  • Bright Horizons Broadgreen Day Nursery and Preschool, Liverpool
You and your child will love the beautiful nursery in Broadgreen, designed to support your child’s development from the age of 3 months to 5 years.

They care about the individual needs of every child. The nursery is laid out to give your little one the best age-specific environment in which to flourish, and they have a SENCO (Special Education Needs Coordinator) on-site for children who require an extra level of support.

The Broadgreen nursery baby room is split into Under 1s and 1-2s, allowing the team to tailor the care to each specific developmental stage. They separate the garden by age into four sections, so that indoor learning can be consolidated in a new, fresh environment that is modified for each age group.

For preschoolers, they focus on the unique Growing Enhancements programme to encourage natural curiosity to learn. This focuses on reading, writing and mathematics, alongside vocational subjects such as art and cooking, to help lay the foundations for future academic and creative achievements.

Community is also important to the team and they take the children on regular nature walks and library visits, to strengthen their knowledge and familiarity with their local area.

The setting is situated in the grounds of Broadgreen Hospital, with a buggy storage area for your convenience. There is also a dedicated Parent Room with sensory equipment for babies.

The long-standing team would love to meet you and your little one, so book a visit today and they will show you all the nursery has to offer during your own personal tour.

Bright Horizons Broadgreen Day Nursery is outstanding! Management is exceptional. The care our son has received from 13 months to 4 years of age, has been second to none. I searched for a nursery before choosing this one of our choices as it is the best there is! I could not rate each individual member
of staff more highly. You are an amazing team! Thank you to each of you for helping our son learn and develop in a safe environment.

This nursery is amazing, so glad I placed my son there. I love the daily updates on the app and makes me feel at ease knowing how nice the staff are and how much fun he has there. He often comes home with paintings and pictures of himself for me to put up in the house or in his scab book and I just
love seeing them.

My daughter started this nursery from 9 months old and I have had no complaints at all. She has gone through every stage of her childhood here and they have helped her become the bright and funny little girl she is. Every step of changing rooms the staff have been amazing with her and have kept us informed
along the way. Even when COVID hit they were so adaptable with every that was thrown at them and still made it as normal as possible for us all. I will miss sending my little girl here but they have even helped in preparing her for school.

All three of my children have attended the nursery, I have always felt at ease leaving each of them from their first drop-off. The staff are all welcoming and supportive in each of their individual needs, even remembering little details about activities they do away from nursery. The app that has been
introduced is really useful especially when I am not always doing the nursery pickup as I still get to see how their day has been. I can’t thank the staff enough for making each day enjoyable and would recommend the nursery to anyone.

We couldn't be happier with the excellent service and care our little girl has received over the past 9-10 months since she started at Broadgreen Bright Horizons. Her motor, language and social skills have improved hugely, as has her confidence. The little ones seem to have plenty of opportunities to
engage in a wide variety of activities. I am really pleased with the nursery, the staff are excellent and would highly recommend. Thank you to all of the fab team for all your hard work!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has been at Bright Horizons Broadgreen since he was 10 months old…he turns 4 at the end of September. He is so happy after spending a day there. In each room he’s been in from babies through to preschool he has always come home and surprised me with things he’s learned…his imagination
is out of this world and the amazing staff at Broadgreen are to thank for that. People are forever commenting about how good his language is. There are several members of staff who have really won his heart and helped him change from the shy boy he was (and still can be), into a confident and crazy little boy - Deputy manager and nursery staff thank you!
We now have our little girl there and the girls in the baby room have been truly amazing…when she puts her arms out to them to leave me in the morning, I know they must make her happy. The staff here are just great and worked so hard throughout the pandemic to keep my little boy happy and oblivious to the craziness of it all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When my wife was looking at different nurseries in the area, she instantly saw a difference between Bright Horizons Broadgreen Day Nursery and Preschool and the others. The staff at Bright Horizons were friendly and engaging, the children just seemed happier there were multiple activities to engage
with the children.
The staff at the nursery are extremely friendly and helpful, you can tell that they really enjoy helping the children learn and grow but most of all having fun doing it. Our daughter enjoys coming here so much so that most days she walks/runs into the room without saying goodbye. She is constantly talking about the fun she has had with not only the other children but the staff as well.
We have recommended this nursery to our friends who have enrolled their child as well.
The new app now means we can see how our daughter is doing during the day ie. toilet breaks, what she has eaten that day (too be fair she is fed better than me during the day).
Overall I would recommend this nursery in a heartbeat.

My son started in this nursery when he was 6 months old. I was really anxious for him to start nursery but thankfully this wonderful nursery and the amazing staff put all my worries at bay. My son is so happy and content after a day in Bright Horizon and I know he has had fun. I can’t thank the staff
in the baby room enough for the way they look after him and are always so friendly and welcoming. The app is also fantastic as I am able to check what he is up to while I am at work. Superstars! Highly recommend.

All staff are warm and welcoming and put my mind to ease when my little girl was settling in, she now loves nursery and you can see how much she loves the staff and how caring they are with her. If I'm ever worried, staff will always take the time to reassure me how she is that day. At the end of every
day, I get a day sheet telling me how she has been and what activities she has done that day and I can't thank you enough - all the staff and management for all the hard work.

My son has attended this nursery for around a year and has always been happy and excited when we pull up outside. I feel his needs have always been met and he is cared for so well by all staff. He has shown a massive improvement in his development and I feel this is due to his key worker planning appropriate
activities which has also supported his transition in his home life. I would highly recommend this nursery.

My son has been coming to this nursery since he was 10 months old and is now in preschool. All the staff are caring and approachable. Management have gone above and beyond to make sure my son's needs have been met, including emotionally and nutritionally. He has allergies and they have handled it perfectly
so I knew he was safe. I know he will be sad to leave for reception. My youngest will be starting soon. I’d recommend this nursery to anyone who would listen.

I have used this nursery for my two sons for five years now. I cannot fault the nursery and I have always felt confident in the care they give to my children. The staff are efficient in how they communicate with parents and during COVID 19 this has not altered. My children have always been cared for
and supported in an extremely happy environment. They are excited to attend the nursery and are welcomed every day by the friendly staff. My family very much appreciate the hard work of all the nursery staff in making these early years a very positive experience for my children.

I have had 2 children in the nursery - my youngest is currently in Preschool. We have been so pleased with the nursery throughout the last 5 years but never more so than during Lockdown. Without any hesitation, the nursery stayed open for key workers and made all necessary adaptations to keep things
safe. Throughout a very difficult time, the staff were always cheerful and caring and provided fun and stability for my daughter. We can’t thank them enough for all they have done. The outside space in the nursery is fantastic. The menus are healthy and varied. Most of all the staff are really excellent.

My son has been at this nursery for 2 and a half years now, having recently moved into preschool. The nursery have always been very supportive and attentive to his needs, with good effective communication wih us as parents. They have set clear, achievable goals and fed back to us on his progress. They
have supported him in transitioning between rooms. Our son loves nursery and the staff. I would highly recommend this nursery.

I absolutely love this place, both my boys have thrived here, and are truly loved. I couldn’t ask for a safer place to help them learn and grow.
Huge thanks to the staff, they’ve worked so hard to get all this social distance stuff right. And I believe they’ve done an incredible job, and all deserve
to be recognised for it.
Huge thanks to preschool, we miss you dearly, but the next boy will be up to see you soon.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son first started in the nursery in 2015. I was really impressed with how they interacted with children and the rapport they build up. So when I had my daughter in 2017, I was more than happy to enroll her in the nursery.
In March/April 2020 COVID happened and we went into lockdown. As a nurse
and keyworker, this was an extremely stressful time and apart from this nursery I had no one else to turn to regarding child care for my 3 year old daughter. The nursery manager and all the staff could not of been more supportive and I felt like they had gone out of their way to accommodate extra days that was required.
Even if COVID had not happened I would highly recommend this nursery as they are enthusiastic in role-play and teaching.
Communication has always been excellent and to a high standard
I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all of the team for the care they have given both my children.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.463)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.463) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Broadgreen Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 7 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 4.370 for Bright Horizons Broadgreen Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (78 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.37
  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 4.093 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Broadgreen Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 89 number of registered child places is 17.8. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.8 = 0.393
  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.
