You and your child will love the Bright Horizons North Cheam Day Nursery and Preschool, carefully designed to enrich the learning and development of your child, from the age of 3 months to 5 years.

The modern, purpose-built nursery boasts four large rooms and three garden areas that provide excellent opportunities for children of all ages to learn and discover. There is a designated garden for babies where they can explore in a safe space, separate from the older children.

Toddlers also have a garden area with free flow access, where they can take their learning outside should they choose to do so. Pre-schoolers enjoy exploring the outdoor environment in the large main garden area.

At North Cheam nursery, they support babies’ natural curiosity through a range of sensory toys, which help to develop their motor skills, physical development and speech recognition. The Toddler rooms are set up with play and learning resources to help them learn more about the world around them, whilst encouraging independence.

The unique, inspiring Ready for School programme gives every child the opportunity to gain knowledge and confidence to thrive in school and beyond. Pre-schoolers enjoy early reading, writing and mathematics in fun and interesting ways, alongside other subjects such as art and science through the Growing Programmes. Children particularly love the dedicated children’s kitchen where they enjoy cooking activities, supported through the Creative Cooks programme.

The nursery has close parent relationships and holds regular family events throughout the year. The Play and Learning at home programme supports this partnership and recognises the impact parents can have on their child’s education.

The caring staff team would love to meet you and your child, so book your personal tour today.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended North Cheam Bright Horizons since he was 9 months old. He is now 16 months old and thriving.
He absolutely loves the nursery and has settled in very well.
I believe this is down to the wonderful, caring, professional staff in the baby room. As a new mum, I received a lot of support
from the nursery manager and deputy when I went through the process of choosing a nursery last year. They were and still are extremely kind and understanding and I will never forget this.
There is a great selection of toys, different activities on a daily basis and a wide variety of meals.
I am very happy with the excellent care provided to my son and would recommend this nursery to anyone.

A very safe and spacious environment for our children. The day is also well structured and the children have the opportunity to play freely whilst also learning early years skills and understanding routine. An on-site kitchen and freshly prepared food each day adds to the feeling that your children
are at a home-from-home.


The staff are all approachable and this stems from the management of the nursery, who remain open to suggestion and constructive input at all times. The recent refurb has improved the look and feel of what was already an impressive facility.

My daughter has settled in lovely at the nursery. When she first started, she got upset when I left so the nursery workers would give her a cuddle and reassure her that I would be back soon. They eat a variety of different foods at the nursery and my daughter has come home singing lots of different
songs she has learnt and can name various children in her class. The staff have also helped me with potty training and can always answer any questions I have.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We picked Bright Horizons North Cheam to be our daughter's nursery when we were planning to move into the area and didn't know anything about the area or any of the available nurseries. However, both the manager and her staff couldn't have been nicer or friendlier and our daughter settled in very quickly
and absolutely loves her time there. When we started potty training, the nursery was very interactive and helpful, guiding her to get used to the new system and although we still have the occasional accident, my daughter is growing up to be a very self-confident girl. I am very happy and can highly recommend this nursery.

I would highly recommend Bright Horizons North Cheam. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, and quick to give children cuddles if they need them. Most importantly, my children enjoy going - it's often hard to actually get them to leave 'play street' in the evening!

Both of my children attended Bright Horizons North Cheam. My daughter from 9 months until she went to reception school and my son is currently at the nursery.


My son is now 22 months and has been attending the nursery since he was 12 months old. We think that the nursery is excellent and are very

pleased with the setting. The staff are excellent, very caring and welcoming.


The management run the nursery very well and we would recommend this nursery to others.

My son is 3 now and has been attending the nursery since he was 12 months old. We are very pleased with the nursery. The staff are very friendly and approachable and my little one seems to enjoy his time at the nursery very much.


There are additional activities including Goals soccer, MAD academy

etc and a very nice garden. The handover when I pick my son up is also great as they provide all the necessary details including what he has eaten and the activities he enjoyed throughout the day.


My son is in the pre-school group now and learning new things every day. We are very satisfied with the nursery and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little boy has had such a great experience at Bright Horizons North Cheam Day Nursery and so have we. The staff are wonderful, so patient and caring. They have nurtured our little boy in the time he has been there and helped him become more confident and more inquisitive. He is always so happy when
we collect him and has clearly had a great time. If he has a little wobble when we drop him off, the lovely staff are always quick to give him a cuddle and reassure him.
It's been a lovely environment for our little boy and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend North Cheam Day Nursery.
Thank you to all the lovely staff.

Since my daughter started at Bright Horizons pre school she has flourished. Her communication and social skills have come on leaps and bounds. She finds Bright horizons stimulating and loves her teachers and fellow friends. I have no regrets about starting her at this nursery and I feel I can trust

My daughter has been with the nursery from a young age up until now (Nearly 4). She has come along leaps and bounds. All thanks to the fantastic support and care received from Bright Horizons North Cheam.


All the staff are friendly and welcoming. My daughter adores every member of the team. We are

always greeted with a smile and my daughter greeted by name. They have fantastic facilities, endless activities, a healthy menu, and more importantly a fun atmosphere for the children.


A nursery I would definitely be recommending to all my friends and family.

My little boy has attended this nursery since he was 6 months old in the baby room and is now nearly 3 and in the preschool room! He has loved this nursery and all the staff from his first day and always comes home excited to tell me all he has done that day!
I can't fault this nursery for their care
of my little boy - I have never had a moment of worry - his development has been brilliant and the staff are always focusing on areas where he needs help. The kitchen supplies excellent food and he tucks into a variety of freshly prepared healthy food here. I would and have recommended this nursery to all my friends and family looking for a placement . 10/10

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am very happy with how well my daughter has settled in and progressed since joining the nursery. She has some motor skill delays and the staff have been more than happy to include lots of activities she needs to encourage her development.
They always give me a run down of what she has been doing
while at nursery, such as what she has eaten to which toys she has played with. My daughter often doesn't want to leave when I pick her up!
She has recently moved up to toddler one group after starting in the baby room. All the staff are lovely and approachable. It's a nice calm but fun atmosphere. You can tell they work as a team and the children are happy.
They have a lovely garden with lots of fun toys to play with as well as activities to do inside and out. It is kept very clean and the menu is varied.
My little one really enjoys going there and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

My daughter has been at the nursery since October last year and I am so grateful to see how happy she is and the bond she has made with all the staff who are very lovely and caring. She previously moved to preschool and she absolutely loves it! Always telling me about her day with her friends and her
new teachers :) so much so my second daughter is joining the baby room shortly and again has received such amazing support from the staff. The environment is lovely and the rooms always set out nicely for the children!

I speak very highly of North Cheam Nursery, it's a hard choice to leave your child in the care of strangers, but as soon as I looked around the nursery speaking to the staff and meeting them all, the feeling I got was a warm family feel and I just knew this was the nursery for us.
The staff were lovely
when he had his settles they even phoned me to reassure me he was ok. I found great comfort in this, the staff are always very polite with good morning etc. and always have a full handover on the collection. It's never rushed.
It's always clean and tidy and staff are always presentable,

Staff are pleasant and presentable and are very approachable and friendly. My grandchild has been attending the nursery for 5 months now and staff reassured and settled him into nursery really well and he loves coming to nursery. Since starting nursery I have seen a great improvement in his communication
skills and playing alongside his peers. Handovers from staff at pick up time are always in great detail so I know exactly how my grandson's nursery day has been.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.903)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.903) out of 10 for Bright Horizons North Cheam Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 6 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 4.958 for Bright Horizons North Cheam Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (69 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.958
  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 3.945 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons North Cheam Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 87 number of registered child places is 17.4. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.4 = 0.345
  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.
