  • Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery and Preschool, Nottingham
Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery and Preschool (formerly Asquith Nottingham Day Nursery & Pre-school) is a bright purpose-built nursery offering childcare for children aged 3 months to 5 years.

Being located in the David Lloyd Club the children are able to utilize and benefit from the soft play area, tennis courts and swimming lessons which all the children enjoy.

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.

An enriching Ready for School programme gives every child the opportunity to gain knowledge and confidence to thrive in school and beyond.

The link with David Lloyd Health Club entitles parents to pre and post-natal consultations with a qualified Natal fitness trainer.

All parents registered with the nursery are entitled to a David Lloyd consultation which will support fitness and wellbeing post-pregnancy.

The nursery provides on-site car parking and is situated between two main hospitals, close to local amenities and on a major bus and tram route.

The nursery was rated 'Good' by Ofsted April 2017.

My daughter started nursery at just three months old as I was returning to university. The nursery staff in the baby room and the rest of the nursery have made me feel at ease when leaving her at such a young age. My daughter is now nearly 8 months old and smiles every morning when we arrive. She gets
to explore lots of different sensory activities that she wouldn't necessarily be exposed to at home. My daughter loves her nursery, friends and getting cuddles from staff.

The staff are brilliant - they really care about the kids and work hard to understand them and give them a fun day. The nursery also takes the kids to swimming lesson at David Lloyds which is great.The outside area is good and the kids are given lots of time to play outside. A key benefit is the amount
of free settling in sessions that are offered as it gives the children plenty of time to get used to the new environment and staff and the whole transition to work is a lot less stressful. Both my children are very happy at Asquith.

We all love Nottingham Day Nursery. My child loves it and so do the parents. We're impressed with the variety of activities, the attention to the kid's needs and personalities and the capabilities of the staff. All our child's carers are outstanding and communication is first rate. Food is excellent
and a valuable supplement to the home diet of a picky kid! Would recommend in a heartbeat. P.s love the themed weeks, space, meals etc first class.

Great nursery, staff are very easy to talk to and ensure they are up to date on any issues your child has when you drop them off. They take excellent care of my child and I never have any worries about how he will be during the day as I know they will look after him really well.


The children are

free to explore and they are often taken outside which I feel is very important. Food is good quality and nutritious, they are very careful with dietary needs/requirements.

My daughter has been with Asquith Nottingham Day Nursery from 9 months. Her transition into toddlers was excellent to where she thrives and achieves to her fullest potential. She is a very happy and contented child. Staff constantly build on friendships with my daughter, asking especially about her
weekend activities to co-learn into nursery activities. My daughter often relates nursery into her home life. Very happy overall.

My son has been attending Asquith Nottingham Day Nursery since he was 10 months old (he is 4 in six weeks) and loves going to nursery. I feel my child is well looked after by the girls. I'm very pleased with pre-school and how well they support my child, especially through challenging times. Couldn't
be happier.

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.
