Bright Horizons Crouch End Day Nursery and Preschool

We were so pleased to see our daughter getting involved in a wide range of activities and she would come home and sing and say new words all the time! Lastly, the food served to the children is delicious and there's a nice variety of healthy meals, which our daughter loved. The chef is very good and creative. I would highly recommend it.

I am currently attending Crouch End Day Nursery and Preschool with my second child. We were very happy with the care of our first boy so we decided to return. It's a lovely nursery with great outdoor space. The staff is friendly and caring, they plan and offer a range of activities for the children every day. The management team is supportive and happy to help when needed. We are so pleased with the care that we decided to increase the sessions.

Our two daughters both attended this nursery from a young age and we have been pleased from the very beginning. The staff are professional, kind and have been consistent throughout their time there. We experienced the baby room through to preschool and our daughters have developed and thrived under their care. Communication is regular, the setting is lovely and their children's days are varied. The hours and the availability through term time, is a great help too and a big selling point over some other options in the area. We are sad to be leaving (only due to leaving London) and would recommend this nursery setting to any parents considering their options.

Very impressed with how the staff has welcomed my son who is just 14 months old and how they settled him in. My son comes home singing songs. A very well done to this group of staff. I will definitely recommend Bright Horizons Day Nursery and Pre School, Crouch End.

Lovely nursery, with knowledgeable and caring staff who supported my husband and I through the settling in of our 17-month-old son. The outdoor area is great and our little boy seems very happy. We are glad we chose this nursery.

My daughter has been attending preschool for the last nine months. She has speech and language issues, due to one-sided profound deafness since birth. During this time, the management and the staff have been incredibly helpful and supportive in assisting her learning and accommodating her needs. They have shown love and understanding to my daughter and she loves the nursery. The staff have also facilitated her needs further, by requesting special educational needs and disability teachers, to come on-site to help their understanding of how to provide further support for my daughter.

The staff at Bright Horizons are gentle caring and understanding. I can trust my child will be taken care of. Its been overall a reassuring experience for me and my child. We have made the right choice choosing Bright Horizons and I look forward to seeing the skills my child will learn from his time here.

We have attended our nursery for about 15 months and cannot thank the management and staff for their hard work, dedication to our child and total professionalism at all times. We had a challenging few months with a medical condition but our nursery embraced it with amazing energy and care. We are eternally grateful to them for their active part in our child's return to full health. 10/10. You cannot improve on perfection.

I feel very privileged to send my children to such a well managed and organised childcare provider. It will be a sad day when my youngest child graduates.

Staff are always welcoming and happy. Best team around.

Our son and then our daughter both attended the nursery and preschool from the age of 12 months to shortly before starting school and we would thoroughly recommend it. The room staff are wonderful, particularly in preschool, and our children thrived in their care. The setting is really convenient and the lovely garden and huge sandpit are such a bonus. I would, however, echo another reviewer's comment about the inconsistency in staffing maternity leave, leavers and management, particularly in 2020. The interim/acting managers did a difficult job in a challenging situation but I wonder if they received the support they needed from more senior management. The new managers had only been in post for a few months before we left but things seemed to have been improving on that front.

On the whole, we've had a mainly positive experience with our son at the nursery over the past 18 months. The staff are warm and nurturing but the turnover is quite high which is a shame and we never quite know who is in charge as the office/management staff also changes a lot. The care of the children is great overall, but the communication, particularly surrounding closures due to potentially positive staff Covid cases, has been patchy and often quite delayed. This nursery has been closed more than any other the past few months and the tests came back negative so it has been unnecessary stress and disruption for the children and parents.

Very happy with the nursery. The staff are kind and caring and very supportive.

The nursery has a large outdoor space for the children to play and explore.

A brilliant nursery with an amazing staff team. Activities are well thought of and the learning is evident. Staff are very attentive and have an amazing bond with my son. Management is excellent and very easily contactable. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking!

My son enjoys nursery. This is our main focus that he loves to go, learn and play. The staff are helpful and generally experienced with all areas of child development. We have found inconsistency in staffing maternity leave, leavers and management has created some ups and down in routine and general direction. It's always recovered well but we do see the changes reflected in comms and occasionally behaviour change in our son. Food is good although so heavy with carbs and disappointed to see pudding still served daily.

A friendly, welcoming nursery. Our daughter gets the best education, loves going every single day and has made lots of friends.

Very happy with the nursery! Everyone is fantastic, from the manager who is always so friendly and answers quickly to all my (multiple) queries, to the nursery nurses who take such great care of my little boy. Shout out to two in particular for being so caring!

My child has been in this nursery for almost a year now (started at 13 months) and she is very settled and loves nursery days. Her nursery workers are caring and engage her in the many interesting activities during the day. It has been more challenging with the pandemic as we are minimising contact at drop off and pick up, however, I always get a little verbal report on how my child’s day has been. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone thinking of sending their child here.

We love the facilities, the space and all activities on offer. We can see our child's development attending the nursery, and she always comes home happy. Staff will reach out to communicate if there are irregularities on her behaviour. Overall we are very happy with the care.
