View Full Details of Bright Horizons Annandale Early Learning and ChildcareMy 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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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 involved in the nursery. Children always come away happy at pick-up time!
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.
Our daughter loves being part of Annandale Nursery and we are so impressed with the care provided. The staff are caring and approachable and have built a strong relationship with our daughter from the very beginning. The nursery is bright and inviting and is the perfect place to entrust the care of our child.
Our children love Annandale. They have developed good relationships with the staff and their friends. They enjoy playing in the garden, exploring their rooms and always devoursthe food! The staff are lovely - we get good updates from them and appreciate their support in developing our children into well-rounded little people.
Both my daughters have attended Bright Horizons Annandale nursery since they were babies. My eldest is now at school and my youngest is in nursery preschool. Having seen both girls move from the baby room to tweenies and then onto preschool, we have been happy with the nursery every step of the way. When selecting the nursery initially, we viewed four nurseries to get a feel for what we wanted and Annandale won hands down. It is not the nearest one to the house, but it felt like the right fit for us. Nursery have kept us updated every step of the way in respect of who the children were playing with, developmental milestones and learning activities. The children are often in the garden area, out for walks and regularly visited the library (pre-Covid). We have always found the staff to be very professional and the key workers bond well with the children. We are now confident our daughter is socially, emotionally and academically ready for school. We highly recommend Annandale.
My son has been attending Annandale for more than 3 years now and it is like a second home for him. He is always excited to tell me about the activities they had during the day, he especially loves the garden and the time they spent outside. The staff are all very lovely and helpful and the children are definitively well looked after. I couldn't be happier with my choice and would recommend this nursery with no doubt.
Overall, we are very pleased with Annandale nursery. The staff are dedicated and caring and they really helped my son to settle in, socialise and learn new skills.
My daughter has been enrolled at Annandale for the last 8 months. I have nothing but respect and admiration for the work of the staff in the Baby room. Our key contact is diligent and her caring approach to the welfare of our child is incredibly comforting. I couldn't recommend the nursery more highly.
Staff are very good and caring. They look after every child as an individual. They take interest in supporting your child with their learning.
We have been going to this nursery for years now and are very, very pleased with it. Not only does it provide a nice environment and good food (with on-site cook!) for our children, but, most importantly, it has a very attentive and loving staff. We are delighted to see that our children are always very happy to go to nursery in the morning!
I am happy with the nursery overall. I have two children in here and I like the care teachers, engagement, cleanliness and activities. The other things I do not like and I make sure that the carer of my kids know about it is the use of iPads. I know it is not very extensive but I do not see the need or value at this age. Everything in the early years can be done on physical materials (and it should be). All studies show that early use of iPads are negative for kid's development so I'd like the nursery to stop using them.
Annadale Nursery is a very good nursery. It has the kind teachers and good environment for children.
