    Sadly the time has come to move on, but I will happily praise the whole team and my little boy’ s time! He barely spoke last September and now he is chatting non- stop, and that is down to the lovely space and the terrific room leaders. We have both been so delighted to see how well our little boy has come on over his year at Magic, Finchley.

    Thank you for having me and I will miss you when I go to my new school.” The food is yummy and I consistently eat everything. I also LOVE my teachers and they run lots of marvellous and enjoyable sessions for me and my friends. My eldest says of her time“ I adore playing with my friends here and I get stickers when I’ m wonderful. We receive photos of the sessions they do and team consistently take time to answer any questions, tell us what they have enjoyed and if they have learnt something new. The team here have consistently been incredibly knowledgeable and kind to them, as such, they sense at ease development here. Both adore going here( and will tell you exactly this if asked!) They enjoy everything offered– the music, dancing, storytelling, art, being in the garden, mealtimes, as well as phonics, maths, show and tell for my oldest and sensory play for my youngest. My youngest joined in March 2022 and is now in Toddler Room. My eldest has been here ever since September 2019 and is finishing preschool.

    The day‑care also has a terrific lunch menu for kids all year round with a terrific variety and well- balanced nutrition. – all extremely stimulating for young kids. My little boy truly enjoys the extra classes/ sessions available at Magic, such as drama vision, kangaroo kids, stretch n grow, observing newly hatched ducklings, fire engine visits etc. Last week our little boy was formally discharged by the pediatrician and we are extremely delighted that he is developing so well as a young boy. More recently, his key worker and the SENCO worked with the pre- school team to ensure his development is on track with the right assistance and attention. In particular, when my little boy had a couple of seizures in late 2016( with no identified medical cause) the Magic team responded quickly and made sure he received the right care. This is to help him settle into the new school. We are leaving Magic to attend a day‑care within a school, which he will then attend when he turns four. My little boy had an remarkable journey with Magic Nursery ever since April 2016.

    I am extremely satisfied and delighted that I chose this place for my little boy. Thank you so much for providing such wonderful care and affection to my little boy. When I go to pick him up and see him laughing and playing around, it’ s so comforting to know that he is delighted here. The energy and the positivity of the team, even at the end of the day, inspires me a lot. They are consistently welcoming to discuss and keen to address my concerns. Administration is extremely welcoming and cooperative. My little boy is 2 years old now and already he has developed a habit to put everything in order and in the correct place. Nursery is providing a enjoyable development time. In the early days of his attendance, team put every effort to make him sense at home and now he wanders around in day‑care like a king. My little boy adores going there. Nursery is extremely clean, bright and spacious. Very hardworking and attentive team.

    Definitely not the quality of management you would expect associated with the name of Bright Horizons. Her deputy is rude. The headmaster only exists as a weekly email update that is copy- pasted from the previous weeks. The clothes are stolen and the team then ignores inquiries.

    We able see our kid’ s transforming. When there is trouble with kid’ s development, day‑care helps to explain or create a scenario to let kid understand more. Our kid is delighted there, building up relationships with key worker and friends. We able see the day‑care keeps growing and improving in the past 2 years.

    Thank you for nurturing our kids in their early years. The management has turned around ever since my kid’ s arrival and the team seem delighted and motivated. The kids appear to thrive and consistently enjoy themselves. A attentive and lovely space.

    It’ s consistently hard finding a environment that your kid will enjoy but seeing how my little girl has flourished alongside her peers, I have no doubt all kids will do well under their care. I strongly suggest Bright Horizons Finchley Central Day Nursery to all new guardians. My second little girl will also start there at the end of the month( 8months old too!) and I look forward to her starting her educational journey there. My little girl has graduated pre- school and will go off to Reception in September- the day‑care have given her the stepping stones to be confident and school ready. They are attentive, attentive and knowledgable and truly spend time to get to know the kids and their likes/ dislikes. They consistently lend a listening year and give terrific advice when your kid reaches a new milestone. With that said, the current management and team employed there now are superb. In the 4 years of her attending, there has been quite a few changes of management and team. My little girl has attended Bright Horizons Finchley Central Day Nursery and Preschool ever since she was 8 months old.

    What’ s most impressive is how they have prepared my kid for school and we believe he will have a smooth transition to school in September. They understand my kid’ s needs and tailor- made some development materials for him. The teachers are so loving and attentive. There’ s been loads of improvement made. My kid is currently in the preschool room which is absolutely remarkable!

    We are so delighted with Magic, extremely sad to be leaving, only leaving because of job relocation. On a daily basis, there are loads of sessions and my little girl has truly developed in speech and confidence. As well the kids are brought on different outings like the park, supermarket. I like that the Nursery is bright, airy and there is a separate garden area for little and big kids. The menu is varied and my little girl has eaten food I may not necessarily cook and has developed extremely wonderful eating habits, adores her fruit. The transition between the different rooms was extremely well organised and my little girl moved happily into the next room. She is in a secure and secure space. My little girl has developed a terrific relationship with her key workers, she is delighted going into Nursery in the morning. The management are professional and security is outstanding. The team are extremely attentive, attentive and welcoming. She has been extremely delighted there. My little girl has attended Magic Nursery from the age of 9 months.

    The dedication of the team is greatly appreciated. We are delighted to have chosen Magic for these key years in our little boy’ s development. Great day‑care, the team do terrific work and there was constant attention towards our little boy throughout these past 2 and a half years.

    We have seen incredible improvements in our kid’ s development ever since they were a baby there, and continue to be delighted with their progress. From day one the day‑care helped us as guardians to sense confident and coached us through all the developmental changes our kid was going through. Both as guardians and for our kid. We have had a marvellous time here.

    Big shout out to every single member of the team. As guardians, we felt extremely reassured that our little girl was spending her time with a dedicated, professional and kind team who did everything to help her grow healthy, clever and kind. My little girl had an remarkable time at Magic Nursery in Finchley.

    We wanted to stay with Bright Horizons as we had such a positive time before and we are so delighted we did. We have recently moved and the team and team were so flexible with date changes and helping to settle our little girl in.

    In addition, the recent renovation and equipment make this place a terrific choice of day‑care. The team are absolute gems and offer a terrific space for my boy. It’ s consistently been a warm and well- run day‑care and I’ m consistently confident in the care and attention my kid gets. I’ ve had my kid here ever since he was 6 months and he’ s been here for two years- give or take due to covid!

    A tailormade plan on settling in was created for us and my little boy was able to build a relationship with his key workers who are outstanding at delivering the daily care and development requirements. This to me showed me the team were not shy to showcase their operations. What was even more refreshing was it was the first day‑care who were confident in saying don’ t sign up until you try us- see if we are the right place for you. The team instantly connected with us and were interested in my little boy’ s specific requirements as well as a family and how we felt. This proved a challenge until I met the team at Bright Horizons, a refreshing change from some of the other nurseries we had seen in the area who were commercially driven. As a first time parent, finding the right day‑care for my 12- month- old little boy was important not only from a care perspective but a place that will nurture and encourage my little boy’ s development as we would in our own home.

    The nursing team is superb and we would like to thank everyone for making it a terrific time for our family. My kid adores attending the day‑care and she consistently comes home with new songs and new skills.
