Both my daughters, now aged 2 & 5 have attended shining stars nursery and loved it from day one. They both would always go running in with a smile. The staff are amazing and have great communication. My youngest has the lunches they provide and seems to really enjoy them and my eldest who no longer
attends asks to go back regularly and all the staff still say hello and remember her when we pick her little sister up which is lovely.

My baby started nursery this year and I was so nervous to send her but my gosh was I silly! The staff are absolutely amazing with her. She was quite difficult in the beginning and cried a lot but they just held her for as long as she needed to be held. It really warmed my heart knowing that my baby
wasn't just another number and that they took care of her like their own. Thank you thank you thank you!

Our daughter with SEN needs has been attending this nursery for a few years. She loves it, she is excited in the morning to go and she runs in without looking back. The staff are amazing and have helped her with her development and ensured that she has all the help she needs by themselves and other
professionals.
The team work is exceptional and we feel that our child is included all the time and cared for.
We are are a two Mummy family and are included in all activities and for Mothers day we each got a card made from our daughter so that was wonderful.
Our daughter has built an attachment to members of staff and they genuinely enjoy talking about her day to us at the end of the day and clearly love their jobs.
The management are fantastic, they are there for any questions that we have or meetings that we need.
We are sad that our little girl starts school in September, but she has had the best start and that has set her up for Primary School.
The best nursery in Malvern 100%

Amazing team! So caring, attentive, and passionate.
We recently moved from France, and it was a big step for our little one (two and a half years old) to join a new country and a new environment. Everyone has been so helpful and supportive. I feel I can trust the people working there.
On top of the
amazing work being done, I really connect with the values of Shining Stars - being inclusive and welcoming to everyone. THANK YOU EVERYONE !

Lovely kind staff who really care about the children. Very good communication from the nursery to parents. The app they use is great. Facilities are good. My daughter loves nursery and has never grumbled about going. She always looks happy to see the staff in the morning and is developing well thanks
to their kindness, care and professional support.

We have only been using the nursery for the last couple months however the nursery workers have been great, super helpful and friendly making me feel confident she is in safe hands. The new venue is lovely and I love reading the notes they leave on what activities and food our baby enjoyed each day.

Shining Stars Nursery always goes above and beyond providing the best care and learning possible for the children really focusing on what they enjoy and their interests.
The staff are approachable and are always happy to help you and give advice to ensure the best for your children.
My daughter has

The new setting is lovely and shows a lot of hard work has been put in to make it cosy and enabling for the children!

My daughter has been going here for 8 months now and loves it. The staff are all lovely, very friendly and approachable and they give good updates as to what the kids have been doing at the end of the day. They have moved settings recently and the new setting is really good with a lovely big play area.
My
daughter has thrived since being here and would not hesitate to recommend.

My little one has attended the nursery for just over a year now, all the staff are lovely and welcoming and always greet with a smile. My little one just walks straight into nursery, without so much as a goodbye.
Its amazing to see how much my little one has developed and how much his confidence has
grown since attending nursery. All the staff are supportive, will answer any questions and suggest ways in which we can support further development at home.
You can clearly see the work that the staff have put into the new location to make it warm and inviting to all, the transition appears to have been seamless; and it fantastic to see all the children happy and playing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter joined shining stars at just 10 months old, we were new to the area so we had to choose a nursery at very short notice. Paul the manager was super friendly and filled us with confidence that we made a good decision.
She loved it from day one. And has always gone into nursery happily
and come home happy.
Now 28 months old and in the toddler room, we couldn't thank the team more for their caring and fun approach. They have no doubt played a huge role in nurturing our daughter over the past 18 months, she's developed so much with her speech, motor skills, humour and kindness.
We really value the support of the shining stars team who are irreplaceable to our family. We couldn't do it without you!

We are delighted with our choice of nursery for our twins. I was apprehensive about them starting nursery as they had only ever been looked after by my husband and me, but they settled in so quickly and couldn't be happier to be handed over to staff when I drop them off in the mornings. They have both
come on leaps and bounds in their development since they started and despite being twins, they are very different, which I feel is recognised and appreciated by the staff. From a practical point of view, we are also really grateful for the flexibility that is offered with term time only places.

My son started at shining stars in January 2026 and we have been nothing but impressed so far. He absolutely loves it here, runs in smiling and can't wait to go. The staff are always so friendly, welcoming & kind. I'm never rushed during handovers and I feel I get all relevant information passed on
to me.
Really happy with shining stars.

I can't honestly thank shining stars enough for everything they have done for my son.
My son has global developmental delay, and from day one they have gone above and beyond to support him in every way possible.
You can see they care about each child as an individual. They have built great relationships
with him and learnt what works best for him and celebrate his progress (no matter how big or small)
They have reassured me every step of the way of his progress and goals and have taken the time to listen to anything that was on my mind.
As a parent, that level of support means more than I can put into words. They have been amazing, compassionate, and so supportive and Shining stars wouldn't be what it is if it wasn't for the incredible management and staff. You can truly see it's more than just a job to them and I'm so thankful to them all for everything they have done to help my son blossom into the happy little boy he is today.

My son started nursery in January and since he has been going he has come on so much. You know he's had a great day when he comes out and he loves going to nursery and seeing the other children. The staff are very friendly and adore my son. They are so understanding about times because of my health.

The nursey have been excellent to our boy, they have been very good are leading and encouraging early learning everyday he goes in.


The friendly environment the staff provide all goes to help our boy enjoy attending and meeting other children and making lots of friends.


The nursery have also been

helping to get our boy eating more, and filling in a daily book of what he has and this is all helpful and very good.


Thank you for all you do.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.942)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.942) out of 10 for Shining Stars Nursery & Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.942 for Shining Stars Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (411 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 434 Ratings = 4.942
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Shining Stars Nursery & Pre-School is based on 37 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 37 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
