Rose Cottage is a brilliant nursery and we have been very pleased with how they have looked after our daughter and encouraged her development.

Rose Cottage is a truly superb nursery. The staff have made our daughter so comfortable and welcome and she can't wait to go back each week. The outdoor environment they have created with the animals and the woodland is such a unique benefit that not many other nurseries offer and our daughter has thrived with this. Would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a nurturing and caring environment with the added benefit of an outdoor area that encourages relationships with animals and wildlife.
Thank you for your fantastic review. We're delighted to hear how much your daughter enjoys her time at Rose Cottage and that she's thriving in their unique outdoor environment. The team truly appreciates your recommendation and kind words about our nurturing and caring approach.
Our daughter has been attending her for a year now and she absolutely loves it! The outdoor facilities are second to none in the area and the team are so wonderful with her. You can really feel their passion and genuine enjoyment of what they do. I would highly recommend it!
Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased to hear how much your daughter loves her time at our nursery. Your recommendation means a lot, thank you.
Lovely nursery in a fantastic setting with a really wonderful staff. My daughter loves going there and especially likes the outdoor space and the animals! This is the main reason we chose this nursery plus the relaxed environment/approach of the staff. The previous nursery we used was much more rigid and rule-driven - Rose Cottage has a more friendly and learning-through-nature feel which suits us.
Thank you for your kind review. We're so glad your daughter enjoys the outdoor space and animals at Rose Cottage. It's great to hear our nature-focused, relaxed approach suits your family. We truly appreciate your feedback!
He loves playing with the animals outside.
Highly recommend Rose Cottage.
Thank you for your fantastic review. We're so glad to hear your little boy is enjoying his time at Rose Cottage, especially the outdoor play with the animals. We appreciate your kind words about our amazing staff and are thrilled to know he's so happy here. Thank you for your recommendation!
I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Bright Horizons Rose Cottage Haywards Heath Day Nursery and Preschool. The staff have been incredible for the past three years my son has attended and he has loved every minute. The grounds and outdoor facilities were naturally a big draw for us when we selected Rose Cottage and our son is a huge 'outdoors' kid as a result. On those rainy days though, he has still enjoyed his time. The baby room is quite small but given the needs and numbers probably appropriate for the age group.
We are delighted to receive your positive feedback and we're thrilled to hear your son is thriving at our nursery.
Before sending her here I thought nursery was crazily expensive, now I realise it's worth every single penny!
Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We appreciate your kind words.
My daughter has been enrolled at Bright Horizons Rose Cottage Haywards Heath Day Nursery and Prechool since 2020 and our experience has been exceptional! The staff are incredibly friendly and caring and we've seen a significant improvement in my daughter's confidence levels. The variety of menus ensures she enjoys nutritious meals and the outdoor space is fantastic. Overall, we are delighted and content with our choice.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that Bright Horizons Rose Cottage Haywards Heath Day Nursery and Preschool has provided your daughter with an exceptional experience.
We feel incredibly lucky that our daughter attends Rose Cottage. She runs out the door on nursery mornings, excited to see her friends and the wonderful staff. The nursery itself has a lovely setting with a beautiful outdoor area and animals for the children to interact with. The nursery team are friendly, supportive and communicative. You can see that they work so hard and take joy in looking after each of the children. Now that our daughter is in her final few months before school, she has begun learning phonics, writing and more advanced counting. She is so excited to share what she has learnt showing what a fantastic job the staff do in mixing learning with their day-to-day play. Thanks, Rose Cottage!
Thank you for your five-star feedback and for sharing your experience with us.
Rose Cottage has been a consistently great nursery over the last three years. Thank you for all you’ve done to help my little girl grow and be ready for her next chapter in life, school. The staff are amazing, and we will miss you all dearly.
daughter is coming to the end of her time there as she is soon off to school. Both girls have enjoyed their time at nursery and I highly recommend the setting.
The large outside space in the woods with the big wooden fort is an excellent facility, along with the animals, meaning that my daughter gets to spend as much time outside as possible.
My daughter's development is well supported and she has made some very close friends. We have even made friends with other parents through her friendships in the nursery.
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a 5-star rating – it’s much appreciated!
My daughter loves it at Bright Horizons Rose Cottage. She always comes back full of excitement about the things she's been up to, the animals are a particular love. Communication from staff is great. We're really happy we picked here!
Thank you for your review. We're grateful and appreciate you taking the time to share your rating with us.
Rose Cottage is a fantastic nursery. The staff are fantastic, always understanding, adapt to personal situations related to your child and very caring. The facilities are excellent, especially the outdoor woodland space. My son is very happy there and I would recommend it to friends.
We are delighted with all that Rose Cottage has done for our son and can't wait until his younger brother can also join. The staff are all so caring and attentive, yet encourage the children to develop their own individual characters and have fun with it. They do a lot of outdoor activities and animal petting, which the kids love. We have noticed our son come on leaps and bounds since starting at Rose Cottage and absolutely loves it. He is always so excited to go to nursery and is constantly talking about both the staff and other kids there, when he is at home. Couldn't recommend highly enough.
My daughter has attended Rose Cottage since March 2022 and we have been totally delighted with every single aspect. The staff are all absolutely wonderful, they show incredible kindness and compassion to the children. The outdoor space, woods and animals are such a massive bonus and really make the nursery stand out against others in the area.
My son started in September 2022. We were invited to settling sessions and discussions with his key worker about him! From day one we had confidence in the team that they would deliver care to our baby. Our son has a food allergy and the team have always strived to ensure that they do the best for him, that they can do. He has settled well into the nursery and he adores all the staff. He's adapted to the environment and daily routine and thrives! The communication we receive from the nursery is outstanding and we wouldn't want to send him to any other day care.
