Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The love, care, attention and interest in every child demonstrated by every member of the dedicated team is what separates Brightlands from its peers. It could be smarter and better resourced by as parents these are much lower priorities for us. Our children love attending every day where they have
fun but are challenged with new activities and experiences constantly. Brightlands children are happy and confident - we couldn't ask for more.

Staff at this nursery are excellent. My child has been going there for two years. I have always felt like my child has been safe and well cared for. They also show appropriate levels of affection which makes the child feel special. Food is healthy and they have a beautiful garden. The staff take them
on visits to the cinema and have treats at Christmas.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I moved my son to this nursery when he was 15 months old. He settled in really quickly and quickly formed good relationships with all staff in the baby unit. The environment in the baby unit was always really calm and relaxed. They spent time with the babies on a one to one basis, in smaller groups
as well as all together. He is now in Toddlers and I am just as happy with the staff, activities and his progress. Highly recommended to all my friends and colleagues.

We have found Brightlands to be a fun, loving and educational place for both our children. The staff are friendly and caring and our children are happy and content here. the outside space is great for all weather play and the children are able to enjoy it throughout the day. their time is structured
well to allow learning and play.

A great nursery that has looked after my 2 children over the last 5 years. Staff really get to know the children, and genuinely care for them. It feels like a close-knit environment with a great variety of activities and lots of time spent outdoors. My boys have been so happy here I would not hesitate
to recommend it to others.

Brightlands Day Nursery is a warm and nurturing environment in which my son has thrived.


He has experienced all four group stages, from "Babies" to "Preschool", and each group has provided the same high standard of childcare.


Brightlands has a wonderful outdoor area that they get out in every

day. My son has a detailed learning journey record; I've had plenty of opportunities to formally look through it, as well as the time to chat with his key workers whenever I needed.


Brightlands provides food that is healthy, varied and, according to my son, delicious!


Activities are varied, interesting and fun; I could see from his progress that my son was exposed to a huge amount of learning through the day.


The staff at Brightlands are so kind and so competent that I found myself able to go to work with no anxiety around leaving my son; I knew he was happy, learning and, most importantly, very safe.


At all stages, my experience has been issue-free; I would highly recommend this nursery.

Both of my children have attended Brightlands Day Nursery and I have been delighted with the care they have received. Many of the staff have been there since my son started six years ago and the continuity is great. Staff are enthusiastic, caring and kind. children get plenty of time outdoors. My children
have always been eager to go to nursery and I have been very happy with our decision to send them there.

I know my child is in safe hands. The staff are so compassionate towards the children. He grows in confidence and understanding everyday. I would recommend this nursery to any parent: those who work full-time or part-time, or home-makers who would like to help their young children socialise before
school. Also very good value for money.

Current Review Score: 7.5 (7.517)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.5 (7.517) out of 10 for Brightlands Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 4.417 for Brightlands Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (6 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.417
  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 3.1 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brightlands Day Nursery is based on 1 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 = 3
    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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.1
  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.
