As first time parents we were incredibly anxious about her starting nursery but our experience with Bright Horizons has been fantastic. Charlotte and the team are so friendly and welcoming that it just feels like a second home for her during the week. I was surprised at how quickly our daughter settled in which takes a huge amount of stress off when you are returning to work for the first time. The nursery is really well organised and has everything in place to ensure the children have good food, variety in their activities and plenty of time outdoors playing. Our daughter is always happy on drop off and collections so we are confident that she is enjoying her time there. We are kept well informed throughout the day with the app and regular photos to put our mind at ease. Our daughter required some extra support with her mobility and eating in the early days but the team in her room have been absolutely fantastic and it is so lovely to see that she is now thriving.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery! After moving from another setting and wondering whether nursery is right for my little boy or whether to go down the childminder route, Bright Horizons has completely changed both of our experiences. Despite his attachment issues, he now loves being at nursery and has formed some really lovely relationships with the staff. The communication is excellent, both through the app and in person, the team are all very approachable and it's clear how well the children are cared for. It's great to see pictures and plans of the activities the children get up to and we have been kept up to date with assessments too. We would 100% recommend this nursery to anyone interested in sending their child here!

Excellent nursery with a warm, homely environment and wonderful staff. Our son has been attending since December 2024, and I must admit, he always comes home with a smile. He enjoys his days there filled with learning and playful activities. The staff are lovely, helpful, and understanding. We've faced a few situations where a supportive nursery was especially needed, and they have always been there to listen and assist. Highly recommended!

Our son attends Bright Horizons Cooper Beech three days a week, and the experience has been fantastic. The environment is warm, structured, and focused on helping children grow with confidence. The staff are caring, professional, and truly invested in every child's progress. I've seen great improvements in my son's confidence, communication, and curiosity to learn. The nursery keeps parents well-informed and involved, which I really appreciate. The mix of learning and play is just right, and my son always looks forward to his time there. Overall, Bright Horizons Cooper Beech has been a wonderful part of his weekly routine. Highly recommend!

We absolutely love Bright Horizons. We needed to start our little one earlier than planned as our circumstances changed and it could have been really stressful but the team made sure we were comfortable and the app is great to see what she's up to day to day. We can see huge changes already from the activities she does there and her confidence is soaring. I have no concerns at all dropping her off knowing she sleeps well, eats well and has the best time. She's always smiling when we pick her up and covered in something fun from the daily activities. Couldn't recommend more for any first time parents a little nervous about starting the nursery journey - the team really do make it stress free and are always happy to answer any questions.

We've returned to Bright Horizons for our second child's daycare after such a great experience with our first and it's like being with family again. The setting is just as beautiful and the rooms clean, bright and welcoming. The staff are fab; so positive, helpful and genuinely caring about the children and their development. The care and love for the children is evident in the passion of everyone who works there - from creating fun activities that nurture the children's development, to providing a hugely varied and nutritious menu that I couldn't dream of replicating at home. We highly recommend Bright Horizons!

I have had nothing but excellence from this nursery, my baby is happy and thriving, she is well taken care of by staff that genuinely love and care about her, I've noticed how much she has developed and how much more she can do because she is there everyday. We feel 100% assured that she is in the best place she could be in. I'm so grateful.

Starting our daughter at Copper Beeches has been such a stress free experience. Everything we could have asked for and more has been catered for and the environment in the nursery is bright and fun. You really feel that everyone there cares about doing what's best for the children and taking their jobs seriously. Our daughter has quite a rare allergy but all our worries were put at ease with the precautions that the nursery put in place. She eats and sleeps well and we get full updates throughout the day on how she's getting on. Our daughter has settled in so well and loves being dropped off each day for a new day of learning and fun.

The nursery have been amazing since my son started 2 years ago. Since then, my daughter has also started and I feel so confident and comfortable dropping them off and I know that they love being there and love the staff.

Amazing staff Members. My child loves going to school and I trust them completely with my child with his safety. They have help my son speech and got him school ready. Nursery is clean and children are happy. Everyone really cares

My Daughter joined Bright Horizons this April and she has been doing amazing there. Her confidence with socialising with other children has grown and she enjoys all the activities like music time. She has fun filled days there and the nursery always updates me with how she's doing and what's she has been up to which is great to see. The staff are all lovely at Bright Horizons and create a friendly environment for her. Overall very happy with this nursery.

Brilliant nursery! Very well ran with an amazing supportive manager, deputy and thirds in charges. My daughter is thriving in the Blossoms room, her communication has come on leaps and bounds thanks to the wonderful staff and nothing is ever too much. We get updated throughout the day on the app for mealtimes, nappy changes and nap times! They've also recently started doing activity planning which parents can see weekly! This is a brilliant idea and the regular posts help me to see what she is doing on a daily basis. The transitions from room to room are very well organised so when she moved from the baby rooms to toddlers myself and my wife weren't as nervous as everything is explained and settling sessions are done prior. Overall a very very happy dad! Keep up the great work Copper Beeches!

Absolutely fantastic nursery that understands the different needs and abilities of the children they have, no matter what age. My LO has been there for 6 months and even though for the first 3 she screamed every day when I left, the staff in the room were not phased and when I collected her at the end of the day she had had such a good day. The app to follow what they have been up to is very reassuring and if there are any questions or concerns, these are quickly dealt with.

Our daughter joined Bright Horizons Basingstoke Copper Beeches Day Nursery and Preschool in January and goes to two settings with the company. Copper Beeches is lovely, it has a beautiful outdoor space, the staff were so helpful with everything from finding to choosing days, settling our daughter in. She has settled in so well and already is excited to be dropped off which is a credit to the staff. It's so reassuring to know she enjoys nursery and especially as she attends at 2 different settings with Bright Horizons. I love the updates and pictures we receive on the app daily. It's handy to know that everything is included as well.

Sharing my outstanding experience with Bright Horizon Basingstoke Copper Beeches Day Nursery and Preschool, where my six-month-old child is currently enrolled. From the moment we stepped through their doors, the staff have gone above and beyond in every aspect of care and support. The onboarding process, which can often be daunting for new parents, was nothing short of seamless. The staff welcomed us warmly and provided a comprehensive orientation that put all our concerns at ease. They took the time to understand our specific needs and preferences for our child's care, ensuring we felt confident and supported every step of the way. Communication is another area where the nursery excels. We receive regular updates and insights into our child's day, which provides peace of mind and allows us to feel connected even when we are apart. This level of transparency and engagement is truly appreciated and adds to the overall positive experience.

This has been a really nerve-racking time for me, however, all of the staff have been amazing at putting my mind at ease and welcoming me and my daughter. They communicate well and are very supportive of our situation. I can see my daughter is enjoying her time, and I believe she will thrive in the environment she's placed in, with lovely people and other children around her and fulfilling her needs and feeding her endless curiosity. I am very glad we found this nursery, and I wouldn't want her to go anywhere else.

We have had a great experience with Bright Horizons Basingstoke Copper Beeches Day Nursery and Preschool. All the staff made the onboarding process with paperwork and financing really straightforward. Our little girl started her settling in sessions at the beginning of the year and it wasn't the easiest time for her at first she wasn't too happy with the transition which was difficult for us to see. However, the staff in her room were incredible. They helped us to work up her hours until she was comfortable being there for full days. We quickly saw just how professional and in tune they were with her needs which made us both feel reassured we had chosen a great place. She is enjoying her days there more and more, she loves the food and is interacting with the activities. It's just such a lovely friendly environment with the ladies in reception always happy to help. We're amazed at how quickly she has settled in considering where she was a month ago and we owe it all to the wonderful staff and carers. We'd highly recommend them!

My son started Bright Horizons in January and we as a family have been really happy and impressed with the whole experience. The Bright Horizons team really take care of you and your child every step of the way to ensure a smooth start. My son is having the best time exploring lots of new themes each week and eating lots of yummy food. Not only are the rooms amazing and bright but the garden is so big and perfect for little explorers! The nursery also uses a really great app so you can track your little ones' progress throughout the day. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery to everyone!

Our daughter moved to Bright Horizons Basingstoke Copper Beeches Day Nursery and Preschool a month ago because we suddenly needed an increase in childcare days. The team couldn't have been more accommodating and supportive. The toddler team are lovely. I was dreading the transition but they've made it so easy for our daughter and for us. We get good updates of what she's up to and it's clear she had a great day every time we pick her up.

Bright Horizons Basingstoke Copper Beeches Day Nursery and Preschool is just amazing! I am so impressed with the dedication and care that all the staff show towards my daughter, she attends three days a week and would go more if she could. The activities that she participates in and all the toys and equipment available for her to play with are brilliant and it's lovely that the staff continuously keep you informed with what she's up to by posting pictures on the app, she's always so excited to tell me what she has been doing at pick-up. My daughter has attended this nursery for nearly three years and every day she learns something new, the support that all the staff give her with her development is incredible and all of them are such a credit to the organisation. It's always so reassuring dropping her off, knowing that she's in safe hands and that she is in a safe environment where she feels comfortable but ultimately, a place where she has so much fun! Wouldn't have her anywhere else. They're just brilliant!
