Review from Lisa G (Mother of Child) published on 25 May 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are very happy with the provision that our daughter receives at Bright Horizons Springfields. She is always happy to go and the staff are warm and welcoming on arrival. At pickup they always say what kind of a day she has had and put a written form in her bag with more details about her day.
They
all know her personality well and I feel she gets lots of attention throughout the day. Her development is coming along in leaps and bounds and was recognised by staff: she was moved up a group ahead of time as they felt she would benefit from being in the next group up. Good to know the staff are attentive and proactive with regard to her development.

Our children absolutely love coming to this nursery. All the staff make every effort to know your child regardless of which room they are in and the whole team are so helpful. We are kept informed and in the loop at all times.
We recently received some excellent support in preparing our daughter for
school in September and can see how they are doing that in preschool each day too.
The children learn so much and are genuinely excited when it’s a nursery day. Would recommend without a shadow of a doubt. I knew from the moment I stepped into this nursery 4 years ago that this was the nursery for us.

Our daughter loves attending Bright Horizons Springfields Day Nursery and Preschool and has received exceptional care throughout her time there, from the baby room to preschool. She is always happy and loves the staff. The staff continually do their upmost to ensure all children are engaged and experience
so many learning opportunities each day. I would highly recommend to other parents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending this nursery since 8 months of age in the baby room and has moved all the way through into preschool having now turned 3. I’ve had to change booking patterns, due to changes at work, which have always been happily accommodated, and although my daughter had a short break
due to Covid in 2020 she has spent a period of time in each of the nursery rooms and appears to have thoroughly enjoyed them all. She seems to learn something new each day and come home with snippets of information to share with the family. Her confidence and social skills are fantastic from being in a nursery setting for a period of time and I feel like they have become an extended family for my little girl especially now I’m working full-time. She has learnt songs, routines, days, months, weather, seasons and is now learning about writing. She has a pretend friend and the staff are wonderful for including her in activities. I can’t thank or recommend this nursery enough.

There are no words to express how happy we are with Springfields Day Nursery. My daughter has been attending now for about a year and a half and I can honestly say it was the best decision we ever made sending her there! EVERY member of staff is so attentive and the care they provide is second to none.
Working in education, I found it difficult walking in nurseries as a parent rather than a teacher but that changed when I walked into Springfields! I knew my daughter would thrive there in every aspect of her development and I’ve never been disappointed. There’s a reason Springfields is an outstanding nursery and I’m not looking forward to the day she has to leave!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you do! You’re all worth your weight in gold!

Our daughter has been at the nursery since she was 10 months old. She has settled in so well and has formed lovely bonds with the nursery nurses there. She is happy, safe and secure there. It is a lovely environment that encourages the children to flourish and develop, our daughter's skills and communication
are well ahead of normal. The children have a variety of activities to do each day too. I would happily recommend this nursery to anyone I know.

My daughter loves nursery. The staff know her well. They encourage home learning and ask what we are doing so they can reinforce this at home. Everyone is really friendly and always happy to help.

Both of our children have bee into Springfields and both have loved it. The children come home happy every time we pick them up. The balance of learning/play/fun/relationships is very good. The nursery/pre-school is super organised. I have considered the costs to be high but you get what you pay for!
My daughter will leave with friends and set-up just nicely for school #greatstaff#energy#goodkids#staff

My daughter is feeling very good here. She is learning lots of things. In the first month was crying when she was there but now she is very good. She loves it. She is eating her lunch which is healthy, exactly like you want. She has got friends here and the staff is brilliant, caring and lovely.

I cannot recommend this nursery enough. My daughter's progress across all the 7 areas of the EYFS has been nothing short of phenomenal. The area I am most astounded at is her communication and language. Staff are friendly and couldn't have done any more for myself or my daughter or to make either of
us feel more welcome.
The outdoor space is fantastic and is definitely one of my daughter's favourite things.
Both my daughter's 2 key workers during her time here have developed an incredibly warm and knowledgeable relationship that has really facilitated both my daughter's education and happiness levels amazingly.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.769)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.769) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Springfields Day Nursery and Preschool 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 6 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 4.917 for Bright Horizons Springfields Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (67 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.917
  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 3.852 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Springfields Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 119 number of registered child places is 23.8. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.8 = 0.252
  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.
