My child is very happy at nursery, they are learning well here at this nursery. I am happy they come to this nursery.
I really cannot praise this nursery enough for the amount of care they have given my daughter. Thank you.
It seems a good place to stay for children, it seems a first place where they start learning. They help and a wide vision for the place.
My 3-year-old son has been going to this nursery for a year and he absolutely loves it. The nursery has very friendly staff. A lot of different toys to explore and they do a lot of other activities (taking the kids outside, to a museum, airport). They have Forest School which is very enjoyable to my child and my other little one 1-year-old daughter also joined the same nursery and she settled there very well. When my kids are at nursery I know they are in good hands. They are always happy there are in good hands. They are always happy there playing a lot, learning new skills. Highly recommended.
Staff are fantastically friendly and always very courteous.
I am very happy and satisfied with the way my daughter has progressed since she started nursery. The staff are very friendly and supportive.
Staff are really helpful and good with behaviour. Good place to drop your child off to learn.
I am happy with my daughter's progress and her speech has greatly improved.

Very good, friendly staff and very good towards my daughter.
Since my son has joined this nursery, he has gained confidence. They also helped him to communicate or interact with other children. Therefore, the nursery has helped him to grow.
Brighter Beginnings is a good nursery in Manchester. My son learnt many things from Broighter Beginnings. I am thankful to all the staff in Brighter Beginnings because they help my son to communicate with others, to potty train him and to take care of my son.
she has improved a lot in many ways and I am proud of her. All the staff in here are very nice and very welcoming. Everything about this place is very good. I have no complaints.
My daughter is doing very well today all thanks to her key worker and for her hard work towards my daughter and everyone else.
Happy with nursery.
My daughter has been at Brighter Beginnings Rusholme for 9 months. She is progressing well and has made lots of friends. She loves her key worker.
I was very anxious about having my son starting at nursery and I researched more than 10 nurseries in Manchester to make sure to find the best place for him. After two months at Brighter Beginnings, I couldn’t be happier. The girls who work there are lovely and very attentive, from the key person to the teacher, I found they work very well together and consistently to satisfy my son's needs. They all pay attention to every little detail that I share with them and they let me know both the progress or the issue that my son has during the day. I do feel I can really trust them. Personally, for me the best thing is that I know my son is settled and happy, he feels safe and therefore ready to develop to the next stage. I go to work knowing that this nursery really does a great job with my little one, thank you for all your hard work.
I love the staff at Brighter Beginnings and the duty of care towards not only my son but all the children that attend is 100%.
The manager is wonderful, she's very understanding and in my own personal opinion is doing a fantastic job running the place.
I would most definitely continue to recommend this nursery to anyone. I love it.
Thanks Brighter Beginnings for looking after my son so perfectly and making me feel comfortable leaving him in your care.
I rate Brighter Beginnings 11/10

I am happy with the nursery as it helped my son come on a lot with his speech, understanding and learning. The staff are so friendly and understanding I have had no problem since my son came to the nursery.
