Welcome to Bexleyheath Day Nursery and Preschool, where dedicated staff are committed to providing the best care and early education for children aged 3 months to 5 years. The nursery in Bexleyheath benefits from excellent transport links. Located close to Bexleyheath station and North Greenwich tube and 5 minutes from Bexleyheath town centre. In addition, their nursery has an onsite car park for drop-offs and buggy storage area and a holiday club.        

With a beautiful garden, which includes four dedicated areas for each of the age groups, the children enjoy free-flow access from their classrooms and have access to a wide range of activities and resources to support their development while having lots of fun. They are fortunate to have their very own chickens, which the children adore making friends with, and a qualified sports coach runs regular sports lessons to encourage a love for physical activity.

In addition, they offer Boogie mites an interactive music and movement session, which is loved by children of all ages and provides exciting opportunities to learn about the world through music and song; and while your child is busy exploring and having fun, they can keep you updated via the Family app. Available for all Bright Horizons parents, this will keep you connected with your child's day-to-day experiences and up to date as they develop during their time at the nursery.

Review from Lisa F (Mother of Child) published on 27 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My second daughter has recently joined this nursery. It is lovely to know that she will be going somewhere that her sister enjoys so much. The staff are all very welcoming and supportive of both my girls’ needs. My eldest daughter is currently in pre-school and is ALWAYS happy when we go and collect
her. She is always singing new songs she has learnt or telling me stories about the various activities she has done that day. She has made many friends since starting Teddies and she obviously thinks a lot of the staff, this is most evident when she insists on running into the office and cuddling everybody before she leaves! I found leaving my second daughter at nursery easier than my first as I am confident she is in good hands and will thrive in the lovely surroundings.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We now have 2 children at Teddies, our eldest just going into pre-school and our youngest in a toddler room.


Teddies has felt very established from the start, a big old house that is divided into great spaces for the children and a huge garden for them to explore out the back.


Our youngest started

recently and we have seen a noticeable step up in the nursery in general since our eldest began.


They have implemented recent changes which are reflective of what a nursery should be doing, identifying what the parent's needs are before issues arise.


The staff have always been friendly and warm, and the current management team proactive and approachable.


There are only positives to be said about the nursery, including planned refurb works to the rooms, to make them more modern after you can see plenty of children have enjoyed destroying them over the years.


Well done team!

Review from Toyah M (Mother of Child) published on 30 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My family have been using Teddies for years now, the oldest now being 14. I am confident that my son is getting the proper care he needs and learning through play. My son loves going to nursery and often talks about friends and what he has been playing at when he is back at home.
Like all mothers,
I was really concerned leaving my son with people that I didn't know, but the staff at teddies made this a really easy transition for both myself and my son. I will defiantly be sending my younger son there next year!
I think the fact that 13 years after we sent my niece to teddies I am still choosing teddies as the best nursery to send my son to speaks for itself... And there is still a number staff there that looked after her too!

I have two children attending full time at Teddies Nurseries Bexleyheath who love going there. It has a good reputation and is close to the train station which is very convenient for working parents.


I would recommend the nursery to friends.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My older son attended Teddies and I marvel at his development while at Teddies. His speech and concentration were a concern for us before he started and we worried he would struggle a bit but when we met his teachers and they told us of the steps they would take to improving his learning and speech
abilities we were left assured.
For his age, I am well pleased with his development and all kudos to the staff at Teddies.
As a result, we have enrolled his younger brother into Teddies too.

It's been a very nice and lovely experience for my son. The three years he spent here has been worth it and he has learnt the first stage of his early years in a very good and comfortable environment and we couldn't have asked for anything better.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.624)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.624) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Bexleyheath 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 13 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 4.917 for Bright Horizons Bexleyheath Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.917
  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 4.707 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Bexleyheath Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 13 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 92 number of registered child places is 18.4. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.4 = 0.707
  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.
