Really happy with our experience at Elm Grove so far. Have experienced 2 other Bright Horizons and this is by far the best. Great management (makes such a difference!), genuinely caring staff and nice facilities.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We debated long and hard as to whether our son should join our daughter at her nursery but we're really happy with our choice. He is so happy to arrive at Elm Grove, pointing at the way to go on the way, and I have peace of mind leaving him there knowing he's in such a warm, caring and nuturing environment.
The amount of effort put into making sure they enjoy the varied daily activities is wonderful to see, and certainly makes it tough for me to keep him as entertained on the weekend (which is a good thing). Thank you so much for everything you've done to settle him in so well, now we've got to hope he enjoys the other Elm Grove rooms as much.

Our daughter loves nursery. The staff are welcoming and kind. They are flexible and understand that things can change some weeks. Our daughter does lots of fun activities and is encourage to be independent in pre-school. She always has great stores from her day & is learning lots of new things. Reading
and stories are important and she is encouraged to keep developing her language.

We have 2 children at Bright Horizons Elm Grove and we are very pleased with the nursery. The classrooms and Gardens are well designed, clean and tidy. The nursery is well run and has very approachable management who are always happy to help and answer any questions. Most importantly the classroom staff

We are extremely happy with Bright Horizons Elm Grove and the nurturing environment the staff have worked so hard to create is fantastic - both my children have loved / love going in daily and have developed great relationships with staff and other children. The team are very creative with daily activities
& the rooms are always very clean, have engaging displays and tuff trays set up. The garden allows a great space for outdoor toys and activities, and is a very safe, fun addition to the nursery rooms.
The staff show so much care & empathy towards all the children and there is a genuine interest in their well being and affection towards them. The children are also served a great variety of nutritious, healthy meals and snacks.
We are so grateful to everyone at the nursery who really create a family atmosphere and a second home for our children who have flourished so much under their care.

We are extremely pleased with the Elm Grove Nursery. The staff are very attentive and caring, and they provide excellent emotional support to the children. My daughter always goes to the nursery with joy and returns home with a smile. She really enjoys the meals too - the chefs cook delicious food.
The nursery also has a lovely garden where the children can play happily. She has now completed her 8th month here, and we truly appreciate all the care and support she received.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Elm Grove. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt a sense of warmth and care that has only grown stronger over time. Our son had a bit of a shaky start, but thanks to the incredible support and dedication of the staff, he settled right in and
now looks forward to going every day.
A special shoutout to one staff member in particular and the team in Angelfish for their exceptional work. They go above and beyond to create wonderful experiences for the kids every single day. Whether it's through engaging activities, creative projects, or simply providing a nurturing environment, they have made a significant positive impact on our son's development and happiness.
Thank you to the Angelfish team, for your unwavering commitment to the children's well-being and for making our son's nursery experience truly outstanding. We are grateful for everything you do!

I can not rate Bright Horizons, Elm Grove highly enough. My little one started at 14 months in the baby room and settled so well. He has changed rooms and has been welcomed into that new team with enthusiasm. His confidence has grown and he loves being there.
There are numerous activities every day
including playing with water, sand, books, paints and other toys. He has developed tremendously under their care and attention.
The updates via the app are great to receive as well as observations around his development. The team are full of energy, supportive and genuinely caring. Thank you to the entire team for creating such a nurturing and educational environment.

We as a family are forever grateful to all staff at Bright Horizons Elm Grove Day Nursery and Preschool. Having had two children at the nursery, there is no other place I would rather my child be. They provide growth, play, structure, safety (above all safeguard and empathy throughout). The care given
is world class and we knew we are also in safe hands with their top chef as one of our children has a severe allergy. The love/care again has been 100% and has taken the anxiety away due to their safety record.

My children have attended Bright Horizons Elm Grove Day Nursery and Preschool since October 2021 and I couldn't recommend it enough. The staff are wonderful - kind, considerate, fun, excellent educators and a wonderful team!
The nursery itself has good-sized rooms and plenty of outdoor space which
is fantastic. The food is nutritious and the updates on the app are great. The kids have a lot of fun and enjoy lots of exciting, challenging and rewarding experiences - which create well-rounded young people.
My eldest is sad to be leaving and moving to big school but is in a much better position due to the support and compassion shown to them by all the staff throughout their entire Elm Grove journey.
The Elm Grove community is a pleasure to be a part of and we're thankful to all the staff for all they do.

After a challenging experience at another nursery, we were anxious about finding the right place for our 9-month-old. The moment we walked into Bright Horizons Elm Grove Day Nursery and Preschool, we knew we found something special.
Three members of staff, in particular, and management have been nothing
short of amazing. They welcomed us with open arms, and have shown an incredible level of care to our son's well-being. We especially appreciate how they've worked with us on nap schedules, ensuring he gets the rest he needs, and even adjusting their routines when necessary.
Facilities at Elm Grove are exceptional. The separate sleep room provides a peaceful environment that helps our son rest comfortably. They place a high priority on creating a safe, nurturing space.
What truly makes it stand out is the genuine love and attention the staff give. Every morning, our son is greeted with warm smiles. It's heartwarming to know that he is surrounded by caregivers who not only meet his needs but do so with such warmth and affection.

Our 8-month-old son started at Elm Grove in February 2024 when I returned to work and we have been absolutely blown away by everything this lovely nursery has to offer. The staff in Angelfish are extremely professional and amazing with the children, the amount of thought and effort that goes into every
day is outstanding, especially the range of activities they have the children doing. Our son is completely settled in his class and loves going - his movement and social skills have come in leaps and bounds in eight weeks thanks to the patient and supportive staff. Cannot recommend highly enough.

My son joined this nursery a year ago at the age of 11 months. He has thrived here, the staff in both baby and now toddler rooms couldn't be more engaging and friendly. They went out of their way to allocate extra settling-in sessions to make both me and the baby comfortable before formally starting.
As he has moved into new classes, they have managed the transition seamlessly. The staff are so full of energy and get to know each child individually, and have lots of differing activities each day to encourage learning, appropriate to the age, with lots of updates on the app with photos and descriptions. Food is cooked onsite every day. Rooms and toys are always clean, bright and inviting. They have lots of outdoor space also for them to run around and they use it regularly, which is a rarity in this area. Communications around nursery events and billing etc is clear and organised, the management team are very on top of things. Price wise it's fair for the area. He is really happy there.

We are so happy with Bright Horizons Elm Grove for our daughter. We visited a lot of nurseries and Elm Grove stood out with how kind, welcoming and authentic the staff were. We were concerned with finding a nursery that was an inclusive environment as same-sex parents. Elm Grove have been exceptionally
thoughtful in this regard, and would recommend it to any other same-sex parents looking for a nursery. It took a little time for our daughter to settle in and get used to nursery, the staff were so great in helping her settle in. She loves the food from the chef, the activities and her pals there. She absolutely adores the staff, and it is such a privilege to be able to go to work knowing your child is safe, supported and happy. Followed our gut feeling in choosing Elm Grove and don’t regret it.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.917)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.917) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Elm Grove 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.917 for Bright Horizons Elm Grove Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (242 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 264 Ratings = 4.917
  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 Elm Grove Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 22 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 99 number of registered child places is 19.8, which has been reached with 22 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.
