Bright Horizons Weybridge Day Nursery and Preschool

About this early years setting

Bright Horizons operates numerous nurseries and preschools across the UK, offering childcare that extends beyond basic care to focus on the holistic development and emotional well-being of each child. Their fundamental approach is called 'The Nurture Approach', which integrates learning with emotional growth, ensuring children are supported by dedicated and skilled practitioners.

The curriculum, named 'Bright Beginnings', focuses on five key learning areas, incorporating practical and life skills through diverse activities. The nursery places a strong emphasis on outdoor learning, offering spaces, Forest School programmes, and involvement in Eco-Schools.

They also prioritise healthy eating with freshly prepared meals, and provide dedicated support for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Understanding the importance of a smooth transition, Bright Horizons offers complimentary settling-in sessions for families up to six weeks before a child's start date, allowing children and parents to become familiar with the environment and build relationships with their key person.
