Bright Horizons Salcombe Day Nursery and Preschool

I have two children attending the nursery both of whom are extremely happy and settled in their environment. I feel the nursery as a whole performs exceptionally. Throughout the pandemic, the management has handled the changes impeccably and the communication to parents has been kept to the highest level. Both of my children have special educational needs and I can verify that this mainstream nursery has gone above and beyond in the level of care and support given to them. My children are being nurtured and supported in a mainstream environment which is nothing but inclusive and understanding to every child’s needs. The key workers are phenomenal and it’s clear to see the diligent and professional work ethic is embedded in all the staff from management level down. Thank you, Salcombe for providing my children with the best place to learn and play.

My daughter attends the nursery three times a week, she is extremely happy!
All staff are very polite and supportive! I feel the nursery as a whole performs exceptionally.
My daughter has made a huge improvement in her talking and learning new skills.

Keyworker is really engaged in what my son is doing, she can talk in detail about his day every day and always answer any questions I have habit/behaviour etc. She always has new ideas about how to support my son and is os enthusiastic about what he knows and what she can learn from him. She’s taken the time out to have long conversations with me about some challenging behaviours and came up with strategies to move my son away from these behaviours, strategies that she shared so we could reinforce at home and they are working really well.

The nursery have been outstanding, they are caring and work with the parents. I couldn’t recommend more. My son attends the pre-school room and all of the staff are amazing – so interested in the children and nourishing.

The staff really cares about the kids and are willing to help accommodate and add days where possible.

Our children love Salcombe Day Nursery and preschool. The manager is fantastic as well as the staff member in the nursery room who looks after our daughter and the lady in the preschool room who looks after our son. The office keeps us up to date with everything we need to know. They were great during lockdown. The preschool graduation on Zoom and then the party afterwards was great for the children. Our son will miss coming here.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was ten months old in the baby room. She is now nearly four and in pre-school. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough and that is mainly down to the staff. My daughter took a while to settle in, and the staff went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. She loves going here and looks forward to going. She’s always telling me about the fun she has had and is learning so much at such a young age. The care is amazing and my daughter has formed loving bonds with each of her key persons, as well as other carers. The menu is amazing. She eats better than I do! The garden area is lovely with loads to do. They use their app really well. It’s updated throughout the day and they even send photos of activities. She has made some great friends too. This is an amazing and loving place and I’m planning on sending my youngest when I go back to work after maternity leave. Thank you Salcombe!

Both of my children have a great bond with their key persons, they feel really happy and enjoy coming into nursery and most times they don’t want to leave! The outdoor space is amazing and the staff are all lovely.

I am very happy with the care that my daughter receives at the nursery. She enjoys it very much and has made l lot of friends. I am impressed with the variety of fun and learning activities that the children have at the nursery. I also appreciate very much being informed about my child’s daily activities by email. I am sure she receives the best education and preparation for school. Never any concerns.

All members of staff are very friendly and always greet you with a smile. A very comprehensive handover is given at each pickup. We found the nursery very supportive of our child’s development. The quality of food and environment are of a high standard. Staff understand each child’s personal needs and acts accordingly. The staff display a very compassionate and caring attitude towards the children in their care.
