Bright Horizons Richmond Day Nursery and Preschool provides high-quality care and education for children aged 3 months to 5 years.

This purpose-built nursery offers four well-resourced rooms and a large outdoor area, including a 'Cooking Room', a 'Literacy Lounge' and 'Discovery Room' for children to play, learn and discover the world around them.

The Forest School allows the children to extend their learning into the outdoors where they can expand their imaginations, gain confidence and learn new skills. They especially enjoy getting creative in the mud kitchen.

Their unique Healthy Hearts and Minds activities provide inspirational and engaging learning experiences using the innovative and well established Boogie Mites and myHappymind programmes.

An enriching Ready for School programme gives every child the opportunity to gain knowledge and confidence to thrive in school and beyond.

In addition, your child will also love the nursery's extra-curricular Spanish lessons.

The setting is located close to Richmond town centre with good transport links into central London.

The fees include meals and snacks, branded nappies, nappy cream, bottles and formula baby milk as appropriate.

The nursery was rated 'Good' by Ofsted in January 2018.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter loves going to this nursery. The staff are amazing with the kids and really care for them. The food is great too. She often eats 'double portions'. The facilities are very spacious with a separate activity room when the weather is not so great. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent place, friendly, happy, safe. Lovely staff with low staff turnover and a good learning experience. A garden with water features and sand pit and days out to the woods allows the kids to not feel stuck indoors. My son has been there for 2 years with no problems and made lots of friends.
Keep
up the good work.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Really lovely environment for children. Amazing facilities such as the outside area and the large play room


The staff are just fantastic really attentive of the children and I just feel a great peace of mind that my child is being cared and looked after. You can tell that staff genuinely care about

the children and interact and engage with the children. I love the fact when I arrive that my son runs to his care worker and gives her kisses and cuddles. It proves that he is very comfortable at the nursery and with his care worker.


I am really impressed with how far my son has come along with his social interaction, speech and even his eating habits. I would recommend this nursery to any parent who wants total peace of mind that their child is in safe hands. I did look at cheaper nurseries but they really paled in comparison and this nursery is definitely worth the extra money.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending the nursery for the last couple of years and I could not be any happier with how kind, patient and supportive everyone has been with her. The facilities in nursery are lovely, helped by the fact it is pretty new, and the staff have been amazing. I would not hesitate to
recommend the nursery to other parents

Review from Kelly O (Mother of Child) published on 25 August 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery has developed my daughter tremendously. She has always been very happy and confident but she has learnt so much by attending the nursery. They do excellent activities within all the rooms such as Messy play, painting, water and sand. The children also go on regular trips to the local park,
local shops such as Pets At Home and the community such as the fire station, The nursery actively takes part in Forest School and the children love it by the pictures on the boards. The nursery is very clean and is organised very well by the excellent management team. The garden is a excellent space for the children to run around and explore. My daughter talks about her favourite teachers all the time and I am so happy that I know my daughter is being cared for properly when I am at work.


I would recommend Richmond 200% to anyone.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.639)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.639) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Richmond Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 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 4.864 for Bright Horizons Richmond Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (115 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.864
  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 4.775 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Richmond Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 11 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 71 number of registered child places is 14.2. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.2 = 0.775
  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.
