Bright Stars Day Nursery is a privately run day nursery based in Leatherhead caring for children aged 3 months to 5 years, 52 weeks a year.
There are four different rooms within the setting. There is a calm and cosy baby room where babies can learn, explore and discover the world through sensory based play. The exciting and fast paced pre toddler room where children are encouraged to express themselves and learn through their play, the brand new cabin which caters for older toddlers. The bright and inviting Preschool room is where children are encouraged to take steps towards independence and school readiness whilst still enjoying their learning-based play. Each of these rooms have direct access to their own fully equipped gardens where children have constant free flow access to extend their learning in the outdoor environment.
At Bright Stars Day Nursery, the team work in partnership with parents to ensure that children develop socially, intellectually, culturally, physically and emotionally in a caring and secure environment. Staff encourage parents' contribution to their child's learning and work closely with them to gather information about their child's learning at home.

About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 6 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 18 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

My daughter has been at the nursery since she was 1 year old and has been there for just over 2 years. She has been through the Baby and Toddler rooms, and is now in the Pre-school room. She loves it there. They are given ample opportunity to play and learn in a diverse range of activities. The outside space is compact but full of things to do and the children are given loads of time to play outside, which is great. The staff are professional, friendly and helpful and have a great rapport with the children.
It is a comfortable and inviting environment with good outside space for the children to explore and play. More importantly,...
It is a comfortable and inviting environment with good outside space for the children to explore and play. More importantly, the boys feel safe at the nursery and don't hesitate to approach the staff if necessary. The boys are assigned key workers who always provide a detailed daily review on pick up.

The baby room feels very home from home and the staff are wonderful - they certainly made it as easy as possible to leave her for the first time. She has recently moved up to the toddler room and loves the additional space inside and outside and the range of toys (sometimes it is difficult to get her to leave!). The range of activities is great (and saves me having to deal with the mess at home) - she regularly comes home with paintings, baking, new favourite books. Bright Stars offer a good range of outings to the local library or parks and activities that parents can get involved in. The food seems to be a good variety and I love the fact that they get outside in the fresh air every day.
I can not thank the staff enough at Bright Stars with the settling in of my baby girl even from visiting whilst I was still pregnant to now they have been impeccable, so friendly, comforting, accommodating and professional nothing is ever too much trouble which made my little one settle in with...
