Over all time Bright Star Nursery - Chester-le-Street has 16 reviews.
Most importantly, our daughter is very happy at this nursery. She is always excited to see the staff in the morning and I can tell that they really enjoy working with children.
Lovely nursery with fabulous staff both my children has loved going there and continue to do so. Very understanding staff that work really hard to make children feel safe and confident - my little girl has become independent and enjoys every day she walks in happy and comes home happy
I have been sending my son to Bright Star since he was 8 months old, and he is now in the 3.5 - 5 room until he starts school. I can’t recommend Bright Star enough! Even when he leaves to start school, I am highly likely to use the after school and holiday club as I’m that impressed by the care they provide.
Bright Star is a fantastic place. Both of our boys have been here since I returned to work. The nursery is fantastically well run, and the staff are fantastic. Our boys have thoroughly enjoyed their time here and have made so much progress in so many areas.
Bright Star staff have been unbelievable, I can’t praise them enough. With these difficult times they have been so approachable, happy and no question has been too hard. A lot of nurseries closed during this period, even for key workers, but Bright Star didn’t. They have been outstanding in my eyes and have made this difficult time so much easier for me knowing my child was OK whilst I had to work. Thank you for everything you’ve done.
Even simple things like nappies, nappy cream being provided until the age of two all help.
As a key worker, the nursery has been vital. The staff have been excellent giving the children a bit of normality during this difficult time. I can not thank them enough.
The nursery rooms are clean and spacious with each room having access to an outdoor space. The staff are happy to discuss and provide any dietary needs.
For older children breakfast club and wrap around clubs are provided again we have found this vital.
Most importantly my children love it here. They have thrived and have grown into two happy kids.
Every day when I pick her up her diary is full and she’s always being active and on some adventure.
The nursery has been brilliant from the start, especially when our son had loads of issues with food allergies and eczema; which needed monitoring and treatment.
He has become a very confident and sociable little boy; I believe that the nursery played a huge part in this.
Thank you to all the lovely ladies at Chester-Le-Street.
Many Thanks.
Would highly recommend Bright Star nursery; staff, facilities and learning is fantastic. My little boy has developed fantastically both socially and intellectually since starting the nursery and has become more confident in himself.
I can not recommend this nursery enough. My little girl has been coming here since she was eight months old (she is now nearly six) and every single person I have come across since have been amazing. They have always done anything they can to help if I've needed it and have treated my daughter with love. Thank you Bright Star.
My little girl absolutely loves going and has an amazing bond with the girls in the big room; they are always doing fun activity and crafts or going on mini adventures!
My eldest daughter went here and now my son does. The staff are amazing, can't say a bad word for any of them. I have watched my kids sprout all down to the nursery teachers.
My son has attended after school and holiday clubs at Bright Star for around a year now. They keep me informed on what he has been up to and genuinely care for him. They are excellent with catering to his dietary requirements and fully meet his needs (he has ASD). So glad I found Bright Star, just a fantastic group of carers!
Food is great, and my daughter always leaves happy.
She is only in one day a week, and she has settled in great.
She loves the activities and day trips out to the park.
Highly recommended.
My little girl who is two has just started and she absolutely loves it. I feel so comfortable leaving her, and the reassurance from staff is very helpful. I can ring as many times as I like; they're always happy to take the time to speak to me to tell me how she is. My little girl always talks about everything she has done during her day, and she loves it.
