Bright Horizons Teddington Cedar Road Day Nursery and Preschool

She is in preschool for afternoons a week and goes in so cheerful. She has learnt so much in such a short space of time and is now discovering to write her name. Certain team who work in the pre-school room are so remarkable at their job and you can see they truly care and give me a full report of everything she has learnt every day. The room is so full of energy and cheerful kids every time we go in. The childcare centre is so spotless and organized and having had two sons in previous nurseries in the past we are way more impressed with this one. My three-year-old daughter attends the childcare centre and loves it.

They were excellent at helping him to settle in and he has grown so much in self‑assurance over the last year and we have seen the skills he is discovering, every week. We have been so pleased with the childcare centre and all the team who are lovely and approachable. Our kid has been with the childcare centre since joining the baby room, in March 2021 and is now in the toddler room.

Our son has been at this childcare centre 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 childcare centre 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 childcare centre has lost a lot of excellent team, including an absolute stellar pre-school teacher and has gone through several managers. Some of the team 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 excellent childcare centre. Mediocre.

We have seen excellent strides in development in both our boys who are clearly cheerful and thriving at childcare centre. From developing their motor skills, focussing attention in playtime and activity, to discovering to walk and interact with their key carers and peers around them, this has been a fantastic journey 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 suggest! Our thanks to the team for their skills and hard work. We are delighted with the first rate childcare and dedication of the team at Bright Horizons Cedar Road.

The team are so welcoming, inviting and excellent with the kids. The outside space was the big selling point for me and the ability to go inside to drop off and collect makes you sense connected and able to see how the kids interact and playtime. The updates including the app, the daily updates from key workers and general info from management is also excellent. I have and would 100% suggest it to friends and new parents. Truly cheerful with our choice to send our baby to Bright Horizons Cedar Road.

Our kid started in the baby room and is now in toddlers. The activities the kids get to do are exciting, structured, themed and different every week. There is a decent outside space for a city childcare centre and they did take the kids to one of the royal parks in the summer. The team are attentive, thoughtful and truly show interest in the kid’s development, ensuring they are growing into cheerful little humans! There is an app which allows you to track your kid’s development, which is supportive to understand their meals, nappies and sleep patterns. Overall, highly cheerful and impressed with the manager, deputy manager and the team at Cedar Road. We’ve had a positive journey with the childcare centre and our kid enjoys attending every day.

Finding the right childcare centre for your kid is a daunting journey, you want it to be right, of course. The first childcare centre I viewed, was awful, so much so I stopped my childcare centre search for 2 months and; was reconsidering putting my son into childcare centre at all! Then I viewed Bright Horizons Teddington Cedar Road Day Childcare centre 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 expert and personable. The rooms were spotless but played in! I loved the way the kids 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 team were attentive and welcoming. I loved watching my son blossom and grow at childcare centre and developing in ways at home I perhaps couldn’t assist with! I don’t even know where to begin!

We transferred from another childcare centre 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 highly excited about going. It must be due to different factors – a bigger childcare centre, a much bigger outdoor playing area, etc. But it also must be due to her educators (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 highly 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 highly excited about all her development and highly thankful to the childcare centre and educators supporting our kid. One more thing I’d like to mention is the highly extensive and personal feedback we receive daily from the educators when we pick our daughter up. Thanks! We have had our kid in pre-school since September last year.

Like all mums, handing over my most precious daughter to someone I didn’t know, gave me anxiety. I probably visited every childcare centre in Teddington and asked every mum I met along the way where they sent their baby (pros and cons). I left nearly every childcare centre 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 childcare centre to me by proximity, for me it glowed way above all the others. Why? The team are all super welcoming and inviting. 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 consistently responded to quickly. How cheerful she is, she loves her key worker. I could go on and on, knowing what I know now, I wouldn’t hesitate Finding the right childcare centre for my daughter was probably the biggest and most important decision so far, in our journey of parenthood.

She has attended this childcare centre for over three years now and I can see the progression in her intellectual development and social skills. The team are highly informative when feeding back and it’s lovely to see what my kid has been doing throughout each day via the app. My kid comes home and shares her day talking about what she has learnt and the team which is lovely to hear. My kid attends the pre-school room at Teddington Cedar Road.
