We take children from 12 months to 5 years.
Play is the most effective tool for early learning, particularly for children aged 12 months to 5 years. It is the child’s ‘work’ and should be respected for its powerful impact on their social and intellectual development. Our curriculum is delivered through a wide range of play activities, offering opportunities for both child-initiated and adult-led play. Spontaneous play is shaped by the available resources and the indoor/outdoor environment. Staff often interact with children during these activities to help extend and enrich their learning experience.
At the heart of our setting is a dedicated, passionate team of caring practitioners who create a nurturing and stimulating environment where every child feels valued and supported. Our team members are fully qualified or working towards recognised qualifications. All team members are DBS checked and trained in paediatric first aid.
Children have free-flow access to the outdoor area, allowing them to explore the world around them through child-led play.
We believe that parents are the first and most important educators in their child’s life. By working hand in hand, we build strong relationships that support each child’s learning, nurturing development and self-confidence.
Every child is unique, and we celebrate their individuality. We create an inclusive, adaptable environment where all children feel valued, supported and able to reach their full potential.
You will be invited to parent consultations with your child’s key person at intervals throughout the year. These consultations provide a more formal opportunity to discuss and celebrate your child’s progress and consider the next steps in their learning. We will also speak with you informally about your child and always welcome your questions and comments.
Our little one absolutely loves going to BLM, he struggled intially as this was his first experience in a day care, however Nancy, Leah and Mollie have looked after him well, from crying his eyes out during drop offs, to not wanting to leave nursery during pick up, he absolutely loves going there, engaging in creative activities and play, he has developed in many aspects including his speech and social skills, I can’t thank Nancy and team enough, they are absolutely amazing
My Son has been attending now for around 10 ish weeks, he absolutely loves going to see his friends, the ladies are so brilliant with him, he always has a big smile on his face when I drop him off and the same with collection. I love the fact that they go on little outings and spend a lot of time doing messy play also being outside in the garden when the weather allows. The sessions are really really flexible too. We love bright little minds and would recommend them to anyone
My daughter 3 years, has attended the broadwater setting for around 3 months now. she has loved it from the first session. she loves the staff they are often playing games and reading to the children. my daughter loves dressing up which they have plenty of. she is always happy to go in.
Bright Little Minds Childcare has just opened in Broadwater. My daughter had some settling in sessions before Christmas and this morning ran in with a huge smile on her face. This is down to the caring, friendly staff and the way they have made her feel at home from day one. They have created a stimulating learning environment for free play and it has a real family feel to it. There are quiet areas, outside space and plenty of messy play activities too. I’m excited to see my little one progress and flourish as she starts this exciting part of her life at pre-school for the first time!
Our 3-year-old son M, absolutely loves this nursery, and so do we! From day one, the staff have been nothing short of amazing—so warm, caring, and genuinely invested in the children’s happiness and development.
Fantastic nursery so warm and welcoming. My son started just a few hours this morning and was so happy and content he didn’t want to leave
