My son was new to this nursery and he settled really well in a short time, thanks to the staff and teachers who took good care of him during this time. He learnt a lot of things in here. He always wants to stay here and doesn't want to go home when I come to pick him up. This shows how much he is enjoying
his time here. If possible I'll send my second son here soon.

My daughter joined when she was 1 year old and the development and confidence she has shown has been significant.
The staff were excellent in accommodating specific needs and provide relevant and useful feedback on a daily basis.
There is no doubt that my daughter's personality and positive development
has been as a result of the staff's assistance and helpfulness.

Curriculum morning, all staff welcomed parents and children.
They were all very helpful and loads of information available.
They provide parents and children with the confidence to ask questions, answering fully and working in partnership as a group of 3 (children, parents and staff).

I can't thank all of the staff at Leeds Day nursery enough for getting to know my daughter and helping her settle in and for reassuring me too.
My daughter loves going to nursery and I am glad she has your staff in her life.

One of the best nurseries at Leeds, the staff are very caring and affectionate to the little ones. My little one had a very good time here. I would strongly recommend anyone to entrust their little precious gems with this nursery. They would be in good hands.

Excellent nursery, really happy with the staff and managers! My son never wants to come home when we collect him at the end of the day, however, this makes me feel better about leaving him with you whilst mum and dad go off to work. On another note, which I will discuss further, I feel that his bottom
doesn't get changed enough as it's only 2 times. So by the time we put him in the car and get him home he is wet through.

I love the nursery. The staff are very kind, they are really in love with our lovely babies.
The experience can't be described in words. My daughter settled in very well. Her confidence has improved, she is always talking about her friends from the nursery.
She will dress herself just to be able to
go to the nursery as soon as possible.
I would highly recommend this nursery. All the girls are amazing.

I love this nursery as much as my daughter.
Choosing a total stranger to take care of the most important person you've ever known is daunting. I was instantly put at ease by the staff at Bright Horizons Leeds.
The nursery is clean and safe. The choice of meals is varied and healthy.
My daughter has
been here for 18 months moving from baby room to rising 3's and all the staff are welcoming and supportive.

My daughter has been at this nursery since she turned 1 and is now leaving to start school. I have been so impressed with the level of care and education this nursery has provided my daughter. when she first started she did not settle at all. On numerous occasions I was told that she did not want to
do anything so she spent a lot of time being consoled by a member of staff. My worst fear was that she would be left on her own but she was given extra attention to ensure she settled in.
Since being in Pre-school room she has become confident and has learnt so much. The time and effort that the staff put into the children is remarkable and helps them prepare for school and the next chapter of their life.
Sending my daughter to Bright Horizons was the best decision I made and it has turned her into a well behaved intelligent girl.
Thank you to all of the staff who have looked after my daughter.

After only a short time at the nursery, it's time to move on to 'big' school. However, my daughter has been well and truly accepted as part of the family and supported to develop at her pace. The staff are always bright, happy and welcoming.

I had such a lovely afternoon at the Mother's Day tea. My daughter made a picture for me and planted a bulb, which I'm sure my daughter will love to watch grow. These events are so great to see what she does at nursery and how much she enjoys it!

I was very anxious as a new parent bringing my 14-month-old boy to nursery, but the staff were brilliant with my boy and so reassuring. I recommend Bright Horizons Leeds Day Nursery and Preschool to other parents as my boy has come along way. His confidence and social skills have grown and I am kept
involved with his development all the way. They do lots of activities and have fun. He loves nursery now.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.963)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.963) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Leeds 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.963 for Bright Horizons Leeds Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (208 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.963

  • 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 Leeds Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 18 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 69 number of registered child places is 13.8, which has been reached with 18 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.
