My son has been at Little Stars since the age of 1. The staff are fantastic, it is a clean and safe environment and I feel happy leaving my son with the team at Little Stars. He has come on loads since he started and he enjoys all the activities he does when he is there. The staff are great with
the kids and spend time ensuring they all feel safe and well looked after. The meals provided are a great variety and different every week. Any questions I have are answered promptly. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Our daughter loves every day at nursery and I think that says it all. The staff are great, keeping her entertained and challenged while making sure she is having fun. The facilities are really good and I know for sure our little girl is looking forward to the new garden & outdoor play area opening.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both our sons have attended Little Stars Falkirk when they were 9 months old. Our youngest is in the baby room and our oldest pre school.
The staff at Little Stars are fantastic. They welcome our children every morning and are friendly and personable. Our boys have taken to all the team and speak
fondly of those they spend their day with.
The layout of the nursery is open with lots of activities for them to do. There is a new garden area and the children often play outside and have been on planned visits outside the nursery.
The food options are great too. Lots of variety and healthy choices.
We get daily updates with the parent app. Easy to use and is great getting updates and photos.
If we have any questions we email the nursery manager who has always replied promptly and is very helpful.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Little Stars Falkirk truly has been the best decision I have ever made as a first time mum having to return to work when my little one turned 9 months. My daughter has been attending this nursery since September 2024 and it is truly the best there is. We viewed another nursery in the area before the
decision and no one else meets the standard that this nursery does. I have felt at ease from the first day I dropped my little girl off and have never once had any doubt. She has only just turned 17 months and her walking, speech, manners and everything are second to none and I truly believe this is all because of the nursery we have chosen. The girls treat my child in the best possible way and the daily update with pictures and everything so i can see what she is up to are just brilliant.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fantastic nursery with an outstanding team. Providing person-centred care for all children. My son has thrived at Little Star's and both the manager and her team are very supportive and engaging. The children have a very happy, safe and clean environment to play and learn in and are also very lucky
to have their own garden on-site as well as the eco park and certain sculptures right on their doorstep. Nothing is ever an issue and requests and needs are always met. The manager and her team encourage the parents to get involved by hosting events such as 'stay and play' as often as they are able, with staff going over and above taking time out of their personal time to accommodate these days. The children are happy, healthy, kind and caring and this is a true reflection of how well the staff work with the children.

My son has been staying with Little Stars for over a year and a half now and we've never had any issue. The staff is lovely and very engaging and are always there to help if you want something specific monitored if your child is going in between different phases. Diaries are being kept up to date and
my son is very excited in the morning to go, which is always so lovely to hear.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are fairly new to the nursery but my girl has settled in so quickly! I was worried it would be hectic and overwhelming for her but she goes two days a week and absolutely loves it. She comes home very happy and the rest of the week is always asking to go to nursery which is great to hear. From the
handover we get from the staff, you can tell they really get to know her and are invested in her development. Her speech and confidence have developed a lot since starting. Would definitely recommend to any prospective parents from a very happy family.

My son has been attending Little Stars Nursery for two years and absolutely loves it. The staff are great and do lots of fun activities with him and he loves playing in the outdoor garden and going on walks to the park and garden. His confidence has come on greatly since he started nursery and he loves
to tell me what he has been up to at the end of each day. There is a good variety of lunches and snacks and any questions I have are always answered promptly.

Both my husband and I are extremely pleased with the Little Stars Nursery. We're confident that it's a welcoming and safe place, and our son feels really comfortable there. The time spent in the nursery allows him to grow, learn new things, and enhance his existing skills. Our little boy always looks
forward to going to the nursery and when we pick him up, he's happy and excited about his day there. Every team member is friendly, maintains great interaction with the children, and creates a wonderful atmosphere.

Wonderful nursery, my son literally cannot contain his excitement when going in. He genuinely loves all the staff and they make us feel as parents very included. The care and attention to detail for each child is amazing. We have been using them for almost 2 years and have always sung the praises. My
son’s key worker is a bundle of fun. Thanks again little stars

Little Stars Nursery have gone above and beyond to cater for my son when they had to close due to a gas leak out of their control. They found a space for my son for two days in their other nursery, all staff are so friendly and my son loves them all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy started Little Stars when he turned 1. I was so worried he'd struggle to settle or that he wasn't ready but he absolutely loves it. The staff are wonderful and he is always happy to see them when we arrive. I've had so many comments about how much his development is coming on since he
started nursery and his daily journal is always filled with good detailed information on what he has been up to and the skills and development he will gain from each activity. I try to have him out in all weathers to ensure he gets plenty of fresh air and I am always happy to see in the journal that they've had him out wrapped up in the stroller even in the colder weather. Food seems well varied and he is collected most days with some sort of paint/sand/play dough on him which is a sure sign of a good time. Would definitely recommend Little Stars!

My children both attend Little Stars (2-year-old and 4-year-old), they both love it! My son joined when he was 14 months old. They provided great settling-in sessions, making it a smooth process for my son and I. He got on great in the baby room and really developed with his confidence. His move up
to the toddler room was managed really well, with some short visits to the toddler room in the weeks leading up to him turning 2 which meant he settled in no problem. My daughter started nursery when she was 3 (preschool room). She loves it and always comes home with exciting stories of their adventures to the famous local park, woods, garden, baking, artwork, yoga, dancing and loads more. The staff are always so happy to see the kids and always have so much enthusiasm. They give us an excellent overview of how the kids have been through the day including sleep, food, activities, etc. The food provided seems to be plentiful and well received by my two! We’re really happy with Little Stars and would recommend.

We just have complete peace of mind when we drop off. The staff are so invested in the children and our son comes home full of stories and sometimes a bit reluctant to leave! We get a lot of information and it is easy to see that the staff are engaging with him throughout the day - he also has some
great pals there, which is important. From a practical perspective, parking is so easy and makes drop off and pick up pretty painless. We couldn't be happier.

Could not ask for a better nursery. The staff are all friendly and you can tell they really care, the manager always replies promptly to any inquiries and will always try to accommodate any requests. The activities the children take part in really encourage their curiosity and there is a good balance
of indoor and outdoor play. The updates from the online journals are great, give a good insight into what the children have been learning about and the menu for each week is such a good variety. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

My son has attended Little Stars for almost 4 years. There was a period where there was a turnover of staff but that seems to have settled and the staff in the preschool room are excellent. My son really enjoys it and has formed positive relationships with peers and staff.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.888)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.888) out of 10 for Little Stars Nursery Falkirk 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 38 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 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 4.888 for Little Stars Nursery Falkirk is calculated as follows: ( (415 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 454 Ratings = 4.888
  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 Little Stars Nursery Falkirk is based on 38 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 73 number of registered child places is 14.6, which has been reached with 38 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.
