Bright Horizons Highams Park Day Nursery and Preschool

This nursery is truly excellent. My son attended the preschool room and I couldn’t be happier with the level of care and attention he received. The staff are fantastic and they have a fantastic learning structure in place too. A truly nurturing environment where all voices - parents and children’s are heard.

Our daughter has attended from18 months to 4 years old and she loves every day there. All her advancements have been captured and she's grown into a wonderful person. SHe's had great staff around her and made friends. We couldn't be happier with her time at Bright Horizons and neither could she.

I love this nursery. The team who work here are genuinely lovely and they really care for your child. My son attended here before my daughter (who has just left for school) and they both adored the staff and I cannot recommend them enough. The facilities are great and are well maintained. The children always had a varied day and were never bored. They handled the COVID situation incredibly well and did everything within their control to ensure as little disruption to families as possible. The food is also fantastic, I loved hearing about how well my little girl ate! The train station is also in close proximity which is very handy for a parent who has to commute. My daughter has additional medical and speech and language needs and I couldn't fault how the team approached her care. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough!

In terms of learning, the preparation for starting school has been so helpful. My daughter can write and has been learning phonics at nursery.

My child has loved Bright Horizons from age 1 to age 4. The staff have been so caring and professional and always treated her as an individual. Every day I've felt happy knowing she was so well cared for. The admin side of things has always been very efficient and the food excellent. Staff give regular feedback and are great at involving parents. Moves from one room to another have been well supported and staff turnover pretty low. I would fully recommend them to any parent.

My daughter has absolutely loved her time at Highams Park Nursery and we will be very sorry to say goodbye when she leaves to start school. Since day one all the staff have been kind, caring and full of affection for the children who attend the nursery. They have taught my daughter beyond the curriculum in terms of how to be kind, how to respect others and the importance of listening and learning. We've seen her develop a strong friendship group there and a lot of love for her carers in the preschool room and beyond. It's a very special place and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a nursery.

My child started at pre-school room last November. The educators in his room are fantastic, really specialised, they made him feel very welcome and he settled in really quickly. There are so many child-friendly systems in this nursery, communication with parents is really good (management and room leaders are swift to help) and staff, in general, are friendly, upbeat and professional. My child is absolutely thriving here and looks forward to attending nursery.

This place is brilliant. My daughter is a notoriously fussy eater but she eats everything that's put in front of her here...not sure what that says about my cooking! The staff are kind and creative and I really feel like she is learning a lot by attending here. I know my daughter will be very sad to leave here when she starts school because she loves it.

My son attended Bright Horizons nursery in Highams Park from when he was one year old to four years old. I couldn't have hoped for a better environment for him. The staff were fantastic and he learnt so much while he was there. I would highly recommend this nursery to others.

We consider ourselves very lucky to have got a place at Bright Horizons Highams Park. Our son has been here since he was 1 and has been very happy. He has been in all of the 3 rooms and the care and development/support had been fantastic in all of them. He will be very sorry to leave the brilliant staff and all the friends he has made when he goes to school.

As a father, I do say that my daughter could not have had a better place than this nursery. We are extremely happy with everything. She is ready for school now. A very big thank you.

Highams Park Day Nursery is a brilliant nursery. The food is amazing, the activities and curriculum are great, but most of all the staff are kind, creative, warm and treat the kids like they are their own. My children love coming here and have grown in confidence and learned so much. A lot of nurseries are "just" childcare, but here I feel like we are raising the children together.

Our daughter has attended the nursery for four years and has absolutely loved every minute of her time there. The staff are fantastic. Friendly, caring and great fun. I would definitely recommend the nursery.

Thank you for looking after our children well and caring about them. I feel that they are well looked after.

This is a lovely nursery. My daughter started when she was only three months old and has flourished ever since. Staff in the baby room are always warm and welcoming; they are interested in my daughter's development and in helping her learn new skills. They organise all sorts of activities for the babies and make sure even the littlest ones get involved. The managers are also very friendly; they go out of their way to be helpful and to accomodate changing schedules and the needs of parents. I couldn't hope for a nicer place for my daughter to be.

We can't recommend enough.

The transition from baby room to the toddler room was seamless and staff continue to care for and actively develop our daughter. Activities are varied and personal feedback is plentiful. Staff are caring and attentive and our daughter is making lots of friends.

Great nursery. All staff are caring. Would recommend. My son enjoys going and has made lots of friends. The food provided is good and the staff attentive.

Staff are very friendly and caring. Food is amazing and my child loves the nursery and has settled very well.

The nursery is good and our son is happy there. The staff are fantastic - caring and attentive. The rooms are always clean and the staff and management have created a safe environment where the kids are flourishing. There is a good range of activities, including gardening and cooking and we like the fact that the children spend a lot of time outside. It would be nice to have more understanding of what the kids do day to day eg with an app and additional array of activities eg languages that are often offered by similarly priced nurseries in London. If there was one thing we could change it would be the amount of sugar and processed food served. On balance, the nursery (combined with how convenient it is for our travel to work) has worked out well for us and we'd recommend the service as long as you're willing to pay the significant cost.
