My boy loves it here; he adores everyone. The staff are amazing. They have plenty of activities to do, and my son seems to enjoy outside playing. There's nothing bad to say about this nursery. Would highly recommend Smiley Stars Ibrox.

Overall Experience

My child has been attending Smiley Stars for over three years; we have found all aspects of the nursery and staff to be excellent, so much so that when we moved away from the area, we decided to keep our child in Smiley Stars for our childcare.

We are delighted to have your little one in our nursery; your lovely words are greatly appreciated - thank you.

Overall Experience

I can't tell you how grateful I am for having such a warm home for my son during the most difficult time of our lives, for life somehow meeting us with Smiley Stars Nursery, and for being able to leave my son with peace of mind every morning. One by one, all the staff greeted us with a smile every day. You patiently endured his difficult behaviours and toughness. There are so many things to count. We were away from our family here, but you became a family to us. Thank you all one by one. I hope you meet good-hearted people like yourself.

Reply from Tamara Marashi, Managing Director at Smiley Stars Nursery - Ibrox

Aww, thank you for your lovely review. We are grateful that we were able to help and support you and your family through these times. We are always here, take care.

Review from A M (Mother of Child) published on 3 November 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending this nursery for over a year now and has developed so well! The staff are great, thoughtful and encouraging to the children. My son loves going to nursery and enjoys his time there; he spends his days off talking about the staff and his friends. The activities and learning opportunities are excellent. He really enjoys the food, which is varied and inclusive. Overall, we are so happy with the nursery and the safe, loving environment that is provided for children here.

Review from Clare T (Mother of Child) published on 11 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have two boys, 5 and 3 who have attended Smiley Stars Nursery for over 2 years now. They have been happy, nurtured, encouraged and cared for like they were in a second home, from the moment they stepped over the threshold. I am so grateful for the care they have had there. There is a fantastic core group of staff and I would like to thank them as my older son moves on to school (and my younger son continues to enjoy Smiley Stars Nursery Ibrox!) A great nursery.

My baby girls started in January this year without knowing how to communicate in English or to read, and the whole staff have been soo amazing - very welcoming, patient, understanding and loving. It didn't take time for my daughters to adopt - am soo delighted! They love the nursery so much and always talk about their teachers and friends at home. Am so, so grateful.

Overall Experience

We put our son into Smiley Stars just over six months ago, and it’s been an amazing experience. They are so attentive and communicative; I feel really secure leaving him there. They update us on his activities and regularly relate his educational progress. I could not recommend the nursery more. Excellent and considerate staff.

Review from Beata P (Mother of Child) published on 23 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child loves going to nursery, which speaks volumes about the care he is getting there. I feel like the staff are really listening to his needs and supporting my child and us parents to make sure there is consistency in his care and development. In particular, our most recent experience is potty training - they supported both my child and us through this taking into consideration both our wishes and my child’s progress with this. Our positive experiences are not narrowed down to this though. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Review from A M (Mother of Child) published on 23 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son joined this nursery in late 2021, and we have seen a massive development in his speech in such a short time. The frequent daily updates, healthy food options and wide variety of activities have made the settling in period extremely easy. We have found all staff to be very welcoming and friendly. We would recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking for a smaller nursery whose staff have a genuine interest in the children's development.

It's been a wonderful experience for my son; he looks forward to nursery and is always happy to go.
The staff are very lovely and looks after the kids so well.
The management is also so accommodating in regards to working parents that do need an early start for their kids.

Overall, the care is worth the money you spend.

Review from Basia F (Mother of Child) published on 9 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has come to this nursery ever since he was 1-years-old to 5-years-old. Throughout the 4-years, my son has learnt so much like counting, writing and all other things. Every day they had different activities that my son loved doing and always looked forward to. He also learnt about interesting topics like about planets and the solar system, etc. The staff are also extremely nice and caring when it comes to looking after children, and I would 100% recommend it to any parent.

Reply from Tamara Marashi, Managing Director at Smiley Stars Nursery - Ibrox

We will all miss you lots. Gorgeous boy has grown up and heading to school. Take care, and please keep in touch.

Overall Experience

Smiley Stars were fantastic in accommodating our toddler during lockdown while our regular nursery was closed. The staff were great and we got regular updates and photos through the day via the app. If it hadn’t been for the proximity and convenience of our regular nursery, we would have asked to keep her on at Smiley Stars full time.

Review from John M (Father of Child) published on 27 August 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 2 boys came to Smiley Stars Nursery in Ibrox during the pandemic because my wife is a key worker. The boys had a terrific experience. We got photos and updates during the day (a service their normal nursery doesn't provide) and I felt incredibly well informed about what the boys were doing. They seemed to get lots of attention, plenty of good food to eat and were outdoors a lot. I was actually sorry for them to return to their local nursery. The team are great people.

Reply from Tamara Marashi, Managing Director at Smiley Stars Nursery - Ibrox

Thank you so so much, the boys were a delight to have. We loved having them. They are fun and well behaved and we do miss them a lot. All the best for the future.

Review from Debbie M (Mother of Child) published on 24 August 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I can't recommend Smiley Stars highly enough. All the staff and owners go above and beyond for the children and parents. Their communication and updates are second to none, the use a great app called Family which logs all daily activities, milestones, updates etc. The activities and learning and play they do with the children is fabulous. Their food is healthy and nutritious and I loved that they taught the children the importance of what they eat and the environmental issues. My eldest daughter is introverted and uncomfortable in groups and they worked greatly with her to build her confidence. Both my children loved their time at Smiley Stars and I can't thank them enough for the care and guidance they have given them. If it were not for us moving and my eldest daughter going to school my girls would both still be attending Smiley Stars. They are miles ahead of any other nursery I have encountered.

Review from Claire G (Mother of Child) published on 29 June 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My 5-year-old was moved to Smiley Stars during the pandemic as her old nursery had closed and both myself and my husband are key workers. The nursery has been fantastic. They do a lot of activities with the children and allow them to spend a lot of time outdoors. My child is an introvert and at her old nursery would barely say hello to her teachers. She now loves nursery and hugs the staff!
We have also noticed a huge improvement in her speech, confidence and ability to do activities such as jigsaws and building. She is also more adventurous and able to stand up for herself. If her old nursery were to re-open I would not send her back.

I would recommend Smiley Stars to all parents. They send picture updates and messages every day. They are staff are nurturing and encourage all the children to be the best they can be.

Overall Experience

We have recently enrolled our child at Smiley Stars Nursery and we could not be happier with our decision. Our child has settled extremely well and thoroughly enjoys her time at the nursery. Her development has come on leaps and bounds since joining. The staff are extremely friendly, diligent and very caring. Our daughter is fond of all the staff. The App keeps us updated with what our child is doing throughout the day and provides peace of mind whilst we are in work.
