  • Bright Horizons Reigate Holmesdale Road Day Nursery and Preschool, Reigate
Bright Horizons Reigate Holmesdale Road Day Nursery and Preschool provides high-quality care and education for children aged 3 months to 5 years. The nursery itself is easily accessible from the train station and town centre and five minutes from the M25.

The atmosphere is warm, fun and caring and creativity is key at the nursery with many original activities on-going for all age groups. Each child is allocated a key worker to focus on developing the child’s individual learning plan. Children are encouraged to cut their own fruit and snacks to give them confidence.

The garden is a nice and big open space for children to use the varied activities for physical stimulation and to make use of the outdoor space for developing social and communication skills. The rooms are set up with varied learning activities to stimulate learning, with the latest technology being used to develop literacy and numeracy. The early years foundation curriculum is followed throughout the age groups. An enriching Ready for School programme gives every child the opportunity to gain knowledge and confidence to thrive in school and beyond. The nursery also benefits from a dedicated children's kitchen and a parent room.

For over three decades, families have trusted Bright Horizons to deliver early years care and education for their children. With nurseries located across the UK, every setting offers its own local feel whilst sharing the same values and dedication to children’s happiness. The bespoke Bright Horizons curriculum has the wellbeing and confidence of children at its heart. Through fun and play your child will develop their individual interests and passions, and discover a love of learning that will stay with them for life.

My child has been at this nursery since we moved to the area a year ago and we are very happy with the overall experience both my child and we (as parents) have had. The manager is amazing and the nursery is run really well and parents are always kept informed. You can tell the staff are happy there
and really do care for the children which just made me feel at ease when my child was first settling in and getting upset at drop-offs. Would highly recommend this nursery!

The staff have made my son feel so comfortable and happy to come to pre-school. He's eating and socialising so much better than ever. He loves going into preschool every day he's there. The food is brilliant.

Wi definitely appreciate the nursery and its staff who took my son and made him confident and they are still working on making him more social. My children have learned about day-to-day life and many things step-by-step and now I can see the difference in his emotions and social behaviour. He is more
happy to play with other loads, that makes me happy. The best nursery in town.

It's a lovely little nursery and preschool. We were very pleased and our child was happy at this setting and absolutely loved his teachers. It's a shame the outdoor space is quite small, that's the only thing I could think of being less than excellent. Thank you!

Bright Horizons has welcomed my daughter in many ways and helped build her confidence, social skills and independence. My daughter is extremely comfortable being left for the first time since returning to work because of the kind, attentive staff at Bright Horizons. I wouldn't dream of sending her elsewhere.
Bright Horizons Reigate is truly amazing.

The staff here are lovely and very caring. My younger child is in the baby room and is always happy to see her carers. The preschool teachers still asked about my reception-age child, and they love it when the "graduates" come back in to pick up younger siblings. I'm very happy with my choice of nursery
for my children.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending since he was a baby so he has been to the baby room, the toddler room and has recently started preschool. In each room, he was given proper care and attention to develop his motor and communication skills as well as facilitate his learning and emotional and physical growth.
I am immensely satisfied and pleased with the level of care, professionalism and willingness to build a personal bond with each child, that is exhibited by every single carer my son and I interacted with so far.

My four and two-year-olds both attend Bright Horizons Reigate Holmesdale Road and could not be happier. The staff are wonderfully attentive and genuinely care. They have lots of fun but clearly learn too. We feel very lucky to have had such a supportive environment for our children and it'll be very
sad to say goodbye when it's time for school.

Love nursery and all the workers. They are always attentive and understanding. My son loves going and they help us with each stage of his development (potty training etc).
He always comes home happy and tired. Sign of a good day with good people.

Both of my children have gone through the nursery, one from 12 months and one from 2 years, and both have had the most wonderful experience. Staff are kind, really understood and supported our children and you genuinely feel like they care about your children as if they were their own. My eldest left
the pre-school prepared for school which made the transition easy on us all and my youngest will shortly be leaving the pre-school and we know will leave sad to miss her Bright Horizons family, but prepared and excited for school.

Our son has been at the Holmesdale Road, Bright Horizons, since nursery and has moved up to preschool. He settled in quickly and the staff have been really supportive with both learning and our son's care plan. The food menu is extensive, he eats like a king with the variety of food on offer. The nursery
makes the best use of the space, it has, both inside and out and has recently had air conditioning installed to keep the rooms cool.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.811)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.811) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Reigate Holmesdale Road Day Nursery and Preschool 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 47 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 47 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 4.811 for Bright Horizons Reigate Holmesdale Road Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (458 Excellents x 5) + (98 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 560 Ratings = 4.811
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Reigate Holmesdale Road Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 47 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 106 number of registered child places is 21.2, which has been reached with 47 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.

Job Title: Deputy Manager

I started working in childcare in 2013 and I gained my Level 3 NVQ as an Early Years Educator, within 7 years I progressed from a Room leader to fill the role of Deputy Manager. In my childcare career so far, I have gained a Level 2 in Understanding Autism and a Level 2 in Understanding Children and Young People’s Mental Health.


My family and friends all ask what it is like working with children and I always have the same answer- I love it and have such a passion for what I do. It’s so rewarding knowing that I’m setting the foundation and making an impact towards a little person’s future.


I like to think that as a Deputy Manager, I motivate and support my team to the best of my ability and encourage them to excel in all they do.
