Following the lockdown, we had some concerns over putting our daughter into nursery but we did find a lot of reassurance from the policies and procedures in place at Bright Horizons. Everything is in place to protect and develop the children in their care and in particular we have seen a huge degree
of attention given to social distancing and cleaning procedures.
We get daily written reports and also receive regular zoom meeting calls from the staff with updates on our child’s progression, development, well-being and also more importantly how she is settling in and enjoying herself. Including photographs of the activities.
After a very short period she is doing amazing and getting more confident each day settling in and the time given by the staff, who she has already grown fond of and trusts as do we. It’s a lovely environment for them and well assured that our precious little girl is in good hands.
It is such a lovely nursery and I can't thank the staff enough.

My little girl has been attending the nursery since it reopened and is loving going in every day seeing her friends, we get daily updates of what she has been getting up to with photos and artwork. We receive emails updating us with upcoming events and also informing us of any changes that may affect
with who is able to collect which is a big help with us being able to sort child care out. We couldn’t thank the girls enough for all of the effort they do with keeping us up to date with her development through Zoom calls and telephone calls. We were worried about how she would settle after lockdown but the girls made every effort to reassure us that she would be OK. She now goes into the setting with a waving bye and blowing us kisses, that has made us feel really welcomed to the setting and we couldn’t thank all the girls for their hard work during a difficult time.

I can’t speak highly enough of the staff at Bright Horizons. They understand how to get the best out of my daughter and she is constantly learning and exploring. The staff are aligned with me and my partner on how we would like our daughter to learn. I wouldn’t let my child or any of my future children
go elsewhere.

My little girl started attending Bright Horizons Warrington in July.
I can not recommend the place highly enough, the staff look after her like she’s their own child. They accommodate any requests and keep me up to date on how she’s doing.
This has been a worrying time for me having my little one
start nursery in such strange times with lockdown, they have put me at ease in the way they look after her and even put up with my daily calls and are always friendly, nothing is too much trouble.

The nursery is by far one of the most friendly and supportive I have experienced. The staff go above and beyond to ensure children feel included and safe. The manager knows everyone by name and the whole nursery has a family feel to it. On many occasions I dropped by to pick my daughter up at times
when they did not know I was arriving... the children were always in a calm environment and engaged in activities, not just left to roam around.
The baby room is full of kindness and cuddles just as it should be. Children have daily activities that they take part in, and all staff make the effort to get to know the children. This was clear as in just five weeks, my one-year-old daughter was comfortable with her key worker and happy to go to her for a cuddle when dropping off.
I couldn’t recommend the nursery more.

My child has been going to this nursery since he was a baby. He really enjoyed the baby room, nursery room and now preschool room. He really enjoys going to preschool and has made some really good friends.
I have seen his progress in the last three years and believe that his care team and key workers
have been very involved and helping him with his learning needs.
I have always had great communication with the management team and his key worker and feel they have always been very approachable.
I would just like to mention that in last year there has been a lot of staff changes, probably due to some competition within the area, which might have impacted on continuous care.

This is an absolutely fantastic nursery. My son has been attending on a part-time basis since June and took a long time to settle in. The staff could have not been more wonderful with both helping my son settle in and reassuring me as a worried mummy. They tailored activities to my son's interests to
help him engage with the toddler room and were so welcoming, caring and loving towards him. The provision that is available for the children to access is stimulating and engaging as well as fun and educational, helping the children meet their learning goals for the age group. I really can’t recommend Asquith’s enough and it is so lovely to know my son is in a safe and nurturing environment whilst I’m at work.

My daughter started at this nursery just over two years ago and I’m extremely pleased with the progress she has made. The staff have treated my daughter like one of their own and I love hearing about her day in nursery. The resources are fantastic and my little girl loves using the extra facilities
available here such as the tennis courts and dance studios.
I have been to many parents events at nursery and seen first hand how every child is treated with the utmost care and attention they deserve. The food looks delicious and my daughter regularly tells us that she has enjoyed her lunch.
I have recently registered my son to start along with his sister at this nursery and I’m looking forward to him enjoying his journey as much as my daughter has.

Cannot recommend this nursery enough from the management to the nursery nurses and the chef. Management are so helpful and on hand with everything from everyday worries to paperwork etc. My 2 older boys are now 11 and 5 and have attended the nursery since being 11 months old and still talk about their
experiences of the nursery and the staff to this day. Just settling my daughter into the toddler room and the staff are so reassuring and caring making settling sessions so much easier and enjoyable.

My daughter started settling in at this nursery in March 2019. This nursery is just fantastic. My daughter had a complex health history and all of the staff were calm, knowledgeable and professional. As a parent, I really valued the free eight weeks settling in sessions. This gave us both a kind, gentle
introduction to being apart and at nursery. By the time I went back to work, she had a really good bond with her key worker and was really settled in nursery. The staff are amazing and communication between nursery and parents is outstanding. The rooms, facilities and activities are great. I am genuinely happy leaving her there on nursery days which is an experience I never had with my son. I wish I had moved to Great Sankey sooner. I can't recommend this nursery highly enough or express my gratitude to all the staff enough, especially the two staff who look after her most. It's the best experience of childcare I've ever had. Also, my daughter really loves the food. Thank you to you all.

The staff who work at this nursery always treat my daughter with such warmth and compassion. They show genuine concern for her happiness and wellbeing. They are there for her in a way a parent would hope when they can't be there themselves. She loves going to nursery, she has become so confident and
is making good progress. The offer of an eight-week induction was so valuable to us both when I went back to work. The staff really supported the transition and were understanding of my needs as an anxious parent leaving their child for the first time. They always take their time to have a chat at the end of the day and share with you what activities have gone on. We always get photographs which I love to see. They help families to feel involved, asking for an idea of what sort of things we do at home and then continuing this at nursery. I cannot fault the amazing staff at this nursery and couldn't recommend them enough.

From the settling in days to now I’ve always felt comfortable and confident dropping my little girl off. The staff are all so friendly even those that aren’t in my daughter's room. Any comments made are always picked up on and I like how the day fits around my daughter, not vice versa (sleeps in the
same routine as home, bottle times etc)
The daily book and photos are a really nice to be created with at the end of the day and the thoroughness of the information as to nappy change times, meals and how much or little has been consumed etc. This helps work out nighttime routine once she’s home.

This is an excellent nursery which we have previously used for our 2 older children who are now 8 and 7 years old. The staff are friendly yet professional. Our children still talk about their time at nursery now, which I think is a lovely attribute to the nursery in itself. Our third child who is currently
at the nursery has Downs Syndrome and we were anxious about her attending a mainstream setting as we worried that her needs may not be met. The staff at the nursery could not be doing more to ensure that this is not the case and have undergone additional training to ensure the optimal care for her. She has some lovely bonds with the staff and is thriving and thoroughly enjoys her time spent at the nursery. I cannot thank the staff enough and would absolutely recommend the nursery to others.

Our son joined nursery about 2 years ago and he settled in really well due to the excellent support of the staff. Personalised needs were taken into account. Regular feedbacks, family visit days, care plan reviews, were all helpful to help him settle/develop. His vocabulary and confidence continue to
grow and he feels happy and eager to learn, grow and make new friends. Thus far, it's been a positive experience for us!

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.
