October 29, 2020 at 12:00 amWe’ve been using the nursery for 3 years and currently use the baby 2 room and preschool. We are so impressed with the standard of care and education our children are continuing to receive despite the current circumstances. We love that they learn Spanish and are encouraged to learn and play in a safe environment.

October 29, 2020 at 12:00 amMy little girl started nursery in August 2020, so we weren’t able to settle her in the room and had to drop her at the door. The staff were so wonderful with her, it made a difficult situation easy as it was clear that my daughter was comfortable and happy to see the staff. The staff were really supportive and understanding for us as parents too.
The staff are always really friendly and knowledgeable about the day – from what she’s eaten to how long she’s slept to whether she’s been grumpy or had a dance! I’ve seen her walking come on loads and her social skills have been great! She is also sleeping much better through the night which is priceless!
In terms of Covid, we have been getting regular written communication of any updates. The staff clearly take the situation seriously with PPE and social distancing. It has been so reassuring to know we are in safe hands. I’ve been so impressed and would recommend to any of my friends or family.

October 30, 2020 at 12:00 amI am very grateful for the brilliant staff of Bright Horizons Didsbury nursery and pre-school for looking after my child since she was 1.5 years old. The staff are so caring, gentle and engaging that every morning I feel very happy to take my child there. My husband and I are very appreciative to all members of the staff.

November 3, 2020 at 12:00 amOur son has been attending this nursery since about 6 months old and every stage has been fantastic and he loves it. All the staff are so welcoming. More specifically throughout the pandemic, they have been outstanding in their support for parents, children and their resilience. They must have acted with the utmost level of caution and cleanliness as minimal disruption or covid cases. Yet keeping a friendly and social environment for kids to help with some level of normality in these awful times. Along with the updates and understanding emotionally and financially for parents. We can’t thank you enough.

December 18, 2020 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves Bright Horizons Didsbury.
She has an amazing relationship with her key worker as well as all the other staff in the nursery. I get great updates from the staff about what she has been up to as well as a comprehensive report about her development.
The nursery has gone over and above to help us with potty training, and we wouldn’t have got to where we have without their involvement.
Highly recommend.

February 19, 2021 at 12:00 amTop-quality caring staff that care for your children as if they are their own. Our 2 girls have learned so much including Spanish! They both waltz in during the morning and are always happy when they leave. We have found their medical care and communication around the same to be impeccable and their teaching is top quality. You see with the other kids leaving with their key workers at night that our 2 haven’t struck lucky – everyone seems to be cared for equally well.

February 22, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Bright Horizons Didsbury since she was 1 year old, she is now 4. The staff are so dedicated, positive and approachable and my daughter is so happy attending 3 days a week.
I really feel her nursery and preschool experience has increased her confidence and her abilities and I feel that she will be extremely well prepared for starting school this year.
I love that she learns Spanish whilst there and have nothing negative to say about her time there.

February 23, 2021 at 12:00 amWe love the nursery and the staff so much.
Everyone is so supportive and had overcome so much with the Covid crisis to ensure the children aren’t affected.
Our son is 3 and loves it there, he is very happy. Loves the staff and all the activities.

February 26, 2021 at 12:00 amWe couldn’t be happier at Bright Horizons. The commitment and professionalism is outstanding. The team at the Didsbury branch is very passionate about what they do with the highest level of engagement in the children’s development.

May 18, 2021 at 12:00 amI would recommend this nursery to everyone, without any doubt. Lovely staff, very nice facilities and a wide range of food options. Everyone is very cheerful, caring, and professional. Happy Son, happy Mum.

May 27, 2021 at 12:00 amI could not be happier with Bright Horizons Didsbury Day Nursery. My three-year-old was in one of the toddler rooms and is now in pre-school, and my baby is due to start soon. Quite aside from the high standard of the building and facilities (especially the outside space), Bright Horizons Didsbury is noteworthy for its exceptional staff and management. Having experienced two other nurseries, I can safely say that this one stands out not only in terms of the levels of care provided but also the levels of professionalism. My child is thriving and happy in this environment, and I never have concerns about leaving him. It’s worth noting that all staff that I have encountered across both rooms are excellent. The standard of learning and development is exceptional, and it is a real bonus to have a toddler who can now speak better Spanish than me. Communications are first rate and management are incredibly responsive. There are, of course, cheaper nurseries but Bright Horizons Didsbury is worth every penny and then some.

August 16, 2021 at 12:00 amMy Daughter has been attending Bright Horizons Didsbury for almost a year. In that time she has settled in well, made lots of friends and really enjoys her days at Nursery. The staff are kind, patient and attentive. I would highly recommend this Nursery.

November 1, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter attended Bright Horizons from age 1 through to pre-school. She has always been happy there making friends and loving the staff and all the activities. She came on so much at the pre-school even came home speaking Spanish. The food has always been excellent and my daughter eats a wide variety of food. My son will be starting in February, I wouldn’t dream of sending him anywhere else.

March 28, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son attends the nursery and is currently in the Toddler 2 room. He is very happy and I am happy with the care and education he receives. His key person is a qualified teacher, so I am assured he is learning lots in preparation for preschool. He has made lots of friends and I get regular updates on the family app.

April 20, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son started at Bright Horizons when he was 2.5 years old. I was concerned that being a late starter at nursery (and an only child), would have a negative impact on his personal and social skills, but the nursery and staff have been wonderful at helping him to settle in and flourish. The staff are warm and caring and are supportive of all the children and any concerns the parents may have. I love that they have some outdoor space to run around in and the app is great for keeping parents and guardians updated with their child’s activities and schedule. It’s a great nursery and we’re hoping to increase our son’s number of days there, in the near future.

April 20, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son has been attending for over a year now, starting in Baby Two and now in Toddler One. All the staff from his key worker to the nursery manager are invested in him and his journey. Every child is different and they treat each child as an individual and invest in their development. They work with us, as his parents, on areas of further development and encouragement. My son’s time so far at Bright Horizons Didsbury Day Nursery and Preschool has been full of fun and laughs. Seeing his face light up each morning and run into his room to meet his friends is heart warming and we know we’ve made the right decision choosing Bright Horizons Didsbury Day Nursery and Preschool.

April 20, 2022 at 12:00 amOur children love attending Bright Horizons. All the staff know all the kids and they are kind, caring and I feel confident knowing they will come home happy every day. They think of all sorts of interesting activities for the children to take part in. We have loads of confidence in the management, particularly the manager, who is amazing. They are super flexible and we’ve always been able to pick up an extra day if we need one on top of our regular pattern. They have a great app, where they share pictures and updates about the kids learning too. The children spend lots of time outside in their garden and they’ve recently planted flowers in wellies. If there’s one thing I’d make even better about the nursery it would be to make the outdoor space a bit less astroturf and a bit more mud-filled, but it’s a very minor complaint and I’d recommend it to anyone.

May 12, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son started at Bright Horizons when he was nearly two years old. I was worried that he might not settle quickly given that he was a bit older, but the staff were so kind with him and he settled in very quickly. He has allergies so I worried about his food choices, but the staff have been careful and considerate at every step. He eats a really wide variety of food and the chef makes him special dishes that are dairy-free. They even have his oat milk ready for him each morning, so he can have cereal with the other children. He loves going into nursery every day and he always talks about the staff in his room. He was even asking for his room leader when he was on holiday! I am so glad I picked Bright Horizons for him They really are a brilliant nursery.

May 12, 2022 at 12:00 amOur daughter has attended Bright Horizons, Didsbury from the baby room, through the toddler room and now to preschool. She continues to thrive and amazes us every day with what she has learnt. I have no doubt she is so ready for school in September and this is due to the curriculum at Bright Horizons. The staff are friendly and approachable and all seem to genuinely care so much, going above and beyond each day. I would not hesitate to recommend the nursery to others, especially for key workers like us who cannot take the usual holidays off at Christmas, etc.

May 12, 2022 at 12:00 amFriendly staff. Transitions between rooms are well managed. The app is really useful to keep an eye on the little one during the day. Our little one is always happy to go in the morning and happy when we pick her up.
