  • Bright Kids Day Nursery Leyton, London
Bright Kids Day Nursery has been established since 2001 and is based in the heart of the local community, offering tailored educational programmes that support each child’s development through play-based learning.

Baby rooms are spacious, airy, and designed to nurture early curiosity. Experienced practitioners provide sensory experiences like treasure baskets and messy play. Each room is air-conditioned for comfort, with a 1:3 staff ratio and extra support always available.

The toddler rooms, for children aged 18 months to rising 3s, is full of eager young minds exploring new ideas individually and in groups. Using the Key Worker system, activities are planned around children’s interests, introducing themes such as small world play and animals. The staff ratio here is 1:5.

Pre-school rooms offer structured learning to prepare children for school readiness. Activities build on children’s knowledge and extend to topics like the solar system and life cycles of butterflies and chicks. These are enriched through outdoor play and trips to local parks, supermarkets, and museums. With a 1:8 ratio, children are encouraged to be independent, and those needing extra support have dedicated staff and guidance from the nursery SEND Co-Ordinator, who works closely with families and the local authority.

Review from Ecaterina G (Mother of Child) published on 22 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little one has been going to this nursery since he was 1 year old, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the experience. The staff are absolutely amazing they're caring, patient, and truly dedicated to each child's well-being and development. It's clear how much they love what they do.
My child
has grown so much in confidence and skills since starting here, and he's always excited to go in the morning. The communication with parents is great too , I always feel informed and involved. I'm so grateful to have found such a warm, nurturing environment where my child is happy and thriving. Highly recommend!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has loved coming to bright kids over the last 8 months, the practitioners are so friendly and welcoming and she literally runs into their arms every morning with a big smile on her face. She started when she was 11 months old and the staff were so lovely and understanding and helped her
settle really well. Sadly we're moving out of the area but otherwise would have stayed at bright kids for as long as possible!

Thank you for your kind review. We will miss her. All the best with the move.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son joined this private nursery, went there for one year. The staff are wonderful, they helped my son settle in as swiftly as possible. I would recommend this to anyone. The nursery is very flexible with the 15-hour funded times to drop the child off to the nursery.
Reply from Bel Oomerjee, Owner at Bright Kids Day Nursery Leyton
Hi, thank you for your wonderful review, we're glad that your child has settled in the nursery.

Review from Shaunie M (Mother of Child) published on 20 August 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter loves going to nursery. I know this by the way she talks about her day.
All the staff are always so enthusiastic and you can tell they really care about the children they care for.
I love the app which has all the information on my child's day, photos of her playing with her friends or
the activities the staff have set up.
I very much enjoy the staff-parent interactions. The events they organise and I'm looking forward to attending more.
I would highly recommend this nursery and I'm so glad I picked it for my daughter. She is thriving and becoming so much more independent.
I feel comfortable to go in and speak to the key workers and the class staff with any queries or support I might need!
The only downfall is the outdoor space the nursery has however they make up by taking the children on local trips to the library/park.
We are really grateful for the love and care they have provided our daughter.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.492)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.492) out of 10 for Bright Kids Day Nursery Leyton is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 5 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 4.800 for Bright Kids Day Nursery Leyton is calculated as follows: ( (49 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.8
  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 3.692 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Kids Day Nursery Leyton is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 130 number of registered child places is 26. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 26 = 0.192
  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.
