Review from Jamila G (Mother of Child) published on 27 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our 2nd son has just completed his nursery journey and started school. He has been attending since he was tiny. We've been supported with both boys as they have grown from babies, toddlers and preschool.
The management and admin have always been brilliant with a strong team of staff who are kind, caring and friendly; always happy to talk and answer any questions or concerns.
The boys have been excited and happy to go to nursery, as it's been their constant all these years with my eldest still greeted warmly on pick up of his brother!
Our children have been encouraged in their development and learning, through fun and play. The nursery has a lovely open outdoor space. Well-planned activities throughout every day and tasty food. Communication through the app is also very good.

We will miss everybody and are very thankful for the personal attention each member of staff has given our boys. A special thanks to the manager and all the team!

Reply from Amanda Barlow, The Parent Team at Bright Horizons Reigate Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for your kind review! The team are thrilled to have been part of your sons' journeys and glad they enjoyed their time at the nursery. We appreciate your kind words about our staff and support. Best wishes to your boys as they begin school.

Overall Experience
I have had two children go through the nursery now and as a family, we have had a brilliant experience.
The low staff turnover has given the children consistency and I felt we were very well supported as a family.

Both children built lovely friendships, learned a lot and left very well-prepared for school. Thank you to the lovely staff and management.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, Campaigns & Digital Marketing Executive at Bright Horizons Reigate Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for your heartfelt review! We're so pleased to hear that your family has had a brilliant experience with us. Consistency is important to us and we're glad it made a positive impact on your children. It's wonderful to know they built friendships, learned so much and felt prepared for school.

Overall Experience

I've been so happy with the process of my daughter starting at the nursery this month. All of the staff have been accommodating and welcoming to her and all of her settling-in sessions and first day have gone well. I've been super impressed with the updates on the app throughout the day and contact from the team to keep us reassured about our daughter's progress also.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, Campaigns & Digital Marketing Executive at Bright Horizons Reigate Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for your positive review! We're delighted to hear that your daughter's start at the nursery has been smooth and welcoming.

Review from L C (Mother of Child) published on 3 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I currently have my second child at the nursery and it's still providing the high standard of service it was when my eldest went there 6 years ago. The staff are friendly and caring. Everything is overseen by a highly experienced and knowledgeable management team who are always there for queries. We love that the nursery was a purpose-built building so everything is well planned out. The facilities are great, especially the outdoor spaces where they let children free play freely and choose to be outside or inside. I have recommended the nursery to other parents and continue to recommend it.

Review from S L (Mother of Child) published on 1 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our girls love going to nursery. They have attended Bright Horizons since they were 8 months and 1 respectively, and all the way through have loved their experience. We were closely supported as the girls settled in to ensure they were happy. They confidently go into nursery every day because it is a home from home for them. They have lovely relationships with the staff, and love all the activities. We really appreciate that all the staff know the girls by name, even if they don’t work closely with them or are fairly new to the setting. The whole nursery feels like a big family and the girls have friends across all of the rooms. Our eldest is encouraged to take leadership roles like lunch helper and line leader which make her feel really proud of herself, and she loves the reader programme and yoga! We cannot fault the warmth, support and community ethos fostered by the manager and her team. It is a special place to be.

Reply from Amanda Barlow, Campaigns & Digital Marketing Executive at Bright Horizons Reigate Day Nursery and Preschool

Thank you for sharing your positive experience! We're thrilled your girls have loved Bright Horizons since they were very young. It's fantastic to see your eldest daughter taking on leadership roles and engaging in programs like the reader program and yoga. Thank you for your kind words about our manager and team.

Review from James T (Father of Child) published on 22 April 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son started attending the nursery in December 2023 and his progression has been incredible, becoming more confident in big groups and growing his own little personality. He has gone from running to greet me at the door so he can leave, to dragging me into the room to show me what toys he’s been playing with.
The nursery has been excellent from the start, we had a great experience visiting, onboarding, settling in and beyond. All of the staff are friendly, remember every child’s name and are generally brilliant - communicating, offering insight and support, and showing a genuine interest in my child’s development.

He’s very happy here, and so are his parents!

Review from Penelope G (Mother of Child) published on 19 February 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Overall, very happy with the team and how welcome they have made her feel. She is happy at nursery. We appreciate the regular updates via the app.
Only slight issue is that the meals aren't as varied as they were in the beginning. It might not be helped as she is part-time but for example, this week she had pasta twice and not a lot of vegetables.
Also, chatting to Mums at other nurseries, it might be nice to organise outside activities to come visit the nursery, e.g. dance classes, pet visits etc.

But overall, very happy.

Review from M F (Mother of Child) published on 26 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started in the baby room in October 2023. Prior to attending, she had spent every day with me so I was concerned about how she and I would manage with the separation anxiety. The staff ensured that they gained all necessary information from me about her, likes, dislikes, current skills, preferred communication styles such as makaton etc. The settling-in process was completed with her individual needs prioritised. I was kept up to date with regular photos and encouraged to ring if I had any worries. Fast forward three months and my daughter is flourishing. Her speech has really come on and she is more confident in herself. The staff are extremely caring and loving and I couldn’t ask for more. I feel the staff are invested in all of the children so know my daughter is safe and happy. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Review from Stephanie M (Mother of Child) published on 15 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been attending Bright Horizons Reigate since she was 7 months old and will remain there until starting school next year. She loves nursery!
The team at the nursery are incredible, friendly and passionate about delivering the best care and support to the children. I have always felt comfortable leaving my daughter in their care, it’s been a pleasure to watch the friendships form.
My daughter is now in preschool, she takes part in yoga, boogie mites, Spanish, writing and countless outdoor games. The nursery makes sure that no day is the same and educates even at a young age through play.
The manager is an experienced manager, who in fact was my nursery carer 30 years ago, which goes to show you would be leaving your child in the care of a team led by someone with expansive knowledge on childcare, health and safety.

Cannot recommend highly enough.

Review from J C (Mother of Child) published on 9 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We feel incredibly grateful that our son has settled in so well at Bright Horizons and that he is so happy, and that is a credit to the staff and leadership there.
After visiting other nurseries, we instantly got a feeling that Bright Horizons was right for our son and we were so right as (even when he is feeling wobbly) he is always happy to come in each day, and he always cheers up quickly. It’s especially a huge weight off my shoulders to know he is in such great hands each day, with people that know him so well. The nursery staff always reassure us and their communication is brilliant: the time they spend on this really matters so much to parents.
The staff really are special, and this is reflected in how happy all of the children are. It’s wonderful to see the enthusiasm they all have, as well as the relationships they clearly develop with the children.

As a teacher, it is also great to see the variety of activities that the children get to do each day.

Review from Stacey F (Mother of Child) published on 26 April 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

After being let down last minute by another nursery, Bright Horizons, Reigate stepped in to help and I couldn't be happier. The management team were very helpful and my son settled in straight away. The staff are all fantastic, very knowledgeable, caring and create great bonds with all the children. My son always happily walks in each morning. He has developed brilliantly over the last year, growing in confidence too and regularly tells me when I pick him up that he had fun at nursery. Really grateful that we were let down elsewhere in the end or we wouldn't have found this place!

Review from Kim C (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Bright Horizons Reigate is a brilliant nursery. The teachers are all dedicated, passionate and kind. They take into account each child's individual needs. Whether it's dietary requirements, nappy requirements or big emotional adjustments at home the team step up to help and support not only my child but also myself as a parent. All the lessons are fun, interactive and sensory based, allowing the children to explore in their own time and soak up the information being shared. At the end of every nursery day, my daughter hops into the car and asks if she can go back! Additionally, the management team are fantastic and a great support to parents. My child's safety always feels like a priority at the nursery and I feel confident that she will be well cared for when dropping her off in the mornings. The nursery is always clean and organised and clearly has incredible food as my daughter only really eats when she's at nursery. We are so thankful to be part of the Bright Horizons Reigate family!

Review from N M (Father of Child) published on 25 February 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My oldest son attended the nursery for 2 years, before leaving in September for reception. He absolutely loved the nursery and was always happy and excited in the mornings when going in. The staff were always very welcoming, caring and passionate about the care they provide for the children through everyday activities and always ensured children were settled and happy. Management were very thorough, professional and always responded to emails in a timely manner. My youngest son now attends the nursery and again the staff are always very kind and welcoming especially with settling him in. It didn't take him long and this is down to the staff being very caring, reassuring and making him feel welcome. 100% recommend!

Review from Nicola K (Mother of Child) published on 12 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has absolutely loved her time in preschool. From the first day, she was treated with such kindness and the team took the time to get to know her, her likes and dislikes and make her feel at ease. On her second day, she ran in smiling and shouting, "bye mummy". The team plan fantastic, fun, learning activities and keep parents updated with photos via the app, which is always lovely to see. The food goes down really well with my daughter too. The facilities are well-kept, clean and there are great toys and activities for the kids. My daughter always has so much to tell me when she comes home. On the admin side, the management team are very responsive and helpful, always able and happy to answer any questions. I would definitely recommend Bright Horizons, Reigate Day Nursery and Preschool. Thank you to all the team.

Overall Experience

Since my son has come to the nursery from June 2022. I have been extremely impressed by all members of staff at Bright Horizons. They are all very caring and loving women who know my son inside out. The management are very responsive to emails and are wonderful at offering advice. As far as nurseries go, this nursery feels like a home away from home. The baby room is large with lots of toys and things to keep babies entertained. The outdoor space is beautiful and sheltered. My son is offered a range of varied food throughout the day and I love the app so I can keep track of what he has eaten as well as look at photos that have been taken throughout the day. Overall, I'd highly recommend this beautiful nursery to anyone. The staff are friendly and wonderful lovely ladies that truly care for my son.

Louise
Louise Job Title:Nursery ManagerJoined: 2014

Louise is the nursery manager. She has worked in childcare for 30 years, having gained her NNEB qualification in 1985. She started her career as a Nursery Nurse within a small nursery chain and soon realised that she enjoyed the managerial side of childcare, moving into a management role within the company in 1988. In 1990 Louise had the opportunity to join a small independent nursery as Manager and became part of the Teddies group of nurseries in 1997 which in turn joined the Bright Horizons network of nurseries in 2009.

During this time Louise has had two children who enjoyed the benefit of attending her nurseries. She also supported other nursery managers in a training role within the company to share and support good practices. After becoming part of Bright Horizons and having achieved an ‘outstanding’ accreditation from Ofsted at the Bright Horizons in Crawley, Louise decided that the time was right to further her education and attended university alongside her role as Manager, gaining first a Foundation degree and then a full degree and Early Years Teacher Status. As she completed this the opportunity to move to Reigate became available and she joined the team as nursery manager.

Her passion lies in striving for excellence and she is committed to the safeguarding welfare of the children, staff members and families at Reigate. Louise is also a Grandma and in her spare time enjoys visiting the theatre.

Debra
Debra Job Title:Deputy ManagerJoined: 2019

I have been working at the nursery since 2014, starting in the baby unit and gradually moving up the ranks to become the room leader, third in charge, and now the deputy manager. I also hold the role of the nursery SENCO, and I have a strong passion for child development in this area. Recently, I completed a Level 3 SENCO course to enhance my knowledge and dedication to this field.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my husband on our family farm. Meeting up with friends and family is another favourite pastime, and I love to unwind with a good book.

Lauren
Lauren Job Title:Third in Charge

I am the Third in Charge. I have achieved my BA Hons degree in Early Education and have many years of experience supporting preschool children with their transition to school.

I thrive on providing an environment and activities which enable the children to grow and flourish. I have a little boy who is 2 years old and loves being outdoors.

Being a member of the National Trust helps my family and I have some wonderful adventures together exploring natural environments. In my spare time, I also enjoy reading, and during the past year, I found a new interest in baking.
