I absolutely love this nursery and all the staff involved. Two of my children have attended since they were 2 years old and I couldn't fault a single thing about their care. The staff are friendly and attentive, they offer varied and healthy meals and my children have loved them. I recommend to everyone,
they are brilliant

Overall, my high expectations of this nursery has not been let down. I find my son has settled very well and always seems to enter and leave the nursery with a smile on his face. I find the staff very friendly and very thorough. They always keep me updated with how my son has got on throughout the day
and update the app with what he's ate etc and photos. I am so pleased with the service I am receiving and my son is also very comfortable.

I love how my son has settled into the preschool so quickly. We were concerned how he would cope being away from home after the pandemic lockdowns. It's great that the team are sensitive to this topic, ensuring we are always updated on how he is doing.

The girls in this nursery are wonderful. My daughter attends this bright, positive, welcoming nursery. I leave my daughter in the care of these girls, while I go to work and I do that with 100% confidence, that they genuinely love and care for every single child in their setting. My son also attended
here until recently and they both thrive in this environment. The care is second to none by all, even the lovely chef! I highly recommend this nursery.

My wife and I are very happy with the level of care that our son receives from the wonderful team headed by three members of staff in particular. We love the daily updates of our son's time at nursery on the app and seeing pictures of him. Our son loves nursery and has come on leaps and bounds in his
development, thanks to the team. We love to see he enjoys himself, eats well, gets his sleeps and generally loves coming to nursery. We are also very grateful for the advice we are given, to coordinate our efforts with nursery.

All the staff work hard to build and maintain their relationship with my daughter and other children. Everyone at the nursery communicates any information promptly and effectively. I have always felt my daughter is receiving the best quality of care at this nursery and have recommended it to others
when given the opportunity.

My son has been doing two settling in sessions a week for the past few months, before starting in May. All the staff have been so welcoming and accommodating and my son seems to have settled in very well. I feel very comfortable about him attending for full days.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been coming here since he was 11 months old. I have seen his confidence grow and is now speaking clearly. He often talks about his friends and key people at home. The app is very informative and gives me all the information about my son's day. I am able to check the app throughout the day
to see how he is getting on.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has loved being at Bright Horizons. He is always happy to go in and gives big smiles whenever we mention the staff at home. We love all the photos and the app telling us what our child has been up to, letting us know important details and keeping us up to date is so important to us. At this
nursery, we feel our child is loved as well as looked after. A name rather than a number. The only thing is there is no option for teacher holidays, so quite expensive.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.858)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.858) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Nottingham 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 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 4.938 for Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (181 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.938
  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 4.92 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Nottingham Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 16 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 87 number of registered child places is 17.4. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.4 = 0.92
  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.

Krupa

Krupa

Job Title: Nursery Manager

My name is Krupa and I am the manager at Bright Horizons Nottingham. I started my journey with Bright Horizons in 2021 along with my children who attend the nursery. Whilst completing my BA Hons Degree in Childhood Studies in 2009, I knew very early on that I wanted my career path to be within the Early Years sector.


I have worked in numerous schools, children's centres, Private Education and orphanages, where I have been able to learn and develop in all my roles and I believe that I am still learning every day.


My passion is to make a difference to the children and the team I work with, along with supporting them.


I truly believe that our environment is the child’s first educator and by having core principles children are able to flourish and be ready for the wider society. I am excited to be working at Bright Horizons Nottingham and be part of developing this welcoming nursery further.
