Both my children have attended Highams Park Bright Horizons, with the youngest just graduating. He has thrived during his time in pre school, and benefited from a nurturing, caring and committed staff group who offered fantastic learning opportunities and activities that really developed and encouraged his interests. It was evident that the staff really got to know my son and formed strong, supportive and nurturing bonds with him. He was so happy there, he didn't want to leave at the end of the day!
Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear that both of your children enjoyed their time with us and that your son thrived during his preschool years. It's lovely to know our nurturing team helped support his interests, development and confidence, while building such strong bonds with him. Thank you for trusting us with your family's early years journey.
In terms of downsides, BH is a little limited in terms of outside space and some promised outings to local woodland and park have never materialised due to staff shortages. But these are minor quibbles. For me, the utmost important thing is they put a smile on my daughter's face every single day.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear your daughter enjoys her time with us and has built such strong relationships with both our team and her friends. We appreciate your feedback and are thrilled to know that seeing her happy and smiling each day gives you confidence in the care and support we provide.
Everyone is so friendly, welcoming and genuinely caring, and it's clear how much they enjoy what they do. The team has been brilliant at keeping us updated on our daughter's progress and making us feel confident that she's in the best hands.
Seeing how excited she is to go in each morning says it all. We would highly recommend Bright Horizons to any parent looking for a caring, nurturing and professional nursery. Thank you to the whole team for everything you do!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear how happy your daughter is and that she has settled in so well with us. Knowing you feel confident in our care means so much to the team. Thank you for your recommendation and kind words.
We have two children at Highams Park Bright Horizons and are so happy with our experience. The staff are kind and loving, and the kids seem well entertained with a variety of tasks. We just completed preschool graduation and could tell that there are so many strong bonds that have been built over the years.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear that both of your children have enjoyed their time with us and that you've experienced such caring and supportive relationships with our team. It's especially lovely to hear that the preschool graduation highlighted the strong bonds built over the years. We truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation.
Really lovely nursery, my child has gone from strength to strength since attending and absolutely loves it there. Staff are amazing, genuinely care, activities excellent and food great. Shout out to the preschool staff who are just incredible
Thank you for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear that your child is thriving and loves their time with us. It's wonderful to know that our caring team, engaging activities and nutritious meals have made such a positive impact. We'll be sure to share your kind words with our preschool team. Thank you for your support.
They have invested a lot in the garden space and there is AC in all the rooms so it is a lovely environment for the children.
The app too is helpful as we can keep on track with what the kids are up to.
Thank you for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear how much you value our caring team, welcoming environment and nursery facilities. It's wonderful to know the app helps you stay connected to your child's day. We truly appreciate your kind words and support.
The learning activities are excellent and have helped my children develop their understanding of the world, build confidence and grow in independence. As a parent, I have also received valuable advice and support from the team, including guidance around medical matters, which has been incredibly helpful and reassuring.
I would absolutely recommend Bright Horizons to other families. The dedication, warmth and professionalism of the staff make it a fantastic environment for children to learn and thrive.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear that both of your children have had such a positive experience with us. It's lovely to know our team's care, support and dedication have helped your children grow in confidence and independence.
We had seen employees outside smoking, I had even seen one employee take a child alone, to the bathroom, despite being told no child would ever be left alone one on one.
When my daughter had a bump to their head, they had no idea what happened as they hadn't seen it.
After the horrific incident that occured at their sister branch, we naturally had some questions regarding the safe guarding of Highams Park branch.
The manager called us back and said given it was only one employee out of thousands, they were doing well.
Out daughter only attended twice a week, for a matter of house, but we pulled our daughter out that day.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand that you left the nursery in December 2025 and we are very sorry to hear that you left feeling concerned. We understand how important it is for families to feel fully reassured about their child's care.

Both my children have attended Bright Horizons in Highams Park since the age of two. My eldest is now 8 and the youngest is 4 and in the pre-school room. Both children have thrived at the nursery, learned lots, built confidence and made excellent friends. The staff are kind and engaged and build strong relationships with all the children and their families. We have had nothing but positive things to say about the nursery and will be sad when the time comes for our youngest to leave in September.
The outdoor play space is excellent and the children often play out for a lot of the day which is great to be outside. There's mud kitchens and other toys.
We couldn't be happier with the nursery - it is a very nurturing environment and my son has made great connections with the staff and children.
Thank you for your kind words. We're so pleased to hear how much your son enjoys his time in the toddler room and outdoor spaces, and that you feel so happy with the nurturing environment and care from the team.
Third child currently in toddler room, our older two having graduated in the last three and a half years. Can't fault anything, all have had/are having a great experience and the nursery has set them up really well for the transition to reception.
Thank you for your kind review! We're thrilled to hear your children have had a great experience and that the nursery has supported their transition to reception. We appreciate your trust and support!
My son is always happy to come to nursery and loves all the staff and his friends. He is increasingly confident, chatty and independent. Really growing into his own - the amount of activities and learning topics they cover are brilliant! The food is varied and delicious too. Thanks everyone, highly recommend and trust you!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad to hear your son is happy, confident, and thriving at nursery. It's great to know he's enjoying the activities, learning topics and meals. We truly appreciate your trust and recommendation!
Our toddler loves going to his Bright Horizons Highams Park Nursery and Preschool because the staff are so friendly and caring and they do lots of fun and creative activities. The nursery has excellent and thorough management. The waiting time to get a place was two and a half years but it was worth it. The outside play area is slightly on the smaller side but it doesn't seem to bother the kids at all.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that your toddler loves attending Bright Horizons Highams Park Nursery and Preschool. Thank you for your feedback on the outdoor play area; we're committed to providing a fantastic experience for all our children.
They provide excellent care for our son but also offer emotional support for our entire family.
Their commitment to maintaining open communication, keeping us informed about our son's day-to-day activities, and being readily available to address any concerns or provide updates were invaluable to us. Their genuine care and unwavering support extended beyond the walls of the nursery, making us feel like we were part of a caring and compassionate community.
I cannot thank the staff enough for their kindness, generosity, and genuine concern for our well-being during a challenging time in our lives. Their dedication to their profession and their genuine love for the children in their care make them true heroes in our eyes.
Your heartfelt words mean the world to us! We're deeply touched by your gratitude and appreciation for our staff. Thank you for recognising our efforts and for allowing us to be a part of your journey.
My son has started the nursery a month ago, the staff has supported him and us to settle into nursery so well. Just being at the nursery, he has been so busy with all the different activities they provide. The communication is brilliant in what he been doing during the day as well as what he has been learning. Thank you.
Hello, thank you for your five star feedback and for sharing your experience with us.
Bright Horizons have been amazing to my son and he gets all the help he needs. Staff are amazing and very helpful and we get the daily updates. Management is always helpful and very supportive. My son is always very keen on going into the nursery and enjoying the time there.
Our son has been going to this nursery for 6 months now and they have been absolutely brilliant with him. His progress has been exceptional for the 3 days a week he goes. All of the staff are super friendly and helpful and the facilities are excellent. We can monitor his daily food intake, sleep, nappies and pictures of activities through their mobile app. The food they give the children is varied and well-balanced. We couldn't ask for more from a nursery.
Thank you for letting us know how pleased you are with our nursery. Once again, thank you very much for taking the time to review us.
I would highly recommend Bright Horizons Highams Park. I’ve had 2 children at the nursery and have been through all the rooms (babies, toddlers and preschool). Both mine have loved it. The staff are so caring, reassuring and on the ball, they really know the children and look after them so well. They do tons of fun activities and help prepare the kids for school. We feel really lucky!
Highams Park Nursery is lovely. The staff really do care about all the children and families! They were very supportive and flexible during our daughter's settling in and have always been there to give advice on everything, from simple changes in routine to toilet training. We are kept up to date with our daughter's learning with regular development reviews and observations as well as daily updates about activities, sleep, food and nappy changes/toilet visits all within the family app, allowing me and my partner to check how our little one is doing at any time of the day. Our daughter absolutely loves being at the nursery, she talks about the staff and her friends and the activities they have been doing all the time at home!
My son has been going to the nursery since he was 8 months old. At first, he found settling in difficult, but the staff in babies did their best to help him settle. Over the years he has really come out with his personality and is now a very confident little boy. He has loved being at nursery and all the staff has been like a second family to him. He has recently started school and has said that he misses his nursery.
