Review from Gemma F (Mother of Child) published on 4 May 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My children have attended Bright Horizon, Chineham since under 1 yrs of age, right up to school age. I highly recommend the nursery. The staff are friendly, attentive to each child's needs and happy to help and offer advice whenever they can. The nursery has managed to retain its staff too which is a good sign.

The Chef is great and both my boys enjoyed the food prepared there. It is clean, tidy and nicely redecorated and welcoming. Overall, I think the nursery has done a great job in preparing my children for school and I am pleased I chose to send them here.

Review from Jennifer N (Mother of Child) published on 23 March 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As an all-rounder, my son is well cared for and one of our concerns have been dealt with and resolved very quickly. I do however feel that considering how much the fees are as well as a recent increase in them that the portion sizes are far too small per child for the amount of money us parents pay. My son often comes home feeling hungry. The new refurbishment is beautiful.

Reply from Katherine O'Brien, Digital Marketing Coordinator at Bright Horizons Chineham Park Day Nursery and Preschool
Thank you for taking the time to submit a review for your nursery. We appreciate all feedback.

I have fed the comments back to the Nursery Manager who will pass on to her team. She would like to address the concerns of portion sizes with you in person to resolve ASAP so please do pop into the nursery and arrange a time that works for you. Kind Regards.

My child has thrived at this setting. The staff are warm and caring. The variety of activities is amazing and my child always enjoys taking part. The menu choice is clear and easy to read.

The food itself is tasty having tried some myself. It is nutritious and my child regularly has seconds.

Overall Experience

Bright Horizons has been absolutely fantastic helping us to be flexible with shift working and childcare. Our son has learnt so much as well as developing into a confident little boy. Staff are amazing, they are always ready to listen and help. The range of activities, different rooms to play in and the variety of food is excellent. I wish I was back at nursery.

Review from G D (Mother of Child) published on 1 February 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Our child enjoys being at the nursery and is obviously happy with the carers. Our little one cannot ask for water yet and we are concerned that water is not handed out frequently enough. The food is good though it could be mashed into smaller pieces for ducklings and bunnies. Not sure if the little ones get dressed appropriately for going out as we are dealing with constant colds/chest infections. The carers are very friendly and approachable.

Review from S G (Mother of Child) published on 19 October 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My child has recently come to the preschool room. I'm impressed with the staff and the activities they do with children. The nursery has recently been refurbished and it has so much space now. I'm happy with the management and how they are all taking steps to improve the daily activities. Staff (mostly) are friendly and connect well with parents. All I suggest and want to see improvements with is the meal planning - toddlers need continuous energy as they play a lot, so maybe a cookie or fruit as a mid-morning and mid-evening snack is very nutritious and another idea would be more physical activities - like stretch and grow, gymnastics etc.

Overall Experience

My son has only just started at Bright Horizons in September. I find the staff in the room where he is being looked after in very friendly and take sure care and attention of my son.

I feel that the staff on entrance to the nursery could meet and greet parents better. Every time I enter, I make a point of saying hello first. Most of the time no conversation happens on first entrance. It goes a long way to say hello and goodbye and acknowledge of parents coming to the nursery.

Thank you for taking the time to submit your review on the nursery. We appreciate your positive comments and I will inform the management team about your observations upon arrival each day. Many Thanks, Katherine.

My twin boys started at the nursery in March and from day one they got exceptional attention. The staff are amazing not with only the children but with parents too.
They love the kids, everyone always looks happy in Woodpeckers Room.
They play, try something new every day and their food menu always makes me hungry.

There are outside playing areas with tandem bikes and an apple tree.

Review from C J S (Mother of Child) published on 17 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have been pleased with the level of care provided for my daughter, who loves attending preschool. She is enthusiastic about going in the mornings and tells me all about her day when I pick her up. The learning environment is excellent and the staff are receptive to what she wishes to learn about. I believe she is being very well prepared for school and will have a great grounding to build upon. Thank you for providing a safe, caring, fun and nurturing environment.

Reply from Marketa Cardon, Bright Horizons Team at Bright Horizons Chineham Park Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for your warm words and positive feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences and compliments about our nursery. I have noticed your low score regarding food/nutrition, I want to mention that we were very proud to receive an approval by the Children’s Food Trust...

Review from Laura M (Mother of Child) published on 17 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Nursery, in general, is ok, our child is happy and I feel staff are looking after my child. The only negative aspect is at pick up time when trying to find out what activities my son has been up to, it is always a bit vague or none at all.
Also, I would like to have the opportunity to get more one-to-one discussion about my child progression but don't seem to have any.

All in all, good place but more could be done to ensure my child is progressing towards school goals.

Reply from Marketa Cardon, Bright Horizons Team at Bright Horizons Chineham Park Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for your comments about our nursery, we really value your feedback. Please, can I encourage you to share your comments with the nursery team, as this will help us to quickly address any issues and to ensure that we are continually providing a naturally inspiring environment in which children can flourish and naturally love learning forever.

Review from Thershini P (Mother of Child) published on 8 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Bright horizons ChinehamPark have the most amazing staff who always go out of their way to ensure your child is comfortable and happy. We have had a few family related issues which resulted in my child being in and out of the nursery and through it all, the staff supported her and helped her feel comfortable.

We as parents are always kept up to date with what's happening in the nursery and the office staff are always available for questions.

My child had her first play on Dec 16 which was well organised and she was so happy and excited

Review from Rebecca S (Mother of Child) published on 8 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Due to a change of job, came a change of hours. With both parents being shift workers, it was difficult finding a nursery that could accommodate a 4-week pattern. The Nursery my son originally attended could not help us and meant a change of childcare. With only a month to organise alternative care, I contacted Chineham Park. Everything was organised quickly and with no problems.
Since the change of Nursery and in a very short amount of time I have watched my son's communication and social skills develop massively. When he comes home I find him saying or doing something new. I can only put this down to the fantastic environment and excellent staff. My son is always excited to be going to nursery and as a working parent, it is such a relief to know they are happy to be there.

Parents are kept well informed of what their child is learning, events and illness updates not only within each room but the nursery as a whole. This is done through regular emails and communication with staff.

Chineham Bright Horizons is a professional, caring and inviting nursery which possess an environment where my child is safe, well nurtured and able to maximise his development. The staff are friendly and should be considered both a credit to Bright Horizons and to themselves. The communication from the nursery is frequent, concise and informative - the nursery goes above and beyond. Chineham represents excellent value for money and it would be a pleasure to recommend them to other parents.

My son started the nursery in mid-Jan and has settled in incredibly well. He has made 3 friends already and he always looks forward to going in. The location is perfect for my workplace and the cost is magnificent especially compared to what I was previously paying. The staff are really friendly as well.
