Review from Connor S (Father of Child) published on 19 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery, Newton Heath, my son has been going since November 2023, my son has been looked after to a high standard. Staff are amazing, so polite and funny and also happy to assist with any questions I have. My son has come along massively with his speaking and language and also everyday self-skills, he is like a new child each and every day. I pick him up, he is always happy, clean and well looked after. I would recommend to any parent to put your son or daughter here, you will not be disappointed.

I would recommend this nursery 10 times over to parents looking for a nursery for their child to feel safe and happy.

Review from Blessing A (Mother of Child) published on 9 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The staff are very approachable and nice. My daughter currently attends the nursery and they take very good care of her. They also took good care of my son previously and now attends their holiday club. As a child with high energy levels, I was very pleased with the care he received and was part of the reason, I decided to take his sister there. They sometimes also go to the park to have fun and I will highly recommend the nursery.

Review from Kim W (Mother of Child) published on 28 May 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter went here until she went to nursery school. Then I got my son a place, and now my daughter uses the before and after school clubs and holiday club.
They both have loads of fun and cant wait to go to nursery.
The staff are approachable and friendly.
They bent over backwards for us during the first lockdown. They also went above and beyond and assisted with a personal touch when my partner had to have major surgery.

If my children are happy, then I don't have the mum guilt prioritising work to give them a good life.

Overall Experience
Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery in Newton Heath is a wonderful nursery. All staff are always smiling and friendly. It is clean and tidy. The staff helps my son and daughter to develop their skills (gross motor, fine motor, speech and social interaction). They take them for a walk to the park and around the nursery. It is a place of fun.

I really like this nursery and I recommend it to every mum and dad.

Overall Experience

Talking about the experiences at this nursery I don't have much to talk about because my daughters started going to this nursery in September last year, but what I have to tell about this little experience I have - it is being very useful for my daughters. They are developing their skills very well, despite that they have a lot of difficulties, but they are improving their skills a lot of and I as a mother, I just have to thank you for the wonderful team that this nursery has. The staff are very good, they are very welcoming, they are wonderful as professionals. Thank you.

Louise
Louise Job Title:Nursery ManagerJoined: 2023

Hello, my name is Louise and I have worked within the early years sector for over ten years and joined the Brighter Beginnings team in 2023. Over my decade of experience, I have worked my way up from an apprentice to becoming a nursery manager. I have gained an array of knowledge during my time as an early-year practitioner, beginning with a level 2 apprenticeship and more recently graduating from Manchester Metropolitan University completing a degree in Early Years and Childhood studies.

My passion for early years has been something that has driven me to ensure all children and families have a sense of belonging during their time in our setting and feel that they are listened to and understood. As a parent myself, I aim to give support to all families and hope to build strong partnerships with parents and carers. At Brighter Beginnings Newton Heath we love to arrange lots of different special events across the year which we open up to the whole community, some of our most recent events have been a Halloween event in our outdoor provision ‘Brighter Blossoms’, summer and Christmas fairs and stay and play sessions.

It’s a wonderful way to reach out to families and the wider community.

Imogen
Imogen Job Title:Deputy Manager and Room LeaderJoined: 2021

Hello, my name is Imogen, I joined Brighter Beginnings in 2021.

I began my career as an apprentice achieving a Distinction grade in my level 3 qualification.

Since then, I have been given the opportunity to be Newton Heath’s 16–24-month (Little Explorer’s) room leader.

As a room leader, I take pride in all of my work and I am determined to do whatever I put my mind to. I feel confident when leading my team and ensuring children’s and family’s needs are always met to a high standard. I ensure a high-quality provision is provided to the children in our care, and ensure the playroom is fun, inviting and welcoming to all!

I am always looking for new ways and activities to engage the children. I enjoy working together as a whole nursery to create a happy, engaging space for children to grow, develop and establish a positive sense of self.

Karen
Karen Job Title:Room LeaderJoined: 2016

Hello, my name is Karen and I have been with Brighter Beginnings for 8 years and have over 30 years experience working with children and families.

I am level 3 qualified in early years and also hold level 2 and 3 in play work.

As a room leader, my aims are to provide a safe, secure and caring environment for our babies and children, where they can thrive and develop in their own unique way. I enjoy working alongside the big staff team here at Newton Heath as there is a wide range of qualifications and years of experience amongst our team members. I feel that we all contribute and collaborate with one another to further develop our own knowledge to provide outstanding care for children and families.

Paige
Paige Job Title:Room LeaderJoined: 2018

Hello, my name is Paige and I am a level 3 qualified nursery practitioner. I completed my qualification as an early years practitioner in college 12 years ago. I have worked at Brighter Beginnings for over 6 years, progressing to becoming a room leader in 2022.

I love working with children and families and giving them new and exciting experiences to promote their growth and development.

As a mum to two young boys myself, I understand how parents may feel when introducing their little ones to nursery life, but with the support of the whole team, we believe we create a smooth transition for both parents and the children.

Ellie
Ellie Job Title:Room LeaderJoined: 2020

Hi, my name is Ellie and I’m one of the room leaders in our Adventures room. I have been a part of the Brighter Beginnings team since 2020.

I’m currently enrolling on a Level 5 Qualification which I’m really excited to begin and feel will help me progress in my leadership position. I pride myself on sharing my knowledge with the whole team to ensure high standards are maintained throughout everything that we do here at Newton Heath.

I love working in the early years and being able to provide the children with great awe and wonder opportunities and new experiences. I enjoy supporting and encouraging children to reach development milestones, and feel a sense of accomplishment myself when children achieve!
