All 3 of my children have attended Little Stars from the baby room up until pre-school and now attend before and after school club. Staff have always been professional, caring and understanding. My children also attend holiday club during the school holidays and are always happy going. Activities are set out for the weeks and there is always something fun for the children to do.
Thank you for completing a review! We truly appreciate your feedback and value your thoughts on our service.
Little Stars has been incredible with our daughter since she was 9 months old to now being almost 3. She's come on so far, especially in her confidence and the team there has had a big role to play in that. Everyone has been so kind and amazing with our daughter and ourselves too. They really seem to engage with the children and take an interest in their lives inside and outside of nursery. Everyone we have ever met there has been nothing but kind. They put activities in place to promote children's learning and encourage them to go further with their learning. Nothing but good things to say about Little Stars.
Thank you for your thoughtful review; we truly appreciate your feedback and value your support!
I can't say enough positive about Little Stars, they are truly the most amazing nursery and preschool any child could wish for. I have two young children both started in the baby nursery and have worked their way through to preschool and they also attend the after-school club and holiday club too. To watch your children be so supported and cared for by the most incredible staff is truly the best feeling. They support they care and they make every child's journey an individual one to them and bring out the best in them in every way possible allowing them to be their very own personality and person. They encourage fun and learning all in one and nothing is ever too much and just to feel and see how much they care is everything enabling myself to continue in a career and know my children are happy and adored in there amazing child care they provide. 10-star review always.
Thank you for your kind words! It's a joy to care for your wonderful children.
My child absolutely loves coming to nursery, she's now found her own routine, made friends and lovely relationships with the staff. My child always leaves with a smile, staff always update the family app frequently keeping you updated wiith how your child's day is going, lots of pictures which is lovely to see. Couldn't recommend the nursery or staff enough.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts in a review; we truly appreciate your feedback!
My child has progressed well over the time at this setting. Enjoys attending and is well cared for by the Little Stars staff. I feel as a parent I have developed a good relationship with the staff and they cater for the needs of my child extremely well. The post regular updates and constantly keep the children engaged, while learning and gaining skills. This is a great setting for children and highly recommend.
Thank you for leaving us a lovely review; we really appreciate your support!
I have had 2 girls attend this nursery and they have both thrived and really enjoyed their time and built their confidence.
All the managers always respond promptly to any questions we have ever had and the staff always ask for a report on how the children are in the morning.
Excellent little Stars, I couldn't recommend them enough!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We truly appreciate your feedback and support.
The nursery provides good care and well-being for the child. However, there have been compliance issues relating to statutory laws and regulations. Staff are friendly, and the child is happy in their presence. As a shared-care parent, I have felt a bias toward the other parent. Overall, it is a good nursery, but personal experiences involving unfortunate events have downgraded the review.
Thank you for your review. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. However, I want to clarify that your child is not enrolled at our Westlands setting. We prioritise safeguarding across all our sites, as the welfare of the children is our top concern. If you'd like to discuss this matter further, please don't hesitate to reach out to me directly.
