We believe in a higher standard of childcare and early learning.
Brightling Academy was founded and is still run by two elementary school teachers who recognize the value of child-centred early-years education on later success.
We see the potential of every child in our care, and know we can’t help them reach it without building meaningful relationships with them and their families. Brightling parents have peace of mind, knowing their child spends their days with our hand-picked, nurturing team of caregivers who are educated in childcare and early learning.

Play and learning go hand-in-hand at Brightling
