I can’t praise Shining Stars Nursery enough for nurturing, educating and caring for my little one. They are above and beyond five stars. From the settling in session, until now, all the staff have been absolutely incredible to my son. A big thank you to you all, especially to the toddler room teacher
for all the love.

I have three young children who all go to the nursery. My youngest has come on so well with his speech and confidence since starting at the nursery. My two oldest have excelled exceptionally well. The preschool is helping them to get ready for the transition to primary school. The staff overall are
all lovely and caring; it's a great nursery, and I'm very happy with how my children are cared for and how well they have progressed.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started here in Jan at 10-months-old. I was so anxious sending her to what I felt was a fairly large nursery, but the children are divided into sensible age groups, all of which have their own separate indoor and outdoor spaces. The variety of toys and activities are excellent, the sensory
room and climbing frame seem to be her personal favourites, and I love the fact that they take them outside to play at any given opportunity, having their own little forest school area is a fantastic bonus!
The staff greet us in the morning and provide me with a full rundown of what she's been up to when I pick her up in the evening, alongside a daily sheet which tells me what she's been learning, eating, sleeping etc. The staff are really accommodating and caring, giving her required medication as instructed, and of course, some extra cuddles to help her feel better. Since joining, her development has come on leaps and bounds, and I drop her off smiling and pick her up still smiling.

My daughter had been going to Shining Stars since September 2021, and since being there, she's been so confident, so independent, and her talking is now coming on massively! She loves going every day, she's made so many friends, and she adores the staff. The staff have been brilliant, I couldn't fault
them enough! Honestly, they are so helpful, friendly, makes you feel so welcome, and make the children feel safe and happy. I would recommend this nursery to any other nurseries in the area.

Both my children attend this nursery, and I can’t recommend it enough! My children love going, and I’m always kept up to date with their daily activities and their progress. My little boy is in preschool and is learning so many new things, and he’s really getting ready to start school in September;
he’s learning to write his name, the alphabet, counting and phonics, something I feel is really important for them to learn at a young age. The preschool leader is amazing and works so hard to make sure the children are happy; she’s an absolute credit to the nursery. My little girl is in the baby room and loves every minute of the nursery; she’s never once cried going in, right from her first settle session. The baby room work really hard to make sure the babies are stimulated and given the tools to develop their skills. My daughter is always doing different things; they run a weekly theme for the room with specific activities catered to the theme. All members of staff are very caring.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending since September 2021. It was a bit of a rocky road at the start, but the toddler's room made it warm and welcoming for her, and now she’s enjoying herself and leaving me without hesitation. The staff are really friendly, and there is always someone at the other end of
the phone to answer any questions you may have. It is a lovely place for my daughter to attend, not only it is close, but also the team are really good with her. The outdoor space for them is amazing with lots of different activities, and the inside space is brilliant with different rooms for ages. Also, the sensory room is room to look at. The cleanliness of the building is great! My daughter has only had one meal as she’s on 3-hours a day, but she had Christmas dinner this year; she’s a picky eater, but they made her feel so comfortable, and she was able to eat with her friends and everyone else! I’m really glad I found this nursery, as both myself, my daughter and my daughter's dad love it here.

I honestly cannot thank Shining Stars enough. My little boy is suspected of ASD, and they have been so brilliant with him and love him so much. He comes out smiling, and he has come out of his shell due to going to nursery there. The staff are absolutely brilliant, and I cannot thank them enough. We
love you, Shining Stars.

They are there for all his needs and make sure that he gets the help he needs.

I honestly can't thank this place enough! Both my children go here; my son leaves in September, and he's been going to the holiday club, and he always comes home with a smile! When he started pretty late in the year because of us moving, he didn't really talk much, he did some sign language, but that
was it, and now after 7 months, his speech is coming along amazing. Plus, with the holiday club, he's been able to interact with other kids, not just one's his own age, and they do so many different fun activities every day - I don't know where they find all the ideas! Definitely would recommend!

This is the best nursery in the area by far! We wouldn't send our son anywhere else. He started at 9-months-old, and thanks to the staff’s support and love, he has flourished. He has learnt so much, and we get feedback about everything he does.
Thank you, Shining Stars, for being amazing!

I love this nursery. My boy has come on leaps and bounds whilst attending here. He is happy every time he comes, he can't wait for nursery days. Such an outstanding nursery and the staff make it such a wonderfully welcoming place for your children to be. I will miss them all when my son leaves for school
this year.
One last thing, they offer a holiday club during the half terms, which is brilliant as I know it can be difficult to find childcare during the half terms.
Amazing nursery.
Lovely staff.

Both my little girls have been at Shining Stars nursery since 2019, and they have really thrived here. They love going and love all the staff. Each and every single staff member go above and beyond for every child here and care for everyone’s well being, including the cook. They have been so amazing
to me and my children. I trust them all with my girls and couldn’t ask for more; they are so caring, kind and very understanding. They have an amazing manager, who is so dedicated to every child and their well-being. I couldn’t ask for a better nursery/preschool and staff to look after my children.

My daughter loves going to Shining Stars. the staff have always been friendly and approachable, and my daughter, who is 18-months, goes to staff members without any worries. I always have excellent feedback about what my daughter has been up to at nursery, and she always goes in smiling and comes out
the same. I highly recommend other parents to use this child care setting.

A great nursery that bends over backwards to help and accommodate. We have two children with them, and they both love the place and the people, which is the best review anyone can get.
Our youngest has improved in language so much since she has been going.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.950)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.950) 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 5.0 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.950 for Shining Stars Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (267 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 280 Ratings = 4.95
  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 24 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 24 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.
