Bright Horizons Maidstone Boughton Lane Day Nursery and Preschool

We would highly recommend this nursery.

The care that my children receive is fantastic. The keyworkers know their characters and deal with situations well. They also listen to my comments to progress at nursery.

My daughter really enjoys going to nursery, she is always well looked after.

The staff work really hard, give great feedback on his day and are helping his development. They go outside when they can, which is really important and change up the activities each week. He loves it and we are really happy with the nursery and all the staff. The manager is fantastic.

Information given to parents is full and demonstrates a good understanding of each child's time/play/interests.

Really happy with the nursery. My child is really happy and is learning lots each time they go. The girls in the baby room are fantastic - really caring and hardworking. I have never had a concern about my child while they were there. They are safe and well looked after. We get lovely homemade gifts during the year, which is a great personal touch.

I have been overwhelmed with how fantastic the staff have bee since my son joined. They are so attentive and thoughtful. He struggles to settle in the morning and they go above and beyond to reassure me. I have noticed real improvements in his developments since joining. I am so pleased with my choice of the nursery!

My son recently started in the preschool of the nursery and although he can be clingy when he is first dropped off, he always comes home telling us about his new friends and the things he has been doing during the day. He absolutely loves his key person and I can't thank her enough for making sure he is settled during the day.

My son always enjoys his time at nursery and enjoys the messy activities that he does.

Since starting at the nursery we have seen our son develop new skills and abilities. He loves his time there and has made many new friends. The staff have been fantastic and always take time to speak to us letting us know what has happened throughout the day. We were so pleased with the nursery that we told our friends who also enrolled their son with great success.

I have been appalled that one grandchild was bitten by another child (known to have bitten other children). My other grandchild has come home with injuries several times over the past few weeks, also both children have come home extremely dirty. It makes me wonder where is the supervision. With regard to the dirtiness, if staff don't pay attention to obvious things like dirty arms, legs and faces, I'm sure they would not be encouraging children to wash their hands after using the toilet. For the amount charged the standards are poor.

The nursery where my child attends has helped and supported her so much in terms of development and she is now thriving. The staff and management team are so supportive, happy and friendly at all times. My little girl absolutely loves coming here and when she doesn't attend she is always asking to! I have noticed a huge change in terms of her speech, ability to share with others and she is flourishing in all areas of development! Extremely happy parent!

My son has adjusted extremely well to the nursery since starting in September 2018. He loves the variety of activities and ample outdoor space to play and explore. We have been impressed by the level of care and attention dedicated to our son. All of the staff have been welcoming and attentive, providing us with lots of details about his daily activities. My sons development has been supported well at every stage especially when it comes to language. We are very happy with the level of care provided by all staff involved in our sons care.

Great care, good/friendly staff. Excellent with my son who has behavioural problems.

A really lovely nursery, our son attended and now our daughter does and we really cannot fault a single thing. The staff are so kind, considerate and really care about the children. Nothing is ever an issue and if extra sessions are needed they are always accommodating.

The nursery has provided all of my three children with great care and dedication. They have excelled in areas where my children needed further assistance and also provided help to us as parents.

Staff are excellent, friendly and supportive. My child's progress here has been excellent.

The nursery offers an excellent variety of day activities and sensory areas, she never wants to leave. They have an excellent outdoor area catering for all ages as well as clean, tidy, indoor rooms. The staff are brilliant too, she loves a certain member of staff and they have a fun bond which is great to see. Initially, I was wary to leave my daughter all day and now she loves it so much. I wish she could go more often! Thanks to all the staff.

They encourage him to grow and give them the attention all the children require.

The staff helped my daughter settle in well. My daughter has been attending for 6 months and loves her key worker. Her face lights up when she sees her. They communicate really well. The outdoor area is excellent. I am really pleased I chose this nurse4y and would have no hesitation in recommending it to other parents.
