I recently changed my child's nursery to Brighter Beginnings, Chadderton and I can say that I am happy with this decision. The staff have been welcoming and friendly. They have updated me on my child's day, each day and what she had to eat that day, etc. They are also good with updating their social
media, so I can see what my daughter has been up to, playing, painting etc. My little girl is really enjoying her time here.

My first child went to Brighter Beginnings Chadderton and we loved it so much that our second child now attends even though we have moved out of the area. All staff are happy to help - they are amazing and treat the children like their own family. The resources and activities carried out are excellent
and very engaging for the children. My youngest has a great time every day he is there and my oldest has fond memories of the staff and time he spent there, so much so he is going to do some holiday club there in the summer and is looking forward to it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are absolutely brilliant. They go above and beyond for each and every one of them. My daughter absolutely loves nursery and has become very attached to all the nursery assistants. They have brilliant routines and day plans. They have helped through big milestone steps, such as potty training
and worked with me to reach these achievements. A lot of effort is put in daily. Seeing my child happy entering nursery saying good morning and constantly talking about the staff and children outside of nursery melts my heart. So great job and thank you Brighter Beginnings, Chadderton.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All members of staff go above and beyond but my son really has built a special bond with one member of staff in particular, in the rainbow room who has helped bring him on with his speech, wanting to use the toilet and everything in between. Honestly, I could not thank her enough! I am really gutted
that he will be leaving in a couple of weeks to join a nursery closer to home, but I would love to thank all the staff for their help.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child started in September 2021 and settled in straight away. The nursery have been so caring and friendly towards him that he happily skips in and looks forward to going. The outdoor space is so big, plenty of room for the children to run about in and the staff are always teaching them new things
and about new places (which I always hear about for days at home). As he is starting reception in September, the staff have taken the effort to prepare him, by even taking him to see his new school and talking about it to him, which has made so much difference to ease his nerves! When I pick him up and have a glimpse of him before he spots me, he is always smiling from ear to ear with all of his friends and as a parent that makes me truly happy. Thank you Brighter Beginnings, Chadderton.

My two boys attend the nursery and absolutely love it. They run in through the gates every day. The girls are so kind, caring and love to watch or boys grow. They learn so much, i will be sad when they are too old to attend. Baby number three will be settling at nursery soon and i couldn't think of
better staff to look after our children.

All the staff are friendly. My child is very happy at the nursery and looks forward to going there in the morning. My child has grown in confidence and is always learning new things. Reports on what my child is doing are given to me every day and we are regularly given feedback on my daughter's progress
and what we could do at home to aid her development. The nursery participates in different celebrations and has a range of activities for the children.

I’ve had my two boys attend this nursery. Both boys took a while to settle as they started at the age of three as they’d been home with me before then. The staff were amazing helping my boys to settle as well as putting my mind at rest at the same time. My boy now goes in without tears, and comes out
with a huge smile on his face. Amazing staff, lovely nursery, happy boy… I couldn’t ask for more. Thank you.

My child started the nursery in September 2021 full-time and has loved every minute of it.


The team are brilliant and everyone is so caring towards all the children, making them feel safe and happy.


The set-up of the nursery and the running of all the activities is amazing, there’s so much to

do!


There are regular updates and reviews completed and as a parent, it’s so lovely to hear about what my child has been up to.


The meals that the nursery provides cater for all diets and we first-hand really appreciate the effort that is made and the variety on offer.


Overall, Brighter Beginning Chadderton is definitely a nursery that I would recommend to family and friends in the future.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.957)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.957) out of 10 for Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery, Chadderton is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.957 for Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery, Chadderton is calculated as follows: ( (400 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 418 Ratings = 4.957
  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 Brighter Beginnings Day Nursery, Chadderton is based on 35 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 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 35 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.
