June 15, 2021 at 12:00 amMediocre. Our son has been at this nursery since Jan 2018. Since then it changed hands from Asquith’s to Bright Horizons and the quality has sadly declined. Whilst they had to deal with the chaos of Covid, they dealt with it badly. For 6 months the nursery had a reduced “covid” menu which they claimed was due to food supply problems. I had to get in touch with the Bright Horizons UK MD to get this sorted. Utterly ridiculous. The nursery has lost a lot of great staff, including an absolute stellar pre-school teacher and has gone through several managers. Some of the staff that remain, hold the place together. We would have removed our son if he wasn’t off to school in the next few months. Although pre-school leadership is severely lacking, so we aren’t sure this was the best decision. Overall, a sad decline of what was a great nursery.

January 28, 2022 at 12:00 amMy child attends the pre-school room at Teddington Cedar Road. She has attended this nursery for over three years now and I can see the progression in her intellectual development and social skills. The staff are very informative when feeding back and it’s lovely to see what my child has been doing throughout each day via the app. My child comes home and shares her day talking about what she has learnt and the staff which is lovely to hear.

January 28, 2022 at 12:00 amBright Horizons Cedar Road Teddington is a fantastic nursery. My son has been attending for 18 months and is incredibly happy. The staff are attentive, caring and provide an environment which enables children to develop. They really focus on individual needs and make sure everyone is accommodated. We are incredibly happy and seeing our son so happy there is wonderful.

February 15, 2022 at 12:00 amMy three-year-old daughter attends the nursery and loves it. She is in preschool for afternoons a week and goes in so happy. She has learnt so much in such a short space of time and is now learning to write her name. Certain staff who work in the pre-school room are so fantastic at their job and you can see they really care and give me a full report of everything she has learnt every day. The room is so full of energy and happy children every time we go in. The nursery is so clean and organized and having had two sons in previous nurseries in the past we are way more impressed with this one.

February 15, 2022 at 12:00 amMy 2year-old son joined this nursery one month ago when the covid situation was again getting serious. During this difficult time, we find the nursery has met all requirements set out in the various government guidelines to ensure they keep the children and staff as safe as possible. In the meantime, they are still providing the children with the resources and educational needs to ensure they continue to develop. That’s brilliant!
The staff are all very friendly, they make the whole environment as harmonious as being home. It didn’t take long for my son to settle in and soon he feels happy to go to school every day.

February 15, 2022 at 12:00 amWe have had our child in pre-school since September last year. We transferred from another nursery due to a house move. At first, she was not keen on going to her school, which we expected. But I must say, it didn’t last a week and she was already very excited about going. It must be due to different factors – a bigger nursery, a much bigger outdoor playing area, etc. But it also must be due to her teachers (as we’ve soon found out). Not long before she started giving them hearty goodbye hugs every time we picked her up from school. She is very much interested in the pre-school programme, as we can tell by her singing new songs at home, showing us her new skills, etc. We’re very excited about all her progress and very thankful to the nursery and teachers supporting our child. One more thing I’d like to mention is the very extensive and personal feedback we receive daily from the teachers when we pick our daughter up. Thanks!

February 15, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son attends the preschool at Teddington Cedar Road Nursery and initially started in the Toddler Room in 2019. We are delighted with his time over the last 3 years at the nursery and the care and attention the team give has seen him thrive and develop from a shy toddler to a confident preschooler. We feel he is currently being prepared very well to make the transition to school in September and he looks forward to his days at Bright Horizons every week. His key workers, room leaders and management team have shown such dedication and kindness, especially during the last two difficult pandemic years and we will be very sorry for our son to leave to start school. This nursery comes with our highest recommendation.

August 8, 2022 at 12:00 amWe are delighted with the first rate childcare and dedication of the team at Bright Horizons Cedar Road. We have seen great strides in development in both our boys who are clearly happy and thriving at nursery. From developing their motor skills, focussing attention in play and activity, to learning to walk and interact with their key carers and peers around them, this has been a wonderful experience for our boys. We are noticing development at home every day – things like holding a spoon and working out games and puzzles. We would highly recommend! Our thanks to the team for their skills and hard work.

August 8, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son joined the nursery in March and he really enjoys the time he spends there. He settled very well into the baby room thanks to the amazing team and the carefully planned settling in sessions. His key person has developed a fantastic bond with him and has supported his development in key areas, his confidence in particular has improved so much. The team in the baby room have done so well in making him feel welcome, comfortable and secure – we can see this in his interactions and it is so reassuring. We enjoy seeing what our little one has been up to through the app; the observations are a delight to read and really make up our days.

August 11, 2022 at 12:00 amThis is a lovely spacious, light and airy nursery with attentive, friendly and accommodating staff – anything you need they are there to support. When my youngest was about to start nursery I re-looked at options, despite my eldest being happy there. I hadn’t looked at a nursery since 2019 and I wanted to compare facilities and reaffirm that Bright Horizons Teddington Cedar Road is right for us… it is! Cedar Road had the friendlier staff, more spacious rooms and the biggest outdoor area. Plus, my eldest loves the food! I also like that there are multiple baby and toddler rooms, rather than lots of children all together, which must be quite intimidating for them. My experience is of the baby room and toddler room and both are excellent! The staff are energetic and smiley and you feel confident leaving your little ones in their safe hands. Keep up the good work!

August 17, 2022 at 12:00 amWe feel so fortunate to have chosen Bright Horizons for our 4.5-year-old daughter. The preschool and office team have gone over and above in providing the care and support for her. She has needed a lot of additional help these past few months and we couldn’t have felt more comfortable that she was in the right hands. The care both she and we have been shown has been amazing and I really can’t recommend them enough. She loves attending, has learnt and progressed so much and we have more of an issue getting her to leave at the end of the day than we do dropping her off. We feel she’s being incredibly well set up for her next big step to big school, both intellectually and mentally and our only worry is how she’ll cope without one member of staff in particular and the rest of the preschool team around her.

December 2, 2022 at 12:00 amFinding the right nursery for my daughter was probably the biggest and most important decision so far, in our journey of parenthood. Like all mums, handing over my most precious daughter to someone I didn’t know, gave me anxiety. I probably visited every nursery in Teddington and asked every mum I met along the way where they sent their baby (pros and cons). I left nearly every nursery feeling more anxious and even considered how we could make it work, if I didn’t go back to work. Then I visited Cedar Road, although this isn’t the closest nursery to me by proximity, for me it glowed way above all the others. Why? The staff are all super friendly and warm. Not a crying baby to be heard, which was not the same for other places. The app provided daily updates, documenting development. Quick chat via the app for any questions/concerns, which is always responded to quickly. How happy she is, she loves her key worker. I could go on and on, knowing what I know now, I wouldn’t hesitate

December 2, 2022 at 12:00 amOur child has been with the nursery since joining the baby room, in March 2021 and is now in the toddler room. They were great at helping him to settle in and he has grown so much in confidence over the last year and we have seen the skills he is learning, every week. We have been so pleased with the nursery and all the staff who are lovely and approachable.

December 2, 2022 at 12:00 amBoth of my children attend Cedar Road Day Nursery. My daughter is in preschool and my son is in the baby room. Both are incredibly happy! My eldest is always very excited to attend, has made lots of lovely friends and can’t wait to tell us all about her day at pick-up. She also loves all the learning. The staff are wonderful, all very friendly and attentive to the children. A really lovely bunch of people, who you can tell care about the kids.

December 12, 2022 at 12:00 amWe’ve had a positive experience with the nursery and our child enjoys attending every day. Our child started in the baby room and is now in toddlers. The activities the children get to do are exciting, structured, themed and different every week. There is a decent outside space for a city nursery and they did take the children to one of the royal parks in the summer. The staff are caring, thoughtful and really show interest in the child’s development, ensuring they are growing into happy little humans! There is an app which allows you to track your child’s progress, which is helpful to understand their meals, nappies and sleep patterns. Overall, very happy and impressed with the manager, deputy manager and the team at Cedar Road.

December 12, 2022 at 12:00 amReally happy with our choice to send our baby to Bright Horizons Cedar Road. The staff are so friendly, warm and great with the children. The outside space was the big selling point for me and the ability to go inside to drop off and collect makes you feel connected and able to see how the children interact and play. The communication including the app, the daily updates from key workers and general info from management is also great. I have and would 100% recommend it to friends and new parents.

December 28, 2022 at 12:00 amWe have had a great experience at Bright Horizons in Teddington. Our daughter has been attending for the past couple of years and has been so well cared for by all of the lovely staff. She always has fun and often doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day. She’s developed and learnt so much through the activities they do with her. The outside space is wonderful and communication from the nursery is always excellent. A big thank you to the whole team and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery to other families!

March 3, 2023 at 12:00 amI don’t even know where to begin! Finding the right nursery for your child is a daunting experience, you want it to be right, of course. The first nursery I viewed, was awful, so much so I stopped my nursery search for 2 months and; was reconsidering putting my son into nursery at all! Then I viewed Bright Horizons Teddington Cedar Road Day Nursery and Preschool! I got the same feeling walking in, for the first time as I do walking into my own front door, it felt like home. It gave me that feeling of security. It just got better from there! The Manager felt like an old friend. So professional and personable. The rooms were spotless but played in! I loved the way the children would identify their names with their photos on the register and the outside playing space! My son loved it, he settled in so quickly and quickly bonded and formed a relationship with his key worker, all of the staff were attentive and friendly. I loved watching my son blossom and grow at nursery and developing in ways at home I perhaps couldn’t assist with!

April 19, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little one has been attending Teddington Cedar Road since the beginning of the year and I cannot praise the team enough. Having recently gone through a marriage separation and moving back to London from overseas, the team has been beyond understanding of our situation and have gone over and above to accommodate us and support our son through the transition. They are patient, kind and extremely supportive and my little one has been thriving there! He has formed bonds with the staff and the kids and the activities are always fun and varied. He has become a more confident speaker and generally more social as a little boy. He eats so well – the food is nutritious and you can tell that a lot of thought goes into the menu. Playtime outside is his favourite activity – and their outdoor play area does not disappoint! To have that space for the little ones to roam around in is a huge plus! Beyond grateful to the team and I could not recommend the nursery more.

July 23, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Teddington Cedar Road since August 2022 and she’s been loving it since day one. She started fairly young and admittedly, I was quite nervous in the beginning (especially as a first-time mom), but looking at how happy and excited she was in the mornings, has really reassured me that this was the right place for her. Facilities are excellent, the outdoor area is quite spacious and that was also one of the considerations when we made the decision.
I can’t thank the deputy manager and 3 other staff members in particular and the rest of the staff enough for the care, attention and guidance they have provided to my little one in the past one year. I greatly appreciate it and we can only recommend the nursery.
