Bright Kids Lower Quinton is preparing to return home - not simply to a redecorated nursery, but to a setting that has been extensively renovated, extended and reimagined for local children.
The nursery joined the Bright Kids family in September 2023. To allow the major building work to take place properly, the entire setting temporarily relocated to Stratford Agri-Park, where children continue to be cared for while the transformation is completed. The team is due to return to the Lower Quinton nursery in August 2026.
The new environment has been planned to give each age group space that works for them. Babies will have their own room, milk kitchen and a secure outdoor area. At the same time, toddlers and preschool children will be able to move directly into a dedicated playground with space for digging, a mud kitchen and physical play. A separate growing and sensory garden will create further opportunities to notice, touch, plant and investigate.
Inside, children will encounter real objects, natural materials and open-ended resources that can be used in many different ways. A collection of loose parts might become a structure, a story or an experiment; familiar utensils and crockery help children practise real skills, make choices and take an active role in their day.
Being rural, the natural world will continue to play an important part in children’s learning. Practitioners build from the questions and fascinations children bring, helping them develop language, confidence and new ways of thinking.
Bright Kids Lower Quinton offers year-round care from birth to five, from 8 am to 6 pm, Monday to Friday, for 51 weeks of the year. Sessions and full days are available, with breakfast, hot meals, tea and nutritious snacks provided.
Families are invited to contact the team to discuss current availability, reopening plans and opportunities to visit the transformed nursery.
Bright Kids Lower Quinton has a Review Score of 7.2 (7.151) out of 10, based on 2 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time Bright Kids Lower Quinton has 15 reviews.

Our child attended this nursery before a management change in summer 2024. Following this, communication became unclear, staff turnover was high, and retention continued to be a concern. These changes affected the nursery environment significantly - our previously happy child became increasingly distressed about attending. We also strongly disagreed with the new ethos. Traditional celebrations such as Easter, Mother's Day and Father's Day were no celebrated as they used to be and artwork and creativity was no longer encouraged. When we raised this, leadership stated that "creativity is arbitrary," which confirmed our concerns.
We made the decision to leave, and our child is now thriving elsewhere. While this setting may work for some, it did not meet our expectations or support our child's needs

Fantastic nursery, highly recommend. My little boy has been going to the nursery for over a year now, he took a while to settle in but the staff were so patient with him and did what was best for him to help him settle. They are all so friendly and are happy to chat about any questions or concerns you may have. A good handover is given on collection. Great lunch and tea menus. We love the regular uploads on the app to keep parents up to date with everything the children have been doing.

We are very happy with the nursery, we were getting a little frustrated with the mess our child was getting in during his lunch at the nursery and in turn returning home in but since this has been discussed there has been no further issue. Besides this, we are very pleased with our child's development at the nursery and find the staff very helpful and empathetic when needed both towards our child and us.

Overall Experience
All the staff here are so friendly, caring and welcoming. My children are so excited to go to nursery, that even during the weekends, asking ‘is it nursery day yet’. There’s a good range of activities they take part in, and their development has progressed so much since going here.
Thank you.

Such a great nursery my 2-year-old attends 2 full days a week. We get lovely updates on activities throughout the day and I love that they tailor these for each child to help with their development. My son has grown in confidence and the new skills he has learnt are definitely noticeable. The staff are amazing and I couldn't feel more comfortable leaving him in their care - top-class nursery! - also to note I think the funded childcare introduction was handled really well and was super easy from my side considering all the noise I have heard of people having issues so thank you Bright Kids.

Many thanks to all the staff for their dedication and hard work in making the nursery a fun environment for an older child who is in after school club. You always make me aware when my child is not feeling well and will provide a good handover upon collection.

Overall a great little nursery. Communication and updates via the app are really good and with a regular frequency. Always adapting their activities to the children’s interests that week: right now it’s all about dinosaurs, so all the tactile and engaging activities are adjusted to have dinosaurs in them somehow. Great staff, friendly, reliable and trustworthy. Been to other nurseries in Stratford and the quality here exceeds both.

My daughters have been going to the wrap-around care for 18 months now. The service they offer is a lifeline to parents around this area. The staff are friendly and welcoming. There are always activities to keep the children entertained while they wait and more importantly, even on the days the girls don't attend, the staff still acknowledge them at school if they see them. Also, it's great to see the outside space being spruced up for the summer. Thank you for all your hard work.

Sam has dedicated more than 20 years to working with children and families across a wide range of early years environments, including sessional preschools, school-based provision, after-school clubs and day nurseries. This varied experience has given her a strong understanding of how children’s needs can differ and how important it is to create a setting where every child feels secure, included and inspired.
She began her career by completing a Level 3 qualification in Childcare and Education, before progressing to an HND in Early Years. She then achieved Early Years Professional Status and completed a BA Honours degree in Integrated Services for Children and Families.
Throughout her career, she has worked as a practitioner, room leader, curriculum manager and deputy manager before progressing into nursery management. Each role has strengthened her passion for helping children flourish through play, creativity and meaningful experiences that build confidence, independence and a lifelong curiosity for learning.
Alongside her role as Nursery Manager, Sam is also the Designated Safeguarding Lead and SENCO at Lower Quinton. She is passionate about working closely with families and professionals to ensure every child receives the individual care, understanding and support they need to reach their full potential.
She said: "I am incredibly proud to lead the Lower Quinton team as we begin an exciting new chapter within our newly transformed nursery, creating a welcoming and inspiring environment in which our children and families can truly thrive."

Rachel's Bright Kids journey began in 2019 at Bright Kids Evesham, where she joined the team as a Nursery Practitioner before progressing to Senior Practitioner. In January 2024, she moved to Lower Quinton to take on the role of Deputy Nursery Manager, bringing her experience, knowledge and passion for early years with her.
She holds an NVQ Level 3 qualification in Childcare and Education and has worked within childcare for more than 23 years. Throughout that time, Rachel has developed a deep understanding of how important a child’s earliest experiences are in shaping their confidence, development and enthusiasm for learning.
She is particularly passionate about learning and development and believes children thrive when they are given opportunities to explore, experiment and follow their interests. Through play, imagination and creativity, we can help children build strong foundations while making learning meaningful, exciting and enjoyable.
She said: "I am proud to support our children, families and team at Lower Quinton as we begin this exciting new chapter in our transformed nursery."
