My child seems to enjoy coming to the nursery and has made a nice little group of friends. The staff are all lovely and my child always speaks highly of them. Would be great to get some more real-time updates as I like to discuss what’s happened in the day on the way home.

Special mention to the staff member in Pre-School 1 for going the extra mile with my son and his development with speech. Works very closely with the external speech therapist and genuinely does care about his development. For this we thank you.

This is an amazing nursery! My daughter has adapted so well and is clear that she enjoys every single day there. I feel that they do great things with the kids and help them learn new skills or improve their existing ones. I am so happy for my choice.

The staff in her room are really good at updating the app, so I know what she has eaten that day and always update me on pick up about what she has done throughout the day.
It's wonderful to hear that your daughter enjoys her time at nursery and has made significant progress since starting. Thank you for sharing your positive experience.

Our daughter joined Swanscombe Bright Horizons just as she turned one and has been there for nearly a year now. The staff were so friendly and welcoming from the very beginning. They all take the time to get to know the children, even if they aren’t assigned to their room. There is a really homely feeling to the nursery. They do lots of messy play and encourage the children to try new things but also comfort them if they aren’t sure. The food is varied, which is great for them to explore new tastes. The staff give feedback on how your little one's day has been at the end of the day, and there is an app where the staff upload what your child has eaten/nappy changes/nap times, etc which, is really useful. We couldn’t recommend this nursery enough. Our little one has thrived since she joined, and It has made returning to work much easier knowing she comes out of the nursery happy every day!

My experience at Bright Horizons has mostly been positive and appreciated by my child too. They excellently support children with special needs, like mine with social and communication challenges, by effectively implementing therapist-recommended plans. My child very much enjoys the company of the staff, especially their keyworker. The nursery's layout, especially its outdoor spaces, encourages healthy exploration. Extra activities, like Mother's Day celebrations, add to their service, creating cherished memories. The convenience of onsite parking is useful, though it can be crowded at peak times. Receiving items my child has helped create, like vegetables, is delightful, offering insight into their activities. Improvements are needed in staff communication, especially during handovers, as information about my child's day is often lacking. The management is always helpful, enhancing the nursery's welcoming atmosphere. Their approach to catering to picky eaters, with a set menu and alternative commendable.

My son started in May 2023 and has really enjoyed his time at the nursery so far. He’s settled in so well and walks into the room to his key person without any tears. He’s developed lovely relationships with the staff in baby care 2. The staff are always caring and let me know how he’s been. The app is fantastic, lots of information on how he’s eaten and slept throughout the day. The menu is varied and my son loves the meals provided. Really pleased with our choice of nursery so far.

My little girl has been at Bright Horizons Swanscombe since 2021. She has special educational needs and has interaction and communication difficulties. The nursery, particularly the nursery manager and SENCO, have been so supportive of her. Everything from adjustments to her everyday care - to make her comfortable, happy and encouraged to try new things and help her to interact with others - to apply for an EHCP, setting up a specialist teacher who supports her, implementing Speech and Language techniques, advice on schooling, all to help her progression. They have taken the time to understand her and support her and us as parents. I also love that every room has its own outside space so that your child can explore, as my little girl loves being outside! Please bear in mind if you have a picky eater that Bright Horizons has a set food menu, but the nursery do try to offer some alternatives. I am very thankful for the team’s support at Bright Horizons.

Really pleased with the nursery so far, my 9 month old daughter has just started. The manager and the team in baby care have made her feel so welcome and she is settling so quickly. I was very nervous about her starting at 9 months, but the team have posted lots of pictures of her having a great time which has reassured me. Thank you so much.

Overall, I cannot recommend the nursery more, I was an anxious first-time mummy putting my trust in the team at Bright Horizons Swanscombe and it paid off. My daughter has learnt so much since starting at the nursery and the family app allows me to have so much involvement in her learning and development.

My granddaughter has just started at this nursery I had to collect her on her 1st week as she was unwell. I must say what a lovely friendly nursery from the moment I arrived. All staff were very welcoming and genuinely concerned about the welfare of the little one. She seems very happy to be there and is thriving. I would definitely recommend this nursery it is a lovely environment with plentiful outside space for the little ones to enjoy.
I am profoundly in awe of how the nursery has developed over the course of time. An expanded and assorted pool of personnel has definitely contributed to this progress. The meticulousness and improved consideration to detail have been quite remarkable for both of my children.

From the moment my baby was registered at the nursery they have been amazing - from keeping in touch calls/emails to arranging settle-in sessions, communication has been amazing. We were invited to attend events such as Mother’s Day craft afternoon even though my baby hadn’t started yet. As a...
My daughter has a dairy allergy which fills me with dread, but the nursery has bent over backwards to ensure her needs are met. Amazing!

I have been involved in the early years sector since 2012, and my journey with Bright Horizons began in 2017. I started my career as a nursery nurse in a sizable nursery back in 2012 and have steadily progressed to become a Nursery Manager. Along the way, I have attained a level 3 diploma in childcare and further education, as well as a level 3 diploma in leadership and management. I am also qualified as a SENDCO, and I am currently pursuing my level 5 diploma in business management.
My role as a Nursery Manager is something I am truly passionate about. My goal is to provide top-notch care and education, creating an inclusive, engaging, and exciting environment where all children can learn and thrive.

Hi, my name is Aynsley and I am the Nursery Manager.
Since 2015, I have been actively involved in the early years sector, and my journey in this field has been truly fulfilling. Prior to this, I spent six years working in a SEND department, where I had the privilege of working closely with children. Throughout my career, I have consistently sought to enhance my skills and knowledge to better serve the children in my care.
I am proud to hold a level 3 diploma in children's learning and development, as well as a level 3 diploma in leadership and management. These qualifications have been instrumental in shaping my professional growth and allowing me to take on greater responsibilities.
My progression within Bright Horizons has been significant, having started as a bank staff member and now proudly serving as the Deputy Nursery Manager. It's been an incredible journey, and I'm grateful for the opportunities that have come my way.
As the Deputy Nursery Manager, I am deeply passionate about my role and the impact I can make on the lives of children and their families. My primary focus is to provide high-quality childcare with enriching environments that foster learning and growth. One of the ways I achieve this is by mentoring and supporting our dedicated staff, helping them develop their own skills and expertise.
Being a good role model to others is also important to me. I believe that leading by example is a powerful way to inspire positive change and encourage the delivery of high-quality care across the nursery.
I wake up every day with a sense of purpose and dedication to making a difference in the lives of the children we care for. It is a privilege to contribute to their early years' development and create a nurturing space where they can flourish. I am excited about the journey ahead and the continued opportunities to learn, grow, and positively impact the lives of those in my care.
