My daughter (nearly 1) has been with Bright Horizons for just over a month. She has settled in really well thanks to the nursery staff who have been only too happy to do whatever it takes to make sure she's settled and comfortable there.
She has a lovely time in the baby room and it's so reassuring
to get updates via the app throughout the day. The staff also come across like they really care about the children which is lovely to see.
I'd be happy to recommend the nursery to anyone looking for quality childcare.

All the staff is very friendly and detail-orientated. They also look after the development of each kid individually, for example providing support and encouragement for my daughter to walk. The adaption period is very useful in assigning key workers to each kid which makes everything smoother. We are
very happy in general.

My daughter loves this nursery! She currently accesses the pre-school room where I find the staff to be exceptional in their approach to school readiness. I can’t believe how quickly she has bonded with certain members of the team; it’s like she’s added new members to her family! I find communication
with staff to be easy and enjoyable; couldn’t be happier! Keep up the good work!

My 3-year-old son has recently joined the nursery from another setting, his transition was fantastic and we felt so welcome by all members of staff and management.
Now 2 months later it’s like he has been at the nursery forever. Communication and updates are excellent and my child enjoys all activities
and the food so much.

We have had our twins at Bright Horizons Warrington Nursery for nearly two years. Overall it is an excellent setting. The staff is very friendly and extremely caring towards the children. Everyone is willing to help and we always get a detailed update at the end of the day while the app is brilliant!
There have been a few changes in staff over these years but the transition has always been very smooth. Overall we couldn’t have made a better choice and our little ones love being at the nursery!

The nursery have been so lovely and very wonderful with my kids. My daughter has been at the nursery since she was 2 years old and my son from 6 months and are now 4 and 2 respectively. I have also seen so much progress in their development and education. I have truly loved the standard that all staff
have done in caring for my kids. Each and every day I pick up the kids, the teachers always take time to inform me of my kids' day. I love the way they have encouraged and nurtured my daughter’s love for swimming, tennis and general outdoor activities. All these are also uploaded onto the nursery app where stories and pictures are also captured and shared with parents. Absolutely amazing. Teachers are ever so friendly with both kids and parents. I definitely rate the nursery a 10/10.

My daughter has attended this nursery for the past 4 weeks and she has settled brilliantly. She is always happy to come to nursery which makes my day so much better when going to work. The staff are amazing with her and I feel they have really got to know her very well. She has a food intolerance and
the staff have been brilliant in catering for her. Thank you.

Wonderful setting, well organized and intact and clean environment all the time with the amount of toddlers they got in there. Honestly, the staff doesn’t stop working whenever I go there. Overall am impressed with set-up systems and all the staff. My daughter loves going to nursery and she is always
excited to tell me about her day and who her friends are. She adores all of her teachers and never wants to come home which I see as positive knowing that she is happy and learning new things all the time. They even send home a learning bag for us parents to complete over the weekend which are always fun and exciting for her to do.

All of the staff are excellent with our daughter, she was welcomed brilliantly from the first day and she settled really well thanks to them. She loves going to nursery and her speech and understanding has come on so well. The variety of activities they do with the children and the learning opportunities
they provide are great. We highly recommend this nursery to anyone in the area.

A fantastic nursery! Lovely facilities, friendly, capable and educated staff. Great app which keeps us informed of what the little ones are getting up to during the day. Always available to speak to or contact whenever needed. Flexible approach with additional days. Menu is great and varied. Our little
one has just started swimming lessons within the nursery setting which is an added bonus. We have a very active three-year-old and she is very happy going into nursery and we know she is busy playing with friends, learning new things and most importantly cared for.

The kindest staff, and the best teaching. My son is so happy at nursery and I can see for myself with the videos and photos they post! They know all the children so well, it's very personal and the staff all genuinely care and love the children. It makes going to work so much easier and I don't feel
a bit guilty because I know he's having a wonderful time. We've seen a massive progression in my son's development and he is always pushed to be the best he can be and encouraged to be himself at the same time.

The team at Bright Horizons are amazing! They have been an extended part of our family for over 5 years and both my children have loved their time there. During lockdown, they did everything they could to help the children feel settled and at ease in a new location
I felt appropriate steps were taken
to enable us to have much-needed childcare support whilst being covid safe (well as much as you can be). The team are all great and truly care about the children from babies up to preschool and it’s given my eldest a strong launchpad to school. Would definitely recommend.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.942)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.942) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Warrington 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 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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 4.942 for Bright Horizons Warrington Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (405 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 430 Ratings = 4.942

  • 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 Warrington Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 36 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6, which has been reached with 36 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.
