Review from Lisa B (Mother of Child) published on 14 February 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We have been very pleased with the Phoenix nursery since our daughter started at the baby cottage when she was 10 months old. The level of care is second to none and our daughter settled in quickly and has enjoyed every day. We couldn't have asked for more caring, hardworking and kind carers for our daughter. As a working Mum, it makes me feel relieved and assured that our daughter is being looked after in the best possible place.

Overall Experience

We are really happy with the way my daughter has settled into Phoenix Nursery, with the support of the manager. We have noticed that my daughter is stimulated in her new environment and she is happy to come to nursery in the mornings. Also, the level of communication is most impressive - so thank you for everything!

Review from Torie P (Mother of Child) published on 18 October 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have moved our son as concerns about high staff turnover, care and communication became too much to ignore. The facilities are good but the staff do not seem to know the children and our son was often hungry and dehydrated when he came home. We tried to resolve the issues but felt the level of concern too high to keep him there.

Reply from Katherine O'Brien, Digital Marketing Coordinator at Bright Horizons Phoenix Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for taking the time review the nursery. We pride ourselves on our healthy menus and snacks that are provided throughout the day to the children, if you are happy to could you please provide me with more information to the following email address - UKfeedback@brighthorizons.com. I will then feed this back to the Senior Management team.

I absolutely love the nursery. My child needed no settling to join the toddler pod. She smiles when I leave her and smiled when I return. I would recommend Phoenix to everyone choosing a nursery.

Overall Experience

We have always been very happy with the provisions here. Perhaps the biggest compliment I can pay is that we have noticed no difference since Bright Horizons took over to the already outstanding care that my daughter receives. This is a fantastic nursery.
