Bright Horizons Mount Carmel Day Nursery and Preschool

About this early years setting

Bright Horizons Mount Carmel Day Nursery and Preschool is located in Islington, London. It operates all year round, closing for one week at Christmas, with opening hours from 7.30am to 6.30pm, Monday to Friday. An Ofsted inspection in February 2023 found that the provision met requirements. The report noted that as no children were present at the time, no judgement was made on the quality of the early years provision, and the inspection was based on the premises, documentation and discussions with staff.

The inspector noted that staff are trained in safeguarding and paediatric first aid, and systems are in place to manage children's dietary needs. For outdoor activity, children use the nursery's outdoor areas as well as other spaces in the local area. The nursery uses a digital application to communicate with parents and also holds parent evenings. To support children's well-being, the setting uses stories to discuss emotions and is creating a self-regulation space for yoga and sensory exploration.
