Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My three year old and one year old are both now enrolled. My son was made so welcome from birth that in reality needed so settling in session as all the staff had already made sure they had to got to know him. His key worker is amazing and he jumps into her arms every drop-off.
My daughter's confidence
has increased significantly since joining pre-school. The routine is excellent and I'm impressed that she learned about things such as the water cycle. They teach and have fun. Organised activities are great. My daughter's key worker is so supportive and we can see the improvement in her speech since joining pre-school. This nursery is like an extension of our family unit.

We are very happy with the care our son has received at the nursery since he has been here. He has been here since he was nine months old and has developed well under their care and he will be sad to leave them when he leaves in September.

Our son enjoys going to the nursey. He plays a lot and learns more skills. The food is good too. He always has a nap there and his nappies are checked and changed regularly. He likes his carers.

Review from C C (Mother of Child) published on 11 January 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My youngest has attended since she was 9 months old. In every room, I've been very impressed with the activities she's been encouraged to do. More importantly, I've always found the staff and her key workers to be outstanding. They genuinely like and care for my child, happily reporting achievements
and special moments, taking pride in her development.


Each transition to a new room has been handled well, taking time to introduce children to new room by a series of visits so the children feel comfortable and already know their new caregivers.


I wouldn't hesitate to strongly recommend Bright Horizons Timperley to anyone - from baby to toddler to pre-school my daughter has been wonderfully looked after by caring and enthusiastic staff who have helped her to develop. Her time there has been enjoyable for her and I've been pleased every drop off that she's spending the day somewhere she loves and is so safe and happy. We'll be sad to say goodbye when she leaves to start in reception.

I have found Bright Horizons Timperley Day Nursery outstanding. I looked at a few other nurseries but I knew instantly that I wanted my little girl to come here. All the staff are amazing, approachable and friendly. The food is outstanding also. I would highly recommend this nursery to everyone, my
child is extremely shy and has adapted so well and have come out of her shell.

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.
