Located in the University Parkway Science Park in Southampton, close to local bus routes and with a safe drop-off area for those driving.

Throughout our age-focused rooms, where we provide the best start to schooling life through our enriching and wellbeing-focused Bright Beginnings Curriculum, designed by our own Early Years specialists. This holistic yet personal approach supports each child's wellbeing, development, and progress, whether that involves transitioning between rooms or preparing for school.

Whilst your child is settling with us, we offer as many settling in sessions as we feel your child may need, we build these up gradually and aim to cover most transitional times that occur during a typical nursery day to ensure your child feels safe and secure during these times when they start with us.

Babies is a nurturing environment which benefits form its very own garden ensuring those younger children who may not be on the move yet are always catered for during their time with us.

Toddlers benefit from a smaller room with fewer children enabling that all important adult interaction and have free flow access onto the larger garden. Nursery room is a language rich environment where children are encouraged to be independent and express their personality.

Moving into the Pre-School room school readiness is the focus here alongside our open-ended approach to play.

All rooms have free flow access into the garden where the learning is extended yet still very much focused on outdoor exploration, with mud kitchens, potion stations and large loose parts as part of the continuous provision.

While your child is busy exploring and having fun, we can keep you updated via our Family app. Available for all Bright Horizons parents, this will keep you connected with your child's day-to-day experiences and up to date as they develop during their time with us.
