If you want a nursery that feels more like a family than a business then Yellow Star is for you. The staff take the time to really get to know each child, to understand them and celebrate who they are. They help them to grow in confidence and let their personalities shine.
My son left Yellow Star to start Reception in September. He is one of the youngest in his class, but thanks to the brilliant foundation Yellow Star gave him, he was more than ready. He settled into school smoothly, full of confidence, kindness, and excitement to learn and make new friends.
He still talks about Yellow Star and all the wonderful people there with so much love, and honestly, so do we. We miss it deeply, and we will always be grateful for the role they played in such an important chapter of his life.
We picked Yellow Star for our two boys and feel like it was one of the best decisions we made for them. They attended from the age of 1 until they went to school. The staff at Yellow Star gave them such wonderful nurturing care, and we really felt like part of a big family. I was completely confident that their wellbeing was prioritised, and they felt secure and safe. They came home with such fun stories about their day and the boys are so pleased to see the staff when they bump into them in the village. The Yellow Star preschool prepared the boys well for starting Reception, and made learning fun. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Yellow Star to any other parent.
Having experience of another nursery, Yellow Star's care is brilliant - knowledge and understanding, and dealing of, of food intolerances is fantastic.
I wouldn't send my children anywhere else!
Maddie and all the staff are amazing, and they've created a lovely, nurturing, fun nursery, which also helps children develop and be ready for school.
All three of our children were lucky enough to attend Yellow Star and we have absolutely loved being part of the Yellow Star family. The staff are all incredible and always go the extra mile to nurture each individual child's development. We were so sad when our youngest left nursery but so very grateful to see him thrive at school as his sisters did because of the excellent start from Maddie and the team
Maddie has been incredible, always welcoming and accommodating. And she leads a fantastic team. Every staff member showed genuine care and kindness towards my son. He loved going in each day and always came home smiling.
The nursery regularly takes the children out on lovely walks, whether to the library or to visit the ducks, which my son thoroughly enjoyed. He also loved the enrichment classes on offer, including signing, yoga, and Tiny Mites.
We were so sad to leave, but we will always hold Yellow Star very close to our hearts and are incredibly grateful for the wonderful start they gave our son.
Yellow star are a fantastic nursery! Both my children have attended from 9months to school age and have thrived.
The teachers take care to evaluate each child for individual needs and adapt accordingly, they really prepared my boys for each developmental step and the jump to primary school.
Maddie has been so flexible and supportive with me needing to add extra or amend days and always incredibly responsive.
I can't recommend them enough and feel privileged that my children were able to attend yellow star.
Our daughter attended Yellow Star from 1 - until she graduated in 2025. From the moment go, we were very impressed. They become part of the family and our daughter could not wait to go in each week. Every one of the staff are amazing, and our daughter still talks about how much she misses it 6 months after she left. You will not find a better nursery!!
Our two boys attended Yellow Star when they were very little, until they graduated and went to school. They both absolutely loved their time at Yellow Star, and the staff were brilliant and it felt like an extension of our family with such a nurturing and caring environment. As two working parents, we appreciated the extra support and flexibility Yellow Star gave us - highly recommend it!
Our kids went to Yellow Star from 8 months olf(when I went back to work) until they graduated just before going to school. How lucky we were to have such high quality provision right in our village. Yellow Star is a nurturing, warm environment and any time I wanted advice I could ask, which I really valued as a parent. Our kids still light up when they bump into their nursery teachers in the village. Strong recommend.
