The staff have taken time to understand her individual needs, work closely with us and other professionals, and ensure she can participate confidently in nursery life. They have been especially supportive with her feeding challenges and have celebrated every achievement, no matter how small.
Most importantly, V is happy, settled and excited to attend nursery. Seeing her confidence, independence and social skills grow has been wonderful. We are incredibly grateful for the warmth, professionalism and dedication shown by the entire team and would highly recommend Bright Horizons to other families.
Thank you for your heartfelt feedback. We're truly grateful for your kind words and so pleased to hear how supported your daughter has been. It's wonderful to know the team's dedication, care and collaboration have helped her feel happy, confident and included. We are delighted to be part of her journey and really appreciate your recommendation.
Her confidence grows with every day she attends.
Thank you for your kind review. It is wonderful to hear how much your daughter has grown in confidence and developed her social skills during her time at the nursery. We are delighted that she feels happy, safe, and enjoys her meals, and that you find the team's communication clear and helpful. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to continuing to support her development.
This is an outstanding nursery with trustworthy, knowledgeable, kind and dedicated staff. Our child has been there for over a year and has developed so much in their confidence, communication and social skills. They love the outdoor space (the bikes!), food and creative activities. As a working parent, it's vital to know that our child is somewhere where they can be safe and nurtured. We've found that at Sale and will be truly sad when we do have to finally say goodbye!
I really value how detailed the handovers are at drop off and pick up - nothing ever feels rushed, and I always feel fully informed about how her day has gone. They share updates throughout the day, which is such a comfort as a parent, especially when you're leaving your child in someone else's care. The staff genuinely take the time to understand my daughter's needs and my own thoughts as a parent, and that partnership makes a big difference. Already, I can see her thriving here, growing in confidence and happiness every day. I feel so greatful to have found a place where she is not only cared for but truly supported to flourish.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted your daughter has settled so well and that you feel reassured by the care, communication and support from our team at Bright Horizons Sale.
The staff and the manager are all amazing.
The menus are great and offer lots of variety for the kids too
Thank you for your review. We are delighted to receive your positive feedback and we're thrilled to hear your daughter is thriving at our nursery.
Management are accessible, activities are varied and educational, and my child (who loves outdoors) gets plenty of opportunity to play outside.
Communication via the app is easy, with quick responses from room staff and management.
Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We appreciate your kind words, and hearing from our parents reminds us why we do what we do.
My child has been attending Bright Horizons for close to 12 months now, they are thriving having established strong relationships with staff, and care needs acknowledged and met promptly.
My child has known allergies and staff have been thorough and diligent in accommodating required precautions, dietary exclusions and medication. I feel confident in the knowledge that the upmost is being done to protect my child, and protocols are consistently followed- validated by the fact I've had to turn up unannounced or at short notice on several occasions only to see the meal/ allergy protocols in action.
Educationally, I can see my child picking up new words, able to name body parts and shapes, and sing words to songs- things I haven't taught. The regular observations alongside daily app updates demonstrate staff take time to watch, acknowledge and encourage growth.
Overall very happy with the nursery, and would thoroughly recommend.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback! We're delighted to hear you've had such a positive experience with us. Knowing that we've helped create a happy and supportive environment means the world to our team. We truly appreciate your trust and look forward to continuing to provide the best care and experiences for you and your family. Thank you for your recommendation.
Im absolutely horrified at the negligence my daughter and I have experienced today within the care of the nursery. I was informed by phone my child had been bitten on the foot by another child, this was shrugged off by staff and i was told it was 'one of those things' i went to picky child up from nursery to find she also had a bruise on her cheek, when asked how this had happened, none of the girls within my daughters care can explain how this has happened to a 17 month old baby. I had to ask them for an accident form to be filled out for the injury to her face, as I am seeking legal action for an investigation to be done of this nursery. They then lied on the accident form and insinuated the injury had 'potentially' been done by a toy oven door. This was absolutely not the case, and when first asked, they admitted none of them had an idea how the injury had happened. I have this verbal conversation recorded on my phone.
Thank you for your feedback and we're very sorry to hear about your experience. We are aware of your case, but if you have any additional details, please email our Parent Enquiry team at parentenquiry@brighthorizons.com so we can assist you directly.

The wider support for additional developmental learning is great via SENCO trained staff, would like to see more staff trained & advising staff.
The facility is clean & lots of activities for children to engage with, allowing social & solo play.
Happy my child is at Bright Horizons, we feel supported & appreciate guidance & experiences of staff shared with us to help with our child's development.
The manager is attentive to any matters.
All staff are attentive & key workers particularly.
Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful feedback. We're pleased to hear you feel supported and appreciate the high standard of care and detailed handovers. We truly appreciate your kind words and trust in our team!
Fantastic nursery. All the staff clearly care about the children and their safety, development and importantly that they have fun. Would highly recommend. I feel our child has developed well and is confident, capable and chatty. Thanks
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're delighted to hear your child is thriving, confident, and enjoying their time with us.
Great experiences with Bright Horizons Sale, my kid loves the staff and tells me daily about her friends there and all the things she's learned. Everyone is friendly and approachable, there seem to be robust procedures for managing incidents and we get regular feedback about progress. Really benefits from purpose built premises.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so happy to hear your child enjoys their time with us and loves the staff.
My little boy has been attending since he was 7 months old and he has flourished. He loves his time at Bright Horizons, is excited upon arrival and the staff have been extremely supportive throughout the different milestones such as weaning and walking. The staff are fantastic, always willing to help and support and I feel thoroughly up to date from both the updates on the app and the handover at pickup time. Such a great decision to send my child to Bright Horizons - thank you.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear your little boy is flourishing and enjoying his time with us.
We joined this nursery last year after searching for the right place for our daughter. We couldn't be happier with our decision. As a same sex couple we have been welcomed and supported with our daughter, and there has been a real sense of openess to our situation and sensitivity towards inclusion. Our daughter has progressed so much as a result of the amazing work done by the managers and the team. Our daughter loves her time at nursery, is confident, social, a great eater - all as a result of the support given by this nursery. Their practices are sector leading, and this helps our daughter and all other children thrive in a safe and welcoming environment. A huge thank you to everyone.
Thank you for your kind words. We're proud to support your family and thrilled to hear your daughter is thriving, confident, and happy.
This nursery is absolutely amazing. The staff are so professional yet friendly and comforting. Best decision we ever made sending our daughter here. Her development since starting has been fantastic and her confidence is always improving. She’s so happy!
Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We appreciate your kind words.
Extremely good safeguarding measurements in place too; requiring photo and password for collection of a child.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you've had such a positive experience with our staff at Bright Horizons Sale. Ensuring the safety and security of all children is paramount to us and we're glad you appreciate the safeguarding measures we have in place.
I could rave about every facet: the nurturing environment, the stimulating activities, the kind, caring and knowledgeable staff, the variety of foods/catering to preferences, the strength of the curriculum, the attention to detail, the clear communication, the daily updates and the welcoming and inclusive attitude of the staff.
I have friends that often share their varied experiences with other childcare arrangements, so I know that not everyone is lucky enough to have an option like Bright Horizons. I feel so fortunate to have such a comfortable and secure place to send my child every day, where I know that not only is she getting a brilliant experience but that I trust them implicitly. It's such peace of mind.
Thank you for sharing your heartfelt feedback and your five-star review! We're truly honoured that choosing Bright Horizons Sale Day Nursery and Preschool has been one of the best decisions for your family.
Our experience of Bright Horizons Sale has been great. My daughter has been attending since October 2021 and I’ve just registered my unborn child to start next year. I could not imagine using another nursery. The staff are friendly, attentive and are always available to talk to me about my child’s development and learning journey. Each day I look forward to seeing pictures on the app of what exciting activities the children have been doing. I could not recommend this nursery enough!
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're delighted your experience at Bright Horizons Sale has been exceptional. Thank you for your recommendation.
Initially, I was filled with anxiety about leaving my daughter in someone else's care, but the staff at Bright Horizons quickly dispelled my fears. The staff members are not only lovely but also incredibly helpful and supportive, making every day a positive experience for both my daughter and me. It's heartwarming to see how much she has thrived under their care, and I attribute her growth and development to the dedication and nurturing she has received. The facilities at Bright Horizons are top-notch, providing a safe and stimulating environment for the children. I particularly appreciate the daily pictures and updates that allow me to stay connected with her activities and progress throughout the day. Bright Horizons has truly made our experience seamless and unforgettable. A heartfelt thank you to the staff, your dedication and care have made a lasting impact on our family, and we will always cherish the memories of my daughter's time at the nursery.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We're truly touched to hear about the positive impact Bright Horizons has had on you and your daughter. We understand how daunting it can be to leave your child in someone else's care, and we're glad we could ease your worries.
We moved down from Scotland in September 2022 with our then 2-year-old, so it was quite a big change for her, but the team at Bright Horizons were fantastic and helped her settle in quickly. Since then, she's grown so much in confidence, made so many new friends and the learning environment in preschool has been great. I would highly recommend both the environment and the staff at Bright Horizons Sale.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that our team at Bright Horizons Sale was able to support your daughter's transition and help her settle in quickly after such a big move. Thank you for your recommendation.
My son has been with Bright Horizons Sale for the past 7/8 months. He enjoys most of the activities and adores the staff! I cannot thank the team for their continued support in helping my child thrive!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that your son has been enjoying his time at Bright Horizons Sale.
