We're very happy to have chosen this nursery.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear your son enjoys attending and has been well supported at his own pace, especially during his initial settling in and room transitions. It is wonderful to know you feel happy with your choice and your comments mean a great deal to us.
Every day she comes home with a smile on her face, talking about the fun activities she did with her friends and the staff. There's always something different everyday and the variety keeps her engaged.
The staff are the most caring and wonderful people, and it clearly reflects on our daughter as she talks fondly about them. They always talk about how her day went at pickup time and show great interest and care in all the children. A huge shoutout to the Sunshine room, who have such a fantastic relationship with her.
We really enjoy the observations that come through on the app so my partner and I can see the enriching activities they get up to at nursery.
The management from Marissa and Becca is top quality and we can't thank them enough for creating a wonderful nursery. We highly recommend sending your child here!
We couldn't be happier with Bright Horizons. Our son started when he was just 9 months old and is now nearly two, and he absolutely loves going in every week.
He attends three days a week and is always so excited to go which says everything. It's such a reassuring feeling as a parent knowing he's happy, settled, and genuinely enjoys his time there.
All of the staff are incredible, so warm, welcoming, and caring. They've taken the time to really get to know him as an individual, and it's clear how much they genuinely care about all the children. From day one, they made both him and us feel completely comfortable.
The environment itself is brilliant, it's safe, nurturing, and full of engaging activities that have really supported his development. We've seen such a positive difference in his confidence and social skills since starting.
We feel very lucky to have found such a fantastic nursery and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to other parents.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We are delighted to hear how happy your son is and how much he enjoys his time with us. It is lovely to know you feel reassured by our care and that he is growing in confidence and social skills. Your kind words about our team mean a great deal to us.
After considering our options in Hove, we attended an open day event at Bright Horizons and were really impressed. We felt it was clearly the right choice for our 7 month old baby to attend.
Since he has started at the nursery we have felt even more validated with our decision. Our little boy is happy, exploring and forming amazing bonds with both his key workers and the other babies in his room. It is clear that he is loved and extremely looked after.
We receive 3 monthly reports (sometimes more) going into amazing detail about his activities and how much he is growing in a loved environment.
As for most parents security was our highest priority when choosing a nursery and it is such a relief of mind knowing how secure and looked after he is.
If you want a loving, safe nursery with amazing staff then I cannot recommend Bright Horizons Hove enough.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so pleased to hear how happy your son is and that you feel confident in your choice. It's wonderful to know he's building strong bonds and that you feel reassured by our care and security.
Friendly staff, clean and stimulating environment with lots of fun and different activities.
The best nursery, care and games every day
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so pleased to hear how happy your daughter is and that she enjoys her time with her friends. It's wonderful to know you value our friendly team and the safe, stimulating environment we provide.
From the start we felt like it was the right place. Our son has several health issues which they have helped us with amazingly, and we have always felt like he is in a safe pair of hands.
You really feel like the staff care about the babies they're looking after, and that they really get to know them and their personalities.
We picked it because of its amazing outside space, but we truly love it because of the people.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so pleased to hear your son has settled in so well since November and that you've felt supported, especially with his health needs. It means a great deal to know you feel he's safe and truly cared for.
Our son started nursery last summer, and he has been a big fan ever since. The staff has been incredibly supportive of his individual preferences and helped him become a confident, happy young man. He's gained a lot of skills, learned to participate in social situations and he's genuinly enjoying his days at Bright Horizons.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear your son has settled so well and is growing in confidence. It's wonderful to know he enjoys his days with us, and we're proud to support his development and individual needs.
Professional and warm management who are very responsive and knowledge.
Loving caring staff who show genuine interest in the kids. Would definitely recommend. Benefits of a corporate mixed with the homely feel of an independent.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you feel supported by the team and that the nursery's mix of professionalism and warmth comes through. It means a lot that you'd recommend us, and we truly appreciate your kind words.
We absolutely love Bright Horizons Hove Day Nursery and couldn't be happier with the care our son receives! From the moment we walk through the door, it's clear that every member of staff genuinely cares about our child and his wellbeing.
The team create a nurturing environment where our son thrives. They're constantly organising creative activities that keep him engaged and excited to learn. The facilities are excellent and provide the perfect space for children to explore, play and develop.
A special mention to chef Dimitrios and the amazing food cooked fresh in-house (wish he would create his own cookbook!). It's lovely knowing our son is eating nutritious, delicious meals throughout the day.
Marissa, Becca and the management team have been incredibly supportive, truly taking the time to understand each child's individual needs and create a personalised approach.
We feel so fortunate to have found such a special nursery and cannot recommend them highly enough!
Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear how happy your son is and how much he enjoys the caring team, creative activities, great facilities, and fresh in-house meals. Your kind words mean so much to the whole nursery team.
Marisa is an outstanding manager-everything is organised to a very high standard, and her leadership creates a welcoming and supportive environment. Our daughter, who is naturally sensitive and was adjusting to a new country and language, was beautifully supported by her key person, Elnaz. She created a safe, caring space where our daughter quickly gained confidence and even learned English in a short time. She now goes to nursery each day with excitement.
We would also like to thank Daisy, Tia, Jack, Kennedy, Julia, and all the staff for their kindness and professionalism. We are equally grateful for the delicious meals (thank you, Dimitri!), excellent cleanliness, strong safeguarding, and enriching activities.
Choosing Bright Horizons Hove Day Nursery was absolutely the right decision for our family!
Thank you for sharing such heartfelt feedback! We're delighted your daughter feels happy and supported.
All staff are great, I feel very comfortable knowing my children are safe when I drop them of until I pick them up. The nursery is well run, staff are clearly happy, with good retention. The communication from staff is excellent. The bond my child has formed with the staff are lovely to see. Clearly they genuinely care.
Thank you for your kind words. We're so pleased you feel confident leaving your children with us and that they've built such lovely bonds with the team.
We couldn't be happier with Bright Horizons Hove Day Nursery! The building is stunning, and the garden is absolutely wonderful. The team is exceptional, warm, professional, and incredibly trustworthy. Our daughter has flourished here over the years, making wonderful memories and enjoying every moment. The care and thoughtfulness that go into the activities are truly impressive. We have nothing but praise for the nursery as it consistently exceeds our expectations. A huge thank you to three members of staff, in particular, and the managers for creating such a fantastic experience for both our daughter and us as parents!
Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled your daughter has flourished with us, and we truly appreciate your praise for our team.
The staff are universally friendly and helpful and all are invested in making the nursery welcoming for the children.
Our daughter goes in happily every day, looking forward to playing with both peers and carers. This was not our experience elsewhere.
We had a well-managed settling-in period that helped our daughter settle, whilst not dragging it out too long.
We have regular catch-ups with our key carer. Each time, their observations have been valuable and accurate. They have used these and our own observations to design a care plan that focuses on the aspects needed. They demonstrated how they apply these plans in productive, yet playful ways. The results we've seen have been great. Our girl has grown in confidence and ability greatly while attending.
Mainly, she enjoys going here.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that your daughter is happy, confident and thriving with us. It's wonderful to know the settling-in process, care plan and our team's support have made such a positive impact.
Really happy we chose Bright Horizons Hove Day Nursery and Preschool! We had a really bad experience in another nursery so I was very reserved at first but the team and management have been amazing and very supportive to both myself and my son throughout his first few weeks of adaptation. Would highly recommend!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you chose Bright Horizons Hove and that our team has been able to support you and your son during his transition. It's heartening to hear that your experience has been positive. The team appreciate your recommendation and looks forward to continuing to support your family.
I honestly cannot recommend this nursery enough! My daughter is starting school in September and just had her nursery graduation party, all of the staff went above and beyond to make the day special for the children! Lots of different activities, a picnic, the staff had created different play stations and a whole graduation ceremony which was so lovely! Also, little gifts for when we left the party were such a lovely touch! My daughter has loved attending the nursery & has grown in confidence massively since she first started! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to family & friends!
Thank you for the fantastic feedback! We're thrilled to hear your daughter's graduation was special and she's grown so much with us. Your recommendation means a lot- thank you!
The team have been amazing - I particularly want to call out the deputy manager and my son's key person, they've been brilliant - we receive daily feedback and updates from them via the app - learning what the group have been doing - the lovely food they've been eating. My son wakes up in the morning raring to go to nursery which makes me so happy.
Really enjoyed the recent parents evening which was full of helpful tips for parenting.
Thank you to all of the team!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience with the team.
Bright Horizons Nursery is such a lovely place, with caring, loving and super friendly staff. My daughter loves everyone, especially her key worker and has built amazing relationships with other staff members which she speaks about regularly at home. They have helped her so much on her little journey and I can really see their hard work through my daughter's improvement while at the nursery, she even asks to go to the nursery on the weekends. The next generation of my family will 100% be attending Bright Horizons seeing as they did such an amazing job!
Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We appreciate your kind words.
The staff regularly propose new activities for the kids and celebrate a variety of different occasions. Older kids regularly visit a local care home, which is such a unique experience for both sides. Kids have a lot of space to play outside and the nursery has its own chef. My daughter has made a lot of friends there and as a parent, I feel very comfortable knowing she's well taken care of.
Thank you for your five-star feedback and for sharing your experience with us.
My daughter started nursery at Bright Horizons six months ago and she has already formed a special bond with her key workers. We felt welcomed from the very first moment. They always engage her in a variety of fun activities and facilitate learning about new things. I would highly recommend Bright Horizons Nursery to anyone seeking exceptional care for their little one.
Thank you for your 5-star review and for sharing your positive feedback with us!
My daughter is very happy whenever she comes in in the morning, the entire team is very loving, they care a lot about the children's well-being and their learning. The time she spends there gives me a lot of peace, I feel that she is safe and well cared for.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted to hear that your daughter is happy and well-cared for at our nursery.

Meet the Team (2)
After completing my level 3 qualification in childcare at college in 2011 I knew I wanted to begin my career working in a nursery, I was lucky enough to be offered a job at Supersaurus nursery in 2012. I started working in the baby room where I grew in my role and was offered a Room Leader role in 2014 which I proudly accepted. I worked very closely with all families in helping support their children with their development and grew very close relationships.
In 2015 I was then offered the Deputy Manager role at Supersaurus and this taught me a lot about leadership and how to run a nursery in operations. In 2017 I went travelling around South East Asia, Indonesia and Australia for 4 months, I learnt so much from having this once-in-a-lifetime experience and made memories that would last a lifetime! When I returned back to the UK I went to work in our sister nurseries as a Deputy Manager and was promoted Manager in 2018.
I was then offered to complete my level 2 in Leadership and Management and doing this helped broaden my knowledge in leading a team. I have been Manager at Supersaurus Nursery since August 2021 and I thoroughly enjoyed being back at the nursery where I started this journey, coming into work every day to see all of our lovely children really makes my day that much better!
In 2012 I attended the University of Brighton where I completed a BA (Hons) Education undergraduate degree where I discovered my passion for child development within the early year's sector. I was fortunate enough to have been granted the opportunity to work for Supersaurus in 2015 once graduated and spent my time undertaking further study by completing an NVQ Level 3 in Childcare to enable me to support the children to the best of my ability.
I was promoted to Deputy Nursery Manager in 2017 and engaged in an exciting opportunity to complete my Early Years Initial Teacher Training (EYITT) at the University of Brighton whilst supporting the sister nurseries in both East and West Sussex. I genuinely feel that I am confident within my professional role to use the knowledge I have acquired in my own educational journey to broaden the children’s experiences by providing the staff with the open opportunity to create awe and wonder each and every day with the children!
I really do love the journey a child takes here at our nursery when starting in our baby room and making their way through until they are equipped with the skills and knowledge to enter school life with confidence. It is always such a proud moment knowing they are prepared for the next stage of their life.
