldn't be happier with Columbus Courtyard Bright Horizons Nursery. From the very first day, the team made us feel welcomed, supported, and truly listened to as parents. Our little one settle in so beautifully thanks to the patience, warmth, and genuine care shown by the staff. They have created
such a nurturing environment where she feels safe, loved, and encouraged to explore.
In just a short time, we've seen such a positive impact on her wellbeing and development-she has grown more confident, curious, and joyful every day. Her social skills have blossomed as she interacts with other children, and it's been amazing to see her learn new things through the thoughtful activities they prepare. The way the team celebrates her little milestones makes us feel so reassured that she is not only looked after but truly cherished.
Dropping her off each morning is easy knowing she is in such caring hands. We are so grateful to the whole team for the love and the dedication!

Our daughter has attended Bright Horizons for the past two months. We have felt really well supported during her settling in time and believe it helped her settle quickly. The staff are really friendly and show a genuine interest in the children. Management has been very supportive and responsive and
have set up a range of parents events (such as potty training, Valentine's Day play session etc) which have helped to build a strong community.

Bright Horizons Columbus Courtyard is a brilliant nursery. My child started it when he was 13 months old and now he is Preschool student. Staff and menagement made sure that he settled really easily and now coming to the nursery every day with pleasure. Me and my husband appreciate all staff hard work
in helping us rasing our kid especially with potty training, speech, writing. We do not have any family in UK than nursery is our support and place when we can ask for help regards our child development/behaviour as well as we can focus on our work. Every day in nursery is full of surprises, interesting experiences /exercises and events. I love that pupils go out every day and if weather is not great they have a big room to play in.

Everyone cares so deeply about the children and there are always many engaging and different things going on at nursery. My son loves the food at nursery and really enjoys all the
activities planned for each day. There is also ongoing thoughtful feedback on how my son is doing which I really value. The nursery is really well managed and organised and it's been a very positive experience for our whole family.

Bright Horizons Columbus Courtyard, what can I say? From changing over from an old nursery to this one was an amazing transition my son has blossomed and progressed so much in attending this nursery he loves the staff and can't wait to rush in the doors first thing in the morning to join his classmates
and teachers. The staff are amazing and have a personal connection to each child. They treat them as if they are their own. The learning and education is also amazing for the children especially going into preschool. My son has learnt so much about a different variety of things. The school is also kept well clean and immaculate at all times.

The nursery is clean, full of natural sunlight in the spacious classrooms, has a fantastic staff-to-child ratio with lots of personal attention and feedback, freshly made, nutritious meals, weekly theatre workshops and regular cooking experiences for children. Other perks include regular visits from
stylists specialising in child haircuts. While there is no dedicated outdoor play area, the preschool has a fantastic indoor garden where children can conquer obstacle courses, ride tricycles and explore an indoor sandbox. The children have daily outside excursions riding bikes and scooters around the large nearby courtyard, going to local playgrounds, enjoying the waterfront, playing ball in the grassy area in Westferry Circus, feeding ducks and exploring plant life in Crossrail Gardens. Additional recent special excursions include a boat ride and theatre show at the theatre, a Christmas puppet show at a local church and play sessions at the museum.

My daughter joined the nursery when she was 1 year old and has developed a lot since joining. The settling-in week went smoothly as the staff are very caring and make the transition easy.
The baby rooms are large and full of diverse activities for the babies to enjoy, they also have an indoor garden
with sensory activities the babies enjoy.
She is now very happy to go to the nursery every day and loves playing with her friends and the practitioners, she adores singing nursery rhymes and enjoys storytime a lot (she didn't like it before joining).
We are very pleased with the whole experience and are very sad that we will be leaving the nursery as we're relocating.

I can't recommend this nursery enough! My baby has gone to the nursery since the age of 11 months. From going to an open day, I knew it was the one. The nursery itself is so clean and the different rooms they have are very well-equipped and so lovely. The indoor gardens are my favourite. The little
sensory room they have is incredible. I think the most important thing about this nursery though is the staff. Every single member of staff greets you in the corridor whether they know you or not. Everyone interacts with your child and despite maybe not being in the same room as your child, they still know their names and have a cuddle etc. It's a lovely environment and my child loves going and doesn't want to come home. They have learnt so much since they have been there and so have I. I am confident every day, when I drop them off, that they will be in safe hands and have lots of fun. The settling-in process was so easy and they were there for me and my child when there were a few tears!

Both my son and my daughter attended this nursery at different times. They loved it.
My daughter has attended most recently from Jan '22 till Jul '24, and she has developed a genuine bond with the staff. She loves attending the nursery and her nursery "teachers and friends" are an integral part of
all the stories she tells us at home. We are confident that this experience has been formative and truly wonderful, shaping her in a very positive, independent way.

During my daughter's time here (since 1 year old) I have seen her develop and flourish in so many ways. I watched her go from being a little frightened of interacting with other children to making friends along her journey. Her preschool journey has been amazing to watch as she's come leaps and bounds.
The preschool staff have been so wonderful in supporting her SEN needs, creating an accepting, supportive and safe environment for my daughter. She has grown attached to the preschool team, as they are almost in sync with her needs and desires. Bright Horizons Columbus Courtyard Day Nursery and Preschool has an inclusive and supportive environment for children with additional needs and making sure my daughter has felt as accepted and understood like any child should. She has grown and developed into her own happy little person with the support from such wonderful staff.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.913)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.913) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Columbus Courtyard Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.913 for Bright Horizons Columbus Courtyard Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (327 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 358 Ratings = 4.913
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Columbus Courtyard Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 30 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 110 number of registered child places is 22, which has been reached with 30 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Hello, I'm Tyler, the Nursery Manager at Columbus Courtyard.


With a master's degree in Childhood Studies and a background as a qualified teacher, I've explored various roles like nursery nurse, mentor, holiday club manager, nanny, teaching assistant, and deputy manager. The early years are where I feel most at home, finding immense reward in giving children a strong start to flourish into well-rounded individuals.


My focus lies in supporting children's emotional well-being and instilling vital skills like co and self-regulation, crucial for their future resilience. Additionally, I'm passionate about metacognition and fostering key learning behaviours in the early years for lifelong support. Beyond direct work with children, I thrive on supporting families, building robust parent partnerships, and recognising parents as lifelong influencers in a child's learning journey.
