Bright Horizons Chineham Park Day Nursery And Preschool

About this early years setting

Bright Horizons operates over 300 nurseries and preschools across the UK, offering comprehensive childcare services. Their core philosophy, the Nurture Approach, focuses on integrating learning with emotional well-being to foster happy, healthy children who reach their full potential.

They provide a unique Bright Beginnings Curriculum, emphasising five key learning areas that build practical and life skills. The nursery chain is committed to offering freshly prepared meals, managing allergies diligently, and providing robust SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) support.

Outdoor learning is a significant part of their programme, with access to outdoor spaces, Forest School activities, and Eco-Schools initiatives to enhance child development. Bright Horizons also prioritises smooth transitions for children and families, offering non-chargeable settling-in sessions up to six weeks before a child's start date, aiming to build a strong triangle of trust between the key person, child, and parent/carer.

They also offer guidance and support to families in navigating childcare funding options.
