Morton Mains Early Learning and ChildcareMorton Mains House, 37 Winton Loan, Edinburgh, EH10 7AW

From the 7th August, Bright Horizons Morton Mains Early Learning & Childcare will be closing its doors and therefore we will no longer be conducting tours of the nursery or taking enquiries.

Bright Horizons Morton Mains has been a part of the local community for many years, and we would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our families and colleagues, past and present, who have been part of the nursery’s story.

We do have availability at our sister nurseries in the area,  Annandale and Elsie Inglis, which are available to tour now. You can arrange your visit by clicking on the links below.

We look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you to Bright Horizons.

Nursery Fee Calculator

Our calculator enables you to estimate your basic fees BEFORE childcare funding is applied. We’ve taken this approach as funding is dependent on your own very individual situation, how old your child is, where you live, whether you’re working, or you get discounts from your workplace.

Our comprehensive funding guides provide guidance on what funding you’re likely to be eligible for, we can send this to you after you’ve estimated your fees.

When you visit us, we can also help you understand your options and work out what your net fees will be after any childcare funding is taken into account.

Estimate your fees

Oops! We appear to be having a few technical challenges! Our team is working hard to get our fee calculator back up and running soon as soon as possible. Thanks for bearing with us.

In the meantime, if you need some answers or to book a nursery visit, then please call us on 01316 038 407, our friendly team is here to help.

Parent testimonials taken from daynurseries.co.uk.
  • Parent Testimonial
    "Can’t recommend this nursery enough. Rooms are spacious, great variety of toys etc and a superb outdoor space which is secure and not right next to the main road. The staff are all knowledgeable and helpful."

  • Parent Testimonial
    "Couldn’t be happier with Morton Mains. The fact my kids run in the nursery door every morning and refuse the leave at 5 pm is the best endorsement of the nursery."
