Wilmington Day Nursery and Preschool

Welcome to Bright Horizons Wilmington Day Nursery and Preschool, where every child’s journey begins with care, curiosity, and confidence. Our passionate team is dedicated to creating a warm, family-feel environment that supports children aged 3 months to 5 years through every stage of their early years.

With an onsite car park, longer opening hours and easy access to the A2, M25, and nearby train stations, we make life simpler for busy families.

Our nursery follows The Nurture Approach, ensuring that every child feels safe, valued and understood. This approach focuses on emotional wellbeing and secure relationships, helping children build confidence and resilience as they learn and grow.

Inside our nursery, you’ll find five thoughtfully designed rooms tailored to each age group, from our cosy baby room with its own private garden to our vibrant preschool space where children prepare for school through structured, play-based learning. Babies benefit from routines that mirror home life, while toddlers and nursery-aged children explore through sensory play, creative activities and outdoor adventures. Our preschoolers take part in our Ready for School programme, building essential skills in literacy, numeracy and independence.

Alongside our core curriculum, children enjoy Boogie Mites music sessions, a dedicated sensory room and a children’s kitchen for hands-on learning experiences. Our two secure outdoor areas offer all-weather play and wildlife exploration, encouraging curiosity and a love for nature.

Parents stay connected through the Bright Horizons Family app, with real-time updates and photos of your child’s day. We also offer flexible settling-in sessions, lending libraries and weekend open days to strengthen the partnership between home and nursery.
