Overall Experience

My son is just coming to the end of a two-and-a-half-year stay with Bright Horizons Annandale Early Learning and Childcare and I couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough. Fantastic staff in preschool who have shown real connection with our son and other children. Always seems to be lots of imagination

put into activities and regular updates. Great mix of learning and fun for them. We will really miss the place.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Annandale Early Learning and Childcare

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review! We're thrilled to hear that your son has had such a positive experience with our team over the past two and a half years. It's wonderful that the preschool staff have formed strong connections with him and we're glad you've seen the creativity and balance of learning and fun in the activities. We'll certainly miss having your family with us but we're so grateful for the time we've shared.

Overall Experience

Our child has attended the baby room for just over six months now, and over that time we have seen his confidence blossom as he builds relationships with staff and other babies/toddlers. The staff, including domestic staff and those outside of his room, know his name, always greet him and appear aware

of what he has been doing and what he enjoys. We consistently receive information on how he has been via the app daily as well as in person upon collection.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Annandale Early Learning and Childcare

Thank you for your wonderful feedback. It's fantastic to hear how your child's confidence has grown and that he's building strong relationships with both staff and peers.

Overall Experience

First and best sign - my child is running to nursery 4 times a week. Nursery has a great bunch of professional, loving, caring teachers. When I ask my child what's your favourite teachers name, he calls at least 5 names. I feel teachers working with children according their age and ability. Great management

I feel every time I come in there is a new corner to play or picture wall with children pictures they made themselves. My child knows numbers and letters, some facts about space, cosmos and animals. I think it's great at this age. Honestly I really think it's a great and safe nursery for my and other children. So friendly and welcoming parents as well. I am already sad my son is leaving nursery and moving to school.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Annandale Early Learning and Childcare

Thank you for your wonderful review. It's fantastic to hear how much your child enjoys nursery and the positive relationships he's built with so many teachers. We're delighted you value the creative learning environment and the progress he's made.

Overall Experience

Our son loves to go to nursery at Bright Horizons Annandale Early Learning and Childcare. He has been attending since he was 10 months old in the baby room and is now in Tweenies. The nursery has great management, engaged and involved and the staff is kind and caring. They send daily updates with images

on activities that have been carried out, are interested in parents engagement and have a chef on the premises preparing daily meals. We have been having a great experience with this nursery and are glad we chose it for our son.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Annandale Early Learning and Childcare

Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased to hear your son enjoys his time with us and that you've had such a positive experience. It's great to know you appreciate our caring team, daily updates, and freshly prepared meals.

Couldn't be happier with the team here! Made a very nervous mum (and a velcro baby) very happy and at ease. They took such great care of our little girl and helped her settle in so much faster than I thought she would. So pleased we chose them!

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Annandale Early Learning and Childcare

Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad to hear that we were able to put both you and your little one at ease. It's wonderful to know she settled in so quickly, and we're thrilled you chose us to care for her.

Our 18-month-old talks about all the staff positively and enjoys going to nursery every day he attends. The staff always seem so patient and kind. He likes the food, going outside, singing songs and all the messy play.

My son has been at this nursery for almost 3 years, it's had its ups and downs but with the new management team and staff, it's like night and day.
They've done an excellent job and couldn't be happier with the communication and cleanliness.
My son comes back having learnt something new every day

and is excited about going in.

All-round great nursery, staff are very dedicated to the children and show lots of child-focused practice. Lots of communication and updates from staff and management. Management are always very approachable and friendly. Food is lovely and full of variety. Plenty of opportunities for families to feel

My two children attend Annandale and love it. We have been very impressed by the care they have received. The management and room leads especially are really great, very supportive of the children and their interests and I feel they know the children very well.
We previously attended another local

nursery and are very glad we made the swap, as it's a wonderful nursery.

My little boy currently attends this nursery and he loves it! We previously had him at a different nursery for 18 months, which didn't work for him, but since moving here 18 months ago he has come on leaps and bounds and asks to go every day. All staff are incredible, from the chef, teachers and management,

they all interact with him and he knows them all.

My son moved to this nursery earlier in the year. He settled in amazingly and always comes home talking about his day and all his friends. Staff are all lovely and welcoming. Outdoor space is huge which is one of the main reasons for choosing this nursery.

Overall Experience

My son started in the baby room a few months ago and we've had a very positive experience so far. The staff have been friendly, supportive and attentive, which made the transition to nursery much easier for both my son and me.
The settling-in process was well-organised and the team was always happy

to answer any questions I had. Since starting, my son has settled in well and it's clear he enjoys his time there. I also appreciate the weekly updates with photos, which give me a sense of what he's been up to and how he's developing.
The baby room staff have been caring and approachable and I feel reassured knowing that my son is in good hands. He's happy, engaged and thriving in the nursery environment with so many different activities.
Overall, I'm very pleased with Bright Horizons Elsie Inglis Early Learning and Childcare and would recommend it to other parents looking for a nurturing and welcoming place for their children.

Overall Experience

My child recently started in the baby room and the staff have been wonderful with the settling process. They know my child well and it is consistent staff with her.
The routine is tailored to what she needs and management were understanding of our child and her needs during booking these.
The management

has been attentive and responsive, particularly with our child having some complex allergies and have gone out of their way to ensure they have everything in place with her, including phoning me for more information. The management seem to know every child by name and the babies respond well to them, showing they are also involved.
She has settled in well from what we can see and we are enjoying the process of her becoming more confident in nursery.

Overall Experience

Our son loves coming to nursery and this is down to the excellent staff at the nursery - the care and attention that is given to him. AN excellent variety of activities keeps him stimulated and entertained. Over the course of the year, our son, who is 2 years old, has come on leaps and bounds in terms

of his communication, fine motor skills and life skills due to the time and effort put in by staff to teach him/develop these skills. Excellent and strong management by a team of motivated staff who are cheery and engaging.

We started the nursery recently, and have been thrilled with how well our little one has settled into the nursery.
Staff are friendly and welcoming and there has been a real focus on supporting new staff recently which we see through weekly updates from management.
Management team have often been

seen supporting, particularly in the baby room, to help settle children.
The app is also an amazing feature to support when first transitioning and struggling to be away from my child.

Overall Experience

Both my children have been at Bright Horizons Morton Mains Early Learning and Childcare since they were one. My oldest has now left and is at school and my younger child is in the pre-school room. Both children have always been happy at nursery. It is a safe, caring and nurturing environment. The staff

are excellent and dedicated to providing the best environment for children to grow, learn and play. The facilities are good - especially with the new garden opening. We would definitely recommend Morton Mains to other parents.

Overall Experience

Our son is coming to the end of four years full-time attendance at Morton Mains and we could not be happier that we chose this nursery. Initially, we selected it for location and the impressive outdoor space but what really sets it apart is the care of the staff. We have been so impressed with the care

shown to our son by not just the teaching staff in all rooms but all extended personnel who work at the nursery including George the chef. Staff know the children well, genuinely care about getting to know them, support them and challenge them to develop.
