About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 51 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 51 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.4 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

I have been incredibly impressed with the calibre of staff at Brightsparks Day Nursery, Purley. They take such care to cater activities to my daughter's individual needs and I feel confident that her safety and well-being are always at the forefront of her carers' mind. My husband and I are always made to feel extremely welcome whenever we come into the nursery, and we have been made to feel part of the community. We like the fact that so many of the staff know our baby's name and greet her with real affection, even though they may work with a completely different age group.

Recently enjoyed sports days, and her graduation party, I will be so sad to leave this nursery. If baby number 2 is ever thought of I would not hesitate to send them to Brightsparks, cannot recommended them enough.

From the manager to the apprentices theses staff are just one of the many that makes Brightsparks the best nursery. My 2 girls aged 3 and 1 both attend Brightsparks and clearly every time I collect them they're always excited to return! There is one who is one of the best baby nursery teachers. She treats all her babies with TLC and is always cheerful whenever I collect my child. They are always informative and are always talking about the fun day at nursery. I never thought that I would find a caring and educational nursery like Brightsparks. I highly recommend this facility.

I highly recommend Bright Sparks in Purley for it's first class service in wraparound childcare.
I researched and visited all nurseries within 3 miles radius of our home to find a place that will provide good care for my baby. The differences are hugh in terms of staff, facility and what's on offer. My babies has been there since July and very happy. I have summaries what I love about this nursery below:
1. Staff - very friendly, motivated and professional. Strong management, regular team meetings to discuss issues and brain storming for new ideas. Warm morning greetings from everyone even those not working in his room;2. Location and facility - plenty of parking spaces outside and near the premise. Unlike most nurseries, there is nature ventilation which helps to eliminate diseases in winter. Safe garden area for the little ones to explore. Rooms are airy and spacious with designated areas for play, eat and sleep;
3. Food - good variety of foods on offer which alternates weekly. 100% organic for babies and 50% for toddlers;
4. Activities - Staff work very hard to come up with different themes each week to help them learn through play. There are also additional activities from external suppliers such as leaps and bounds;
5. Communication - I love the weekly emails covering aspects of children's activities and planning for the following week. It really helps me to get to know more about what my little is up to in nursery and facilitate any learning at home. The diary book provides clear information on food intake, nappy change and daily activity. The newly introduced 'what have I done at weekend' book is also a nice touch;
6. Daily routine - Structured routine which I really like. My little one now knows to help to clear up when I say tidy up. There are bibs and waterproof trousers for each child which is very thoughtful.
I have recommended this nursery to all my friends and have no hesitation to say it's the best nursery in my area!
The staff here are brilliant, both our boys have been through this nursery and the care they have and currently are having is outstanding!

Our daughter has attended Brightsparks Day Nursery Purley since January 2015 and in that time we have been very happy with the nursery. The mix of children, broad range of activities and attentive staff meant our daughter settled quickly which was a great relief to us. There have also been open days, sports days and charity events which have been a good way for us to meet the staff and become further involved. Communication is also good, with weekly emails sent out to parents regarding forthcoming events and activities and daily reports keeping us further informed. Finally staff continuity is good as well; our daughter has had the same two staff looking after her since starting. All in all very pleased indeed.
My son loves going to nursery, he has progressed so much in the time he has been going. He gets on very well with all the staff and has made so many friends. I know that when I leave him he's is getting the best care and o don't have to worry at all.
