Review from K M (Mother of Child) published on 24 October 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The staff at Farnborough are amazing and so caring. I know that if I ask them for any information on my son, they can provide it. Equally, if I need them to do anything to aid my son's development, I know they will get it done. My son absolutely loves all the ladies within the setting and wants to say goodbye to each and every one. I love the app, as it allows me to see exactly what he has done and eaten whilst at nursery. You also get amazing observations each month to show what they have been doing. The management within the setting is amazing and very welcoming.

Review from H H (Mother of Child) published on 15 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
A difficult experience here. I understand the difficulties because of COVID but I had a number of issues and, as a result, I decided to withdraw my son (16 months when we left - attended for four months).
1. I never got to meet my son's key worker. I hadn’t even heard of her until we left and her picture was published on his learning journey.
2. Communication was poor. Some days we received very little or no information via the app.
3. Staff assured me that certain things would be done to help my son settle. Another member of staff then told me that it was ‘impossible’ to make the changes previously discussed.
4. I had zero communication about his learning journey until we left. When we left it was clear that it had been quickly written. It stated that my son was ‘emerging’ and not ‘established’ in any of his milestones. None of this was communicated. His new nursery has
disagreed with all.

5. The place is a bit of a dump!

Sadly, I would not recommend!

Nothing is ever too much for the staff. If you ask for something to be implemented it gets done. My daughter has made a lot of friend and it’s lovely to see. Everyone is so lovely.

Review from Rebecca S (Mother of Child) published on 23 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our 3-year-old has been attending Farnborough Bright Horizons since he turned 1. He adores 'school' days and has made friends that he talks about at home with me and his Dad, alongside all the new things he has learned. The staff have been amazing throughout the pandemic, enhancing their already effective communication and providing support to the families that attend. We feel secure in the knowledge that when our son is at nursery that he is being cared for, encouraged, educated, disciplined and fed in line with our own methods and values. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Farnborough Bright Horizons.

Review from Fran (Mother of Child) published on 19 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As a mother, we simply want our children to be happy and be safe at nursery. I am so thankful to Bright Horizons in Farnborough for their support over the years. My daughter frequently wants to go back into the nursery at a pickup which shows how much fun she has there. I also love the feedback letters received. The staff are always responsive and caring. We used to go to another Bright Horizons nursery and am so glad we changed to Bright Horizons Farnborough as they even have a soft play inside. Thank you, team!

My son has attended this preschool since January 2018. We cannot fault the care my son has received and the extra support he needed was given without hesitation.
My son has always enjoyed coming to nursery and has come on leaps and bounds thanks to them.

Thank you so much and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Review from H B (Mother of Child) published on 30 September 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Our experience with Bright Horizons Farnborough started in June in 2016 when my eldest daughter was 11 months old. The staff have been extremely caring and supportive of both my girls and us, as parents.
I'm impressed with the activities throughout all the rooms but especially in preschool and how well they've worked to prepare my daughter for school.

I'm sad my daughter won't complete her full journey here as my other daughter has done but unfortunately, logistics won't allow for it. Thank you.

Overall Experience

We have used the nursery for the last 8 years for our 2 children and in that time, there has never been a moment when I thought that this was not the right setting for them. The kindness and encouragement that they have been shown in each room has been fantastic and the preschool senior room has prepared them very well for "big school". They have loved the space in the garden and the soft play and dance studio areas and extra activities like cooking.

Overall Experience

Lovely nursery, my little girl has been there for nearly one year and loves it. She started in the baby room aged 8 months and has come on leaps and bounds. The staff are friendly and knowledgable, having a great relationship with the children they look after. The nursery always acknowledges special days and makes them fun - the last one being the lovely Mothers Day afternoon tea. Thank you all at Footsteps.

Chloe Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2009
Chloe

I have always had a passion for child development and securing the foundations for children to succeed to the best of their abilities. Following completion of my childcare qualifications, I then went on to complete my level 5 leadership and management.

In 2009 I started my career as an apprentice and progressed along the way resulting in me being able to support and guide staff in the direction of success and fulfilling their goals in their careers.

I’ve worked for a nursery group in Brighton and Hove for 13 years which was then brought by Bright Horizons in December 2021.

I lived in Brighton my whole life before moving to Farnborough in 2021.

I am a proud mummy of 2 little girls and I absolutely love it.

Holly Job Title: Deputy Nursery Manager
Holly

Hi! I'm Holly, the deputy manager at Farnborough Bright Horizons.

I started my career as a bank staff at our Church Crookham branch back in 2014 and absolutely loved it. I moved away from the area to Devon for a couple of years before I came back and re-entered my career at Farnborough. I love making a difference in the lives of our families and strive to make everyone feel welcome and at home within my setting.

I have my little boy Harvey, who also attends the nursery and he loves it! Especially the soft play area and indoor slide. We look forward to welcoming you to the nursery.
