Such a great nursery. My little boy loves going and is always so happy to show us all his arts and crafts when he comes home.
Great daily updates from the team and so many activities for the children.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
One particular room leader for us shone outstandingly at Tudor House and assisted and supported us through the entire starting preschool journey. Reassured, updated and guided us always... I felt at ease leaving my children, and I was always satisfied and pleased with pick-up because I was told all
about their days, which makes such a difference when you've been away from them all day wondering.
The online app was kept updated with gorgeous photos and clips of the activities the children got up to. I will never forget her; clear and genuine passion and talent for looking after and nurturing children.

The staff at Bright Horizons Tudor House Burgess Hill Day Nursery and Preschool are really fantastic. They have made my boys very welcome and provide a warm, fun and nurturing environment. I feel like they get the little quirks of our boys and encourage their development positively, from the baby group
to the pre-school group, and adapt along the way. I would recommend this nursery, especially for people who would like more structure for the pre-school year.

Tudor House is a very nurturing place with staff who take good care of my child. He has been at Tudor House for a few months and is absolutely loving his time there as well as thriving and learning new things every day. The staff and management are very welcoming, helpful and are always there to answer
any questions or queries. I highly recommend Tudor House!

This nursery has been taken over twice in a year. The rooms are constantly shutting due to staff shortages. They've now changed the terms so that you only get a refund if this happens to your child more than 3 times in a month. It was a great nursery when my daughter started in 2018 but has rapidly
gone downhill under new management. They have put up fees twice in the last few months despite the room closures and also changed the requirements for the minimum attendance of days 8 months after my son started with only 6 weeks warning, no apology and no flexibility meaning we have had to find my little boy alternative childcare. Management literally did not care that we are now having to resettle him. Greedy and business model orientated management. Not the nurturing nursery it once was.

Review from Charlotte B (Mother of Child) published on 26 April 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Due to continual room closures and inconsistency of care due to high staff turnover, I would not recommend this as an early years setting (from 2022). In the last month my daughter's room "Lavenders" has been closed 3 times! There are constant staff changes and no real consistency. The other rooms are
also frequently closing - meaning if you have two children of different ages, good luck trying to keep your job or career going!
There doesn't seem to be a near-term solution other than seeking cover from agencies or bank staff. Or rotating which rooms they keep open. This isn't acceptable. Management has changed twice in 1 year and they don't seem to have a staff retention plan. Please do seek an alternative setting!

This nursery is fantastic. Having had my eldest at a different nursery, this one is streets ahead. The staff are friendly and know the children inside out and staff turnover seems to be very low, unlike other nurseries we have experienced. Every day they do a really wide range of activities and the
garden is well equipped and inviting. My 3-year-old already knows her numbers to 20 and a lot of the phonics sounds due to the fun games and crafts they do every day.

A fantastic environment for our twin boys. The care, support, friendly, welcoming atmosphere of this nursery is absolutely fantastic. Our boys are very happy there and that says it all. Their learning opportunities are also fantastic and totally tailored to the group. The support and feedback we get
as parents is exactly what we would want and can't ask for anything more.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has attended this nursery group since he was 11 months old. He has loved it from day one. The staff are so caring and professional and always putting the children first. The activities on offer combine education with fun so every day he comes home having learnt something new. The daily catchup
sheet and use of Tapestry mean as parents we still feel connected to him during his days at nursery. I cannot express enough how amazing Tudor House Montessori Nursery is and everyone who works there. The experience available to our child is exceptional and he couldn't be in better hands. Saying goodbye to your child is hard but knowing he is so happy at nursery makes it easier.

My children both moved from another nursery but both have settled tremendously, thanks to the wonderful nursery staff. They both have made friends with other children and carers and are learning so much every day. We can't thank them enough or recommend them highly enough!!

My sons have been going to Tudor House Montessori Nursery since 2013. I couldn't be more happier with the choice I made. The ladies who all work here are amazing at their jobs and my sons have always been happy and willing to go to the nursery. The nursery itself is clean, modern and has a wonderful
outside area for children of all ages. I have recommended Tudor House Montessori Nursery previously to friends who are also so happy and chose to sign their children to this nursery. 10/10 for everything.

My son has been going to Tudor House since he was 8 months old. He is now nearly 4 and thriving. He loves his time at nursery and is coming on in leaps and bounds. All the staff are amazing and have a great bond/relationship with him. They have helped me in many ways with good advice and kept my son's
routine. I love the nursery and can't wait for my daughter to start her journey at Tudor House in November.

Fantastic nursery. Great staff who are always so welcoming and helpful. My children love going and have developed in confidence considerably. We've made some lovely friendships and I've been really impressed with the preparation they have done with phonics and number work to get my daughter ready for
primary school.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.922)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.922) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Tudor House Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.922 for Bright Horizons Tudor House Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (166 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.922
  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 Tudor House Nursery is based on 15 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 65 number of registered child places is 13, which has been reached with 15 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.
