Amazing staff who care for our kids. Very flexible and very good communication. Really good for additional nursery days and keeping me updated on how my baby is doing throughout with photos, videos, daily updates and development achievements. There's always something special going on and opportunities for parents to stay and play. Lots of fun!
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear that you value our caring team, flexible support and communication. It's wonderful to know that the extra nursery days, photos, videos, and updates help you feel connected to your baby's day. We love creating special experiences...
All the staff are lovely. He can get a little upset at drop off when I leave, but I've been told he settles quickly with his keyworkers and the other staff, which is really reassuring. The keyworkers in both rooms have been great, and management are always welcoming and helpful. They are also also very mindful with allergies & intolerances.
It's so nice to see his confidence growing, hearing him talk about what he has been up to at nursery, & looking at the pictures that have been uploaded,
We are really grateful for the care he receives and We would definitely recommend the nursery to others
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We're so pleased your son has settled well and is happy in our care. It's wonderful to hear how his confidence is growing.
Bright Horizons are absolutely fantastic! Of course top of the list is that my child always enjoys attending but the interactions from the staff, the continued quality of communicating of the experience, development and progress of my child is what makes Boughton Lane Nursery extra special!
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're so pleased to hear how much your little one enjoys coming each day and that you value the team's care and communication. Knowing you feel supported and informed means so much to us. We truly appreciate your kind words.
horizons. From the moment my son started almost a year ago they have been nothing but caring, understanding, patient and supportive. My son had been solely at home with me for 2 years so going to nursery was a massive step for him and was a difficult challenge for him, myself and the staff. However we all persevered and watching him now settled, growing and thriving and so happy when he is there it's purely down to all the staff and their hard work and dedication. Many nurseries would have said it wasn't the right fit but they never let us down or gave up. They check in with me as my little one has appointments for certain things and are always encouraging and wanting to know if there is anything more they can do. Truly couldn't have placed my son in a better nursery and can't thank them enough for
All their hard work. They are great at keeping you updated with all their activities and many photos which is so lovely and always a great handover.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're so happy your daughter enjoys her time with us. Our team works hard to create fun, engaging activities and keep everything spotless, so your kind words mean a lot. We're delighted to be part of her journey!
I cannot fault this nursery at all. They have been accommodating and ensured my son settled well when he joined at 9 months. The staff in the baby room are extremely kind and caring. They provide healthy, nutritional food and plenty of it! I receive constant updates about my son's basic needs being met as well as pictures of the activities he is experiencing. He is now very settled and happy at this nursery and I would recommend it to anyone!
Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased to hear how well your son settled and that you've felt supported from the very beginning. The baby room team will be delighted by your kind words. We're glad you're happy with the care, healthy meals, and regular updates. Knowing he is happy and thriving means so much to us
My daughter has attended this nursery since she was one years old and seeing how she has grown in confidence and developed has been outstanding. I receive regular updates on her progress and what she's learnt that day. The curriculum also has a focus on life skills and environmental impact which is so important in helping them develop their independence and consciousness of their actions. I couldn't recommend the staff more, everyone there is a delight to talk to and they make you welcome from day one. Thank you again!
My 1 year old son has recently started bright horizons. He struggled with settling in at first which really concerned me as a first time mum, I was worried that I may have to explore other options for him. After 2 weeks I can say that he has settled in just fine. I'm over the moon with the progress he has made with settling in and I have generally noticed such a positive change in his behaviour, he's more self sufficient and independent which amazes me. This is down to the wonderful support of all the staff but mainly Louise. I can't thank you enough for your patience and support you have given me and my son. Nothing is ever a problem even when I called multiple times a day to check in. Putting trust in a nursery to look after your child while you go to work can seem like such a hard thing but I'm so glad I chose Bright Horizons they have exceeded my expectations. Because of them I can go to work with less anxiety and know he is happy and content. Thank you again.
Thank you for your kind words. We're delighted your son has settled in and that you've seen such positive changes.

Thank you for your kind words. We're delighted your daughter settled so well and that you value our caring, supportive team. Thank you for your recommendation.
Our nursery have a lovely garden, and they really use it for learning about mini beasts and plants and wide games. The staff are great, attentive and flex their approach and support based on the child's need. I'd warmly recommend it to anyone.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear that both your sons are enjoying their time at Bright Horizons and that your oldest felt supported and connected from the start. Thank you for your recommendation.
My daughter has been attending Brighton horizons for almost 18 months now and we could not be more satisfied with the help and support the nursery has provided to her in that time. The focus on independent learning has made her a very confident little girl, preparing her well for her transition from nursery to pre school. The facilities offered are excellent and the staff are more than happy to with us to be flexible to suit our needs and requirements
Thank you for your kind words. We're so glad to hear your daughter is thriving and becoming more confident. It means a lot to know our team and support have made a positive difference.
My daughter has learnt so much since attending this nursery.
The office staff and managers are extremely supportive and helpful not forgetting their on-site cook who goes to extreme lengths to cook up amazing yummy foods for the children. My daughter loves going to nursery and I would 100% recommend it.

Thank you for your amazing feedback! We're so happy to hear that your child has developed so much over the years. Thank you for your recommendation.
We could never feel that our children were more safe, cared for and loved than we do in this setting. The staff have consistently exceeded our expectations by providing exceptional support for our two SEN children. They have shown an unwavering dedication to ensuring that our children receive the individualised care and attention that they need to thrive. What truly sets this nursery apart is its personalised approach to every child, recognising that there is no "one size fits all" solution. Not only have they gone above and beyond for our children, but they have also extended their support to us as parents, guiding us through this challenging journey with compassion and understanding. We are eternally grateful for the incredible team at this nursery and pre-school setting, and cannot recommend them highly enough - if we could rate 100 stars it wouldn't come close - keep doing what you're doing, it doesn't go unnoticed!
Thank you so much for your heartfelt review! We're thrilled to hear that our team has exceeded your expectations and provided exceptional support for your children. We deeply appreciate your kind words and are grateful for your support. Thank you for recommending us.
His keyworker has been fantastic, including management, from settling my boy into the point he's really excited to come to nursery and progress to preschool. I am seeing him flourish, being nurtured and looked after by all the staff right down to the kitchen staff ensuring my boy is fed. Everything has been amazing. The app with updates is great, they are always at the end of the phone to support if I have a query or concern, I'm kept informed and updated on development and progress which I enjoy seeing. They are keen to work with parents on any future developments and wishes to further improve the experience, such as meal plan availability and recipes to provide home learning activities.
Thank you for nurturing my boy. Keep up the great work.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad to hear that your son is thriving and that our team, from key worker to kitchen staff, has made a positive impact. It's great to know you find the app and communication helpful. Thank you for recommending us and for your kind words!
Fantastic nursery and leadership team. My son has been with the nursery since 10 months and he is off to school in September. He has therefore been through all rooms and had a fantastic start to life. He has so much fun at nursery and has made some great friends. All the care staff are fabulous and we will be sad to leave them.
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear about your son's wonderful journey at our nursery. We will miss you too and wish your son all the best as he transitions to school in September!
The staff are very dedicated and are always trying to think of fun ways to engage the children in new learning and experiences.
I'm very pleased with how seriously they take the safety, welfare and health of the children and I feel that this is embedded across all staff members.
It is a calm and purposeful environment for the children where they are empowered to explore and challenge themselves. It has recently been refurbished and looks beautiful.
Parents are kept up to date very regularly through the app and we are notified of milestones and achievements frequently.
Thank you to all the staff - I would wholeheartedly recommend Bright Horizons Maidstone Boughton Lane.
