Day Nurseries Owned by Bright Stars Nursery Group Ltd in West Yorkshire

Leeds Montessori school and day nursery is an excellent day care provider. The manager and staff alike are friendly, kind and welcoming and children have the opportunity to learn through play and experience. The nursery has recently undergone an extensive refurbishment which has enhanced the environment considerably. The neutral tones of the decor throughout the building has helped to create a calm and cosy environment for the children which gives a home from home feeling.

Leeds Montessori was home to my 11 year old child for 3+ years and I know how special and unique the space is so I have sent my 1 year old child. From suspected to confirmed allergies/dietary/neurodiversity, the management team and staff have been exemplary and I am very happy with how things have been handled and love my "National Tea Day", vegan goody bag too and the fact dietary is honoured.

Excellent Nursery, great care for my son he always comes home talking about his key workers and how happy he has been. Good communication through the app always kept up to date. Great variety of food throughout the day and nutritious.

The nursery is amazing in all aspects. My daughter currently attends but I have sent all 3 of my other children there who have now moved on to primary and secondary school. This shows how much of an attachment I have to the nursery and how much I value it. The nursery is supportive with my child's needs and requirements. They have great communication and give plenty of feedback when requested. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and caring. The nursery setting itself I have always admired and they are continuously improving to adapt to the current climate. The facilities inside are outstanding and varied. And the garden is so lovely and my daughter loves it. I cannot praise the nursery enough and I can only thank them for helping all my children with the start they needed before starting Primary School.

Our children are thriving at Leeds Montesorri, and I'd recommend it to other parents. There is frequent communication on the app and the staff all care about the children with great updates at the end of the day. There is also a good amount of extra curricular activities, Spanish is a household favourite!

My kiddo loves it in the under 2's. Every day is full of thoughtful, fun activities that support his learning and development. We're leaving in the New Year due to a house move, and I know he's going to miss his key workers enormously.

Overall, it's a great setting that I'm happy to recommend.

Our daughter has been with Montessori since May and we have had a very positive experience. Charlotte and Dayna are great. They are professional but so loving and caring towards our daughter. We have been really lucky that Charlotte and Dayna are my daughter's key workers. She loves going into nursery and we as parents feel very relieved that she is in good hands. Charlotte and Dayna are trustworthy, reliable and know exactly what they are doing.

My daughter's been here for 3 years during. The nursery went through a rough patch 18 months ago but it has now turned it around, communication with parents has improved and new management are incredibly engaging and responsive.

One thing never changed - level of care, attention and support she's received from staff. She's happy to be in nursery and loves her key workers. Staff take the time to get to know your child as an individual which is very reassuring.

Best bits:

~ increased parent engagement (e.g. Halloween parties)

We're so happy with the direction the nursery is heading in that we've started our 1 year old there in October.

We've attended Leeds Montessori since May 2024. Despite initial staff changes and disruptions, the team is now steady.

Our two-year-old runs into nursery, which is reassuring that he is loving the environment. Especially the bilingual Spanish sessions on Tuesdays.

The location is superb for trips to roundhay and the outside play area is brilliant. Menus are frequently updated for great nutrition. We would appreciate it if the meat options considered our non-Halal religious background.

We are so pleased with our son's development and we have constant updates and parents evenings to keep in touch. We have already signed our three-month-old up for next year!

It is a little steep for the amount per month despite the goverment funding. But the staff here have shown their dedication and have even taken into consideration to help with extra sessions if extra childcare is required. I am happy to entrust my son into their care and gives us peace of mind that he is looked after.

Each day the food is different and he has already learnt so much here. Now crawling and standing my boy is very happy.

We had a parents' forum meeting today with management team. It was very reassuring to see how much the nursery has improved since the recent changes have been implanted and also how there are ongoing plans for further development. My wife and I are very happy in general with the progress our 2 years old girl is doing both from social but also development perspective. Looking forward for next meeting!

Staff are lovely and helpful.

She sometimes doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day, she likes it that much.

We have been incredibly impressed with Leeds Montessori Nursery since our child started in the Baby Room at just 1 years old. Staff went above and beyond to make sure our little boy was happy and settled. As a very anxious parent staff undated me and ultimately made sure we were fully informed on every account. There is a great reassurance, love and care which runs throughout the nursery, and all members of staff are very caring and engaged. The ethos of being outside and learning actively was important to us. With outdoor learning being so important it is brilliant to see how this is effectively used and loved by our little boy. Our now toddler is happy and settling making great relationships with other children and staff. When staff know your child inside out and can ensure they are happy, safe and learning that reassurance us we definitely picked the right nursery for us as a family.

Leeds Montessori is an excellent Nursery, we hold the employees in high regard and have always been grateful for their hard work and above-and-beyond attitude. The staff are the heart of the nursery and both our children have thoroughly enjoyed their time there, making a great deal of friends. We feel Leeds Montessori has given our boys the best start in life and will always be thankful for the care and early years education they have received.
