Great nursery. Great staff. We were so pleased we could get a spot here a year and a half ago when our daughter was 1 year old. The onboarding process was smooth and our daughter felt very welcomed and safe from the first day. She has grown so much in so many ways since she joined the nursery. She has really good fun, made good friends, learned how to behave socially. Staff is always helpful, honest and transparent and that is something we really appreciate and helped building trust. They are flexible and always willing to adapt to offer the child and the parent a good experience and a positive outcome. Thank you very much Bunybrooks.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear how smoothly your daughter settled in and how much she has grown during her time with us. It's wonderful to know you value the supportive team, open communication, and flexible approach. We truly appreciate your kind words and your trust in Bunnybrookes.
All 3 of my daughters have attended bunny Brooke's nursery over several years. I have always been happy with the nursery. Staff are great. They are all very pleasant and kind to talk to, especially management staff. All rooms from baby to preschool are well equipped and always clean. The staff are very good with distractions when the girls started at 9 months old and were upset to start with. They made it easy for me to pop over in my break times to breast feed. I will be very sad that my last daughter will graduate this year to start reception school. The nursery has been a big part of my life and I will miss coming in to drop a child off that I know will be looked after safely and have lots of fun for the day. The hrs are excellent. It really works well with my job hrs and love how they are open during school holiday weeks. I will always recommend Bunny Brooke's to anyone who needs nursery care.
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words. It has been an absolute pleasure and privilege for the team to care for all three of your daughters over the years. The team will certainly miss seeing you and your family each day. Thank you for trusting and for recommending us. Wishing your youngest all the best as she begins her next adventure in reception.
We are so happy with our experience at Bunnybrookes Nursery. Our child absolutely loves attending and has built a special bond with the staff, especially her key persons, whom she talks about with so much joy at home. It's been amazing to see how much she has grown in confidence and independence since starting.
The team were incredibly supportive and patient. Now, she looks forward to going every time and comes home excited to share everything she's done and learned.
We've noticed such a big improvement in her communication, social skills, and even her ability to follow routines and instructions. It's lovely to hear her talk about her friends, the songs she's learned, and all the fun she has during the day.
We're truly grateful for the caring and nurturing environment Bunnybrookes provides. It gives us great peace of mind knowing she is happy, safe, and learning so much while having fun. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for your heartfelt review! We're delighted to hear how much your child enjoys her time at Bright Horizons Bunnybrookes and the strong bond she's built with her key persons. It's wonderful to know she's growing in confidence, communication and social skills. Thank you for the recommendation.
My daughter began attending nursery at 9 months after I accepted a role at a local hospital. While she did cry a few times during my initial departures, she quickly adapted and now seems to happily ignore my goodbyes. It's clear that she is really enjoying her time there! The staff are wonderful, always greeting the children with positivity, and I have found the other parents to be just as lovely. The overall atmosphere is peaceful and love it!
Thank you for sharing your experience! It's wonderful to hear that your daughter has settled in so well and is enjoying her time with us.
Great nursery, our child loves it and they know them well. Wish they had more capacity. Food is good, lots of activities, always comes home happy. App is good too. Great opening hours and open all year round.
Thank you for your 5-star review and for sharing your positive feedback with us!
My daughter started attending Bright Horizons Bunnybrookes Day Nursery and Preschool full-time since she was 11 months and stayed until she started reception. Staff were very friendly and helpful with a high retention rate comparing to a lot of other nurseries. Activities were fun and engaging, they did a lot of messy play and arts and crafts with various themes. They spent a lot of time in the garden with seasonal activities, such as growing vegetables, using the apples they picked from the garden to make apple pies etc. In the pre-school year, she learnt how to write her name, counting and alphabet. Management team was always very responsive. They always provided updates on the app regularly with pictures which was always nice to know so I could ask her about the activities she did! The fees and fee increase over the years were also very reasonable comparing to other nurseries as well. Only thing that could be improved would be that the facility of the nursery was a bit outdated and the temperature control system wasn't very good.
Thank you for your review! We're glad your daughter enjoyed her time with us and benefited from the engaging activities and garden experiences. We'll take your feedback on the facility and temperature control into account for future improvements. Thank you for your support!
The staff are helpful and patient with my child settling into nursery. The updates from the app give us parents peace of mind. He gets good manners and repeats polite phrases from Bright Horizons Bunnybrookes Day Nursery and Preschool. Every time we pick him up he is not always in a hurry to leave. We are very pleased.
Thank you for your five-star review and for sharing your experience with us.
The staff are amazing. Very helpful and kind. They are giving a very good care of my little girl and she is very satisfied and happy with them. They've got a lot activities for the kids and trying to make sure that all of the kids will be included. Thank you, Bunnybrookes!
A great variety of food on offer. They are very accommodating when we collect the children early to pack them up with a sandwich.
The older children’s room could do with a bit of a facelift as it feels a little tired and well worn. But no reflection at all on the care and love they show each child that walks in there door.
Thank you to all the staff at Bunnybrookes, you make going to work so much easier knowing they are being loved and having fun with you all!
We've been at 3 nurseries, all have been good, but this is by far the best. The staff are very caring and most have all been there for over a year, which means they build good relationships with our 2 children which means they are happy to go in every day. We haven't had any days where kids can't go in due to short staffing issues, which can happen at other places. We are very happy and would gladly recommend.
Hello, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback about our nursery. We are thrilled to hear your children are thriving at our nursery.
My daughter is now coming to the end of her 3rd and final year at Bunnybrookes. She has loved it throughout. We have always found the team to be helpful and supportive, our daughter has always developed excellent relationships with her key person and talks like they are her best friends. The activities put on for the children are entertaining and nurturing, something our daughter always gets a little addicted to.
Hi, we are so pleased to hear that you are happy with our nursery. Thank you again for taking the time to leave us your review.
The nursery has been excellent for all 4 of our boys and we will greatly miss all of the girls. All four boys would all like to pass on their thanks and fondest regards to everyone at Bunnybrookes.
My son loves coming to nursery every day! The staff have been amazing at settling him in and the management have been so helpful sorting everything out for us. He loves the food at Bunnybrookes and the chef is so helpful at catering for all his needs! Can’t recommend enough!
Hello, thank you so much for your positive feedback!
I would highly recommend the nursery!
The only reason why I gave four stars instead of five is because they don't regularly post photos every day of your child. Maybe it's just me but I am feeling envious of my friends who have their kids in a different nursery and they post pictures of the kids activities every day. I just felt that it would be nice to have daily photos posted on the app.
Other than that, it's very convenient for work. And all the staff are friendly and accommodating too.
Both my boys love going to Bunnybrookes, every day. The staff are very friendly and professional. Communication is good between staff and parents. The nursery app updates regularly so we know our boys' development and progress. The location is convenient for anyone who works at the biomedical campus.
The staff are very friendly and make our child feel very welcome in the morning, so she settles in quickly. We get regular feedback about her, which is great and the activities the children do together are fab. I particularly enjoy the photo updates. Our child is always asking to go back to Bunnybrookes (even at weekends!).
We would recommend Bunnybrookes to all parents or carers. The staff are amazing, the facilities are great and the activities and care they give to the children is so lovely. Our son has been going since he was nine months old, he settled really well and the staff went out of their way to reassure us re his development and changes due to covid. We have a lot of confidence in the nursery and trust that the staff care and look after his needs well. The management newsletters and daily app updates and photos are great, and we really love seeing what he’s up to.
We could not be happier with every aspect of Bright Horizons Bunnybrookes Day Nursery and Preschool. The staff are so incredibly kind and caring, they have adapted well to the changing rules regarding Covid-19 and kept us updated at every step. Our son has fantastic relationships with the staff and other children, and he talks about what he enjoys about his day at nursery.
Both my kids have been in Bunnybrookes. So it's almost 8 years of Bunnybrookes experience for me. Friendly, caring staff. My kids love them. I am feeling sad that my association with Bunnybrookes will be over soon as my kid will be moving to school.
