Bright Horizons Highams Park Day Nursery and Preschool

You are simply the best.

Food is amazing. Management are very supportive.

Great staff, genuinely caring, staff think about fun activities to help kids learn. My daughter has been here 10 months and I feel that she is safe, cared for, looked after and well fed. I will be sorry when she has to leave. Two members of staff, in particular, have been brilliant with my daughter, they are always friendly and they take the time to give feedback!

Brilliant nursery and preschool. So glad I picked this place to send my son.

Would highly recommend!!

My daughter loves Highams Park Day Nursery. She has a great time daily. Her key person meets her every need. The food is wonderful. Staff are caring and passionate. The manager is supportive and offers great advice to me as a first-time parent. The deputy is kind and welcoming. A great learning and care place. I would recommend this setting to everyone.

Excellent staff and well trained very professional and hard working.

The staff have been so supportive and always willing to assist with any family issues and learning matter we may have. They are like an extended family for us. I have so much confidence in the safety and happiness of my son. The staff not only recognise when my son is unhappy or unwell, they also recognise when mum (me), that I am unwell or unhappy. I have had the staff call me after a bad morning of trying to get to nursery and work. My son was being extremely difficult and I was very upset. They wanted to make sure I was ok too. It really helps to know they care. I don't have family that live nearby. The mornings I am by myself getting my son ready for nursery. As every parent or childcarer knows, some mornings are better than others and everyone needs a little extra support from time to time. The nursery are also great with helping parents work through behavior issues. I am very happy with my sons learning.

I have and will recommend this nursery to everyone.

Throughout our nursery journey, I have had the most amazing support, kindness and knowledge shown/given to me. The team have got my son toilet trained, dummy free, without naps, speaking (through such great, dedicated 121 classes). I'm overwhelmed. The staff at this nursery are amazing!

The whole team have been absolutely amazing, both my children have attended the nursery from the baby room up to leaving for school. You can really feel your child is in capable hands when dropping off and it's lovely to hear what creative things they have done in the day. To add to this, the SEND support is brilliant, my youngest is able to socialise so much more now due to plans put in place for support and the management team are always so friendly with an open office door for any concerns.

Having to return to work for the first time after being with your precious child after maternity leave, is a very daunting experience but I have to say I think this feeling soon left me as I realised my son is in such good care and importantly is loved. I felt this as soon as one of the carers told me about his little quirks very early on in the first week. I realised then that they don't just see the kids as all the same but they really take the time to understand the child and that's because they care so much. Thank you to 3 staff members in particular but thank you to all the staff as together, you make it a great home from home experience. As I said to my mum the other day it's like you are part of our extended family. Keep on with being strict on the door policy by the way. It gives us all comfort to know that security is a priority.

Since my daughter started here in November of 2017, I have been nothing but impressed by the professionalism and standard of care shown by the staff and management alike. At no time have I had any doubts or concerns when leaving my child who loves being there. Her development has been exceptional through the care and attention she receives from the staff in the baby room. I have no hesitations in recommending this facility to others.

It's amazing what you do with the kids, I can't fault the care our kids get, the girls that look after them are fantastic.

The staff are really great and really get to know your child and build a positive relationship. I was really impressed with the clear routines they have in place and the calm and organised manner during mealtimes. I believe this experience helped my child to become more independent in feeding herself. The daily feedback about your child is also excellent and gives you a clear idea of how their day went.

I have nothing but gratitude for Highams Park Nursery, you did such a fantastic job for us, thank you!!

I feel the children are generally well cared for but the pre-school has inadequate play and learning facilities and as such does not stand up to other preschools in the area. That said, staff are striving to make improvements and some have been seen in areas of learning since September 2016.

Staff do all they can do.

Just think prices are crazy and don't believe the difference in money to that of other London nurseries is valid. Don't believe it goes to the running of the nursery or the staff. Many friends of mine at the nursery are now considering nannies to save money. It's an option we will have to address too soon I suspect. Such a shame.

I particularly like that they make the effort to get to know my son and his personality.

Thank you.
