Fantastic nursery and amazing staff!
Jack is always excited to go to nursery and loves being there with all his friends. He is coming on leaps and bounds. My partner and I are delighted with the care that he receives at Bright Horizons.

The staff are professional/capable and always go above and beyond. Jack is very happy there. Access to the nursery is secure and well managed. Jack's development is great. We cannot be more grateful to all the staff.

Overall Experience
the day team in the room are friendly and approachable. Usually, on arrival you get a good quick overview to supplement the data on the app. We enjoy looking at the daily pictures to get a overview of what our child and peers have been up to with the room practitioners.
There is usually a good variety of activities on offer as well as outdoor play and excursions

The management team are always approachable and everyone clearly knows all the children and engage with them around the building.

Reply from Sarah Walker, Web Editor at Bright Horizons Bishopbriggs Early Learning and Childcare

Thank you so much for your feedback. We're delighted to hear you find the room team friendly and approachable and that the daily updates, photos, and conversations help you feel well informed about your child's day.

Review from E E (Mother of Child) published on 6 March 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Honestly, a great nursery; the only downside is that they hardly ever upload observations of my child on the app. He's been there since March 2023 and he's had 10 maybe? I've talked to key workers and management and they all say they will update more and it never happens, or they say they've got several to put on the app and they never do.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Bishopbriggs Early Learning and Childcare

Thank you for your taking the time for your feedback and we're glad you're happy with the nursery overall. We apologise for the lack of updates on the app. We'll address this with our team to ensure more consistent communication moving forward.

Staff are great and really attentive. I like the emphasis on outdoor play, facilities seem in good condition and the more rustic type play area outside where obstacles can be built and then played with is really good.

Review from Lynne H (Mother of Child) published on 24 July 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I absolutely love this nursery so does my son.
When he started his speech wasn't that great and really didn't play with anyone.
He's been there and his speech is amazing, he's full of life and looks forward to going. The staff are fantastic and nothing is ever to much bother.
One of the teaches teaches him so many things and always asks for him, he bring his guitar in and sings with the kids which is my sons fav thing to do.
Another teacher my son always says gives me cuddles and let's me paint
My son is also fascinated with another teacher because she's pregnant and he says she is my best friend
Another teacher is always happy and smiling, if you have any worries she will address them.
I can't mention everyone but wish I could. My boy is now leaving to attend school and I don't want him to leave here.
They have brought him on leaps and bounds.

Best nursery around. Thanks for looking after my son.

Review from I T (Father of Child) published on 22 July 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been at Bright Horizons Bishopbriggs Early Learning and Childcare for a little over a year now and I can't be more complimentary. It's always a daunting choice, as a parent, on whether you're making the right choice but I can gladly say we're so happy with what we've seen. The room teams are excellent, both in the 2's and now the pre-school. They seem to really care and make really good connections with the kids and our son talks really positively about the team after his days which is the best sign. You can see the structure in their learning and get great feedback at the end of the day. The management team have also been fantastic, engaging with parents and taking on suggestions through the parent committee, the recent summer fun day was a roaring success! Really positive overall opinion of this nursery, our younger son is starting at the end of the year and my nephew is already in the baby room, thank you Bright Horizons team.

The freeplay aspect is especially nice. The staff are very attentive, our daughter has settled very quickly.

Coming from another school where she was from 1-year-old, the settling was a significant concern.

Review from Hayley G (Mother of Child) published on 26 April 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has only been attending here since October but I couldn’t be happier with the care she has experienced, she has come on tremendously in the last few months and I’m so proud of her, I attended this nursery when I was a little girl and although different owners, it brings a lot of comfort knowing she’s in the same building I was! All the staff that are in twos or I have met are absolutely brilliant and so kind and caring, I don’t worry about her attending nursery as I have complete faith in everyone who takes care of her, excited to see what the next few years have in store for her! Thank you Bright Horizons Bishopbriggs Early Learning and Childcare and everyone who looks after my daughter, you are all amazing. The app is amazing as well, I am constantly checking to see what she’s been up to, I’m always so jealous of her meals and snacks!

My daughter attends Bright Horizons Nursery and goes there 3 times a week and she totally loves it and all the staff are lovely, they make sure that all the children are a priority. They also made an app and its showing what your child is doing and what they have eaten and how many times they have been changed and they will take pictures. I would like more pictures of my daughter thanks.

Review from Natasha D (Mother of Child) published on 28 April 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has recently started this nursery and I feel all staff, including management, have been amazing with her. The staff are so loving, caring and happy all the time. It initially took two weeks for her to settle in and now she is really enjoying the nursery and is always smiling when I drop her off and collect her. She has been eating all her meals and plays with all her peers. As she is an only child, I always felt she might not interact well with other children; however, she has been doing so well. Every time I make the staff aware of any concerns I have with her such as constipation, tiredness or when she isn’t well, they always take that into account and go above and beyond to help her. The app is brilliant and the staff always update it with meals the kids have, any nappy changes and sleep times. The meals are always different, good and healthy, prepared by the chef. My key worker is great too and always updates the app with my daughter's progress. The nursery is fab.
