About this day nursery

Bright Horizons Surbiton Ewell Road Day Nursery and Preschool is part of a larger network of over 300 nurseries across the UK, offering comprehensive childcare solutions for families. Emphasizing a philosophy called 'The Nurture Approach', the nursery aims to foster each child's emotional wellbeing alongside their learning and development.

They focus on creating a supportive environment where children feel safe, known, and loved, facilitated by a dedicated Key Person system that builds trust between the child, parent, and nursery staff. The curriculum is designed around five key learning areas, integrating practical and life skills through diverse activities, including significant outdoor exploration, Forest School programs, and Eco-Schools initiatives.

They also prioritize healthy eating with freshly prepared meals, cater to children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), and offer flexible settling-in sessions to ensure a smooth transition for new children and their families.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

Outdoor space

Staff support children in their physical skills effectively. Outdoors, toddlers roll and kick balls with confidence. Staff build children's confidence as they balance on boards, crates and tyres, and children are encouraged to keep trying. In the garden, staff teach children to wring wet clothing from a water bowl before hanging it on a line using pegs, which helps children to develop their small finger muscles.
