"We have joined a waiting list (for community members not related to Cambridge university) in early 2020 for my child’s expected start date in mid-2021. Always the same answer ever since: no new places for community children. We stayed on the list and later added our second child as well. The process of managing that list is very opaque with comments provided in advance of how big the list is and how we should not be counting of getting a place. After we once were removed from the list by mistake, then also discovered that due to my husband employer we should be on the top of it but we were not for years, finally last summer I raised a complaint to Bright Horizons group and it was investigated with conclusion that nothing was wrong. However, just some days after that suddenly there were spaces offered for both of my kids (despite the fact that we have already received a notification that there will be no new spaces until the end of 2023). After visiting the nursery and meeting with the manager we did not have a good feeling about this nursery(compared to the one where our kids go since the age of 1). It’s a beautiful building/facilities but the garden is very limited in terms of climbing equipment and other playground type of things that active kids really can benefit from. Manager made a very ‘marketing’ like presentation that lacked authenticity and we left with a feeling that something was fake about it. Together with how the waiting list was managed we decided not to take up the offered places and kept our children at another nursery. I don’t want to say that I think this nursery is bad but I do think that it’s all corporate while at this age kids need a family-like support. There are better places in Cambridge."

"Really recommend Pear Tree Montessori Nursery. They genuinely care about your little one, my 2 children were well look after, proper early year educated, and most important really happy in Pear Tree Montessori Nursery. The management from top to bottom is very well designed. Re-located my younger one only because of save school run time with 2 different school directions. I would recommend this nursery, and thank you Pear Tree Montessori Nursery."

"I can not speak highly enough of Beech Oak Pre-school. The staff are friendly, professional and very loving to the children, which makes going to work so much easier. They have given my son a great start to schooling life. Anyone looking for a local nursery/preschool MUST apply you won't regret it"

"The staff has done a tremendous job creating memories for the children. They are the key to what makes this nursery so special. My daughter still regularly ask for Agnies, one year after leaving the nursery! Agnies is outstanding, she brings energy and enthusiasm to the room and the children adore her!"

"Elmwood is a remarkable Montessori nursery, brimming with warmth and compassion. We feel truly fortunate that our son has had the chance to cultivate strong social and emotional skills while being so thoughtfully nurtured by the dedicated teachers at Elmwood."

"We love this nursery! My sons been attending since he was 9 months old and absolutely love it. The staff are amazing, I never worry about leaving him as I know they look after him as they do their own. The space is lovely and welcoming, they get lots of outdoor time and love their principles and practice. I couldn’t recommend it any more. Ofsted report does not reflect the care and provision the children are given. Having worked in childcare in an ‘excellent’ nursery, I know it is not all it seems. I would put my child in Chapel Grange over any other nursery provider Oftsed report or not. Thank you all for making our nursery experience such an excellent one. For me all that matter is the care my child gets and he gets over and beyond from all the amazing staff. Thank you X"

"A wonderful caring and dedicated team. My kid goes in without hesitation and loves every day she spends at nursery. She is always happy, comes home singing songs, showing off what she's learned and sharing bits of her day. Thank you all for all the love and care you have for our children!"
