Bright Horizons Eddington Day Nursery and Preschool

The facilities are brilliant, the activities really carefully thought out, and the staff at Eddington are absolutely fantastic – so friendly and caring and responsible. My daughter has a great relationship with her key person (and co-key person!) and can’t wait to go and play with her friends at the nursery every morning. It’s lovely to know I’m leaving her in such good hands.

Our son who is nearly three has been at the nursery for a year and a half now and we are really happy that we have found it. The staff are extremely friendly and go above and beyond supporting us as a family. This became especially clear during the pandemic, when the nursery stepped up a very robust cleaning and safety protocol, while managing not to change its friendly and personable atmosphere at all, quite a feature! They know every child by name and impressively manage to recognise all parents from a distance with their masks and hats on. It is always a pleasure to watch our son and his little tribe emerge from the nursery with fun stories of the day. Another extra are the special emails they send out on a regular basis which explain the reasoning behind some of the games which can be used at home. The nursery also has amazing facilities and is in a great location, so it is always a nice bonus to be able to hang around and play with a few other kids and parents after we pick up the kids.

Our two children have been very settled from the very first day. They have bonded well with the staff, who always seem genuinely enthusiastic about their development and happiness. We trust them to do everything for our children (and the others at nursery, too) and always know that they will have a fantastic time. Any queries have always been dealt with efficiently and communication has been excellent. They have coped wonderfully with the challenges of the pandemic and should be congratulated for their professionalism, hard work and kindness.

Superb nursery led by competent knowledgeable and friendly managers. Good provision of vegan options specially prepared by an in house chef. The staff put a lot of effort into planning activities for the kids and communicating with parents. My son enjoys going to nursery each day and we have lovely discussions about his day in the evenings. I particularly enjoy the photos and notes that are sometimes sent home. Helps me to feel included.

Our daughter joined Bright Horizons Eddington in 2021, and so far, we have had a very positive experience overall. The facilities are excellent, and the nursery staff have been very welcoming, helping our daughter to settle in record time (within a couple of days). Despite the COVID-19 limitations, during the last few months, the managers have been clearly communicating with us via weekly emails, our daughter’s key person provided regular developmental updates and was available for discussion whenever we needed. During winter, we were very impressed by the strict infection prevention protocols. Recently, more work was done to connect parents from children within the same room, via WhatsApp groups, which is really helpful to get to know other families. One of the challenges for this nursery is the long community waiting list, and we hope that in the future they will be able to accommodate more families settling within Eddington/close to the nursery.

My child loves this nursery.
Staff and management are brilliant, always helpful and supportive.
They have a person-centred approach and create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
I hope that my younger kid will get a place at Bright Horizons Eddington Day Nursery as well.

Eddington Bright Horizons is simply the best nursery we’ve encountered in our eight years of having our kids in childcare.

Over the last year, the team have dealt calmly with the unprecedented circumstances of Covid whilst always delivering an amazing service and a high degree of professionalism. I’ve been so impressed with the staff who are always enthusiastic to see my daughter in the morning and from her stories put so much effort into making sure nursery is a safe, exciting and enriching place. They’ve handled changing circumstances and procedures seamlessly and have provided my daughter with a lovely dose of normality during Covid.
The facilities are second to none including the on-site kitchen which produces super food for the kids.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery.

Our daughter has been here for the last 2 years since she was 9 months old. She has had a few different key workers as she progressed through the rooms, has always spoken positively and frequently about each of them, and is always eager to go. From the managerial staff to the practitioners, they seem to be a kind and genuinely caring nursery. They provide a wealth of information about the activities the kids are doing, continual detailed and meaningful progress reports, and at home activities you as a parent can do to assist your child’s development. We have seen them handle covid, and the response to a fire alarm effectively. This is the only nursery our child has been to, and whilst we don’t have anything to compare against, we don’t think there’s much, if anything, lacking at all.

Our children have been at the nursery for a total of three years now. We are impressed with the great communication with any changes or extra support our children have needed. Always friendly when we arrive. Our kids have been thriving under Eddington’s care.

The staff at Eddington Nursery are truly one of a kind. I leave my son every day knowing he’s in the best hands and care. The nursery itself is beautiful, safe with risk assessments in place, and managed well. Communication is outstanding, and we as parents are always in the loop about updates and feedback. We can’t rank this nursery high enough and thank the wonderful team at the Eddington Nursery!
