Review from N W (Mother of Child) published on 16 December 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We are so pleased with the progress that our son has made in the 6 weeks since starting nursery. We really value the honesty of the staff in letting us know his progress and explaining how settled he is. They have been extremely supportive in helping us manage his dairy requirements, which have been a bit of a roller-coaster! I love peaking through the window when picking him up to see how much he's enjoying it and how caring the staff are with him. The most important thing to us is that he is shown love and care at nursery, and we couldn't ask for any more from his key worker and all employees in the baby room. A big thank you!

Overall Experience
This nursery was recommended to me by my new neighbour as we were new to the area. My daughter started Bright Horizons (sale) in October this year, and I cannot believe how much she has developed, including her speech.
She is so happy here, and I was a bit apprehensive about moving her to a new nursery, but we had to due to a house move, and it was the best thing we ever did.
The variety of activities they do for the children is fantastic, and my little girl is constantly learning through play. The staff who look after her are absolutely fantastic, and my daughter feels so comfortable with them, and I find all the staff are very approachable.
Also to mention the food she has at nursery is brilliant, very nutritional, plenty of fruit and veg, so a big thank you to the chefs too. I love the information sheet that she comes home with to say what she has done throughout the day and the things she has been learning that day.

I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking!

Overall Experience

The staff are extremely engaged and excellent child care and progressing development is clearly the highest priority. Quality of meals is high. Lots of activities for the children each day. Excellent communication between the nursery and parents. I would recommend it to others. Our child has progressed from baby room to toddlers and will stay here for pre-school.

My little boy has recently started at Sale Day Nursery, he has settled so much. He thoroughly enjoys nursery and is happy being dropped off. I am so thankful for the girls in baby two for reassuring me and making me feel comfortable leaving him.

Overall Experience

My children have been going to Bright Horizons Sale for the last 5 years. It appealed to us because of the purpose-built nature and the spaciousness inside. The key workers have always been attentive and supportive and have always helped the children transition through the nursery. Just the simplest thing, a cuddle, has proved a powerful tool in helping them feel safe and secure. All the way to pre-school. I am so grateful to the nursery for looking after the children so well and we will miss all the staff!

Review from Judith M (Mother of Child) published on 9 August 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot recommend Sale Bright Horizons highly enough. Our son is flourishing in the Toddler 1 class and is learning so much thanks to the supportive staff and the fun, well-structured play environment. Each month, the class leader nominates a story (eg, Going on a Bear Hunt) and many activities relate to this. I love it! The manager is friendly and approachable and ensures the highest standards.

We transferred from another nursery (where our son was very happy) after moving house. We’re really pleased with how quickly our son settled and feel that Sale offers us better value for money.

Fantastic nursery and preschool my daughter has loved being here with the manager and the team, her key worker has been amazing and she will be sad to leave to start school. Really great environment for the kids and she has come home learning new skills and facts regularly! My son will attend from being a baby and am confident in the teams care!

Wonderful nursery. Staff always lets me know if my son is unwell or has a temperature. Very caring and lovely attentive members of staff, nothing is ever any trouble. Staff spend lots of time helping with development and always ask for parents opinions on what could need improving. Would definitely recommend this nursery.

Bright Horizons Sale has exceeded our expectations - our little boy loves going to nursery and comes home having learnt new words and songs every day. At every opportunity, they play outside, there's a wide variety of activities and the staff inspire confidence that our child is in the best hands possible. Thank you!

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Bright Horizons for the last 10 months and has loved every minute. She started at 13 months old in the baby room where everyone was absolutely amazing at settling her in, and she loved her key person. She is now in the toddler room and enjoys every single day. All the staff are fantastic, warm and friendly. I once had a call to say that she had been sick at nursery and went I arrived to pick her up, a staff member was sitting in a corner cuddling her while she slept on their knee - they all care so much about the children. My daughter runs into nursery every morning excited to be there, and I couldn't be happier with it.

Review from Laura C (Mother of Child) published on 7 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The staff at this nursery are WONDERFUL. My daughter has been loving her time there and they all genuinely love and care for the children. If she's ever a bit unsettled I always see on her sheet that she's been having lots of cuddles. This means a lot to me as I know that if she's upset the girls will spend some time with her giving her hugs and making her feel secure, it's hard to leave her and go to work but it's so much easier knowing that she's so well cared for. I've also been impressed with the number of pictures the staff send. We'll often get a surprise in her bag of a few pictures from the last couple of weeks which is lovely to see her happy and smiling. She also comes home most weeks with pictures she has made and biscuits etc, which shows the variety of things they do with the children to keep them engaged (even at 11 months old!). She is also eating a huge variety of different types of food which I'm really pleased with - I couldn't recommend this nursery enough!

Overall Experience

I found parting from my daughter after nearly a year at home together really difficult and I’m not sure I’d have been able to do that if I hadn’t have appreciated she was in such capable hands. My daughter adores her key worker and their bond has made the transition so much easier. My daughter loves going to nursery and no wonder with all the fun things they get up to in a day and yummy food. Such a friendly and professional place. Thank you.

I was really nervous to put my 10-month-old little boy in a nursery. I have to say the full team at Bright Horizons Sale have been amazing!! Spending time with both myself and my son to ensure we had the best start. My son is not great with food and already we have seen a huge improvement. The team are friendly, professional and extremely supportive so happy we came here.

Review from Rachel B (Mother of Child) published on 3 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Since starting at Bright Horizons in Sale in July of this year, I have seen a massive change in my little boy who is just over 12 months old. He was a little clingy and what most would say a mummy's boy, but he and I completely clicked with the girls at the nursery. Within a week, he was holding out his arms for the girls to take him off me and I would even say he is better behaved for them, than me and his father at home. Some may say that these big nurseries have only an interest in money, but I totally disagree with Bright Horizons. They are 100% personal and know who my little boy is whether they work in his room or not. Yes, we may have been able to find childcare cheaper but I'm happy to pay knowing he is looked after, loved and cared for like one of their own. I provide nothing and that was the biggest appeal to me. I take a bag with spare clothes in and that is literally it. For a teacher/mum working full time, this was ideal for me. Thank you Bright Horizons, Sale.

Review from Sian R (Mother of Child) published on 4 April 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I can’t recommend this nursery and it’s staff highly enough. We recently had another baby and everyone at Sale Day Nursery has been so supportive of my two-year-old that he has sailed through this tricky time. I know in his group/class they have been playing with dolls, washing and nurturing them and there are always cuddles on offer should he be having one of those days.
When the baby arrived, the whole class, as well as the previous class he was in up until a January, made cards galore to celebrate not only the birth but also my son becoming a big brother. We were extremely touched.
My son often comes home with works of art or even yummy treats they have all made in class and he is almost always grinning from ear to ear when we go to collect him at the end of the day.

You don’t feel like a number on the roll sheet at this nursery, instead, the service is very personal and all the staff are very friendly.

Review from Cassie F (Mother of Child) published on 29 March 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son is in Sale Bright Horizon's nursery, and we are delighted with his progress especially after his parent's evening last night. He is in Toddler 1, and since being in the room has come on leaps and bounds. His vocabulary amazes us every day and we are now moving in to potty training, and his key worker and the team are supporting us. He is so excited to go to nursery and talks about his friends on the way there, in between singing the 'Wheels on the bus'!!.

Thank you for your continued support a for making nursery such a positive experience for us all.
