Review from G H (Mother of Child) published on 20 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Having had one child already go though the nursery and now a second there I cannot fault it. The space is bright and welcoming, it is always very clean. The areas are cleverly created by the staff to be engaging and diverse. But for me there is no bigger credit to this nursery than the staff. As with everyone else I am leaving the most precious thing to me in the world in their care and to know that they are in a loving, safe and enriching environment is all I could ever ask for. The staff go above and beyond for the kids and never get the credit they truly deserve. Can't thank the whole team enough.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Fleet Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for such heartfelt feedback. We're delighted both your children have thrived with us, and it means so much to hear your appreciation for the team and the care they provide. Knowing you feel confident and supported is exactly what the team strive for every day.

My daughter is really happy going in to nursery each week and loves all the staff. They do a wide range of activities and the food also seems varied. The nursery seems to be constantly looking to improve and the opening of a new room last year was great.

Both my children have loved going to Bright Horizons nursery and this is down to the incredible team of nursery teachers and supporting staff who care about each individual child's well being and development journey. They always have a variety of enrichment activities and fantastic food for the children. I feel safe in the knowledge my children are being well cared for.

Bright Horizons has been brilliant for our son.

The staff are genuinely kind and tuned in to his personality - he comes home full of stories and pride in what he's made. We love the cozy play areas, gentle routines, and regular photo updates that keep us smiling. It's clear they care deeply and go the extra mile. He's thriving, and so are we.

Review from V L (Mother of Child) published on 14 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our son has been at Bright Horizons for just under a year now, and we couldn't be happier with the care and support he's received. From the very beginning, the team have been kind, gentle, and incredibly nurturing, helping him settle in with such warmth and patience.
They've really encouraged his interests and supported his learning and development in a way that's made him excited to go in each day. He especially loves the creative activities and absolutely adores the cooking sessions and always talks about what he's been making.
What has meant the most to us is the support we've received as a family during a difficult time. The staff went above and beyond to help us and we will always be grateful for that.

The ladies in the preschool room are absolutely brilliant. It's clear they truly care about the children and consistently go the extra mile to make their days happy, fun, and meaningful.

Review from M K (Mother of Child) published on 14 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both of my children go to BH Fleet, and I couldn't be happier with the care they receive. The staff are genuinely kind, nurturing, and emotionally connected to the children -they know and love each child as an individual, which means the world to me.
The nursery is spacious with a lovely garden area, giving the children plenty of room to play and explore both indoors and outdoors.
One feature I really appreciate is the app they use to share daily updates. It's great to see what activities my children have been doing, what they've eaten, and how their day has gone. At pick-up, the staff are always happy to chat about how your child's day went.
What really sets BH Fleet apart is the people. You can tell they choose their staff with great care, and many of them have been there a long time. That stability and experience makes such a difference.

My older son is off to school soon, and he's grown so much thanks to the loving, supportive environment at the nursery.

Review from Rachel B (Mother of Child) published on 14 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with this amazing nursery. Our child joined as a baby (14 months) and has moved through the nursery to now finishing in preschool age 4.5. The staff are so kind and caring, and they build wonderful connections with the children. Our child is always coming home singing new songs and full of stories about the day.
There's an incredible variety of activities, from science experiments to visits from farmers and soldiers and the food offered is just as exciting, encouraging the kids to try new things.
The large garden is a fantastic space with a mud kitchen and play equipment, giving the children plenty of outdoor fun. We've also loved how the nursery gets involved in the community, like joining the Fleet Carnival.

The preschool graduation was truly special! A heartfelt send-off that showed just how much care and effort the staff put into everything. We feel so lucky to have been part of this wonderful setting!

Overall Experience

Our Son has had the most amazing 4 year Journey at Bright Horizons Fleet, starting when he was just 13 months old and due to leave in August to start his new adventure at big school, we cannot thank the nursery enough for being part of his magical journey, they are all so nurturing and truly love all the children that pass through their doors. We recently had the pre-school graduation ceremony which was out of this world, the effort that the whole pre-school team went to to make it such a special occasion was more than I could ever have imagined. The children all felt so special and you could really tell from their genuine huge smiles as they went up to collect their gifts and momentos. Memories have been made here that we will all treasure forever.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Fleet Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for your heartfelt words. It's been a privilege for the team to be part of your son's four-year journey. We're so pleased graduation was such a special celebration, creating memories to treasure.

Overall Experience

Bright Horizons Fleet pre-school has been one of the best nursery experience we have had. I am able to compare against 10 years of Nursery experience with my older children and I have to say currently the ladies in the pre-school are a beautiful group of nurturing and caring people. We just had the graduation ceremony for our youngest who is moving into school this September and the day was a perfect display of their commitment to the children's experience. Thank you for all the activities you have put on for the kids , the friendships you helped foster and the learning through play . We love the updates on the app on a daily basis and the food seemed to be better than what was offered at home !

Overall Experience

I moved my daughter to Bright Horizons for her last year of preschool and was worried it wasn't the right decision before starting school but it was the best thing I could have done for her. She settled in so quickly thank you to the lovely staff, not just in her preschool room but all that work there. She knows them all by name and they all know her too. The ladies in her room have been amazing and really prepared her for school. I don't think she would have been so ready without them and I will be forever grateful to them all. She has amazing food and the play areas are really lovely, inside and out. We've loved it at Bright Horizons

What an amazing Nursery!
Firstly the Nursery is spacious and bright and the atmosphere is happy and cheerful.
The staff are friendly, caring and accommodating. They truly care about the children's well being and all look like they are happy to be at work.
My kids love being at the Nursery. They are happy and engaged and their development has been fantastic.

Overall Experience

I have felt heard and welcomed since my daughter started. The team are all very friendly and reassuring as it can be so daunting dropping your baby off for the first time, particularly when they've not been left before and cry. The team have built a bond with my daughter that's clear to see, which also gives me the reassurance that she's ok. The team are always on hand should you need to check-in. Very happy with Bright Horizons Fleet Day Nursery and Preschool.

Overall Experience
Our son recently started Bright Horizons Fleet Day Nursery and Pre-School in October 2024.
I visited some other nurseries and straight away, from the moment I stepped foot in the foyer here, that this was the best place for him.
The management and staff have been incredibly attentive, warm and welcoming and have really helped settle our son and reassure him and us, as parents, too. They genuinely love and care towards the children, are passionate about their roles and responsibilities and this shows in their excellent staff retention too.
We also used this nursery ten years ago and wouldn't use any other in the area. Not only are the staff amazingly nurturing and understanding, the nursery itself is clean, spacious welcoming and has numerous opportunities for children to grow and develop.

Knowing that we have left our son in fantastic and genuine caring and loving hands makes all the difference.

Review from Jade N (Mother of Child) published on 23 October 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has always loved going to nursery with a few members of staff who never fail to make him feel more than comfortable. There are three, in particular, who have made a nervous mother's worries always fade. One member of staff, in particular, is an absolute gem, my son always asks for her, even on days when he doesn't attend nursery and cannot wait to share exciting news with her.

Also, two members of staff, in particular, who are beyond incredible! They've helped him adjust to moving up to preschool with no issues or fears and are more than happy to allow him to play in that group when he wants to see his friends. Both always smiling, welcoming but also personal and remember who you are. The whole team are incredible but to the individual gems who make it a positive place, you are incredible. All of my future children will 100% attend this nursery and preschool!
