Review from Grace T (Mother of Child) published on 18 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We moved our son to Westchester House from another nursery and the difference has been remarkable. He has absolutely thrived since joining.
The staff are incredible - so warm, kind, and genuinely caring. They really take the time to give him one-to-one attention, which has made such a positive impact on his development. We've seen his confidence grow so much, and it's been wonderful to watch.
Most importantly, he has the best time there and always comes home happy, which says everything. The whole team are brilliant, and the nursery has such a welcoming, nurturing atmosphere.

We couldn't be happier.

Overall Experience

My son has settled in very well and I constantly see the growth on a daily basis. He is encouraged to be creative and imaginative, which reflects on the activities done at home too. He has improved in expressing himself, and he continues to explore more daily. He is always so happy and excited to go to the Nursery, which is comforting as a parent , as it shows he feels comfortable.

Review from Tessa G (Mother of Child) published on 6 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We started our son at the nursery when he was just 4 and a half months old, part-time, and I was naturally very anxious about him being so young. From the very beginning, the staff were incredible. They kept me regularly updated and reassured, which made such a difference in those early days.

He settled so well in the baby room and was always happy and excited to see the girls there. Moving up into the next room, he had the exact same positive experience. Now, he loves seeing all the staff and his little friends, which is so reassuring as a parent because I know he feels safe and comfortable.

Since increasing his days, he has absolutely flourished. It's so clear how much he enjoys being there, and that makes me feel really happy and confident in our choice. The staff are always warm, caring, and genuinely seem to love every child they look after.

We couldn't ask for a better environment for him.

Reply from Sarah Walker, Parent Experience coordinator at Bright Horizons Farnham Westchester House Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear how well your son has settled since joining us at such a young age, and how reassured you've felt throughout his journey.

Bright Horizons is a very welcoming and friendly nursery where my daughter just loves to come. She has recently moved up a classroom and the staff made the transition easy and comfortable for her. I love the daily updates on the app so I can see what she has been up to and the communication from staff is great. I feel very comfortable with them looking after my daughter, and am happy with how much she loves coming each day.
