I was your typical anxious Mum bringing my daughter to nursery. I even cried getting the application form whilst speaking to one of the workers. I look back now and wonder why I was so worried! My daughter still has days when she doesn't want to do but there is never a day she doesn't come out smiling
and excited. My daughter starts school in September 2022 and because of the workers at Bright Stars Day Nursery, she is 100% ready. They have been so amazingly friendly and caring, lots of fun whilst learning. Thank you so much Bright Stars you're amazing at what you do.
Reply from Kirsty Wislawski, Manager at Bright Stars Day NurseryThank you for the lovely review, Danielle; we have loved watching your little one grow into the independent little lady she is today!

My little boy has been attending Bright Stars since he was a baby and will be turning 3 years old next month. My son is currently in the toddler room and absolutely adores the girls! They provide some lovely stimulating activities and I always look forward to seeing his photos and what he's been up
to that day. They keep me updated with what he's been up to and set good boundaries and routines, which is important to us. But most importantly, he is happy and we couldn't wish for more. The girls treat him as their own and really do go above and beyond! Thank you for everything you do for our boy. He's coming on leaps and bounds and that's due to everything you guys do with him. So thank you.
Reply from Kirsty Wislawski, Manager at Bright Stars Day NurseryThank you for this lovely review, we have loved seeing him develop into the cheeky little boy he is today!

Anyone who knows my child knows he is a cheeky boisterous, active little typical boy! I was worried about how he will follow the nursery routine and in general. I am so proud of him and the credit all goes to the wonderful team at Bright Stars. The staff at preschool know exactly how to work around
my child and he absolutely loves the staff. He comes home all cheerful and talks about what he has done throughout the day, I can see he absolutely loves it! I am so glad I moved my son from the nursery he used to go to because I think preschool staff have really prepared my son for school. Thank you!
Reply from Kirsty Wislawski, Manager at Bright Stars Day NurseryThank you for this lovely review. I have loved watching him develop and the confidence in him now astounds me! We are all so proud of him!

My little girl has been at Bright Stars for over a year and it has been the best nursery I have found for her, because the progress of her has come along so far with being at the nursery. She loves all the staff and her friends there and comes out with a big smile, all the time.

My daughter attends Bright Stars Day Nursery. She settled in quickly! She attends 2 days and is in the baby room. She looks forward to going in and absolutely loves it there! Staff are really nice, caring and friendly. Keep you updated with daily activities, eating/sleep patterns etc and upload photos.
So happy with the nursery everyone is kind and caring.

Our boy started this nursery in January 2022 after attending two others prior - he loves going there everyday and misses it when he's off! The forest school is probably the best part of the nursery for him as he loves the outdoors!
The staff are all so lovely, friendly, and helpful - our son doesn't
stop talking about them and his peers at home and looks forward to seeing them open the door each morning!

At the minute we are really satisfied with the nursery as my daughter got used to it really quickly I would say, the teachers are really friendly and tell you about your kid what they been doing during the day, what they had to eat when you pick your kid up. I was really happy about the baby room that
they have their parent's pictures in the room so they can see it all the time. My daughter started to talk much more when she started to go to nursery. Overall really happy with the nursery.

I have been sending my son to Bright Stars for 2 months now. The staff are so welcoming, especially the ladies in the Baby room. They always keep me updated throughout the day as to how my son is getting on which is really reassuring while I'm at work. I'm so glad I have sent my baby to this nursery

This is our second year with the nursery, and me and my daughter are satisfied with everything. Even if she attends only one day a week, she can’t wait for when the day comes. Every morning I am waking up to the question, nursery today? The staff are very helpful, and there has always been very good
communication between the staff and the parents. A very good environment for a child.

From registering to everyday communication, we’ve had a positive experience and only had friendly treatment. Upon visiting the nursery I was happy to see how the teachers comfort the babies when they’re upset and the outdoor activities looked like so much fun. Overall, I’m so happy to be sending my
baby here.

My son attends Bright Stars Day Nursery. He loves going there. I've never had any issue with any of the staff meeting my son's needs. He can be quite a hand full at times, but they are so understanding and are always there to help me and my son. All the ladies there are very helpful and so kind. Whenever
I have a question, they are always there to answer it and give me daily updates on my child, so thank you.

We sent our son to Bright Stars and as soon as we knew we were expecting our daughter, our first thought was to send our daughter there. The baby room staff are so helpful and kind. We know how well they look after our daughter as she always smiles as soon as her key worker comes to greet her and is
all smiles when we pick her up. If we have queries or questions, they are always answered promptly and there is never a delay in getting an answer. I can’t thank everyone enough for how well our daughter is looked after.

Review from Rianne B (Mother of Child) published on 31 January 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has only been at Bright Stars Day Nursery for a couple of weeks and when we pull into the car park he gets so excited and runs over to the gate and runs down to his room door. We both get a lovely warm welcome at the gate from his key person who tells me what will be happening in the room
throughout the day activity-wise. I get lovely photos of my little one sent to me of him playing, detailed feedback through the app of what and how much he's eaten, slept and nappies and get very detailed feedback in person when I pick up too. His key person and other staff in the room talk really nice to him and are absolutely amazing at what they do (this clearly shows as my little boy has settled straight away). I can tell he is comfortable with all staff who care for him during the day by the way he acts when he is around them and in the room. We couldn't be happier with the nursery as a whole, everyone is super kind and caring.
Reply from Kirsty Wislawski, Manager at Bright Stars Day NurseryWhat a lovely review Rianne, thank you. Your little one has done amazing at settling in, and we cannot wait for him to transition into the big boy room.

Our baby girl just started this nursery and already has bonded with her key person.

From when my daughter first started at Bright Stars back in September 2021 she has come on leaps and bounds with her development. She has the best relationship with all the staff and I can not thank them enough for all they do for her and for myself. The activities they do to support her development
are amazing, from tuff tray activities to forest school, she adores them all. Highly recommend Bright Stars and I'm so happy my daughter is a part of the Bright Stars family as this is what they are.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.707)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.707) out of 10 for Bright 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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 4.907 for Bright Stars Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 140 Ratings = 4.907
  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 Bright Stars Day Nursery is based on 12 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 = 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 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
