Our son attended Teddies Woking for 9 months, and we had an absolutely amazing experience. The staff is incredibly nice, professional, and excellent at providing daily updates on activities, food, and milestones. We've seen such wonderful development in his language and social skills during his time here. We are so thankful to the whole team for making his preschool experience so positive!

Overall Experience

Teddies Woking has been brilliant for our Son, who has attended from baby care, through to little learners and now preschool. The staff really care about the children in their care and want the best for them. They are also very approachable if you have any questions or concerns, or need any support. We always get a handover at the end of each day our son attends. The garden space is brilliant and well used by all age groups. They also have plenty of other activities to do such as water play, sand, drawing, a book corner and lots more! Our son mostly enjoys the food provided, he certainly tries more new foods than he would at home which is great. The app is regularly updated with our son's progress and Teddies are always quick to communicate important messages, and reply to any queries you might have. I would thoroughly recommend Teddies to any prospective parent!

Overall Experience
My daughter has been at teddies bright horizons in Woking for 2yrs and LOVES it! The team are great. The environment is nurturing, there's a great garden with lots of equipment (outdoor toys, mud kitchen, forest school, balance bikes etc) for the kids - all refurbed very recently. The rooms are large, clean and bright. Theres lots of story time, singing, art, crafts, and learning through play. I'd say that my daughter's speech and numbers developed very well at teddies and they were a great support during her potty training.
The bright horizons app is good for insight into your kids days - meals, naps, toilet trips etc -
and the team will give you a more detailed debrief at pickup each day.

Honestly, it's a good wholesome nursery. Great team. Lots of other lovely kids.

Reply from Sarah Walker, Parent Experience coordinator at Bright Horizons Teddies Woking Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for your lovely review! We're so pleased to hear how happy your daughter has been and that you've felt supported along the way. Your kind words mean a lot to our team, and we're glad you've found the app and updates helpful.

Overall Experience

I am incredibly grateful for the amazing care and support my daughter receives at this nursery. The team shows a truly professional and compassionate approach to children with additional needs, and I feel that they understand Anna deeply. Since joining, she has made wonderful progress in her development, confidence and communication, and the positive changes are unbelievable for us as a family. Every member of staff is kind, patient and highly skilled, and I can see how much effort they put into creating a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment. I honestly couldn't imagine a better place for Anna - this nursery has been a blessing for us, and I highly recommend it to any family.

Overall Experience

Our daughter joined Teddie's when she was two having spent prior year with a childminder. I was worried she would take a while to settle, but the welcoming nature of everyone at Teddie's made my worries disappear. Our daughter was cared for in a way that made us feel so safe about leaving her daily. The communication from the staff to us has always been clear and transparent. We have seen our daughter grow in confidence, with manners, respect and kindness and as much as we make a point at home - we know that the team at Teddies have continued to instill also. We are so pleased she had this experience and would absolutely recommend this nursery to any other parent.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Teddies Woking Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We're so pleased your daughter has settled so well and grown in confidence and it's lovely to hear you'd recommend Bright Horizons Teddies Woking. Thank you for your recommendation.

Review from Tamsin J (Mother of Child) published on 2 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both of our children have attended Teddies since they were one, up to starting school, both four days a week. (That's totalled seven years.)
It's been a tremendously supportive and nurturing part of their childhood. All milestones, challenges and transitions through those years have been managed in partnership with the staff and we owe them a lot. Our daughters have loved being there, loved their teachers, and have thrived in the environment - we feel it's the right mix of free flowing and playful, but with structure and learning that's set them up with a confident start at primary school.

We can't recommend Teddies enough and we miss it already!

Review from I C (Mother of Child) published on 15 July 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I gave only 4 stars on facilities because on the drop time we are not allow to get into the nursery to drop the kids to the room so we have to wait until someone come to the door to pick up the lids and sometimes it takes time specially when you are in a morning rush, but the rest is excellent for me.

well done Teddies Woking!!

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you're happy overall and appreciate the honest note on drop-off. We'll review the process to improve efficiency during busy mornings.

Overall Experience

My 3-year-old boy has been attending Teddies Day Nursery full time, for the past months. Teddies has a very supportive and understanding team. My son had returned from some time off with family during Christmas and was struggling to get back to the routine. Teachers have been very understanding and patient. Very professional team, I recommend this day nursery. Thank you Teddies for your continuous support!

Overall Experience

Excellent services provided by the lovely team. All staff are lovely and caring. My daughter laughs on our way as we walk towards the nursery and easy handovers in the mornings. My daughter is a fussy eater but all staff have been supportive and kind to offer alternatives when needed. A variety of activities for children are always available and the nursery invites parents for lots of events to join. She definitely loves the nursery and I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Review from R B (Mother of Child) published on 27 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been attending Teddies Nursery for nearly 2 years.
I've found the staff to be very friendly and professional. Any concerns that I've had, they've been so helpful to resolve. I feel very confident dropping him off, knowing he'll have a great day and be well cared for.
At every pick up they hand over his day and always include small details of what he's said and done in the day that's personal.
My son loves the garden with the mud kitchen and various toys outside but is also equally happy in the reading corner with the books.
They have a great app to track during the day as well as upload photos and reviews. I'm planning on sending my mother and son there when I restart work after maternity.

The only thing is that I wish they did a sibling discount, but that's a wider bright-horizon policy and doesn't relate to the nursery or care.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, Campaigns & Digital Marketing Executive at Bright Horizons Teddies Woking Day Nursery and Preschool

It's heartwarming to hear words like kind, warm, and friendly used to describe our staff. Your choice of our nursery and your review mean a lot to us.

Review from Adriana C (Mother of Child) published on 21 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I am very pleased with the nursery and I'm happy to see my son grow in confidence, be very independent, and learn the social skills necessary for him to form friendships.
The staff is great, very approachable, always happy to answer any questions, and very hands-on. My little one moved here from a different nursery and I could immediately see the difference. He learns to be independent without being forgotten about and he formed a lovely relationship with his teachers.
Food is balanced and appropriate and I'm happy to see my son be receptive to trying new foods. I take this to be entirely thanks to the nursery, as my other son refuses anything new.
The only thing is that although the nursery uses the parent app, there is little uploaded in terms of activities done during the day, or any photos of children playing/learning.

Overall, I'm very happy and recommend this nursery to everyone.

I have always found the staff so caring and friendly whenever I pick up my grandson. He is a happy, chatty, inquisitive and confident little boy, and I am sure that this is down to the care, attention and activities he does at nursery. I would happily recommend the Woking Bright Horizons nursery to anyone looking for a caring and supportive environment for their child to be in.

The nursery have been amazing with both of my children, they have gone above and beyond with their needs. They really take the time to get to know each child individually. They have also been amazing with me, offering me a lot of support to help with personal matters. I can’t thank the nursery enough.

Overall Experience

Bright Horizons Teddies Woking Day Nursery and Preschool has been a fantastic nursery for our two children over the last six years. Our children have built strong relationships with their carers and have felt cherished. They have surprised us with the learning they received and skills developed. There has been strong and constant leadership and a great team. The facilities have been perfect for them with enough room to play. As parents, we’ve found the nursery to be flexible and accommodating. We’ve valued the regular updates and pictures via the app. We loved the graduation ceremony. We are sad to be saying goodbye to the team.

Review from Lauren K (Mother of Child) published on 25 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has been at nursery for 5 months now and she loves it more every day! Everyone at Bright Horizons Teddies were so caring and supportive in getting her settled and they make you feel like they are providing really personalised care. All the staff are friendly and clearly love what they do - you can see their passion feed through to their care. The food on offer is fantastic and so nutritious and she always eats so well there - her eating skills have come on leaps and bounds from being at nursery as well which is amazing to see. So many other things to complement including their detailed handovers, frequent updates via the app, encouraging her to walk early on and providing lots of outdoor play in their lovely garden! Our daughter is flourishing at nursery with everything she is being taught and through all of the experiences provided. Thank you!

Review from A L (Father of Child) published on 19 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both our children are happy at nursery and it is clear they are developing their skills with help from the staff.
The staff clearly care for them and our children talk about them with fondness.
The updates received are really helpful to see how our children are learning and playing day to day but it would be useful to have more individual feedback (especially for our child in preschool) to get a true idea of their behaviour and development in the nursery environment.

It would be great if it was possible for excursions to maximise time outside, especially with the common so close as the outdoor space is limited.

Overall Experience
Bright Horizons Teddies has been absolutely amazing from the very beginning when my daughter joined. She was 2 years old at the time and joined the baby room where all the staff were super caring about her and the settling-in sessions.

From the time my daughter moved from the baby room to the Preschool room, the staff handled it with so much care and love. It’s a big transition and they did wonderful with settling her into her new class. My daughter has shown all the relevant learning that has taken place and has progressed at an impressive level thanks to the amazing team and teachers. My daughter often talks about how wonderful her teacher is and how happy she is when she goes to the nursery. Thank you to the team for making her feel safe, loved and happy during her time at the nursery. She will miss you all! The nursery has well-balanced food, great diet across the menu and is a well-run and organized team. They also have a beautiful garden which the kids love throughout all the seasons.
