I love this nursery and so does my daughter. The staff are so caring and patient and take any concerns seriously. The learning and creative play is brilliant and children thrive in this excellent setting.
We're thrilled to hear that you and your daughter love our nursery! Providing a caring and supportive environment for both children and parents is our top priority and we're delighted that you've experienced that firsthand. Thank you.
Excellent, caring and super-friendly staff! My daughter has been going to this nursery for two months now and we have been provided with a lot of support and comfort to help her settle in. We get regular updates on her day-to-day activities and can see her personal development at home as well. Would highly recommend this daycare!
Thank you so much for your positive feedback! Thank you for recommending us.
The nursery refuses to give us refunds for a period they were closed during lockdown, this figure is over £600 which is an absolute joke. They ignored our emails on this matter for months which was very frustrating and when they finally responded to our follow-up emails they said they would not be refunding us.
The standard of this nursery has declined massively since we started sending our daughters here.
The nursery constantly ask us to bring our child in after 9am even though we pay from 8am due to staff shortages and sometimes we have to wait with our child until the staff arrive for work. This makes us late for work on an daily basis and has been going on for months. There is no offer of refunds or compensation even though we have been missing an hour of nursery almost every day for the last few months now.
There is also a high turnover of staff which isn't great for your child and getting settled.
My son quickly settled into this nursery after he joined from a different setting. The staff listened to any concerns I had about settling him and responded to them promptly. They are always available to answer further questions and always with a smile. I was impressed that they catered for specific dietary requirements and provided halal food for my son. The menu looks very enticing and nutritious. It would be good if they could continue to give detailed feedback of activities kids have engaged in each day and how they have responded to these activities.
The staff team and group of children also reflect local ethnic and cultural groups+
Fun activities planned each day - which are updated on the apps so we can replicate and discuss with our toddlers at home. Keep up the good work and to the manager, you are doing a wonderful job!! Thank you.
This is a great nursery with brilliant staff. Our elder son also went here and loved it. Even though they’ve face challenges during the pandemic, they have done everything to ensure the best environment is being provided for the children. The outdoor area is really good too and it’s a good mix of education and play. The staff are all really caring and I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery.
I was so anxious about leaving my little boy after us not leaving each other at all during Covid but he settled in so well and I feel at ease dropping him off. The staff are so nice and understanding! I wouldn’t want him anywhere else!
As parents, we feel extremely secure and comfortable sending our child to Bright Horizons Trafford. We know that our child is taken care of and loved at the nursery. He has been attending the nursery for a year now and we have seen remarkable progress in his social and linguistic development. He loves all his educators and is always eager to go to nursery.
My daughter has been attending this nursery for 2 years and my son now attends. They are so happy to attend nursery and I can see the amazing relationships they have with their key workers. My daughter always comes home talking about what she has had fun doing and which staff she has played with.
Both of my children attend this nursery and are so happy when going in. The staff are always welcoming and ready to help with any questions or queries we have. I would recommend this nursery to all of my friends and family.
The nursery manager has handled the situation impeccably and walked me and my daughter through the process. All the Team of the baby unit is dedicated and professional. Highly recommend.
Also, a spacious and beautiful outdoor play area for the children to run around.
Thank you
My son has been attending since April 2021, he has grown in confidence and character since starting nursery. He has a great relationship with his key person and other familiar key staff. He is excited to play and eager to learn. The practitioners follow his interests and support his learning through activities he enjoys doing. There is always a range of activities that he loves to do. The app is great, keeps us well informed of his day.
Watching so many happy kids going in and out at pick up/drop off time just emphasises what a great time they’re having there.
It’s great to know I’m leaving my son somewhere so safe and nurturing. And the app means there are regular updates and photos so I can see how much fun he’s having.
Very happy with Bright Horizons Trafford. My son seems to enjoy the nursery and always seems happy there. The staff are very professional as well as kind. The new app is excellent. Food sounds good and the fish tank is fun.
My son started in the baby room a few months ago. I was really nervous about being away from him especially after such an intense year with covid. However, I needn’t have been. The staff have been fantastic, really thoughtful and sensitive to him. He’s settled really well and is so happy at nursery. He gets excited when he sees the nursery building and smiles at the staff when I hand him over. Fortunately, he’s also still happy to see me at the end of that day! We are so pleased to have found such a lovely nursery.
Our boys are so happy at this nursery. The staff go above and beyond for the children and parents, and this has been heightened throughout the pandemic. Bright Horizons is the only nursery I would consider for my children, and the Trafford setting is a wonderful space for them to flourish.
This is our second child to use this nursery and the high standard for care and learning has remained consistent throughout the last year. We especially like the curriculum for staff and children which truly improves and developed out boys, keep up the great work Trafford!
The caring is exceptional and the children's development is carefully tracked. The staff are very highly-qualified and have been assiduous with communications during the social distancing period.
We are so grateful to the wonderful team and their extraordinary hard work. They are very committed and do an exceptional job. We can't recommend them highly enough.
The support has been great with regards to keeping a detailed report of what my son is doing and milestones for what we aiming to do next. There is constant communication so everyone is working towards the same goal. I think as an overall point we are so happy we have found a place that cares which is the most important thing for us. We can't speak highly enough about the staff at Bright Horizons and only wish we would have come across it earlier.
