Floral Place is the most wonderful nursery with the most amazing staff.
Our daughter joined the baby room at first and adapted herself within a week and since then, she loves it so much that every morning she brings her shoes to us and asks to go to nursery. The team there are so lovely and so caring.
They are all extremely professional and their creativity to create activities to keep the kids entertained while learning is truly remarkable. They also take the children to the park and library and enable them to explore different environments.
The management has also allowed us to be very flexible and we truly appreciate their help with everything they provided. Our daughter is also a fussy eater but eats everything there and she loves the healthy and balanced diet the chef is providing. I would recommend the nursery to any parents who are anxious to leave their babies at first. The staff will look after them extremely well and you won’t ever have to feel worry about anything.

I have been a parent at the nursery since May this year. I am utterly grateful to the staff and management team for providing an amazing, caring and nurturing environment/care for my son. My son has settled really well, and it gives me peace knowing that he is being taken care of - the experience the
children receive is incredible. Thank you, team.

I am very happy with the nursery, my kid enjoys going there. The carers are really caring. They do lots of interesting activities. The food is healthy and varied.
Maybe more communication and pictures would be nice.

I could not be happier. My daughter has settled in quickly, fallen in love with the staff, and doesn’t even turn to say goodbye when I drop her off; she’s just delighted to be back with her friends and toys. I’m delighted to able to follow her progress through the day via the well-updated app. Thank
you for all you do team, Floral Place.

I have two children in the nursery, aged 15 months old and 3 years old. We love Floral Place and know that the boys do too. The staff are very engaged and seem to have a really good relationship with the children. Really caring for them and about them and are as excited in their achievements as we are.
They are also proactive in letting us know about any issues and provide lots of hints and tips. We highly recommend.

Super safe and caring environment with absolutely lovely staff. They make you feel like family and treat the kids like their own. We used to live across the street, but when we moved farther away we decided to keep our kids at Bright Horizons, Floral Place, as we loved it so much. Highly recommended!

My wife and I (and therefore my two children) could not be happier. My daughter has been in Bright Horizons since September 2019 and my son since March 2022. We moved places, further away from Bright Horizons and we kept our kids there because of how happy our kids are there and how happy we are, as
parents. Both former and current managers are outstanding professionals (both as managers and carers). I have seen both of them dealing equally brilliantly with a flooding after heavy rain and with changing nappies and absolutely everyone in the staff team, are brilliant. Considering the money we pay on a monthly basis, staff should get a bigger part of the pay. They are the people in whom I trust my most precious assets, my kids. Bright Horizons in Canonbury are an absolute constellation of stars!

We are very happy with Floral Place and can't recommend the nursery enough. Most importantly, our daughter is immensely happy in there. She started at 14 months old and she wasn't happy about it, but all the staff went above and beyond to respond to her settling needs/rhythm. During the first weeks,
she spent lots of time in the office with the managers, as it was the place where she felt safe and the happiest (Not sure how many other nurseries around would have been this accommodating!). Now she is 2 years old and thriving in there. We still wait for the day the staff tell us she hasn't had a great day. Her key carers have been amazing, but you can tell everyone in there knows, cares and loves her. The communication is very good. Besides the app, they always try to give quick updates of the day. It is definitely a fun, safe and nurturing place to send your little one.

The carers and management team at Floral Place have been fantastic with our daughters in terms of (1) Helping her develop (regular progress reviews); (2) Providing extremely useful advice when asked (as first-time parents we had a lot of questions and they always took the time to answer our questions);
(3) Health (our daughter has serious food allergies and we always felt she was safe there as the team took it very seriously). In addition, the team is lovely and you can tell they are very attached to the kids. The premises are clean, and she loves the activities. Food is healthy and diverse. Strongly recommend!

Our daughter has attended Bright Horizons Floral Place for 2 years since she was 13 months. She has thrived in their supportive and caring environment. She loves her key person along with the rest of the staff and runs in the door every morning. The hours of operation are ideal for us (she typically
attends from 7:45 am -5:pm). We feel very lucky that we found such a good nursery and would recommend it to other parents.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.012)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.012) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Floral Place Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.917 for Bright Horizons Floral Place Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (56 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.917

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 4.095 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Floral Place Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.5

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 42 number of registered child places is 8.4. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.4 = 0.595

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: Nursery Manager

For more than two decades, I've had the joy of nurturing young minds in the field of childcare. Creating a serene and secure environment for every child has been my utmost passion throughout this journey. My journey in childcare has been enriched by diverse experiences, from guiding youngsters in summer camps to teaching skiing to children of varying ages. These encounters have honed my ability to understand and cater to the unique needs and interests of each child.

Joining the Bright Horizons family in the summer of 2023 has been an absolute delight. The warmth of welcome I've received from this incredible team has truly been heartening. Being entrusted with the opportunity to lead this nursery has been nothing short of fulfilling.

With qualifications as a Level 3 childcare practitioner, a SenCo coordinator, and serving as the Designated Safeguarding Lead for our nursery, I strive to ensure the holistic development and safety of every child under our care.

Outside of my professional endeavours, I cherish every moment spent with my own children. Whether it's accompanying them to gymnastics or musical classes, these precious moments of bonding enrich my life beyond measure.
