Review from Aimee G (Mother of Child) published on 20 January 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending Little stars Day Nursery since September 2017. He has built up amazing friendships and relationships with both staff and other children. I have noticed his confidence in completing tasks and trying new things has increased since attending the nursery. He consistently does new
things and says new things on a daily basis that amazes us and can only be factored down to the nursery having such a positive impact in his life.
He still finds it hard at drop offs but there are certain members of staff he has built up amazing relationships with, who take him off and make him feel comfortable to leave me. I am currently pregnant and feel strongly about sending my new addition when needed, to this nursery also.

Review from Kimberley F (Mother of Child) published on 20 January 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All the staff at the nursery are amazing. They have been very supportive of my son, who has some delayed developments, including speech.
The facilities for the kids to learn and both educational and fun.
My son particularly loves the mud kitchen and the water stations. He has come on leaps and bounds,
especially thanks to his key worker!
The staff at the nursery have been very supportive in attaining the extra help that my son needs in regards to his development. My son can be quite challenging at times, and they deal with it so well in a way that empowers him and helps him settle. Can't recommend them enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery has been excellent. My child is a special needs child, she needed a lot of support in different areas, such as eating, behaviour and sensory support. This nursery provided me with so much support on getting the right help my child needed. They have supported my child since she was 1 1/2
years of age and are still supporting her now. I am very thankful and appreciate everything this nursery has helped me with.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.498)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.498) out of 10 for Little Stars Day Nursery 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 14 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 4.911 for Little Stars Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (157 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.911
  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 4.587 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Stars Day Nursery is based on 14 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 = 3.85
    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 95 number of registered child places is 19. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 19 = 0.737
  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.

”Hi, I am Lucy. I have been working in the Early Years sector for almost 11 years. I hold a BA Hons in Early Years, for which I studied alongside my work. I love to work with children and their families, offering a supportive and nurturing environment for their little ones to develop and grow. I believe working in Early Years should be fun and joyful; it is one of the best jobs in the world! I joined Stars Day Nurseries in February 2020, and I moved to work at Little Stars in the summer of 2024. I thoroughly enjoy my job, working with some amazing and inspirational people. ”
