I am glad that I have found a place in Kirsty's Little Treasures for my daughter; they are so caring, flexible and understanding. I highly recommend this nursery if you are looking to join children in one of the best nurseries in this area.

Kirsty's Little Treasures has been such a huge part of our life for the past eight years, with both of our children attending largely full-time. The setting has such a lovely family-friendly atmosphere with a real buzz of friendship, happiness and calm. The staff at Kirsty's Little Treasures are second
to none; they have supported not only my children but also myself through tricky times, provided a patient and loving approach to our children and have helped them thrive socially, emotionally and developmentally.
Kirsty's Little Treasures have incredible communication and relationships with families, nothing is ever too much for them, and they go above and beyond to meet the needs of the children. The staff are enthusiastic, fun and kind, and this is infectious. My children have absolutely loved every moment of their nursery journeys, and I will be forever recommending this place. The only downside is that the journey inevitably comes to an end. I couldn't do parenthood without this place.

Our daughter started there this year and we can't speak highly enough of the staff and nursey in general. The staff are extremely dedicated to the children and it is very pleasing to see how they build relationships.
The app allows us to stay in touch with the staff and to see what our daughter has
done throughout the day.
The nursery holds regular parent evenings and this again allows us to be kept up to date with the progress our daughter is making.

The staff go above and beyond for the children. Both of my grandchildren attend there and are always happy to go in and happy when they come out. The app that I have access to is excellent in informing you of their day and activities that they have been involved in.
The staff are all happy, interactive
and clearly know the children well. It’s a lovely family environment and us not focused on the financial side of care. They encourage family involvement with events that they plan and are well attended.
Keep up the good work and care.

Kirsty’s Little Treasures are absolutely amazing! My little boy started just before he turned one and almost two years later he has developed into an incredible, sociable, determined little boy and he has learnt so much, with a big part of this thanks to Kirsty’s Little Treasures! Nothing is too much
trouble, everyone is so friendly, the team are always so happy and joyful, and my son is always so excited to go to nursery. I truly believe that this is the best nursery I could have chosen and I am so thankful to the staff for everything they do! They make you feel like you’re part of their family and they are truly amazing! Thank you so much!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I’m not sure how to accurately describe the environment at Kirsty's Little Treasures other than that of all encompassing joy. You’ll have seen from so many other reviews but it’s the staff that make this place special, they are some of the kindest, funniest, compassionate most patient and most understanding
people you will ever meet. They treat every child like their own, they understand their needs and their personalities so well, they have special bonds with the children and clearly connect with them so well.
From a setting perspective it’s really wonderful, each room is well equipped and often there are updates or swaps if things get dated. The setting is always clean and tidy during parents evening etc so pride is taken in the appearance. The adventure cove soft play is a great addition and the children love going there to play, much the same for the forest school outside which is a nice introduction as most schools now offer forest school as standard.
Overall I couldn’t fault it. Superb in every way.

Fantastic nursery with kind and very caring staff. My son loves attending and will be very sad to leave to start at school. Since starting we’ve all been made to feel part of the Kirsty's Little Treasures
family and we felt this from the minute we were shown around the facility by a manager.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started Kirsty's Little Treasures in April as a 3 year old who was born in covid and hadn’t socialised with anyone other than family and friends and as a first time mum I was so nervous about sending him to nursery. From the first time I walked through the door for my show around the manager
and owner made me and my son feel at ease. All the staff are so caring and amazing with all the children. The facilities they have are amazing my son loves the soft playroom they have. My son loves going to nursery now and has come on leaps and bounds in all aspects of his learning and it's all because of the staff with their dedication to each child. The extra activities they do like Heartbeeps is an added touch to help the children which is fantastic. The Blossom app they use is brilliant I love the end of each day seeing the photos and daily report of what my son has been doing.
I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough they are the best. My son isn’t a big lunch eater so takes a packed lunch.

Due to another nursery shutting their provision we arranged some hours at Kirsty's Little Treasures. They are a fab team, always friendly and accommodating. Our son is very happy there and they take pictures and report progress on an app based diary for us to look at each night. Their paperwork and
billing is spot on too, highly recommended.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter is 20 months and has been at Kirsty's Little Treasures for 8 months. The staff are all so warm, friendly and loving towards the children. We could sense how much they care from our first visit just by seeing their interactions with both the children and parents and this differed quite significantly
to other nurseries that we visited. Their communication is fantastic with regular newsletters and (short!) bits of homework to find out what the children's needs and interests are. Each child is treated as an individual and not with a one size fits all approach. They are all brilliant and we are very happy to be part of the Kirsty's Little Treasures family!

My daughter is slow in speech and being at this nursery has helped her tremendously. She has a brilliant connection with all of the staff members, they truly go above and beyond to make sure every child gets the chance to thrive. I will be sending my youngest here too as I know and see first-hand how
purely fantastic and devoted the staff are.

I can't imagine a better nursery for my daughters. They love spending time there, they have so much fun, they learn so much, do messy plays. They are never bored.
I have peace of mind, I don't worry about them when I'm at work. I know my kids have the best care ever. Staff are amazing, they are fun,
loving and caring.
I would never change it for another nursery.

All the staff have been so welcoming and friendly since my little boy started and really helped settle him in. He comes home full of beans and tells us about everything he has been doing.
We love that there are extra activities like football and musical storytime. The soft play room is fab and he

My 7-year-old boy went to Kirsty’s Little Treasures from the age of 9 months until leaving for school. They are amazing, all staff and all the different age groups they enter are perfect for what your child needs. The right amount of love, playing and teaching.
I now have my 14-month-old daughter
at the nursery and I wouldn’t want her anywhere else, she loves it. Staff are brilliant with her and she loves her time at nursery.
It’s truly a nursery you can drop your child off and know they are being loved and well taken care of… plus having lots of fun in the process. All staff are friendly and always so helpful! Highly recommend.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.974)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.974) out of 10 for Kirsty's Little Treasures - Shenstone 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.974 for Kirsty's Little Treasures - Shenstone is calculated as follows: ( (222 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 228 Ratings = 4.974
  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 Kirsty's Little Treasures - Shenstone is based on 19 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 56 number of registered child places is 11.2, which has been reached with 19 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.
