Review of Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley from Janelle L (Mother of Child) published on 4 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our twin daughters have attended Shooting Stars Nursery since they were 18 months old and are now leaving for school in August. They have both progressed so much during their time there, from learning to walk to becoming confident little girls. Most importantly, they've always loved going to nursery.

One of our daughters has SEN needs, and the support from the staff has been amazing. SENCO has been especially fantastic, helping us through the EHCP process quickly and smoothly. Without her guidance and support, we would have felt completely lost.

The staff go above and beyond for the children and families, and we'll always be thankful for everything they've done for our daughters. We highly recommend Shooting Stars to any parent looking for a caring, supportive, and nurturing environment for their children

Reply from Hollie Higgins, Marketing at Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. It has been a privilege to watch your daughters grow from toddlers taking their first steps into the confident young girls they are today. We are delighted to hear how much they have enjoyed their time at Shooting Stars.

Thank you also...

Overall Experience

We absolutely love this nurser our daughter is so happy there, and it's clear she is very well cared for. The staff are incredibly kind, friendly, and genuinely attentive. She is learning so much and developing strong early learning skills, which has been wonderful to see. The whole environment feels warm, welcoming, and nurturing. Her progress since starting has been truly remarkable, and we couldn't be happier with our choice.

Review of Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley from Sean P (Father of Child) published on 27 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with shooting stars. From day one, the staff have been absolutely fantastic, so warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children's development and wellbeing. It's clear that they truly care, and that gives us real peace of mind every day.
The facilities are excellent, clean, well-organised, and full of engaging activities that keep the children learning and having fun. Shay has come on so much since starting, and it's a credit to the environment and the team.
We really appreciate the regular updates at pick-up, where staff take the time to talk through Shay's day. It makes such a difference feeling involved and informed. On top of that, the occasional updates and photos on the app are a lovely touch-it's great to get those little glimpses into what they've been up to during the day.

The nursery's strong Ofsted rating is well deserved and clearly reflected in everything they do. We'd highly recommend it to any parent.

Review of Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley from Adele P (Mother of Child) published on 25 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Very very happy with Shooting Stars Hinckley!
Our daughter is always excited to go in and talk to the staff and her friends. We have even added on a day just because she loves it so much. We can see a massive difference with her speech (vocabulary mainly) and confidence in herself.
Staff are super friendly and very supportive and mirroring our own routines in nursery. Our daughter is now 99% dry (accidents happen-she is only 2!) after them following our potty training routine.
Her room staff is also very empathetic and comforting (I have seen them giving her a cuddle when she was upset and that's exactly what she needs when she is sad).
Handovers are thorough and we get a daily dairy online to see what she ate and what activity they did that day. Cameras are also available to check on her while she is in nursery. Very useful!
I am so happy we have chosen Shooting Stars and I genuinely rave about them to anyone who asks.

Very very happy, can't fault them at all!

Overall Experience

The girls at the Nursery in Hinckley Baby Room since my little girl joined have been nothing but personable, caring and considerate for her needs. It makes me feel at ease when I drop her off and they're there to greet her. At pick up they seem excited to tell me about my little girls day, showing they genuinely care and remember the little details about her day. They've made our experience so much more enjoyable and they deserve the recognition!

Review of Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley from C C (Mother of Child) published on 3 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
From visiting this nursery in December 2023, we knew that the smaller, home from home feel would be ideal for our son who gets easily overwhelmed.
Fast forward to September 2024 and our initial impressions were not wrong. Our son was at first very distressed and it took him a while to settle. The staff were so compassionate, reassuring and patient, not to mention persistent! Their hard work paid off and he has now formed an amazing bond with his key worker!
Since September he has developed so well and we've loved seeing him engage in the varied activities. The staff encourage the children to engage with new sensory stimuli and they thoughtfully plan activities to suit their interests. This is timely communicated on the app. The facilities are engaging - my son loves the sensory room! The menu is also incredible, he eats so well each day!

Picking a nursery is a difficult decision but this one gets five Shooting Stars! The staff genuinely care about the children. It was the best decision we made!

Reply from Hollie Higgins, Marketing at Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley

We're so pleased to hear how well your son has settled and how much he's grown since joining us.

Overall Experience

Our first experiences of the nursery since our child started in Sep 24 have all been excellent. We have been impressed by the friendliness of all the staff and our baby's development has been amazing so far. He loves going to nursery and spending time there. We are also impressed by the transparency of the daily updates provided on the app and the ability to check on our child via nursery cam. Overall, we are very pleased and hoping for the excellent service to continue.

Review of Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley from Keegan S (Mother of Child) published on 27 November 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Shooting Stars at Hinckley are exceptional. Their manner, dedication, support and facilities embody everything you could ever wish for in a childcare provider - and more. They are the fourth nursery I've experienced and by far the highest standard. My child cannot wait to attend, having formed strong bonds with all the staff and being given opportunities to develop in a fun and engaging way. Whether it's messy play, song time, outdoor exploration or meal times, he loves every minute. The staff relationships with parents is also outstanding, always greeting with a smile, personalising interactions and showing that nothing is ever too much trouble. I 100% recommend Shooting Stars.

Review of Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley from Hannah R (Mother of Child) published on 27 November 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I cannot rate this nursery enough!
Being a very nervous parent to twins, one of which has complex health needs, it was really important to find the right nursery for us all!
From the minute I set foot in Shooting Stars for our look around I immediately felt at ease. We had to look at the nursery of two very different children's perspectives. The nursery catered for both above and beyond.

We had our first stay-and-play where we were able to stay and talk to all the practitioners which also put our minds at ease. I told them all about my worries and concerns to which they listened and reassured me. With my daughter, I was concerned about how the other children and about the environment she would be in. I explained my concerns and on my second visit, it was clear that all my concerns had been listened to and they had put fantastic plans into place. The equipment and activities they have for both of my children are fantastic. Would recommend it to everyone.

I couldn't be happier with the care provided at Shooting Stars Hinckley. The staff are professional and clearly love what they do. My son absolutely loves going to nursery and has a great bond with the girls that take care of him. Also, shout out to the chef too - food is a big thing in our household and my son eats so well at nursery - the menu is healthy and varied and similar to the meals we would serve him at home.

I would highly recommend this childcare facility to friends and family.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Shooting Stars now since she was 9 months old, she’s now 2.4 years old and still loving being at nursery. I feel like Shooting Stars Hinckley really focuses on childhood development and offers great learning opportunities for my daughter. She thoroughly enjoys going to nursery and can’t wait to tell me what she’s got up to at nursery when I pick her up. The large rooms with lots of different resources for my daughter to explore and great garden space offer her plenty of room to run around and enjoy herself outside which she thoroughly loves! The staff are always really happy and polite when we’re around and give great feedback on my daughter’s day which is really reassuring to hear. Highly recommend.

Review of Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley from Jonathan I (Father of Child) published on 28 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We are so happy with the care our little boy has at Shooting Stars. Every day he goes into nursery happy and excited for the day. He has made lovely relationships with staff and has made friendships with other children in his room. His transition between rooms has been seamless and all anxiety about leaving him at nursery quickly disappeared. We know our little boy is loved when he goes to nursery and he has the best opportunities given to him to help him develop. The seasonal menu is incredible and he always finishes his meals or second servings. The menu at Shooting Stars is nutritious and similar to what he eats at home. It's all cooked in-house by their chef, who our little boy always waves at in the morning at drop-off.
All the staff are very kind and welcoming and will take the time to explain things more thoroughly if needed, e.g. funding. The resources are fantastic and the garden is fantastic.

We are very happy with our choice of nursery!

Reply from Hollie Higgins, Marketing at Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley

Thank you for your review of our setting, staff team and catering too - we'll be sure to pass your son's compliments to the chef!

Review of Shooting Stars Nurseries at Hinckley from Laura D (Mother of Child) published on 7 December 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We’re so happy with our choice to send our daughter to Shooting Stars. The staff have been nothing but amazing throughout every transition.
My daughter adores everyone in her room and has made some great friends.

My favourite thing about Shooting Stars is the amazing menu they have for the children. They provide high-quality, nutritious, diverse food every day. They all sit together and eat the same thing which has really helped prevent any picky eating issues. My daughter consistently eats 2-3 plates of every meal - including the veggies! Couldn’t be happier with Shooting Stars and would recommend it in a heartbeat. So grateful for the tireless work all the staff members put in, from the people in the rooms to management, and everyone else who keeps it running smoothly. Thank you for everything you do!

Highly recommend this nursery. I have two children who both attend/attended here and would not go anywhere else. My eldest left preschool in August and my youngest has just started in baby room at 7 months old. The staff are extremely friendly, they really care and look after the children individually, building a very special bond. The rooms are clean and full of so many resources for the children to play with. There is a variety of food and my eldest always loved the food she was given!
