Overall Experience

I was extremely nervous about sending my son to nursery for the first time. He is 21 months old. The staff are all lovely and friendly. The environment is clean and tidy and my son always comes home well fed, clean and very very happy. I couldn’t rate them higher.

Review from Lizzie (Mother of Child) published on 1 October 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We moved my 22 month old son across from a different nursery but still in the Bright Horizons family. Both my husband and I are really pleased with the nursery. The staff are all lovely and welcoming. The communication from within the nursery has been excellent. The manager and deputy manager are always very visible and easy to get hold of if needed.

A really great local nursery and preschool!
