  • Bright Horizons Kenton Day Nursery and Preschool, Harrow
Bright Horizons Kenton Day Nursery and Preschool is based in a lovely converted house with close proximity to the Bakerloo and Metropolitan Tube lines.

The baby room contains a stimulating sensory area, books, singing and storytime. In the toddler room, children enjoy using the indoor slide to develop balance and coordination skills.

In the brightly-coloured nursery room, children are encouraged to gain independence, with all aspects of learning covered in an exciting way.
A qualified preschool teacher plans the day's activities in the preschool room and children are invited to make their own decisions to gain independence and confidence.

There will be lots of fun activities for everyone as they have developed a new wildflower garden, separate baby gardens, mud kitchen, Sandpit, digging patch and vegetable garden… not to mention the new climbing frames that will be great for exploring.

Review from F C (Mother of Child) published on 30 November 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My daughter has easily settled in this lovely nursery with a family feel to it and she loves it. Every time I pick her up I find her relaxed and smiling. She clearly receives all the care and cuddles much needed to a 7-month-old baby.


The staff are very kind and it is really nice, even to just have

a chat with them.


Management I find really excellent too, very professional, but also personable. Everyone is very knowledgeable too and provides good baby advice.

This is the best place I could send my child to. Awesome care and affection.


My son has changed so much due to the way he has been handled here - he was always given so much affection, care and he learnt so much. Everybody here is lovely, wish my son could stay here more.

Over the past four years, I have been so pleased with the nursery and how my daughter has progressed.
She has learnt a lot and built many friendships.
The foundation she has been given will definitely help her in her transition to school.

It was a wonderful experience to see my daughter grow and learn during her time at Kenton Nursery. The staff and ambiance are really nice and they always helped to sort out our requests.
We will cherish the pre-school memories for a long time.
Thanks to everyone for such a wonderful and memorable

All staff are excellent. My daughter has achieved so much by attending Kenton Nursery. Very clean and a wide range of activities take place.
I would recommend this nursery as I am proud of the knowledge and skills my daughter has learnt and gained.
Thanking all the staff as she grew up in the baby
room up to pre-school.
Everyone will be missed dearly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent child care. I will recommend this nursery to family and friends. The staff is very caring. My daughter has formed a very good bond with staff and other children. She has learnt a lot there and loves going to the nursery.
The story, rhyme, circle time is very helpful education:- she counts
numbers, basic letters and overall is developing her personality with the help of staff.
I was at peace at work when I leave my daughter there.

I would highly recommend this nursery to any parents who are looking forward to quality and satisfactory

I am happy with the nursery. My daughter comes home happy and exhausted telling me she has had a good day. She also comes home with a new song or word telling me she is learning lots too. The staff are friendly and communicate well. Overall very impressed and happy with my experience and the care of
my baby.

The staff in the nursery are marvellous. My son has been at the nursery since he was 6months old.
He settled in quite nicely, now at 18months old he is always excited to be at the nursery.
Being my first child, they were able to help me settle in as well. Trust me the settling in session is also
for mothers also.
A job well done.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My son joined the nursery room in January 2015 and although he took time to settle, the staff have always been kind and understanding. He then moved to preschool when he turned 3 and this is when he started enjoying nursery more. He made special friends and bonded with the staff. The learning in preschool
is excellent and my son is now reading and writing and impresses me with what he's learnt. He will miss his friends when he joins school in September!

My little angel started her nursery a year ago. From her initial days we noticed her bringing new skills home, which is an absolute joy to see. We have been very impressed with the professional, caring and friendly approach of all nursery staff and how they encourage my daughter to develop all her new
key skills. Our family and friends are impressed by her personality and commended on how happy, independent and confident she is. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for quality childcare.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.619)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.619) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Kenton Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 12 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.937 for Bright Horizons Kenton Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (136 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.937
  2. 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 4.682 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Kenton Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 88 number of registered child places is 17.6. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.6 = 0.682
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
