Both of my children have been at this nursery since they were a few months old and their learning and development has come on so much in their time here. They both really enjoy coming to nursery and have good relationships with their keyworkers. They have both made friends here and their social skills

My child is always cared for to a high standard. Her individuality is respected whilst encouraging her to be part of the group and to learn the social skills necessary to be school ready. I notice changes in her development on a constant basis and I am grateful for the imaginative ways the staff find
to encourage the children's development.

Over the last 4 years both of my children have attended Timperley. They have supported and taught my children and given them a safe, friendly and secure environment for them to grow. Both of my children have loved attending nursery and we will be sad to leave when my last chidl goes to school.

I am very happy with my son's progress. He comes home happy every day and has clearly had lots of new experiences. There are opportunities for me as a parent to participate too. After his time at the nursery, I'm sure my son will be more than ready for the school experience.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter is a handful and is very clingy towards myself and staff. I've noticed since she started in November 2017 this has become much better and she is less clingy and more independent. This is thanks to the staff and nursery. They are very professional and I am always informed about everything
that has happened or what my daughter has done.

My experience of Bright Horizons Timperley Day Nursery and Preschool has been positive, my daughter really enjoys her days there and the staff have always been caring for her. The nursery is also quite flexible and for a while when dropping off was a bit difficult they were very accommodating in allowing
me to come in early to sit with my daughter to help her settle. There are also plenty of staff to sit with my daughter to help her settle. There is also plenty of staff on early in the morning to give cuddles if needed, which has made her feel very settled. I would recommend the nursery to other people with children the same age.

I cannot fault this nursery I was a very nervous first-time mum, leaving my baby to go back to work. The staff are always welcoming and friendly and I feel like I am leaving my son with good friends in a safe and happy environment. The facility is purpose built with a great outdoor space. The food is
excellent and my son has come on so much since attending he is happy and is always excited to get into nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.421)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.421) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Timperley Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 14 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 4.626 for Bright Horizons Timperley Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (148 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.626
  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 4.795 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Timperley Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 14 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 88 number of registered child places is 17.6. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.6 = 0.795
  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.

Aimee

Job Title: Deputy Manager Joined: 2019

My love for child care began at the age of 17 when I enrolled on a Cache diploma in child care and education course and began placements working in nursery settings.


After gaining my level 3 qualification I began working in one of the nurseries where I did my placement. I worked there for 10 years, working with all age groups ranging from 0-5 years.


Starting as a level 3 practitioner I soon became a senior practitioner with the responsibility of running the toddler unit and then was promoted to third in charge. During my time at the nursery, I went on to study at university and gained a Foundation Degree in Early Year’s Child Hood Studies. This enabled me to gain even more knowledge to go along with my many years of experience. I am really looking forward to developing my career and the exciting future ahead of me by joining the Bright Horizons Timperley team.
