My son has been at the nursery for nearly 2 1/2 years and is very happy there. He is about to move to his third different room and the staff are friendly and very helpful and thoughtful to make the transition as smooth as possible. He has learnt so much here and the activities are varied and exciting. He particularly likes the baking activities and singing along to the guitar playing.
Wonderful setting, friendly and knowledgeable staff and an excellent level of care. They also are really efficient at all the admin side of things as well, which is rare in a childcare place, in my experience.
My son has been there one month and settled down really quickly and that’s entirely down to the wonderful staff. They are attentive, friendly and look after every child like it’s their own. They’re brilliant and I’m so grateful I found this place.
My son has been going to this nursery for over two years and he absolutes loves it, so much so that he never wants to come home! I would highly recommend.
I am very happy with the care that my young daughter receives here.
My daughter has been attending nursery for almost a year now.
She thoroughly enjoys attending and as parents, we could not be happier with the setting and the care they provide.
The environment is bright and stimulating, the meals prepared are all freshly cooked and the staff are absolutely fantastic.
I would not hesitate to recommend the nursery and the team to anyone.
The nursery staff are caring, always very helpful and we are very satisfied with it!
A fantastic setting with wonderful and caring staff who welcome all the children and help them grow.
Our son has been going to Bright Horizons since July 2015 and his experience has been wonderful. He has learned so much and made so many friends with children, as well as carers. We would like to thank everyone involved for their commitment and love given to our son and all the children at the nursery!
Bright Horizons, Ely Day Nursery has been instrumental in the development of my sons verbal, social and emotional skills. He attends two mornings a week and completely blossomed under their care. The staff is very friendly and never fails to greet us warmly. We are quite happy with the care he receives. Thank you!
Both my daughters have blossomed at nursery. The staff are brilliant, developing close relationships with the children and always coming up with fun activities (normally messier than I would have done at home!). The food is very healthy and they eat well there. I highly recommend this nursery.
Very happy with Bright Horizons Ely. However the playground is in desperate need of a power wash. My daughter is coming home really dirty. Apart from this very happy.
I have spoken to the Nursery Manager and she has informed me they are waiting on an appointment for a power wash for the outdoor area asap.
Any other concerns please do speak to the Nursery Manager and she will be happy to work with you.
Kind Regards.
Staff are friendly, approachable and accommodating.
My child has a food allergy and this is met by the nursery, but sometimes the food choices for him are not very wide-ranging. I understand this as it can be difficult to accommodate.
The Nursery Manager is now aware of your concerns regarding the variety of food for your little one and will work with you both and the Chef to look at this.
Kind Regards.
My son started at Bright Horizons Ely at the beginning of the year (age 8 months). Although we still cry at each drop off it gives me confidence that he’s enjoyed his day at nursery with the progress reports and photos I receive on a regular basis. The staff in the Caterpillar room are so friendly and attentive to the children. They make you feel welcome each morning. My son loves looking out the door and waving to the other staff members of the nursery. It’s important to know that the other staff members have a connection with your child outside of the classroom teachers. My son has developed so much since attending nursery. I appreciate the fresh meals made each day for my son’s nutrition. The only thing I wish could be better is the outdoor time/space for the babies as my son loves to be outside.
So pleased I followed my instinct and chose this nursery. The staff are amazing and hard working for both children and the parents. Nothing's ever any trouble and I know my child is in great care. It’s always a delight to see the staff and my child has come on such a long way there. I would 100% recommend.
Fantastic facility with wonderful understanding staff. Would recommend to anyone looking for a nursey for their little one!
All the staff at the nursery have been great at settling my daughter into the new environment. She looks forward to going to nursery and is happy for us to leave. She has grown so much in confidence in the short time that she has been there and her speech has come on leaps and bounds. She enjoys all the activities that they put on for the children and is starting to make friends.
We can't thank the staff enough for making the transition into nursery as great as it has been and for helping her feel comfortable for us to leave without her crying. They were great in the first few weeks when she was sad that we'd left, they'd give us a phone call to reassure us that she was happy and enjoying herself which really put our minds at ease.
Thank you!
Our son attends one day a week, so it's taken some time for him to settle. The staff are totally fantastic - despite the fact he isn't there every day, everyone is very aware of his needs, his personality, what he likes, and how to make sure he's enjoying himself. They are proactive if they have concerns about any aspect of his development, and communication is really good. Cannot recommend highly enough.
I always feel welcome to call to check on my child if I feel the need to.
An outstanding nursery! My son spent 4 happy years here and my daughter is loving her time here too. The staff cannot be faulted. They are kind, helpful, professional, highly trained and build fabulous relationships with the children and parents. I can't recommend them highly enough.
Been made very welcome as only started recently. We get daily updates and she is trying lots of new activities. Staff are all very friendly and caring.

Hello, I am Chloe the Deputy Manager.
Since joining I have enjoyed learning so much more about childcare and development through the range of support Bright Horizons offers.
I love how busy the setting is as well as how welcoming everyone was both in the setting as well as throughout the company.
The thing I enjoy the most about my job is building a foundation for children to enhance their skills and development their imagination.
