Bright Horizons is a fantastic nursery and I couldn't recommend it enough. My daughter has been going here since September 2022 and she loves it. She is excited to go in every day and the staff are so friendly and supportive. She has also come on leaps and bounds with her speech and social skills.

My two-year-old daughter started at the nursery in September 2022, having been at another nursery prior to our new home location. The nursery has a welcoming and warm feel which enabled my daughter to settle in well and much sooner than anticipated. She leaves the nursery skipping along and thoroughly
enjoys her time there with staff and friends. Her development has been catered to her needs and is documented well through the online app. We as parents, feel our daughter is safe, looked after and thriving in her surroundings. For working parents, this is a huge relief. Thank you Bright Horizons.

My son has been at this nursery, for five months now and it's been fantastic. They provide excellent meals, regularly keep you updated on the app and regularly keep in touch with parents. We get a handover every day at pick-up. He has just gone up from baby room to toddler room and is really enjoying
himself. They have lots of activities, story time, music time and regular outdoor time. He has really grown in terms of confidence and his development. Love this nursery and what they offer.

Completely amazing. The change in our little one since being in the nursery is great, in just a couple of months she's become so bubbly and involved with everyone. The staff all make you feel happy and safe as a mum and the smiles and chatter from my little one about her day, is just lovely. The app
updates keep you feeling like you are involved. We visited many nurseries before, but the feeling of warmth and caring is second to none.

My daughter started at Bramingham Nursery in September. She loves going there and is happy to be passed over on a morning. The staff are really lovely, welcoming and accommodating and have helped my daughter become a bright, confident and curious toddler. We especially love how they encourage her interests
and adapt to ensure she is doing her best.

Two of my sons have attended Bramingham. One has settled into school nicely thanks to the wonderful staff. My middle boy is currently moving from the toddler class to preschool. The nursery have helped make these transitions smooth and happy. Both my boys have really enjoyed attending and my third son
will also attend soon. The staff are lovely and are always there to help support the children and parents.

Our daughter has been at the nursery for a couple of years now. She absolutely loves going in each day and comes back full of stories of her day. The environment at the nursery is very child friendly. All the staff are very hands on and approachable. It's a well-rounded nursery, so definitely would
recommend it to others.

Our 1-year-old daughter started nursery in September 2022. It took a couple of months to settle her in. The staff were reassuring and supportive to both us and our child. She has a great connection with the key workers and has picked up some nursery rhymes. She loves singing and dancing. Her confidence
has grown so much since joining the nursery. Highly recommend, thanks to the amazing staff.

So far so good, for my son. The staff are lovely and welcoming. Good with updates during the day. My son seems to be getting on well, although he just does one day a week! He loves being at nursery and this is due to the comfort, the key workers give him.

Good nursery. My child has enjoyed going there for the last four years. I have felt assured of my child’s safety whilst there. Really good nursery and preschool, overall. I will miss the staff once my child moves on to primary school.

My child is in pre-school and has been at the nursery since she was 3 months old. The nursery has supported her growth and created a learning environment that is stimulating and supportive.


The staff are warm and friendly and passionate about the wellbeing of the children they help to educate and

grow as independent individuals.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started here full time in March - the staff have been brilliant - supporting nap schedule as best as possible to support night time sleep (he started full time at 12 months old). The food served is varied, communication from the nursery is good and the app is very helpful for seeing what he has
been eating etc. And nappy changes etc. There's a good outdoor space in the shade, and varied activities.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It was very difficult to find a perfect nursery for my son but Bright Horizon Bramingham branch made it so easy for me to choose them.
They didn’t force me to enroll my child with them instead they asked me to take my time.
I still remember at the beginning I was very worried about my son settling
into a Nursury as he had never been no where without me. The Bramingham branch not only made the transition period so smooth and easy for us but also offered us extra settling in sessions to make sure that my son is ready to start his new journey at the nursery. The journey is not restricted to just a child care but educating them, teaching them all good things, make them understand the power of sharing and caring. The nursery is like a second home for my son now and he loves it there. I can never thank enough the staff at the nursery to making my son feel like home.

My kids started this nursery in January 2022, and the staff are fantastic. They genuinely take time to provide daily feedback, and the app is a great tool to stay up to date. I’ve seen positive progress with my children since they started, and they are so happy.

My daughter attends this nursery two days a week. She absolutely loves it. The staff are kind and helpful. They identified when my child wasn't being stimulated enough and rectified the situation. I am updated with what she has eaten and not eaten. I love the app which means I can see what she is up
to throughout the day. My girlie cannot wait to go on a nursery day. It is a safe, fun and caring learning environment.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.772)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.772) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Bramingham 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 22 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 4.951 for Bright Horizons Bramingham Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (252 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 263 Ratings = 4.951
  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 4.821 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Bramingham Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 22 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 134 number of registered child places is 26.8. 22 Positive Reviews ÷ 26.8 = 0.821
  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.
