Our spacious nursery has light and airy rooms with a home-from-home feel that helps children to transition from home to nursery with ease. Activities are child-led, and we help your child to follow their curiosity and develop the confidence to explore.

We have three baby rooms, two toddler rooms and an amazing preschool room that supports children in developing their independence. While we integrate the ready for school programme, we also prioritise following each child's learning and development as we uncover their interests. This might revolve around transportation, music, or even exploring the wide variety of loose parts available. Through play and exploration, alongside our practitioners, we foster imagination and growth.

Our Preschool has an early year’s teacher who helps to extend the learning and development of the children based on their interest. We also offer PE sessions, the bright horizons reading scheme and a lending library.

Children embrace exploring outdoors in our beautiful garden, which we are in the process of developing. Pre-schoolers and toddlers have free flow access to their garden. The water wall and cosy wooden tepee are firm garden favourites; and while your child is busy exploring and having fun, we can keep you updated via our Family app. Available for all Bright Horizons parents, this will keep you connected with your child's day-to-day experiences and up to date as they develop during their time with us.

As part of our Eco School accreditation the staff and children, litter pick and grow their own herbs. We have also introduced local walks; this has begun with visits to the local library and will develop based on the interests of our children.
