From the moment I entered the nursery, I sensed a warm and welcoming environment which would enable my child to thrive. The staff are so friendly and approachable and are certainly people you can trust to keep your children safe due to their genuine care for each one of them. I’ve also been impressed with the daily updates on my child and the communication as a whole.

The nursery encourages independence, and a variety of activities, foods and environments have all helped shape our daughter's character and imagination. The staff have all been approachable and professional and keep us up to date on all aspects of our child and the nursery in general.

Thank you to all the staff for looking after my son. It’s been challenging for him to settle down, but the staff have been amazing with him. All the effort they make for him to feel comfortable, it’s so important for us parents. Excellent nursery!

They've helped her with her speech, writing and preparing her for primary school now. This is the best Nursery and honestly, I wish they have an extended part for primary school.
Love it!

The meals are so much better than in the last setting, and the twins love dinner time at the nursery. They tell me all about what they've had when they come home.
The girls who look after them (and everyone else who works there) are the loveliest people, the boys adore them, and I trust them completely. Thanks for all you do.
The team will be delighted to hear your feedback!
I can’t thank the staff enough who look after my little boy; they are always so pleasant and supportive. My son is taking a while to settle in at the nursery, but the staff are always so kind and make leaving my son a little easier for myself. The staff in my son's room are very compassionate about their job, and I love when they send me updates throughout the day on what my son is doing and also his progress. All of the staff at the nursery are very polite, welcoming and pleasant.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about your son's care. We are delighted to hear that you are impressed by our staff team. Our team members care deeply for the children, and we believe, as you do, that this shines through. Thanks again; we really appreciate your support.
Shooting Stars have really helped with her development and confidence; she is certainly ready for school now.
All the staff there are great, especially one particular staff member. My daughter talks about them often. All the staff are very welcoming and happy in their workplace, which also makes a difference.
They do lovely activities with the children and have lots of fun in the garden.
I would highly recommend Shooting Stars to anyone!
Thank you for everything you have done for our daughter.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback about your daughter's Early Years journey at Shooting Stars. We would like to thank you for choosing Shooting Stars to care for your daughter and wish you all the very best as she takes her next steps to school.
We always get wonderful little updates on the app on the day that he's in, which clearly shows what skills he's developing whilst playing. The activities are always varied, and he always comes home really happy and absolutely worn out.
They have been amazing at catering to my son's cow's milk protein allergy and have recently helped with a possible additional soy allergy. I don't know how they do it, but my son always eats and really enjoys pretty much everything they give him as well!
The camera is a really lovely little tool as well, as it means I can pop on and have a little look to see how he's getting on throughout the day.
Thank you so much for your kind review. The staff team will be truly grateful to hear how happy you are with your son's care, and most importantly, how clearly happy, settled and flourishing your son is too! Thank you.
Fast forward to now, and he is so different. The girls at Shooting Stars have been absolutely fantastic with him. They’ve been so understanding of his needs and support him when he needs that closeness and care.
They arrange such wonderful activities during the day and have a fab garden space for them to play. The meals he has there are also great, and they often give him second portions; he loves it so much!
We are so grateful we found this nursery, and we no longer dread nursery days spending the whole day worrying.
Thank you!
Thank you for leaving our team such a lovely review. We are delighted that your little boy has settled in so well here with us and that you feel at ease leaving him in our care too, as this is so important. Our team members care deeply for the children, and we believe this shines through in the...
My little boy started Shooting Stars in September last year after looking at a few nurseries. The second we walked in just felt like home. We both have had such excellent experiences since then, and he has formed such a lovely bond with all of the staff in the baby room, and when I say all, I mean the whole nursery. It’s so lovely when we walk in, every member of staff we pass knows his name, and that says a lot about a nursery and staff. Shooting Stars came highly recommended, and I now know why, the care given by all staff, the wide range of toys and experiences they encourage the children to play and get involved with and a gorgeous garden all with an added bonus of nursery cam which is great, I also love how staff have been at the nursery for years, which encourages me that staff love the work environment. As a qualified teacher and working within education and educational settings, I wanted a nursery that really encouraged learning through play, and Shooting Stars does just that.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your lovely feedback, the staff team will be delighted to hear that your family continues to have such a positive experience with us here at Shooting Stars. Thank you.
I was really nervous about sending my daughter to nursery after having a lockdown baby who I’d never been away from. However, I needn’t have worried as Shooting Stars have been amazing! My daughter has attended for 6-months now and absolutely loves her time there. All the staff are wonderful and caring, and it is such a lovely and welcoming place. They have really got to know her little personality, and the updates they provide throughout the day are so lovely. I feel so lucky to have such an incredible nursery so close to home.
Thank you so much for your kind review and for taking the time to leave feedback. The pandemic had the potential to make leaving your child in the care of others even more unsettling, but it is heartwarming to read that the nursery experience has been so positive for your family. Thank you again for your feedback and your continued support.
My son only started nursery in January (when he was 11-months-old) and would get quite upset when I would leave. The girls were so understanding of this, and I never felt rushed to leave him. He's only been going for 6-weeks, and has settled in so well, he no longer cries when I drop him off... he actually can't get in the room fast enough! I have also used the nursery cam numerous times, and I'm always put at ease by seeing how the girls all interact with my son and the other babies in the room. The photos and information which are uploaded through the nursery app are brilliant, as it helps give me an idea of what activities to do at home.
Welcome to Shooting Stars, and thank you so much for taking the time to share your review. It is lovely to read that your son has settled in so well and that our staff team have made this transition so positive for you both. The staff team will be delighted to hear your feedback, as they always...
Our little boy has never got upset at drop off and always seems calm and settled into his routine during the day and the camera is great to check how he is doing occasionally. It is clear that the social interactions he gets and the activities they do have aided his development. The staff in the baby room have been amazing and we are looking forward to seeing how he transitions with his move to the toddler room in the coming weeks.
Thanks, Shooting Stars! We will always recommend you to others.
Thank you for your review, Stephanie; we are delighted that you and your little boy has settled in so well with us, despite the challenges of the pandemic. Thank you for taking the time to write a review, it means a lot to the staff team and management and helps prospective families get a flavour for Shooting Stars. Thank you!
My son has settled in really well and loves going. The staff are really friendly and very helpful if you have any questions or concerns etc. I love that this nursery has a nursery cam as it’s really helped put my mind at ease because every time I log in, I can see that my son is having lots of fun. I would highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you for your review, Chloe. We are delighted that your son has settled in well and enjoys coming to nursery. It’s great to hear that you find the NurseryCam access reassuring and that you find our staff team friendly and helpful. We also appreciate the time you have taken to leave your...
My son has been at this nursery since he was 11-months-old and is currently nearly 2 1/2. I work in Birmingham, so having the nursery cam was an extra reassurance. The nursery team are amazing and very welcoming. They take the time and care to get to know your child and their own little ways of doing things! My son thrives in this nursery environment and really benefits from all the activities they do to aid his development. I am also reassured that he eats healthy, nutritious and fresh meals that are prepared for onsite - another selling point compared to other nurseries. The manager and her wonderful team should be very proud of the nursery they have created.
Thank you for your review Nikki, we are delighted that your son is happy in the care of our lovely, hard-working staff team and is making great progress too! Thank you for your feedback about the variety of activities on offer and our on-site catering - we'll be sure to pass your son's compliments...
I find their communication with us parents is brilliant, using apps to update us on news, events and pictures of our children whilst they are at nursery. Also having the ‘nursery cam’ there when you can check in on them really puts your mind at ease!
Everything, down to the meal plans and the different activities and learning what he does there, I honestly would not change a thing. I would and do highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you Shooting Stars Nurseries at Stourbridge.
Thank you for your review and recommendation, we are delighted that your son is happy in our care and that you as a parent are happy too. It's great to hear you value the EyLog and NurseryCam technologies and that you find our communication effective. We appreciate the time you have taken to leave...
My daughter has been going to Shooting Stars Stourbridge since she was 8-months-old. I viewed a number of nurseries but had such a warm and welcoming feeling when I was shown around; I knew this was the one. The baby room was just perfect, especially for a first-time mom who was very nervous about leaving their little one, they filled me with assurances which made it a lot easier. My daughter is now 3-years-old, and it's been lovely to see her learn and develop through her time at the nursery in the several room settings they offer, which are carefully planned out for the age/development stage. She is now in Pre-School and absolutely loves the place! Loves her nursery days and seeing all her friends and the activities they do, she learns so much on a daily basis. They also have a diary log (an app) so you can see what your child has achieved during their day and learning observations. They have handled the COVID situation amazingly, and the environment is safe and secure. Highly recommend.
Thank you for your review and recommendation Rachel. We are delighted that you have had such a positive experience with us at Shooting Stars and that your daughter is so happy, sociable and at ease in the care of our super staff team, and making great progress too. We also appreciate the time you...
I can’t recommend enough and thank all the staff so much for her development and the care she has received.
Thank you for your review and recommendation, Caroline, we are delighted that your family has had such a positive experience with us at Shooting Stars over the last year. We also appreciate the time you have taken to leave your feedback. It means a lot to all of the staff team and management and helps prospective families to get a flavour for Shooting Stars. Thank you!

Meet the Team (2)
Tracy joined Shooting Stars Nurseries in 2011, at a time when the group had just one nursery setting. She was originally appointed as Deputy Manager at the Stourbridge nursery before stepping into the role of Nursery Manager in 2013. In 2015, she progressed into her current role as Area Manager, bringing with her a wealth of experience from a career in Early Years that spans over 28 years.
Before joining Shooting Stars, Tracy worked across a variety of practitioner, leadership, and senior leadership roles within day nursery settings. Her career also includes time spent as part of a specialist support team working with children who had experienced spinal cord injuries, and she began her journey in childcare as a nanny. Her long-standing commitment to Shooting Stars has made the organisation feel like an extension of herself—she often says it’s as much a part of her as she is of it.
Tracy is deeply passionate about creating magical childhoods that nurture curiosity, excitement, and strong foundations for lifelong success. She has a particular interest in emotional well-being, believing that secure, emotionally enabling environments are essential for children to truly thrive. After many years of hands-on practice, she now channels her passion into supporting teams across the nurseries, helping embed this ethos into the culture of every setting.
Her leadership is rooted in empathy, experience, and a genuine love for early years education. Tracy continues to inspire those around her with her dedication to quality, her belief in the power of nurturing relationships, and her commitment to growing confident, capable teams.

Since 2004, Kully has held a variety of leadership roles, including Room Leader in both Pre-School and Under 2’s, Deputy Manager, and Nursery Manager—spending 16 of those years in management.
These experiences have shaped her deep understanding of early years education and operational leadership.
Kully is particularly passionate about the development of children under two, with a strong focus on building secure attachments and nurturing environments that support emotional wellbeing and early development. She also brings extensive expertise in Health & Safety, SEND, and Safeguarding, which are central to her practice and leadership.
