Located in the heart of Hove, Bright Horizons Wish Park Hove Day Nursery and Preschool welcomes and supports children aged 6 months to 5 years. Conveniently situated for both local families and commuters, the nursery is a short walk from Portslade and Aldrington train stations, offering easy access to Brighton City Centre. The nursery's gated garden opens directly onto Wish Park, and its proximity to the local beach provides additional opportunities for outdoor adventures.
The nursery accommodates children in three primary rooms, specifically designed for babies, Two’s, and Pre-schoolers. Separate creative rooms for the Two’s and Pre-schoolers further enhance their learning experiences. The Two’s creative room features a captivating marine fish tank, showcasing creatures like Nemo, Dory, and a starfish with an uncanny resemblance to an octopus.
Outdoor spaces are thoughtfully designed to inspire and engage. Babies and Two’s enjoy access to their own sensory room, while the Summer House serves as an innovative outdoor classroom for pre-schoolers. The garden includes safe, dedicated areas for babies to explore, featuring a playhouse, storytelling corner, sand and water play, and toys that encourage developmental growth.
The garden also offers a variety of activities aimed at fostering creativity and physical development, including a mud kitchen, sand and water play, climbing equipment, and a playhouse. A hands-on growing area introduces children to planting and caring for fruits and vegetables, encouraging a connection with nature and an appreciation for healthy eating. These experiences not only provide entertainment but also teach valuable life skills.

My little girl enjoys every time in the Bright Horizons Wish Park Nursery. Amazing personal, family atmosphere, and professionally. My child feels comfortable and confident, developing new skills, and sometimes doesn't want to leave a nursery. I appreciate all that you are doing for our kids to make them so happy every time! Happy that I found this nursery and feel that it is our place.

We have been extremely happy with the nursery setting for our child. The key workers have been wonderful and helped our child with incredible support to gain confidence and build abilities to thrive in the nursery, build friendships and the ability to play brilliantly with peers and progress brilliantly through developmental milestones. We have enjoyed the open days and family days meeting other parents and seeing the children interact together as they would on their normal days. Would very much recommend.

Thrilled with our choice of Bright Horizons at Wish Park. Our son is 3 and this is the first time he has been to nursery full time so we were worried about how he would settle in but after a few weeks of some tears because he ‘missed us’ he now tells us constantly that he ‘loves school’ and ‘school is fun’ and often asks if he has ‘school today’ on the weekend! It makes us so happy to know that he is enjoying this nursery this much and it’s a credit to the management and staff here for making him feel welcome and helping him settle so quickly! Thank you all!
We're thrilled to hear about your son's positive experience at Bright Horizons at Wish Park! We look forward to continuing to support his growth and development!

The nursery has excelled in catering to her dietary needs and handling her allergy with utmost care. Moreover, when she encountered an accident outside of the nursery, I was impressed by how promptly and effectively the staff modified her environment, ensuring her continued participation and comfort throughout the day. I instantly felt positive during our first visit, and I'm thrilled with my decision to choose this nursery.
We're delighted to hear about your daughter's positive experience at our nursery! It's wonderful to know that she has blossomed in confidence and learning. Thank you for your five-star review.
I've had three kids in Nursery over the years, in South East London and now in Brighton and I can honestly say this is the nicest nursery any of them have ever been to.

I've had three kids in Nursery over the years, in South East London and now in Brighton and I can honestly say this is the nicest nursery any of them have ever been to. My son is really happy going in (he was often a bit sad going into his old nursery), the updates on the Family app are regular and nice to see, and the staff are all lovely, friendly, and super engaged with the kids. I would recommend it!

Since moving my child from another nursery I can't find fault with this nursery at all. My Son has made lots of new friends, children and staff included and is always happy and chatting about what happened during his day. The nursery is very clean and welcoming with events included for parents. They always keep you up to date through the app with goings-on with pictures and comments about activities concerning your child. Would totally recommend this nursery for prospective parents.
Thank you for your positive feedback! We're delighted to hear that your child has settled in well and is enjoying their time at our nursery. We're grateful for your recommendation and look forward to continuing to provide a nurturing and enriching experience for your child.

Wish Park is a great nursery, our daughter loves it and can’t wait to get there each day! The food supplied is healthy and nutritious. The staff are attentive and always quick to let us know what is going on.

Both of our children (ages 4 and 1) have been attending Bright Horizons Wish Park. Now with a steady team in place after the change of management (twice) and staff shortages a while back, we are overall quite satisfied with the nursery. The reason for the 4 stars is mainly because of the lack of outdoor trips. Our eldest has been with the nursery from the age of 10 months until school and did approximately 8/9 trips in that whole period. Our almost 2-year-old has been with the nursery for 15 months now and has only done 1 trip out with the nursery with no other trips in sight. This is something the nursery hasn’t been great with in comparison to some of the other nurseries that do trips to the park daily. We would really like to see an improvement on this. The other reason is due to the lack of updates on the app, One time I didn’t receive a personal update for 2 weeks. The nursery used to be better at this.
Hello, thank you so much for your positive feedback!
We've only been sending our son for a few months, but he seems really happy at Wish Park. He smiles when he goes in and comes out happy too, which is all we can ask for!

The staff are very friendly and seem to care lots. Our son always seems happy and delighted whenever he sees a video or picture on the app. He also eats every single thing he is given so the food must be delicious!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience with the team.

Instantly felt at ease when we came in for a viewing! When different people were picking my daughter up at the door, I was scared at first because I hadn’t met anyone other than two who were at the viewing, but my she seemed to go at ease and seems to be comfortable with everyone. This led me to feel more comfortable at drop off. I can’t explain how comfortable I really am with leaving her at nursery now. I went from checking the app every 5 mins to just around feeding time to make sure she’s eaten and any day updates. I can’t thank you all enough! Everyone that’s around her helping her develop each day. The updates I get when I pick her up are great, the constant updates, pics and videos on the app are fantastic! I was overwhelmed and emotional when she was counting to 5! She might not know what she’s saying half the time but I can only see progress since she started nursery! Her key worker has been amazing! Honestly everyone around her deserves a big shout out!
My son loves it here. The staff are all great and he has lots of play and learning each time he comes! The environment is clean and food is tailored to each child’s needs. I would recommend the nursery to other parents looking for their child.

Both my children (4 and 1 yr old) have been going to Bright Horizons Wish Park Hove nursery since they were 9 months old and they absolutely love it. The team really are fabulous. Extremely caring, friendly and have a very personable approach.

I can highly recommend Bright Horizons Wish Park Hove Day Nursery and Preschool. Our son joined at 9 months old and our initial worry of leaving our baby at nursery settled very quickly. All of the staff members are amazing, they are each truly above what we hoped for. The progression in our son's confidence, speech and character has us in awe most days and we are truly grateful to the nursery staff for their assistance in this. Our son loves it here (especially the garden!) and as his parents, we are very happy.
Hello, thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. It is wonderful to hear that your son is thriving in our nursery.
After sending our first child here, it was an obvious choice for our second child. They have been at the nursery for 7 months now and is very happy there. The facilities are excellent, the garden especially, and all of the staff take that little bit of extra care. We would thoroughly recommend.
