December 27, 2022 at 12:00 amWe have nothing but praise for Bright Horizons, Winchester and its wonderful staff. It is clear that the staff care deeply for the children in their care and are invested in helping encourage loving, curious and resilient individuals to learn and grow. We especially enjoy the cooking activities from their in-house chef and the focus on outdoor play.

December 27, 2022 at 12:00 amWhen the team received their outstanding Ofsted rating, we weren’t at all surprised. This is a great nursery. Our son attended for nearly four years before starting school and our daughter has now been attending for nearly two years. We couldn’t be happier with the standard of care, warmth and commitment, shown by the team.

December 27, 2022 at 12:00 amBright Horizons, Winchester, since visiting last year, got our heart, we loved it straightway, environment, space and staff. Very welcoming, caring and friendly, always thinking of our children. My baby daughter started with visits in September and then twice a week over October and November, but unfortunately due to higher prices need to decrease to once a week; we will carry making the effort to have our girl there. From the third in charge to three other staff members in particular and other staff, they are all lovely, we trust them without any concerns.

December 27, 2022 at 12:00 amReally lovely nursery, our daughter has settled extremely well and is excited to be dropped off each morning. She enjoys telling us all about what she has been up to during the day when we collect her.

December 27, 2022 at 12:00 amThe nursery manager and all the staff are so friendly and have really helped my daughter settle into nursery. Nothing is too much trouble and they always make us feel so welcome. They have great activities set up every day and provide experiences for the children to learn skills and independence. My daughter often comes home singing or doing something new. They are offered great, freshly cooked meals and snacks, which my daughter always enjoys!

December 27, 2022 at 12:00 amWe are really happy with Bright Horizons and have been from day 1. Our son is extremely well looked after, stimulated and guided by a brilliant team. I have recommended Bright Horizons to many other parents!
He has thrived in the past year and made some lovely friends too. The staff go over and above to make sure they have a range of indoor and outdoor activities (come rain or shine!).

December 27, 2022 at 12:00 amFantastic nursery. Our son has been to two nurseries previously, we changed as we moved to the area and this is our favourite by far. He is excited to come and trots in happily every morning which is especially lovely as this was not the case at his previous nurseries. The staff are so attentive, he settled beautifully and with their help he is now potty trained. The manager, room leaders and key workers are all easily available and the communication between staff and parents is strong. Caters well for allergies/intolerances. The staff care deeply and it shows with how happy our boy is there!

December 27, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves the nursery here as well as the assistants.
It’s a loving and caring environment where the children are given the opportunity to develop but also enjoy the facilities to play and just be.
We couldn’t be happier with the nursery.

December 28, 2022 at 12:00 amOur children have a really good time together with learning new skills like how to eat in their own. All staff is really good and friendly. We are attending for almost two years now since they were 7 months.

December 28, 2022 at 12:00 amSince my first look around I’ve been really impressed with the setting and the team within it. Communication about my child has been regular and detailed giving me plenty of opportunity to understand how he is getting on developmentally. The team are professional, friendly and supportive.

December 28, 2022 at 12:00 amEvery single member of staff from all rooms of the nursery are friendly and helpful. My child loves being at nursery and has come a long way since attending. I feel confident she’s in the best hands when I’m at work.

December 28, 2022 at 12:00 amStaff have always been amazing with my son. He comes out with a smile on his face and lots of things to tell me that he has done. Had a parent’s evening last night and was lovely to hear comments about how he is doing, making goals with me to make sure he is getting the best out of Bright Horizons.

January 4, 2023 at 12:00 amOur kids love to go to nursery and their carers. We think carers are doing a great job, but could improve on taking care of keeping eye on the kid’s clothes. We have been missing some items and they don’t seem to be found, which I guess means that the item was put in another child’s backpack and never returned to the nursery to give to the correct child.
The nursery fees are very expensive and the fact that the fees have been raised twice in a year is shocking. I haven’t had 2 pay reviews in my work despite all prices increasing.

January 6, 2023 at 12:00 amDaughter is in the baby room here. She has a great relationship with the staff and seems very settled, which is a testament to the team and management! The app works well and we can see regularly throughout the day what she is up to. An ongoing thank you from us!

January 6, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter is loving her time at Bright Horizons Winchester. The staff are really caring and know her really well. They are always coming up with new, imaginative activities to stimulate the children and are always on hand to give them cuddles when they need it! They have helped her work on her developmental skills -using cutlery and an open cup. She gets a wide range of food at the nursery, which she enjoys.
The staff are always smiley and full of energy, even after a long day.

January 31, 2023 at 12:00 amOur daughter is very much enjoying her time at Bright Horizons, Winchester. The staff are experienced, caring and welcoming. They engage our daughter in activities and are very diligent in updating her profile on the app, to explain what they are working on. Perhaps the most notable point is there is no/limited staff turnover. This is a huge plus for our daughter, as she spends time consistently with the same people.

April 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter gives a cheer whenever I say it’s nursery day – what better reaction can you get from that! I absolutely love the staff here. You can tell from the offset they are passionate about early years and have taken great care to get to know my daughter as an individual. I was recommended this nursery through a friend and couldn’t be happier since joining over 8 months ago. My daughter is one very happy customer and I am certainly one very happy parent. Thank you to all the brilliant staff. You make this the outstanding nursery that it is.
