I have been so nervous for my 8 month old daughter to start nursery but from her settles, the staff have been so friendly and welcoming and have already made good bonds with my child.
On her home visit, I was asked if there was anything I want the staff to help me with in regards to her development
and I said about her sitting up as she still cannot do this. A week of settles and she can already sit up unaided. I am amazed at this and cannot wait to watch her thrive through nursery.
Definitely wouldn't send her anywhere else.

Reply from Ashleigh Ord, Manager at Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery, Chadderton

Good Afternoon, thank you for your great review. I am so pleased you have noticed your child's development change within a short space of time. I look forward to seeing this continue throughout your child's journey.

Our daughter has been going to Brighter Beginnings Chadderton since the age of 1 and she loves it. The staff are really friendly, and caring and build close bonds with our little girl. She's developed really quickly in terms of speech, understanding and social interaction. They do lots of activities,
indoor and outdoor, and have plenty of resources that help her learn while playing. She's always happy to go to nursery which is a great comfort to us as parents whilst working, great work Brighter Beginnings!

My 2 boys have been at this nursery since January 2023! I had one very poorly
child and nursery were amazing. Looking after him, helping him through his operation, everything! He has grown so much since then (May 2023) he’s listening and understanding more! My 2-year-old started when he was 1. He has
amazing speech! He loves nursery and the staff talking about them at home! My experience is the staff are so kind and caring and loving and there’s no where else I would leave my boys. I will be sad when my 4 year old leaves to go to school
In September 2024.

My daughter has been attending for a year now and her speech is so advanced she can identify colours, animals, numbers and knows a lot of nursery rhymes. I can’t fault the staff they are very nurturing and supportive of each child’s development. Best decision I’ve made for my child.

The nursery has a caring approach to looking after my daughter. My daughter is non verbal and l was worried about how she was going to cope at the nursery. To my surprise, she started saying words that she has never said in 5 years and l sometimes cry and shout with joy. Not just words she even says
long sentences. Best nursery ever that l have hope my daughter will talk. She is always happy to be dropped off. Daily activities have helped develop my daughter's learning as well as free time play. Keep it up. l am grateful with the staff and they are amazing.

Our daughter joined Brighter Beginnings Chadderton before Christmas 2022, and it has been by far the best decision we, as parents, have made for our daughter. The Brighter Beginnings Chadderton team are super friendly and have such an amazing effect on our daughter. She has learnt so much and becoming
a more confident individual each day. Our daughter comes home after each day she is at nursery with new stories on what she has done/learnt each day, and the activities they do with the children are fantastic. We are so thankful to the team for helping our daughter become the funny and caring character she has become and helping to continue to develop our daughter on a road to greatness. Super team!

I recently changed my child's nursery to Brighter Beginnings, Chadderton and I can say that I am happy with this decision. The staff have been welcoming and friendly. They have updated me on my child's day, each day and what she had to eat that day, etc. They are also good with updating their social
media, so I can see what my daughter has been up to, playing, painting etc. My little girl is really enjoying her time here.

My first child went to Brighter Beginnings Chadderton and we loved it so much that our second child now attends even though we have moved out of the area. All staff are happy to help - they are amazing and treat the children like their own family. The resources and activities carried out are excellent
and very engaging for the children. My youngest has a great time every day he is there and my oldest has fond memories of the staff and time he spent there, so much so he is going to do some holiday club there in the summer and is looking forward to it.

The staff are absolutely brilliant. They go above and beyond for each and every one of them. My daughter absolutely loves nursery and has become very attached to all the nursery assistants. They have brilliant routines and day plans. They have helped through big milestone steps, such as potty training
and worked with me to reach these achievements. A lot of effort is put in daily. Seeing my child happy entering nursery saying good morning and constantly talking about the staff and children outside of nursery melts my heart. So great job and thank you Brighter Beginnings, Chadderton.

All members of staff go above and beyond but my son really has built a special bond with one member of staff in particular, in the rainbow room who has helped bring him on with his speech, wanting to use the toilet and everything in between. Honestly, I could not thank her enough! I am really gutted
that he will be leaving in a couple of weeks to join a nursery closer to home, but I would love to thank all the staff for their help.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.937)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.937) out of 10 for Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery, Chadderton 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.937 for Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery, Chadderton is calculated as follows: ( (359 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 382 Ratings = 4.937

  • 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 Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery, Chadderton is based on 32 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 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 32 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.
