The nursery is well-positioned close to local schools and amenities.

The nursery has an excellent outdoor play space with defined areas for climbing, growing, and creative play in addition to the traditional hard-play...

Review from Katie R (Mother of Child) published on 6 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

For the past 4 years, Bright Kids nursery has been a second home to our child and an absolute godsend to us as parents! To put your trust into other people to help raise and guide your child really is the hardest choice to do but all the staff made it so easy and put our minds at rest. Our child has now reached school age otherwise I'd keep her here! The staff are all friendly, approachable, and professional. The nursery is always clean and hygienic. There is a great range of facilities and resources available for all ages and most of all the children are always happy! And to us, that speaks volumes! You can't put a price on your child's happiness.

Overall Experience
My boys have been coming to Bright Kids for just over 2 years now. They absolutely love it!. They adore the staff who are completely brilliant with them! They've handled sensitive situations with such care and have really helped my sons development. My eldest son was struggling with his emotions, so the nursery put together a plan for him to help him express himself, such as the emotions game, and included the other children so he never felt singled out.

The nursery itself has different activities every day for them to do, quiet areas, a lovely space outside, and lots of different themed activities. Play with their friends, the staff and individually encouraged. The nursery follows the curiosity approach, using things you would find around the house etc for play, which gives a brilliant balance compared to the toys we have at home. The children are always provided with healthy snacks and meals, and the staff always give a handover about their day, what they've done and eaten.

Overall Experience

Two of my children have attended here so far and so will my youngest. Friendly and approachable staff, especially the Deputy Manager. My children loved coming here, they have made lots of friends, there are lots of varied activities for them to do and the staff are so caring. I was always welcomed to call and see how they were getting on.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Bright Kids since she was around 1 year old and now she is sadly approaching the end of her time at nursery. I absolutely love the setting at Bright Kids and it is wonderful to hear about the unusual things she gets up to every day. The curiosity approach seems to suit my daughter and I would highly recommend Bright Kids. I also have a son who attends and I am excited for him to continue his journey as I have seen the benefits first hand. All of the staff are lovely and approachable and I found them to be very welcoming to all of us as a family.

Overall Experience

A wonderful setting for children to learn and socialise. It is lovely to see children leaving their early years settings with big smiles on their faces. This nursery works hard to ensure that children have a positive experience during this stepping stone to school. Well done to all the team for their continued efforts to keep children happy and healthy throughout the pandemic, your hard work does not go unnoticed.

Overall Experience

My daughter is coming to the end of her time at bright kids and it's been an amazing 4 years. She has developed so well over the last 4 years and this is all down to you guys. You treat everyone like family and go above and beyond. Even throughout the difficult times, we have had with covid, the nursery has still been there supporting us families. My daughter will miss everyone especially her keyworkers. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do for future families.

Overall Experience

I could not recommend this nursery enough. My niece has attended now for 2 years and she started out really shy and the amazing friendly staff there really supported her, brought her out of her shell and her confidence is now amazing! The staff are so approachable and friendly and are so good with the kids, nothing is ever too much to ask of them. They also put on lovely fun days which are great!

Very friendly staff. My daughter has always been happy there. She was there for the whole of the pandemic and only a few weeks before it started so it has been a particularly challenging period handled very well by the nursery. They keep us up to date on progress regularly.

Overall Experience

My daughter has settled in very quickly and gets excited each morning when walking into Bright Kids nursery. I believe she is one of if not the youngest baby in attendance and am impressed by how they involve her in all of the activities they do each day. Her independence has improved massively and it's lovely to see how she is getting on through the online pictures. The staff are very friendly and I felt very comfortable leaving my daughter in their care when anxiously returning to work.

Review from Danika (Mother of Child) published on 8 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Bright Kids is an outstanding nursery setting with many different facilities for the children to interact with.
My son enjoys going to nursery as he is very excited every time he has to go and all the children and staff in his class are very friendly by making him feel very welcome.
I have noticed a big change in my son's development as he comes home being able to expand on his counting, alphabet and speech.
He has also adapted to potty training a lot better now thanks to the staff at Bright Kids, so I am very pleased with this nursery setting and will continue to spread the good word by recommending to other friends and family who have children.

Thankyou

Janette Moran
Janette MoranJob Title:Nursery ManagerJoined: 2014

Janette began her early years journey in 1992 as a parent volunteer in a nursery school, which inspired her to build a career supporting children and families. From 1996, she began completing qualifications across childcare and education, later achieving a BA Honours degree in October 2013 and gaining Early Years Teacher Status in February 2014.

Throughout her career, she has worked across both childcare and education, bringing many years of experience alongside the personal insight she has gained from raising four children of her own and now being a proud grandmother to thirteen grandchildren(!)

Janette has always found it incredibly rewarding to work with children and their families, and she enjoys sharing her knowledge and experience with the team at Bright Kids Northfield. She is committed to ensuring every child receives high-quality care and education through a play-based curriculum that supports their development, builds essential life skills and prepares them for the transition to school.

She said: "Our curious and inspiring environment is designed to create moments of awe and wonder, encouraging children to explore, investigate and follow their own interests. Through meaningful experiences and carefully considered opportunities, we support children to become independent, creative and confident thinkers who are willing to challenge themselves and develop new skills."

Kerrie McCaffery
Kerrie McCafferyJob Title:Deputy Nursery ManagerJoined: 2005

Kerrie's journey with Bright Kids Northfield began in June 2005, when she joined the nursery as a student. After qualifying with her Level 3 in Childcare in 2006, she became a permanent member of the team, initially working across both the nursery (and, at the time, out-of-school club).

Over the years, she has progressed through a variety of roles, including Nursery Nurse, Room Leader and Senior Nursery Nurse, before becoming Deputy Nursery Manager in 2014. She has continued to build her knowledge through a wide range of childcare-related qualifications and values every opportunity to develop both personally and professionally.

As a mum of two, Kerrie understands how important it is for families to feel confident that their child is known, cared for and supported as an individual. She loves building strong relationships with children and their families and feels incredibly privileged to watch children grow in confidence throughout their time with us.

She said: "Having been part of Bright Kids Northfield for so many years, I am extremely proud of everything the nursery and team have achieved. It is very special to have grown within the setting myself while helping generations of children and families feel welcomed, supported and part of our community."
