We are delighted with how our son has settled into the nursery. The staff are always welcoming, kind, friendly and smiling and have really got to know our son well in a short period of time. He's very settled and enjoying lots of fun play and educational activities, healthy, nutritious meals and calm, caring interactions. The staff have created a homely environment. Communication on the app and in person is excellent. All staff say hello and goodbye and use our son's name, including leaders and other staff not based in our son's room. I've enjoyed picking him up and talking with his key worker about his day and areas of development he has shown or the team would like to focus. It's clear there is a nurturing culture, which is well led, safe, caring, and staff are happy and proud to work in the setting. I really like the themes for activities and sharing of staff cultures and celebrations with the children. It's a very diverse and inclusive setting. Thank you.

Wonderful! Best team.
Can't praise the nursery highly enough staff really seem to care. App is great. 10/10 full stars.
Very happy with the care Bright Horizons gave to my daughter. She has allergies/ intolerances and they were very on it with ensuring she has served the correct food considering it was back up care.
Overall Bright Horizons Didsbury is an excellent nursery. The staff go above and beyond for the children in their care. The activities they provide always look at the children's interests and next steps. The food is healthy and look at fruit and veg. Management are very welcoming and greet at the door. My children has learnt a lot whilst at the nursery.
My son has been attending Bright Horizons Didsbury Day Nursery for 6 months. The staff have been fabulous with him. They went out of their way to settle him in, all the staff (even those not in his room) know his name and have a smile for him. The nursery is great at updating me and the activities he does are fun and educational. He loves it! Very happy and made a nervous first time mum much calmer!
Although we are new to Bright Horizons, we have felt that our child has settled in really well and his keyworker has played a huge role in making him feel comfortable, which we are so grateful for!
Thank you for your feedback! We're so pleased your child has settled well and that their key worker's support made a difference.
The staff and facilities are perfect!
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We're so happy your daughter enjoys nursery and is developing beautifully.
Today, I dropped off my niece in her room for the first time, and I felt really welcomed. The staff are so nice and greeted me. They helped me around as I didn't know where her peg was. I could tell they really care for the children, and they know how to calm each child with the things the child likes. I honestly felt so comfortable leaving her. I know she is well cared for.
Thank you for sharing this lovely feedback! We're so pleased you felt welcomed and comfortable and that your niece is settling in so well.
He has always been very settled here and the dedicated staff have massively been a part of that.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We're so happy your son feels settled and enjoys coming in each day.
