Friendly nursery with a home from home feel. The staff are brilliant and genuinely care about the children. Regular updates and photographs are provided via the app and development reviews are really lovely to see. My children absolutely love this nursery and the staff and I have no hesitation in recommending this nursery.

My little girl has been attenting the nursery since September 2024. She settled really well and quick in the baby room and staff have been super reassuring and caring throughout. She goes in happy in the morning now and I am so glad to see that she is happy and cared for. She also has an amazing time there and access to lots of different fun activities. Sometimes at pick up time she is so inmersed and engaged that she doesn't even realised that we are there. We also get daily info about activities, nappies, meals etc which is brilliant. I have definitely noticed how her confidence has grown in the last months and I am so glad to have chosen Bright Horizons Barford Day Nursery and Preschool for her. Strongly recommend.

My daughter loves the nursery, she made a lot of friends. She is always happy to go and doesn't want to leave in the evening. The staff are focused on her development and communication with the parents is amazing. I cannot recommend it more highly.

Our little boy has just started at Bright Horizons Barford Day Nursery and Preschool and we are delighted with how well he has settled. The staff are all friendly and very welcoming. We are always welcomed into the nursery and get to speak to the staff directly who have been with him all day. The app is great! We get all the information we need throughout the day and we enjoy looking at the photos too. Thank you for making the transition from being at home to starting nursery so seamless.

We love the nursery, both my nearly 3-year-old and 1-year-old feel very at home there and have built some wonderful relationships with the staff and my eldest daughter and the children too. We get daily updates about what the girls have been doing/learning and any advice to help us support at home. I was very much supported through potty training with my eldest daughter and communication is fantastic. Enjoy hearing the progress reports too! It's a pleasure sending our children there and we feel like we have given the girls a wonderful start to their education journey.

My daughter started nursery in June and she has settled in so well. After her room leader changed she has been exploring more, interacting and coming home learning so many skills I would not expect from a 13-month-old. Everyone who works there knows her by name and makes me feel like she part of the family. We don't have a bad word to say about the team and they are amazing with her diary intolerances too. She does fun activities every day and I love the daily updates.

I have nothing but good things to say about Barford nursery! From the moment my daughter started at the age of 8 months old, she has been made to feel part of the Barford family. It makes it so much easier for me to drop her off every day knowing she is happy, safe and well looked after. The range of activities on offer to the babies is incredible. I take my hat off to the staff for coming up with such a range of activities for children so young. The communication is great from management and key workers, the app is updated regularly throughout the day, so I always know what my daughter has been getting up to. I cannot rate Barford highly enough.

What a team! I have two kids at Barford, Bright Horizons, one in preschool and another in babies. Most importantly, they both love it. Every day the kids get to participate in a great variety of activities, both creative, self-led and structured teacher-led, things I couldn't imagine doing at home. I really think in comparison to other nurseries, my kids are getting a real head start by attending. The staff are all very professional ( and fun ) and I have full confidence my kids are in good hands when I drop them off. My son has allergies and their systems and menu cater for his needs perfectly. My (fussy eater) daughter gets on well too and always comes home with a full tummy. 10/10!

I have had three children who have attended Bright Horizons Nursery over the past seven years. They are a kind, caring and professional team, offering a fantastic childcare service. My children enjoy the interactive, varied activities they put on for them and are eager to go to nursery each day.
13 January 2023
My daughter has settled in so well after initially being quite shy, she has made friends and loves all the amazing activities she gets to do. The addition since my son was there, is of the nursery app, which is excellent and gives me so much information about the day.
06 January 2023
The nursery has a real family-friendly feel, mixed with that a sound corporate backline behind it which as a parent makes me confident my child is having a great start in life. The staff are great and have done extremely well to continue running the nursery even with all wider external challenges going on. Our son is obviously having a great time and is being fed good quality meals. Little touches like all the staff knowing his name make it extra special. Would highly recommend this nursery and we will be sending our daughter there next year.

Fabulous staff and a very friendly nursery that listens to us and proactively works with us to give us the best development experience for our children. We love the size of this nursery, not too big and not too small. Dedicated staff that really seem to care and have a good focus on cleanliness and health and safety.

Barford has provided a safe childcare environment for my daughter from age 1-3. She is currently in the pre-school room, which I’ve noticed has really stepped up the learning and development and this has been reflected in my daughter's vocabulary and behaviour. In general, she enjoys attending the nursery, has a good relationship with her key worker and has made a lot of friends there.

We love Bright Horizons Barford Day Nursery and Preschool, our son loves going to nursery and all his teachers and friends there. He is flourishing with his play, speech and language. All the staff are amazing and always there for advice or to listen to questions or concerns.

Excellent nursery, the staff are brilliant and nothing is too much for them. My child is extremely happy there and I'm dreading the day when she leaves for school as I know she'll really miss them. Five-star nursery with excellent facilities and staff.

This nursery provides children with a magical learning experience, it provides a range of activities that promote learning, safety and well-being. The staff here have always been extremely attentive to my children's needs, it is a warm and welcoming nursery where both of my children feel happy and confident. They especially enjoy the outdoor play available and dancing and singing too. We also receive a daily report at the end of each day, which details what our children have been doing during the day, what they have eaten and nappy changes. All in all, a fab nursery, and we wouldn't choose anywhere else to send our children.

Barford is a great nursery. My son went there and now my daughter does. She very much looks forward to her mornings there and tells us of all the fun she has had painting, playing in the garden and playing pretend games with her friends. The staff are very caring and kind and communicate well with us as parents. Highly recommend!
15 December 2020
We are coming up to my daughters first full year in nursery having started in January 2020, and I have found Barford to be a great place for her to develop and grow over these last 12-months. Facilities are good, and the staff do a great job of providing a wide range of activities for her to do, which help develop different skills. Given the added challenges that this year has had with Covid, I’ve found the nursery to be extremely helpful and supportive and have kept us fully up to date of its plans and processes. The nursery has also offered alternative ways of catching up with Parents (Zoom calls) to support the child’s development. Overall I am very pleased with the nursery.

My daughter goes to this nursery and honestly cannot recommend them more. All staff are fantastic and friendly, with a brilliant level of care for all the children. I am always impressed by how happy and content the children look whenever I am there. The nursery is always clean and kept to a great standard. I have also found the level of care for the children to be of the highest standard, especially as my daughter does need extra help with some things.

We've been very pleased with how the staff at Barford Beehive have worked to settle our son into nursery. It's been particularly valuable that he has been cared for by the same member of staff, who has been able to build up a relationship with him and get to know him. This means we have also been able to build a relationship with his key worker, as we've always been given time for a thorough debrief at pick up time. It's been wonderful to see how he engages in the other children at the nursery and has tried out new activities. We couldn't recommend Barford Beehive enough!
