A place to grow
Richmond Day Nursery and Preschool is located close to Richmond Town Centre and we have good transport links into Central London.
The nursery is purpose built offering four well-resourced rooms and a fantastic spacious outdoor space for children aged 3 months to 5 years. We also have our own Literacy Lounge and Discovery Room. Children are well prepared to transition to school with the unique Ready for School Programme including Growing Readers, Writers and Mathematicians programmes.
Our Forest School enables the children to extend their learning into the outdoors where they can grow their imaginations and explore the outdoor environment and we offer a wide variety of extracurricular activities including Spanish lessons, Music and Dance and Sports School.
Our fees include meals and snacks, branded nappies, nappy cream, bottles and formula baby milk as appropriate.

Lauren Owen
I hold a Level 3 Qualification in Childcare and Education and I have worked with Bright Horizons for 3 years. I have a great passion for ensuring that all children within our care are provided with a safe, caring and fun learning environment. I really enjoy working alongside our manager to provide staff with learning opportunities and supporting them to be strong and enthusiastic when delivering care and activities to children. As part of my role I like to ensure that all staff are happy because happy staff results to happy children. As a parent myself I understand how important it is to ensure that your children are happy and safe whilst in their day care environment. It is important for us at Richmond nursery that you have confidence and reassurance knowing that your children are receiving the care and education they deserve to help them grow.
Candy Floss
Hi, my name is Candy Floss, I joined Bright Horizons in March 2010 as the ‘Super Safety Hero’ to help nursery children stay safe and manage risks. My role as a Health and Safety Super Hero is unique to Bright Horizons and I’m in every nursery, 365 days a year.
Back in 2010, I saw a job advert for a Zebra Super Safety Hero – I was very excited, applied and was invited for an interview with several other zebras. We were interviewed by all the children who then voted on which of us would be their Super Safety Hero. It was hoof biting but I was thrilled when they told me I was the most voted for by the children who all loved me because of my cape and bag. My bag is very special, if something fits inside, it’s a choking hazard. You might be wondering how I got my name. The children in our nurseries chose five names and voted for their favourite. I love it as it’s unique, I mean have you ever heard of a zebra called Candy Floss? Exactly!
