Bright Horizons Hertford Day Nursery and Preschool

We chose Bright Horizons, Hertford, as we had a good feeling about the nursery when we looked round on the open day. My daughter happily went off and started playing with the toys and enjoyed running around the large garden. Three staff members, in particular, are so friendly and informative. We love the Bright Horizons app, on which, we receive updates and pictures of what my daughter’s doing, throughout the day and I can see, she is happy! Highly recommend!

We have been very impressed with the level of care our daughter has received since she joined Bright Horizons, Hertford. My daughter is more confident around children and adults and is developing at an amazing rate, particularly with her speech and understanding. The team were very understanding and attentive last week, when I was concerned, she was not well and reassured me. Very kind, bubbly and caring nursery workers, who genuinely care for my daughter. Thanks so much!

Highly recommend! We are so pleased that we chose Bright Horizons in Hertford and have been blown away by the staff, from the beginning. The longer settling-in process was great and allowed a chance for our son to really get acquainted with the staff, over a period of time and settle into his new routine. The staff are all so friendly and kind, knowing all the children’s and parents’ names and always saying hello/goodbye. Nothing is too much for them. They’ve handled my son’s allergies with such ease and the updates we’re sent, daily, really make my day. I cannot recommend this nursery enough. My son absolutely loves going in, the variety of games and activities they do is fabulous and the chef-made food, tops it off. Thank you so much for creating such a warm, safe and happy space.

Bright Horizons, Hertford is such a kind and friendly nursery and my daughter is so happy there! I was very nervous for my 18-month-old daughter to start nursery, as we had spent every moment together until then and she hated being apart from me. At the start, she cried every time she left me, but the staff were so kind and caring and worked with us so well that within a few visits she is so different. There are no tears at drop off and she tells me all about how much fun she has there, she especially loves the outdoor time every day. I love the app and her key worker is great at updating it throughout the day so that I can see what she’s been up to and what food she’s eaten. She has become much more social and enjoys being around the other children and I can see a big change in her confidence levels since starting there. The nursery is always clean and my daughter really enjoys her time there.

I cannot recommend Bright Horizons, Hertford enough. From the baby room, all the way to preschool, the care for the children in each of those rooms is second to none. All the staff make a great effort to build a relationship with not only your child, but yourself as a parent. Communication is faultless. The setting itself is lovely, with a great little garden.

My little boy has been at the nursery since he was 9 months old, and now he’s 27 months old. He joined during Covid and it was hard to trust a place you couldn’t see in person, but he has loved it since day one and I have always felt like he has been given the highest level of care. He comes home full of smiles and his key worker and the other staff in his room are all brilliant and supportive.
I would recommend the nursery to anyone looking.

The nursery has been fantastic from the first day we even enquired about it.
Settling in period could not have been easier without the guidance of their staff putting us as parents at ease and making the transition to nursery smooth.
All 3 of our children love attending the nursery and the staff gives all children equal attention and care. Pick-up times are great with breakdowns of each of their days described by staff. Hearing the stories of the day from our children and the staff is amazing, we are very proud parents. We look forward each day to updates on the app used by staff to update parents with pictures, videos and observations.
Witnessing their relationship with the staff grow every day ensures us we made the right choice. It is the best decision we made to send our children here.

Our little one has been at this nursery since she was 10 months old (now 3 years old) and we can’t recommend it more highly. Our daughter loves it! Every colleague is kind, compassionate, supportive and there is a real family feel. The activities, staff, creativity, room and outdoor space, is I think the best in the area! We’ve already booked a space for baby number two!

Our daughter has thrived whilst being at Bright Horizons. It’s amazing to see her development and great to hear how the staff all have such an insight into her progress and the level of care they provide, is fantastic. Our daughter clearly loves it there.

I could not love this nursery more! Ever since my son started at 2 years old, I have felt so secure leaving him in the care of the wonderful staff at Bright Horizons, Hertford. My son and I have built a beautiful relationship with his key people as well as the rest of the team over the past two years, which I will miss greatly when he goes to school in September 2023. My son runs into nursery, three times a week and doesn’t look back, his days are filled with so much fun and laughter, as well as learning in all shapes and sizes. I consistently get a rundown of his day when I collect him, which always makes me smile. Whenever he’s had an accident or isn’t feeling well, I’m informed straight away, which fills me with confidence that he’s been well looked after and attended to, at all times. I definitely have Bright Horizons to thank for my son’s intelligence and knowledge and am thrilled we chose to send him to Bright Horizons. We will be devastated when he can no longer go there and miss you so much! Thank you, Hertford team, we love you!
