Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Happy Stars is the most organised, friendly and educational nursery I have come across. Although the staff place great emphasis on preparing the children for big school by integrating uniforms, school bags and weekend home activities, the children are never pressured but constantly encouraged. The staff
are genuinely happy, polite and show how much they love the children. The management of the nursery is exceptional - extremely well-organised. The parents are encouraged to participate and communicate with the staff and are always kept informed. Excellent processes and due diligence. Truly exceptional and we feel so lucky to have our daughter there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the first moment that I visited this nursery (and I had visited quite a few other nurseries in the area), I liked it straight away and knew that this is where I wanted my then 2 year old son to attend. It has a warm, nurturing and very friendly atmosphere, with a fantastic outdoor play area which
is always open to the children all year round (so they get plenty of fresh air and exercise). It's also great that the food the children eat is freshly prepared and cooked on the premises every day there. The staff are absolutely lovely and very dedicated. I loved their 'settling-in' method, whereby two of the nursery staff visited my son at home just before he started. This was done to familiarise my son with the staff there and facilitate his settling in during the first week, and I think this really helped him (and me!). My son has been there for almost a year now and is very happy there. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Happy Stars is a great nursery that my second daughter is currently attending. All the teachers are very attentive and caring to my daughter's needs. My first daughter also attended the nursery about 4 years ago and the nursery have maintained the same very high standard. I have and would easily recommend
Happy Stars to anyone.

I am so pleased with Happy Stars Day Nursery. My daughter has been attending for over a year now and is very happy at this setting. The staff provide variety in the activities and are attentive to the needs of all children. They celebrate all cultures and help prepare children for school. I am particularly
pleased with the meals provided: freshly cooked every day and a changing menu. The staff are very good at communicating with parents through their website, verbal feedback and a weekly diary. I am very pleased with my choice of nursery. My daughter is great at telling me about her day and is a "teacher" when she comes home. I know from this she enjoys her time there.

From the moment we entered Happy Stars we knew it was a nursery that we could trust to take care and nurture our son. It has a warm atmosphere and all of the staff evoke love and dedication to the children. It has a wide range of activities and facilities to stimulate, and healthy home cooked meals.
Our son runs in with excitement when we drop him off in the mornings.

We could not have been happier with Happy Stars, who provided excellent care for our child. The manager and all staff are highly professional, caring and approachable. The quality of the learning environment and activities is superb, and staff always welcome children's views and ideas and encourage
children to develop their interests. The nursery has a wonderful outdoor space , and the whole nursery environment is stimulating and creatively arranged. Communication with parents is very strong, and we always had a clear sense of how our child was getting on, and our input was listened to. Our son always came home smiling and happy, and his confidence grew enormously during his time at Happy Stars.

A very warm environment where the children are extremely happy to be. The staff are always polite and take the time to be informative about the day the children have had. The nursery is run efficiently and I believe it is good value for money.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.790)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.790) out of 10 for Happy Stars Day Nursery Ltd 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.990 for Happy Stars Day Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (95 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.99
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Happy Stars Day Nursery Ltd is based on 8 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.8
    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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 8 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.
