Bright Horizons Guildford Boxgrove Day Nursery and Preschool

I feel so lucky to have my youngest attending this nursery. My eldest also attended for 3 years and stills talks fondly about his time there.

The staff are all lovely. Everyone is genuinely interested in the children and their families, they are great with communication and also really flexible and willing to help as much as they can with anything.

Both our children have gone through this nursery and both have loved it. What we especially like was that the staff have been consistent and in many cases, the same people have worked with both children over a seven-year period. There was a bit of a problem with our youngest being subjected to some unfriendly behaviour by one or two other preschoolers but this was managed adequately. Overall, very happy with our experience and would highly recommend. Not cheap but you get "the feeling" here that you need for your child.

My son has been with this nursery since he was a year old and is now going up to the pre-school room. Each room transition has been so smooth and the staff have been great at communicating this with us and my child has loved every room. The staff retention at the nursery is amazing! Almost all staff have been here for a very long time meaning that there are lots of familiar faces for my son to see each day. His key worker has always been consistent in each room, and he has already had an opportunity to build a relationship with all of the staff in pre-school before he moves to the room, which will hopefully help this transition to be as smooth as possible. The learning opportunities given in this nursery are amazing, my son is able to explore a variety of different activities every day meaning that he never gets bored, and is always telling me all about the fun he has on our way home each day! I always feel comfortable dropping my son here, I feel that he is loved here by all the staff.

Our son has been with the Bright Horizons Guildford Boxgrove Day Nursery and Preschool for about a year now and he loves it! We have seen him continuously learning and developing, as well as making his first little friends. The staff are fantastic and we would not hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone!

My son has recently joined Bright Horizons Guildford Boxgrove Day Nursery and Preschool and is getting on very well. Just in these months he's learned so much and has become so confident with his speech. He's made amazing friendships. He's also become very independent with things such as potty training and wanting to help other children.

The lovely staff in the Tiggywinkles room made my little one feel so comfortable and really supported both of us to settle in following a change of nursery. It's a very friendly and child-centred nursery.

My son just graduated from nursery and we couldn't be happier with the love and care he received at Bright Horizons Guildford Boxgrove Day Nursery and Preschool. Even when things unexpectedly changed such as needing to pick him up a little later the team were very flexible and accommodated us. Big thank you to the Preschool team!

My daughter has been in this preschool for a year now. She’s very happy here. The staff are amazing, caring and professional. I absolutely appreciate the hard work they put in. It will be sad for my little one graduating in two months. We will be missing this place!

We’ll be missing this fun place.

At Christmas, they created prints for Christmas cards and tea towels and they make some very cute things for Mother’s Day, Easter, Chinese New Year and etc. It’s a truly wonderful nursery.

I loved seeing the kitchen staff knowing his name and making him giggle! All these people seem to love their job.

Our daughter settled in well, despite the longer hours we sent her for, which shows she is happy to be there. She is happy going in and when returning home, she is always clean when we pick her up and seems happy/confident around the staff. We have no complaints or issues with the nursery or staff and would recommend it to friends.

Second son to attend Bright Horizons and could not be happier. Staff really care about the development and wellbeing of my children, communicate with us frequently and work well with us on key and specific areas of development e.g. my son is currently receiving support for his speech and the staff in his room are actively supporting the speech therapists plans.

I love this nursery and I will miss it when my child graduates to attend primary school. The staff are truly caring and nurturing and have been an absolute treasure throughout all the changing requirements of the pandemic. Safety measures were quickly and efficiently introduced and we are pleased that there has not been an occasion when the whole nursery or even my child's group has had to stay home because of any Covid exposures. My child continues to be stimulated and engaged in multiple subjects and thoroughly enjoys "pre-school days". The teachers inspire interest in lots of different cultures, languages, subjects and I learn new things from my child through their activities. I absolutely recommend this nursery very, very highly.

My son has been attending the nursery for the last 9 months. He struggled to settle at first as expected but the team at the nursery were amazing. They kept me up to date continuously and did everything possible to make him feel at home. He is now completely settled and adores the team. They are great with him. He always comes home with stories of how much fun he had at school.

I’m really happy with the nursery. The staff are so welcoming and caring against my child. My son loves his teachers, he never cries in the morning and happily goes in. I do get regular feedbacks how he is doing, and I really feel he’s being looked after very well. I am thankful to everyone.

The teachers have looked after her , cared for her and taught her well.

Special thanks to one staff member in particular who knows everything about our daughter and helped her when needed, especially with progression.

My son came to the nursery at 3 months old. It has been a pleasure for him to be here. He has had consistency with the care he has received, the one to one he has received has been exceptional! A special mention one member of staff who was our son's baby lead when he joined at 3 months and who has been a constant source of support and help us all through is learning journey! Thank you to everyone.

My son started the nursery late, for only 9 months prior to school. The transition was really good for him and he has had a happy few months before starting school. The staff have a good balance of nurturing and discipline, which my son definitely needed.
