My child loves going to this nursery, he gets very excited as we arrive. The staff are wonderful, build great connections with children and are highly engaging. You get a full run down of their day when your child is handed over which I love. Food is also amazing, home cooked meals and snacks provided, which my son loves and often has seconds! I highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear how much your son enjoys Bright Horizons Shoreham-by-Sea, especially the meals and daily experiences. Thank you for your recommendation.
When our daughter joined at 2.5 years old after we relocated to Shoreham, we were anxious about moving her from a nursery she'd loved since she was a baby. The team immediately put us at ease with a thoughtful settling-in session, taking time to understand her likes, dislikes, and needs. She settled in far quicker than we expected, and the staff not only comforted her but also supported us as parents. The activities are fun, engaging, and educational, and she comes home every day excited to share something new she has learned. It's clear the team are passionate about their work and genuinely love seeing the children thrive. We're so impressed with the care, enthusiasm, and dedication shown, and we will definitely be enrolling our next child too!
Thank you for your wonderful review. We're so pleased your daughter has settled so happily at Bright Horizons Shoreham and that you've felt so supported as a family.
Both my little boy and myself love this nursery. Staff are super lovely and approachable! Staff are always happy to answer questions, and are a genuine joy to talk to. The feedback on pick up is always detailed. Food is always good!!
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're so pleased you and your son love Bright Horizons, and that our caring team and food are appreciated!
The staffs energy, the environment and teaching methods are great. The manager's work integrating with the local care home has been amazing and drives a great sense of community. Facilities are spacious and clean.
Food is good, alternate offerings can be poor ('boring') with dietary requirements.
The issue I have with it is that it has always been heavily profit driven by the previous owners and now Bright Horizons. Although they are making a huge return on the nursery, they without fail continue to put their prices up over and beyond a reasonable amount. The high turnover of staff suggest that the fees are going straight into the owners pockets and not the staff's which is the reason the parents go here.
Management has to deal with high staff turnover meaning that children and parents will often see new faces.
Thank you for your feedback and for being part of Bright Horizons for the past five years. We're pleased to hear that you've had positive experiences with our staff, teaching methods and the sense of community we've built, particularly with the local care home. We understand your concerns about...
The nursery is spotless and inviting, with a fantastic garden for outdoor play. The food menu is varied and freshly cooked on-site. There is an impressive range of activities, and detailed progress reports offer invaluable insights into my daughter's development with suggestions on how to continue outside of nursery. Communication on the app is hassle-free, and pictures are regularly uploaded so I am always kept in the loop.
The staff have all been incredibly welcoming and also taken time to get to know my son who comes along before school. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any parent seeking exceptional childcare.
Thank you for your glowing review! We're thrilled to hear how much your daughter has thrived in our care. It's wonderful that you appreciate our environment, activities, and freshly prepared meals. Thank you for your recommendation.
The staff are lovely and so friendly, would recommend to anyone!
Thank you for the kind words! We're delighted to hear your daughter is thriving and that you appreciate the updates and fresh meals. Thank you for your recommendation!
Would highly recommend in enrolling your kid here.
Thank you for the great review! We're glad to hear your child is thriving and enjoying our nursery. We appreciate your recommendation.
Couldn’t be happier to have chosen this nursery for my daughter! The staff are so lovely and friendly and my daughter is obviously extremely happy and well looked after here. She settled in so quickly thanks to the amazing settling-in structure. The app is great and is updated regularly throughout the day which I love to keep up with! The nursery is always extremely clean and they feed the children well with fresh cooked food. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting and enjoys herself every day! We’ve moved further away and wouldn’t even dream of changing nurseries. My mum who has put 3 children through nursery always even comments on how great this nursery is to me after she’s picked my daughter up and they include such thoughtful details to make cards and presents for family members without you having to ask. Very grateful to all the staff who look after my baby so well!
Thank you for your lovely review! We're thrilled that you've had such a positive experience with our nursery for your daughter. It's touching to hear that your daughter enjoys herself every day and that you've chosen to stay with us despite moving further away. Thank you.
They have both attended since they were around 1 year old and they both thrived in the environment.
They have both such a strong bond with the staff and have made such lovely friends.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience with the team.
All the facilities are great.
Thank you for your five-star feedback and for sharing your experience with us.
All the staff are so friendly and know all the children well.
The app gives lots of information throughout their day and is really easy to use.
Would recommend to any friends and family.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback and for recommending us!
My daughter has attended Bright Horizons for just over 2.5 years. She has always been happy ensuring they have a safe, fun environment. The premises are kept to a high standard and they have the luxury of a fabulous outdoor play area. The food is cooked on-site to a high standard (it would be better if they had rotated the menu like they used to). Overall, I am very satisfied with the care that is provided and feel very positive for my son joining next month.
Hello! Your thoughtful feedback about our nursery is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
We’ve taken 2 children through this nursery and have been very happy with the overall care and attention paid to both of our children. The staff have been extremely attentive to the kids needs and have nurtured expected milestones very well while keeping us informed along the way. The staff are second to none.
My son is very happy at nursery and enjoys his time at Bright Horizons. The deputy manager and one other staff member, in particular, are great and always keep us informed with how he is getting on. My son talks about the friends he makes and the activities he takes part in. His favourite part of nursery is the garden.
We have had a really positive experience with our daughter changing nurseries and starting here. She loves going to nursery and her days are always full of fun. The staff are all really lovely and give daily updates.
Thank you for letting us know how pleased you are with our nursery. Once again, thank you very much for taking the time to review us.
Our daughter loves it so much, and can’t wait to go back. They learn something new every day. Her speech improved a lot since going to nursery. Nice variety of meals, even though she is a fussy eater there is always something for her to eat with every meal.
Hi, thanks so much for sharing your experience with us. We are thrilled your daughter has now settled into the nursery and is thriving.
We are so thrilled with our experience of the Shoreham by Sea, Bright Horizons. The staff are so kind, caring and attentive to our baby's needs. The communication on drop off and pick up is so helpful and being able to see what she has been up to on the app is ideal. The manager is wonderful and personable and we feel reassured sending our baby in.
Hello, thank you so much for your positive feedback!
Lovely nursery. Staff are really great with the kids. My child has a great time every day. The outdoor space is amazing so being able to run around all day is ideal for my now pre-schooler. Good balance between lovely activities for the kids and just letting them play with their friends.
This is such a lovely nursery. Really personal and dedicated care for the kids. My child has major food intolerance issues and needs a highly specialised diet, which I worried would be difficult when sending him to nursery. But the whole team have been so helpful and supportive, cooking him his own individual meals. Can't thank them enough.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. It is wonderful to hear that your son is thriving in our nursery.
This nursery is exceptional, I'm so happy I chose Happysaurus for my daughter, having attended from 10 months old she's learned so much and always looks happy at pick up, babbling about her day. The cameras that can give me a peek into her day are a lovely idea - although I trust her keyworker entirely. It's always so lovely to see her having fun and playing with friends. Thank you Happysaurus.

Meet the Team (2)
With over 13 years of dedicated experience in early years education, Nikki has risen through the ranks from an apprentice to a manager. She is deeply passionate about early childhood development and takes great joy in witnessing children learn and progress through the various stages of their lives. Her comprehensive understanding of how children's brains develop has been further enriched by raising her own daughter, who also attends the setting with her.
Throughout her journey, Nikki has held positions as a team leader, assistant manager and now a manager. Her hands-on experience and commitment to fostering a nurturing environment have been instrumental in creating positive and enriching experiences for children. She believes in supporting parents by providing them with the reassurance that their babies are in capable and caring hands. Her goal is to ensure that every child's experience is not only safe but also filled with opportunities for growth and learning.
Rachel began her career in the childcare sector in May 2012. In the early stages of her career, she completed her Level 3 apprenticeship qualification. This role allowed her to develop her understanding and knowledge of children and young people, focusing on how they learn and develop, and what childcare practitioners can do to provide an enabling environment. The goal is to stretch and challenge the children in her care to reach their full potential while ensuring their safety and meeting their care needs.
She is a strong believer in helping children and her team develop a growth mindset, encouraging each child to think independently and critically while building the resilience to persevere in all they do. A wide range of early years theories are used to support children's learning through play. Alongside this, she helps children develop school readiness by fostering independence within the setting so that by the time they leave, they are prepared for their new journey in school.
