Excellent staff that take a keen interest, in not only caring for our children but also in their development. They are always doing new activities that keep my children keen and excited to go in every day. Could not hope to be dropping my children off at a better nursery.

Review from Trisha C (Mother of Child) published on 15 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both of my daughters have attended Bright Horizons at Milton and we have been really impressed with the level of care they have received. Most importantly, my youngest daughter (18 months old), loves going there which is a huge relief to me, that she is happy, settled and all her needs are being met to an excellent standard. Activities are well planned, with wonderful resources that are engaging and provide great opportunities for learning. The environment is so calm with all the little ones looking content and happy whenever I pick up/drop off. Communication has always been excellent and my wishes for my daughter are always followed. Staff are energetic, enthusiastic and confident which is just what my little one needs. The meals and snacks provided sound delicious and help to meet a balanced diet, She always eats everything she is offered which is great! Overall we are incredibly happy and would like to say a massive thank you to all the staff for all their hard work.

Overall Experience

Really pleased with the care for our daughter throughout her time at Milton Park, she is thriving at primary school and that is a reflection on the care and learning that she has experienced in her four years at nursery. The staff have always gone above and beyond to support us as a family and we will forever be grateful for everything that the nursery staff have done for us.

Review from Helen S (Mother of Child) published on 1 November 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son absolutely adores going to nursery, in the two rooms he’s so far been in, he has made a fantastic relationship with his key workers. The love and care he gets is outstanding and I can’t ask for anything more! The food it varied and is nutritious, giving him a well balanced diet, and he always seems to enjoy what they have to offer! Recently a new app has gone live and I absolutely love this way of communication, photos are uploaded regularly of what he gets up to and feel with the current situation I don’t need to be standing and chatting about his day because absolutely everything is up loaded to the app! If I have any concerns or changes to his needs this too can be communicated via the app and very quickly replied! I can not fault the management, they personally get to know your child and family and always greet in the mornings and afternoon and on hand if you need them! Thank you Milton Park.

Review from Jules (Father of Child) published on 3 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Very bad experience having my son placed in an isolation room due to a regular cough. Unfortunate circumstances made me arriving after 30min only. My son was placed in this room with no window, fully PPE scary staff, with no toy, no book. A very stressful environment, the member of staff trying her best, but no chance to get my son calmed down given the highly stressful environment. Not to mention the stress following to bring him to the Covid test, him 'nicely' mentally prepared in this isolation room. My son was sleepless for 2 weeks afterwards, despite him being a very good sleeper usually. It took two weeks of intense work at home and with supportive nursery staff to have him sleeping ok again, and not saying: 'I am not ill, I don't have to go to nursery' every morning before leaving.
I think the isolation policy and room in place at Milton Park are dangerous for kids mental health.

Not to mention my feelings around the new food policy with dieticians encouraging junk food. Bad bad!!

Thank you for your comments and we are sorry to read this.

I have spoken to the Nursery Manager who has confirmed the isolation room used for a child with covid symptoms to wait in with a nursery worker until collected by a parent does have a window and plenty of toys. Our Nursery Manager is...

The nursery has been very helpful for my daughter and son. Always there to help with queries and completely trust my child with the staff. The hours are suitable for my work. The staff listen to me and my child's needs. It feels like the children are the centre of the nursery.

Overall Experience

Bright Horizons is absolutely brilliant. The service they provide is outstanding. The individual personal approach they adopt is first class, and the individual feedback about the children daily, weekly activities is brilliant. They communicate and promote the excellent work the children have been doing over the week. The knowledge of the staff and their guidance and experience in supporting the development of my boys has been great. The boys love the staff and they have so much fun and are so excited to go into Bright Horizons as they have a fun-filled packed day.

Review from Kirsty J (Mother of Child) published on 27 January 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Milton Park is amazing! I’m an ex room leader so my expectations are to the highest level for my 2-year-old son, and what can I say Milton park meets them all. There is a great range of creative activities to engage my son to have fun and learn those key milestones in his development. The garden areas are full of natural resources and the woodland area around the Nursery gives my son the opportunity to learn about the world around him. All the staff in my eyes are ‘outstanding’ and the management team go above and beyond to meet the needs of parents, children.

Overall Experience
Wonderful nursery. I would highly recommend to anyone. The staff are all very welcoming and always happy, they have been amazing with my baby who has food allergies. I don’t feel she is missing out on anything. They are always very informative about her day too. She’s always happy to go and hasn’t ever cried when I’ve left her.

The newly refurbished garden is also fabulous, 10/10 from a very happy mummy. Keep it up Bright Horizons!

We have been using Bright Horizons Milton Park for 3.5 years now and have been very happy with all areas of the nursery; from babies to pre-school.
The staff are experienced, enthusiastic and have taken such good care of our girls during their time there. We are very happy with the food, resources, and general level of care that is provided.

We would highly recommend to anyone looking for childcare in the area.

Review from Rachel H (Mother of Child) published on 30 September 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I cannot speak highly enough of this nursery. Both my son (who have just left the preschool to start school) and daughter (a toddler) have always been given an excellent standard of care and attention. The staff are professional, very friendly and genuinely caring of the children in their care. Both our children have formed excellent bonds with their superb key carers in each room, which has been so beneficial for their development. Staff are brilliant at providing feedback about the children’s day.
The facilities are very good, well-planned and constantly being reviewed, the children try all sorts of activities. The newly-refurbished garden is a big hit with my daughter. The children get as much fresh air as possible. The food is great, the menu is varied and interesting.

Even when I was anxious as the children started at nursery for the first time, the staff have always been so reassuring, I always feel that my children are in the safest of hands.

I am extremely likely to recommend this nursery. My daughter loves her time there she is always happy when I collect her and the staff are always so enthusiastic about informing me of her day.

I'm amazed at the great imaginations of the staff in providing such a great range of activities for her all-round development.

Both my grandchildren are very happy at Milton Park, they love their time at nursery and are always excited to tell us what they have been doing.

The management team are fantastic, I always get such a warm and friendly welcome when I collect and there is always someone at the desk to let me in. They are genuinely interested in how myself and my grandchildren are and that means a lot.

Overall Experience

My two daughters attend Milton Park Nursery and both absolutely love their time there. My eldest daughter recently took part in an organised Christmas play which was a huge highlight for her and fantastically organised by the staff. Both of my daughters come home saying how much fun they have and I can see how much they learn whilst they are there. All my interactions with the staff are fantastic and the management team show clear enthusiasm for their job and make me feel very comfortable leaving my children in their teams care.
