AN INSPIRING AND NURTURING NURSERY IN CAMBRIDGE

Discover the modern, purpose-built Cambridge Science Park Day Nursery and Preschool, designed to inspire your child and support their development, from the age of 3 months to 5 years.
With five spacious, open-plan rooms your child will have plenty of space to explore, with age-tailored resources and imaginative learning environments. Each room has free-flow access to its own garden and they also have a communal courtyard with a large built-in sandpit where the children are able to feel the sand between their toes and imagine they’re exploring the seaside.

The Team pride themselves on providing a safe, exciting and enjoyable nursery where children thrive as they learn. They provide inspirational and engaging learning experiences using the innovative and well-established Boogie Mites and the unique Growing Enhancement programmes. These ‘Growing’ programmes give your child the inspiration and knowledge to navigate subjects such as mathematics, art, reading and writing. They also encourage vocational subjects such as art, gardening and cooking, helping to lay the foundations for future academic and creative achievements. The qualified teacher, who runs the preschool room, further supports the children with getting ready for school.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children attended this nursery from when they were 8 months old up to when they began school they were always very well cared for. My daughter has allergies and eczema and her needs were always met.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was set out with activities for when my son walked in. My son loves his keyworker and the room.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I always felt happy and comfortable leaving my daughter at Bright Horizons. The staff always engaged with her on arrival and made the handover smooth (despite tears sometimes). My daughter was always playing happily when I arrived to collect her and often talked about her days activities on the way
home. Staff always gave me a detailed description of the day and my daughter's behaviour.

Review from A B (Father of Child) published on 24 May 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Just want to say a massive thank you to all of the nursery team from room level up to management for their fantastic work at the nursery. My child has been in the setting now for 2 years and the quality of the care and education they have received has been phenomenal. There is clear commitment from
my childs key person and support/advice is given from all levels.
There has been a massive change to the nursery since management changed from August 2014 - well done to the manager and her team, their honest open approach has made me recommend the nursery to fellow colleagues at my workplace.

Review from M T (Mother of Child) published on 19 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son attended this nursery for just over 2 months and only left due to changes in my employment (which was a very difficult decision) due to him being so settled. Throughout this time I have been more than happy with all aspects of his care at the nursery. In particular the relationship he built with
his key worker. It was tough returning to work and leaving my son, but my experience here gave me great confidence that he was in safe hands.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fantastic service provided by all levels within this nursery provision. Lovely airy and very inviting setting that has recently invested in lots of new resources and equipment. Every aspect of the setting is of the highest standard, from observations from my daughter's key person, to the administrator
when dealing with financial queries. Thank you to everyone involved, you are all truly amazing.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.331)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.331) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Cambridge Science Park 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 11 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 4.826 for Bright Horizons Cambridge Science Park Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (110 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.826
  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 4.505 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Cambridge Science Park Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 11 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 109 number of registered child places is 21.8. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.8 = 0.505
  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.

Rebecca

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2019

I have worked within the childcare industry since 2009 and have immensely enjoyed every minute of it! I joined our Bright Horizons family in 2012, where I have continued to grow and develop within the company and gained my NVQ Level 3 qualification.


I have enjoyed the experience with all ages, but even more so with the younger children due to being a room leader in a baby room for 7 years. My passion is to thrive in exceptional parent and partnership, maintaining a good relationship with all parents and potential clients to ensure parents know they can approach me when necessary. I have a son who makes me proud every single day as he grows and develops with all the new skills he's learning. I am a bubbly, outgoing character who loves animals, especially horses, as I was brought up around them. This gives me a great excuse to explore the countryside with my family at the weekends. My son keeps me busy and enjoys visiting the zoo and farms in our spare time, too!
