Our children are very happy at Bright Horizons. We feel happy and confident in the care they are receiving. All of the nursery staff are happy to listen to any concerns and help with any additional support that is needed. Our children enjoy a variety of activities daily, both indoor and outdoor. They
have always been made to feel at home. Both have always skipped into nursery.

We moved to Bright Horizons Rugby Day Nursery and Preschool after my son was struggling to settle with his (at the time) childminder. As a family, we were all particularly nervous about this transition, but the team at the nursery were all incredibly supportive and comforting and nothing appeared to
be too much trouble to ensure this transition was smooth for everyone. My son is currently in the baby room and the team are all very enthusiastic, caring and friendly and are wonderful role models for the children they look after. We are incredibly happy with the child care that Bright Horizons provide and feel very happy that our son is comfortable and happy in his new setting and just know his development will be impacted in such a positive way.

My son attends Bright Horizons, Rugby and I cannot rate them highly enough! He is learning so much and has grown in confidence tremendously! One member of staff in particular, in the toddler room, is incredible and really does go above and beyond and my son truly adores her! We cannot thank them enough
for everything they do!

Just Wow! I love this nursery so much, I looked at so many in Rugby and I knew as soon as I visited Bright Horizons Rugby Day Nursery and Preschool, I just knew this was the nursery for my child! The staff were so friendly, chatty, kind and welcoming and straight away made me feel at ease. When my child
started the nursery he came back so happy and content. The staff reassured me so much that he was doing well by sending me pictures home on the app so I could feel even more at ease. I could see that he had eaten even better than he does at home. The range of activities from the pictures I get sent are mind-blowing and my son clearly loves it, from the huge smile on his face. He says that he wants to go to nursery 24-7. He enjoys it more than being home! The manager has always been so helpful and friendly whenever I’ve had a query and all the staff constantly have a huge smile on their face! The food looks and sounds delicious and he always eats seconds. I cannot recommend this nursery enough!

My son has been going to this excellent nursery for nearly a year now and he is thriving. I get sent pictures and updates throughout the morning so I can see what he is going. I can log into the app to see what he has eaten. The staff are kind and caring and he loves going there.

Bright Horizons (Rugby) is a truly amazing nursery. We have had one child go through from toddler room (having moved from another nursery) and currently have another in pre-school having started in baby room. The facilities and staff work as a team and always have the children's best interests at the
heart of all they do. The manager and her team are always there on hand to handle any issues or concerns, we may have, professionally and courteously. I would recommend Bright Horizons (Rugby) to any parent looking for a nursery for their children. Without a doubt the best nursery in Rugby.

The nursery was recommended to me by my sister, who was so happy after both her children attended this nursery. I now have two of my own there and I could not recommend it enough. Every single member of staff is fabulous. They care so much for my children and are so kind. The activities are varied,
educational and really bring out the best in my children. The food is amazing, I know my children are eating a variety of healthy, delicious food. The staff regularly ask for home learning links and will follow them through with my children to consolidate their learning. I get daily feedback on what they have done and how they are doing. I can see throughout the day how the children are on the app. I regularly get sent pictures of my children and educational updates. I would not be happy leaving my children with many people, but at Bright Horizons I have complete peace of mind. Thank you to all the staff.

We have been so pleased with Bright Horizons Nursery - our little one only attends one day a week and the baby room staff know him so well just from that small amount of time. They know exactly how to get him smiling and laughing - it is nice to know that we are leaving him in safe hands and that he
is happy and well cared for throughout the day, and being constantly entertained with all the exciting activities the staff organise. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parents considering it.

I am so happy with how my daughter is progressing at nursery, I could not thank the manager and her team enough for all the hard work they put in for my daughter. I was told by specialists that she would never cope in a mainstream nursery due to her additional needs. I looked into nurseries that have
won the local county awards and found Bright Horizons, my daughter is doing amazing and coming on fantastic. Thank you all for your help. You really do deserve your local county award.

Bright Horizon has been absolutely brilliant in helping our son settle into nursery in a very difficult year for any child growing up. The toddler room team have been wonderful and supported us throughout it all. It’s lovely seeing how much he has progressed over the past 10 months and this is a credit
to the team at Bright Horizon. The nursery Manager is brilliant she will always try and ensure she can help support us when a request is made and is just super efficient and effective in the way she manages all queries!

I visited lots of nurseries before my eldest started with this nursery. I got a great feeling about the nursery which turned out to be bang on. My eldest loved her time at here and my youngest enjoys every minute too! The staff are fabulous, kind, caring, friendly and with tons of experience. The variety
of food is excellent and the setting is amazing in my opinion. Lots of activities and the effort that is put in to get the little ones ready for school is outstanding.
I’ll be sad in September when out family journey with the nursery comes to an end.

I couldn’t be happier with the nursery as a whole as well as all the staff. My youngest has been going here since the baby room and is now in the preschool room. The staff are so accommodating, helpful and there has always been great care taken when moving up to a different room, to make sure she has
settled in happily. My daughter has a favourite staff member, who is so patient with her obsession of her but even when it’s her day off, she still enjoys her day with all the other ladies and children.

My little boy has been at Bright Horizons Rugby Day Nursery and Preschool for two and a half years and I cannot recommend the nursery highly enough. My son loves going and settled in well after just a few sessions. He has a fantastic key worker who knows him really well and the rest of the staff are
amazing too. Throughout Covid-19 the staff have been wonderful and made life feel a little bit normal for both me and my son. We will both miss the staff so much when my son starts school.

One particular member of staff is amazing. She always provides lots of information on the boy's day and wellbeing. On the nursery days, the boy keeps waiting by the door with his backpack, happily waving to mummy and blowing kisses when dropped at the nursery. He'd always bring new sounds home.

I couldn’t recommend Bright Horizons Rugby enough. Throughout the pandemic, the staff have done everything possible to help me feel confident about my baby attending the nursery. From continuous updates to regular check-ins - I couldn’t have asked for more. The staff put everything into making sure
the children and parents are happy. My baby gets very excited when he is dropped off each morning and loves seeing everyone there.

My little boy joined the nursery in a bit of a rush after our previous childcare placement fell through due to covid-19. The nursery staff were fabulous at helping him settle into a new placement and it wasn't long before he made himself at home. He is thriving at the nursery. His speech and social
skills have come on no end and he is enjoying new activities and adventures; such as forest school and the bee-bot. The staff give a thorough hand over at the end of each day and have been very supportive with nap times and hint and tips with potty training. We even had our first parents evening, which was very exciting! I can't imagine him going anywhere else now.

Knowing that your child is happy and well cared for when you return to work is something every parent hopes for. I, like most parents, was apprehensive when looking for nurseries after the recent lockdown, but the staff at Rugby Day Nursery have been nothing short of wonderful for both me and my son.
My son has settled in far faster then I could ever have anticipated and loves every session, leaving with a beaming smile on his face. His key person has been fantastic at communicating every detail and all staff are incredibly friendly and approachable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Rugby Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 5.000 for Bright Horizons Rugby Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (180 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 5

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Rugby Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 63 number of registered child places is 12.6, which has been reached with 15 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
