A purpose built spacious and light nursery in Crawley

There is so much to see, explore and learn at our Bright Horizons Crawley Day Nursery and Preschool. Our team of enthusiastic and long-standing staff strive to provide the very best childcare and early education for children aged 3 months to 5 years. The nursery offers onsite parking and excellent transport links to Three Bridges station.

We understand how important it is for you that your child's transition from home to nursery life goes as smoothly as possible. Our nursery in Crawley has six spacious rooms that offer a warm, nurturing environment from our youngest babies all the way to our preschoolers.

Your baby will have the opportunity to learn and grow through sensory play in our safe and cosy baby room. Our under 2s rooms encourage your child to be creative as they begin to develop their daily routines.

In our toddler rooms, your child will have access to their own toilet area to practice potty training. Preschoolers will love spending time in their room and having free flow access into their garden, where we encourage independent play, allowing them to grab hold of exciting learning opportunities.

Meals are also important at our nursery. Your child will enjoy delicious meals prepared freshly by our onsite chef. With our chef, the children will become budding chefs, thanks to our fully functioning children's kitchen, where your mini foodie will learn how to prepare delicious, healthy food.

The extensive landscaped garden has three separate age-specific play areas to ensure your child gains the most enriched experience. And 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.

Book your tour today to see our nursery for yourself.

Nursery Fee Calculator

Our calculator enables you to estimate your basic fees BEFORE childcare funding is applied. We’ve taken this approach as funding is dependent on your own very individual situation, how old your child is, where you live, whether you’re working, or you get discounts from your workplace.

Our comprehensive funding guides provide guidance on what funding you’re likely to be eligible for, we can send this to you after you’ve estimated your fees.

When you visit us, we can also help you understand your options and work out what your net fees will be after any childcare funding is taken into account.

Estimate your fees

Oops! We appear to be having a few technical challenges! Our team is working hard to get our fee calculator back up and running soon as soon as possible. Thanks for bearing with us.

In the meantime, if you need some answers or to book a nursery visit, then please call us on 01293 226 919, our friendly team is here to help.
