My daughter has just left Bright Horizons to start reception. She’s enjoyed her time there and it’s been lovely to see her grow and develop and make friends. The staff have been friendly and welcoming from day one. We really felt part of the Bright Horizons family.

We have a child with additional physical needs and have found Bright Horizons, Wimbledon House extremely eager to learn how to care for him. They have actively engaged with his support workers such as having visits from the physio and the SALT team. Highly recommend them and feel that our kid is in
safe hands.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my daughter and I are big fans of this nursery and all the wonderful staff. My daughter is excited and happy to throw herself into the arms of the baby room staff in the morning and she’s all smiles when I collect her in the afternoon. The lovely pictures they share throughout the day always show
what a lovely fun time she’s having. On my side, I felt quite nervous returning to work when she was only 9 months old, but the staff have always kept me fully informed about her progress. The slightest behaviour out of the normal is flagged to me immediately by phone, just as an update so I can decide what if anything I would like to do in response. I have wonderfully detailed updates at the end of every day from people who obviously care very much for my daughter. Any requests I have made have always been taken very seriously. Such open and honest communication has completely set my mind at ease, and the joy on my daughter’s face has made this nursery a safe and happy place for us.

Our daughter is enjoying every day in the nursery. She is in the Baby room with friendly and caring staff helping her development. The staff sees us as a parent and there is never a day they don’t have time for a handover telling us about our daughter's day. We feel the nursery is a safe and good environment
for our daughter.

A brilliant nursery, the staff are lovely and genuinely care about the children. My baby loves going in and they make a real effort to focus on development and personal needs. They focus on having a key worker per child and ours is wonderful! The nursery is well managed, helpful and very professional.

My son is always happy to go to this nursery and that is the best indication for me. The staff are lovely and very caring. They also helped me to potty train my son, I honestly couldn’t have done it without them. The managers are very kind and helpful, always trying to accommodate our needs. I am very
happy with my choice!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sending my pre-schooler and toddler to Bright Horizons Wimbledon House Nursery and Preschool has been such a wonderful experience. The staff are second to none and provide such a positive, nurturing and fun environment while keeping a professional manner. My toddler wakes up most mornings asking if
it's nursery day, with the biggest and most hopeful smile on her face. There have been many tears when I've had to tell her no nursery today. My pre-schooler has grown so much during his time there and is now feeling confident and ready on his journey to school in a few months, thanks to the staff who have provided so much support to help guide him along the way. They have all made such an impact on my son and I'm often told by him what his teacher says or what his teacher does. He will certainly miss them all. I would have no hesitation in recommending Bright Horizons Wimbledon House Nursery and Preschool to anyone looking to send their child there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery has caring staff, with pleasant and spacious rooms with lots of equipment. The staff have a nice teaching technique and the staff loves every child individually, above all the kids are allowed to be as they like. My daughter moved to this nursery into the preschool room from another nursery.
I was very very unhappy with my previous nursery. I found it very difficult to trust another nursery again. We found ourselves demoralised and very much in fear after our previous nursery. However, Bright Horizons Wimbledon House Nursery and Preschool team made the very best effort to make us comfortable and confident. My daughter is given individual care and she is loved for the way she is. She loves the nursery and she settled in, in one week. The staff helped with her food and playing and were very patient with potty training, and they never complain about my child's mischievous acts. The staff understand child behaviour very well and support their learning. Very elaborate observations are made. We love the entire team such as the manager, deputy manager, room leader and our carer. The nursery has a very big garden.

Since my son started here he has come on leaps and bounds in regards to his communication, speech and other aspects of his development. He looks forward to his weekly nursery sessions and happily skips off without a second glance at mummy. The caregivers all seem wonderful and I couldn’t fault the nursery.
Keep up the good work guys.

My toddler has been going there since they were 8-months old and they really love it. They always come back home having learned something new. Such as new songs, dances, words and expressions. The opening hours are long which is very convenient for us as we're both working, and the grounds are large
and always clean, with several outdoor play areas. The staff are very friendly and professional.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Such a great environment for all ages. My pre-schooler is loving the new challenges and experiences of the more school-like environment in pre-school and is really benefiting from the extensive access to both indoor and outdoor facilities at all times. She enjoys all aspects of her time in pre-school
and is always happy to come in each day. My one-year-old is also flourishing in the baby room, and especially after so long struggling with the social restrictions bought about by Covid, she is loving the opportunity to play and interact with other babies and adults outside of the home environment.

We are very happy with Wimbledon House’s facilities, it is possibly unique in the area for the amount of space the children have, especially outdoors. This gives them the freedom to roam and grow. More importantly, the staff are excellent - the care they provide is genuine, our son looks forward to
coming into pre-school every day. Our son has been here since he was 9 months old and he has grown into a happy, polite, and sociable boy thanks to the efforts of all of the staff.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.802)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.802) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Wimbledon House Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.802 for Bright Horizons Wimbledon House Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (184 Excellents x 5) + (41 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.802
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Wimbledon House Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 19 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 93 number of registered child places is 18.6, which has been reached with 19 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
