There is a large refurbished garden area that includes age-appropriate spaces for the children to enjoy and explore which enables the staff to use the outdoor area to extend the children's knowledge and development.

Their unique Healthy Hearts and Minds activities provide inspirational and engaging learning experiences using the innovative and well established Boogie Mites and myHappymind programmes.

The girls in this nursery are wonderful. My daughter attends this bright, positive, welcoming nursery. I leave my daughter in the care of these girls, while I go to work and I do that with 100% confidence, that they genuinely love and care for every single child in their setting. My son also attended
here until recently and they both thrive in this environment. The care is second to none by all, even the lovely chef! I highly recommend this nursery.

My wife and I are very happy with the level of care that our son receives from the wonderful team headed by three members of staff in particular. We love the daily updates of our son's time at nursery on the app and seeing pictures of him. Our son loves nursery and has come on leaps and bounds in his
development, thanks to the team. We love to see he enjoys himself, eats well, gets his sleeps and generally loves coming to nursery. We are also very grateful for the advice we are given, to coordinate our efforts with nursery.

All the staff work hard to build and maintain their relationship with my daughter and other children. Everyone at the nursery communicates any information promptly and effectively. I have always felt my daughter is receiving the best quality of care at this nursery and have recommended it to others
when given the opportunity.

My son has been doing two settling in sessions a week for the past few months, before starting in May. All the staff have been so welcoming and accommodating and my son seems to have settled in very well. I feel very comfortable about him attending for full days.

My son has been coming here since he was 11 months old. I have seen his confidence grow and is now speaking clearly. He often talks about his friends and key people at home. The app is very informative and gives me all the information about my son's day. I am able to check the app throughout the day
to see how he is getting on.

My child has loved being at Bright Horizons. He is always happy to go in and gives big smiles whenever we mention the staff at home. We love all the photos and the app telling us what our child has been up to, letting us know important details and keeping us up to date is so important to us. At this
nursery, we feel our child is loved as well as looked after. A name rather than a number. The only thing is there is no option for teacher holidays, so quite expensive.

Since my son started at the nursery in November 2021 right up until and including now. I have been very impressed with the nursery structure and all staff members. Everyone has been so welcoming and accommodating and made the whole experience easy and enjoyable for both my son and my family. I have
seen a real progression in my cons confidence and understanding since starting at nursery and I am very pleased that I chose Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery and Preschool after researching and considering several nurseries.

The nursery staff are all so kind, informative and welcoming. My son and myself were very unsure about nursery but after several taster days, I realised that he was in extremely safe and kind hands. My son soon settled into nursery too. The app that the nursery uses is very reassuring. I can see more
or less live what he's up to and the instant messaging facility allows me to communicate with the staff easily. I even get to see photos of what he is up to. He seems to be doing something fun and varied each week. It's great.

Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery have done a great job of communicating with us and keeping us up to date with what's happening on a day to day basis, the app has been brilliant for this reason too! They're also very good at keeping on track with each individual's progress and making changes to
help with development.

Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery is an exceptional nursery, whereby the staff, I feel, go above and beyond to meet the needs of each individual child. My son's main key persons are the most professional, caring, understanding and efficient team members and myself and my son's father feel 100%
confident in their and the other staff member's ability to help my son and also his peers thrive. The management team have always responded in a timely, professional manner to any queries raised and I couldn't be happier with our son's current development since he began attending Bright Horizons.

My child has been attending this nursery since he was around 10 months old. He loves going to nursery and always has the best time. All staff are friendly, understanding and very caring. I always feel at ease and comfortable leaving my child at nursery as I know he is in safe hands. His overall development,
learning and confidence has grown tremendously since being at nursery. Knowing my child enjoys nursery and is having fun makes me as a mother so happy and content.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.923)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.923) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.946 for Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (193 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.946

  • 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 4.977 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 17 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 87 number of registered child places is 17.4. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.4 = 0.977

  • 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.

Krupa

Krupa

Job Title: Nursery Manager

My name is Krupa and I am the manager at Bright Horizons Nottingham. I started my journey with Bright Horizons in 2021 along with my children who attend the nursery. Whilst completing my BA Hons Degree in Childhood Studies in 2009, I knew very early on that I wanted my career path to be within the Early Years sector.


I have worked in numerous schools, children's centres, Private Education and orphanages, where I have been able to learn and develop in all my roles and I believe that I am still learning every day.


My passion is to make a difference to the children and the team I work with, along with supporting them.


I truly believe that our environment is the child’s first educator and by having core principles children are able to flourish and be ready for the wider society. I am excited to be working at Bright Horizons Nottingham and be part of developing this welcoming nursery further.
