My child, with every visit, becomes more friendly and open-minded. She gets to know friends and keeps talking about them when she gets home.
Staff are very kind and helpful. No wonder kids feel like home here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We all love Nottingham Day Nursery. My child loves it and so do the parents. We're impressed with the variety of activities, the attention to the kid's needs and personalities and the capabilities of the staff. All our child's carers are outstanding and communication is first rate. Food is excellent
and a valuable supplement to the home diet of a picky kid! Would recommend in a heartbeat. P.s love the themed weeks, space, meals etc first class.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Great nursery, staff are very easy to talk to and ensure they are up to date on any issues your child has when you drop them off. They take excellent care of my child and I never have any worries about how he will be during the day as I know they will look after him really well.


The children are

free to explore and they are often taken outside which I feel is very important. Food is good quality and nutritious, they are very careful with dietary needs/requirements.

My daughter has been with Asquith Nottingham Day Nursery from 9 months. Her transition into toddlers was excellent to where she thrives and achieves to her fullest potential. She is a very happy and contented child. Staff constantly build on friendships with my daughter, asking especially about her
weekend activities to co-learn into nursery activities. My daughter often relates nursery into her home life. Very happy overall.

My son has been attending Asquith Nottingham Day Nursery since he was 10 months old (he is 4 in six weeks) and loves going to nursery. I feel my child is well looked after by the girls. I'm very pleased with pre-school and how well they support my child, especially through challenging times. Couldn't
be happier.

Great nursery, good educational standards with topics we can follow at home. I can tell my child enjoys his time and learns new skills by what he tells me and his interaction with other kids and adults. Good staff who are engaged with the kids and work well together to achieve a positive environment.

Since joining Asquith Nottingham Day Nursery, my son has developed in so many ways. He is more confident and balanced and looks forward to going to nursery every day. From my perspective, the nursery is a fun and bright environment and provides all the necessities. The nursery has experienced teachers
who are caring and professional. Thank you so much making the difference.

The nursery has gone above and beyond to accommodate my son who has additional needs.
They work tirelessly to create a warm, friendly and safe environment and he thoroughly enjoys attending. He has developed so much and it is all thanks to the staff. He wouldn't be the charismatic, confident and sociable
young boy if it wasn't for your help and support.

Our daughter has thrived since starting at Nottingham Day Nursery.
She loves to come here and interact with her fellow pupils very well.
The nursery is doing a good job as she appears less bored despite spending long days at the nursery.

The ladies are really lovely. They've helped my daughter move up to her new room and have made both her and myself feel really welcome. I'm looking forward to seeing how she gets on in her new room with the help of her amazing key worker.

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.
