Bright Horizons Harpenden Central Day Nursery and Preschool is based in a beautiful listed building located in the heart of Harpenden.
The nursery offers high-quality care and education for babies aged 3 months to children up to 5 years old.
With a highly qualified, long-standing team who provide a home from home nursery environment, long opening hours, 7am - 7pm, and being just a two-minute walk from the train station and only a 20-minute train ride into London Kings Cross, the setting is great for commuting parents.
The expansive adventure garden provides children with a safe and enjoyable outdoor space for exploration. It features a climbing frame, a water feature, a mud kitchen area, and a separate, cosy and secure baby garden. Children spend time outdoors every day.
Additionally, the nursery and pre-school rooms have the advantage of direct garden access, allowing for free-flow access for the children. And while your child is busy exploring and having fun, the team can keep you updated via the Family app. Available for all Bright Horizons parents, this will keep you connected with your child's day-to-day experiences as they develop during their time at the setting.
There is an on-site chef who bakes and cooks with the children on a weekly basis to instil an understanding of nutrition and prepares delicious, healthy and nutritious food. The menus change seasonally and cater for all dietary and religious needs. The kitchen holds a 5* EHO rating for food safety and hygiene.

Harpenden Day Nursery is a very friendly nursery, our 2 children (aged 19 months and 3 years) are very happy here. Asquith provides a great learning environment for them and they have lots of excellent resources. The outdoor play area is great fun too. They offer a very varied food menu which the children enjoy. Staff are always smiley! We are very happy with our choice.
We continue to be delighted with the care our daughter receives at nursery. She is thriving, learning lots and loves the time she spends here with the staff and her friends.

I have found the nursery to be great, loads of feedback every day about my daughter and what activities she's been up to. The menu is very varied and healthy sounding! Very friendly atmosphere.

We absolutely love the nursery and received some outstanding care from all the staff. Who are always caring and attentive. I would like to highlight the hard work of a particular carer in ensuring our son settled quickly and integrated after disruption at another nursery in the area. The only downside of the nursery is the cost and mobility to use our council provided free hours on days that would allow my wife to return to work.
My daughter has been at Harpenden Day Nursery for 2 years now since she was 11 months old and she has loved every minute of it. The staff are all amazing with her and her progression is incredible. We are so proud of her and that's a testament to the staff. Thank you so much.

My daughter has been attending Asquith since she turned 2. Throughout her time at the nursery, I have been impressed with the care shown to her by the staff. It's a small, friendly nursery where everyone knows each other by name. She has flourished! The facilities are great - especially the playground. The chef prepares delicious foods - she eats better food at nursery than at home. The only downside is the fees, which keep increasing.

My son has been at the nursery since he was 10 months old. The staff were brilliant at settling him in and they really took an interest in what he liked and enjoyed doing, even at such an early age. This has consistently been the case and I'm confident he's getting the best care while my husband and I work full time. The focus on development is excellent and my son is so happy here, he has formed strong bonds with all his key workers and his social skill are brilliant.
The staff are all so friendly and make the children feel very special.

Harpenden Day Nursery is so much more than childcare. It is a warm, caring and nurturing environment for the children to thrive. Our daughter loves coming in and has such varied days each week.

Our little boy is really happy and very settled at nursery. We are always comfortable dropping him off and it's clear he is happy to be there and he looks forward to seeing his key workers and friends. He has always eaten well and I have always been pleased with the different foods he eats there. He definitely gets good use of the garden and loves being outside. This is great because he is such an active boy and needs regular exercise! The staff are very approachable and the new management have fully made a difference- it all seems very settled. All in all I am extremely happy with Asquith!!
We have used this nursery since 2012 for both our children and they have both been keen and very happy here. All of the staff are excellent with well planned learning activities in every room, as well as opportunities for home learning. We have been very pleased with our choice of this nursery.
