Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children have attended little stars daycare and I cannot recommend it enough.
Our eldest boy, who originally was a shy bookworm when he first started, grew so much in confidence while there and still asks to go back, which says everything. My youngest is currently there and treats it like
a home from home, and as a parent that is so reassuring.
The range of activities is brilliant, with so much thought put into learning through play and plenty of outdoor time. The team truly get to know each child as an individual, and that care really shows.
Communication with parents is excellent too. We've always felt informed, reassured, and involved. We couldn't recommend Little Stars highly enough.
Reply from Lisa Davies, Owner at Little Stars DaycareThank you so much for this incredible review it truly means the world to us
It has been a privilege to care for both of your children and to watch them grow into confident, happy individuals. Hearing that your eldest still asks to come back is such a wonderful compliment, and knowing your youngest feels completely at home with us is exactly what we strive to create for every family.
Our team is passionate about providing meaningful learning experiences through play, encouraging outdoor exploration, and building strong relationships so every child feels valued as an individual. Were also delighted that our communication gives you reassurance and helps you feel involved in your childrens journeys.
Thank you for your continued trust and for recommending Little Stars so highly being part of your familys early years story is something we are truly proud of

Ever since attending Little Stars the girls have always gone above and beyond for my loved one!! My daughter has attended since she was 9 months and still attends now for after school club and they offer pick ups from school as I work full time. Even when I was stuck for childcare around 18 months old
the girls straight away were able to help me and offer full time child care. My daughter has thrived over the years and to this day she takes a good half an hr to leave as she just loves them all so much. The little stars team are like family to my daughter and me and they can't do enough. Even when my daughter was under paediatrics they would send me videos of they thought something was wrong, also constant updates on what she was doing, how much she'd ate, nap times etc. Their app is user friendly and sessions are easily bookable.
Reply from Lisa Davies, Owner at Little Stars DaycareThank you for such a heartfelt review - it truly means so much to us
It has been an absolute privilege to care for your daughter from just 9 months old through to after school club. Watching her grow, develop, and thrive over the years has been incredibly special for our whole team. The fact that she never wants to leave and feels so at home with us is the greatest compliment we could receive!
We always strive to support our families in any way we can, whether that's helping during unexpected childcare needs, providing reassurance, or keeping you updated on your child's day. Knowing you feel supported and that your daughter sees Little Stars as family is exactly what we hope to create for every child who walks through our doors.
Thank you for your continued trust and for allowing us to be such an important part of your daughter's journey

From the moment my little boy started at this nursery, he LOVED it. Every single member of staff is amazing. Every day at this nursery is different and my little boy is learning something new every day. It's the one place he eats so well. He goes in with a smile and comes out with a smile. The girls
go above and beyond every single day, and I honestly cannot thank them all enough. I am so happy I chose this nursery for my little boy to learn and develop in his early years before school. Thank you girls, your all amazing

Little Stars Daycare are absolutely amazing! They cater to my childs needs at all times and have helped my child grow through major milestones including potty training and helped her personality and character shine bright. I receive regular updates of her time at the nursery including images of play
and meal updates, and get great handovers at pickup time. My child has been a member of the nursery for over 2 years now and she loves every minute of being there. The nursery has a lovely outdoor area as well as inside which let's them explore and learn as children should.
Little Stars has been a massive part of my child's life and I couldn't be anymore grateful for their hard work and passion for our kids!
Reply from Lisa Davies, Owner at Little Stars DaycareThank you so much for your incredibly kind words and for taking the time to share your experience with Little Stars Daycare.

Absolutely outstanding nursery, the girls working there can't do enough for the babies and parents. My daughter absolutely loves going and loves being there. She has been interacting with other children and it's amazing to watch. Your updated throughout the day and as a mother who was nervous and scared
as first baby to take them to nursery the girls couldn't do enough to reassure me and update me all day. They offer a variety of diet throughout the day that is amazing and my daughter is constantly trying new food and textures. She's learning different feels and textures through play to help support her and it's amazing to see.
Reply from Lisa Davis, Owner at Little Stars DaycareThank you so much for your incredibly kind words - it truly means the world to us

Review from Rebecca D (Mother of Child) published on 10 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was very apprehensive about my son starting nursery, and as a natural worrier I felt full of anxiety. But from the moment he started at Little Stars Daycare, I knew he was in safe hands. The regular photo updates, messages, and the communication at both drop off and pick up really helped to put my
mind at ease.
As time has gone on, my son has grown to love nursery, and seeing how happy and engaged he is through the photo updates reassures me how much he enjoys his time there. I especially appreciate the detailed observations shared after sessions on the notebook app. They are informative and indicate links to the Curriculum for Wales which for someone who works within education myself, I find this reassuring. They include next steps to help further his learning and development. The staff are all fantastic and really do go above and beyond!
I highly recommend Little Stars.
Reply from Lisa Davies, Owner at Little Stars DaycareThank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and heartfelt review.
We completely understand how daunting it can feel taking that first step into nursery life, especially when you're a natural worrier, so it truly means a lot to hear that you felt reassured from the very beginning. Building strong relationships with both children and parents, and communicating openly at drop-off, pick-up, and throughout the day, is something we really value.
It's been such a pleasure to watch your son grow in confidence and enjoyment at nursery, and we're so pleased that the photo updates and observations help you see just how happy and engaged he is. Your feedback on our observations and links to the Curriculum for Wales is especially appreciated - knowing they feel meaningful and reassuring to someone working within education themselves means a great deal to us.
Thank you for your kind words about the team. They truly do put their hearts into what they do

Both my children attend Little Stars and its an absolutely amazing nursery setting. My children feel safe, settled and happy there, the staff do their best to make it a home from home experience by incorporating your home routines into theirs. They provide regular updates and photos so you can see how
your children are getting on through day, putting your mind at ease knowing they are happy. The detail they provide on the app they use is amazing- the food they have eaten, their sleep, the activities they are involved in. They record wow moments, which shows the attention to detail they have for each individual child when looking after the children throughout the day. My youngest has had a tough time settling but they have provided more one to one play/attention as they noticed that they are more comfortable with fewer children, thus helping build trust to help them settle. My oldest runs in and can't wait to start the day.They go above for your children, looking after them like family.
Reply from Lisa Davies, Owner at Little Stars DaycareThank you so much for your incredibly kind words it truly means the world to us.
Knowing that both of your children feel safe, happy, and excited to come into Little Stars is exactly what we strive for every single day. Creating a home-from-home environment and supporting each child as an individual is at the heart of everything we do, so its lovely to hear that this has made a difference for your family.
Were especially proud to have helped your youngest settle with the extra care and attention they needed watching their confidence grow is why we love what we do. And hearing that your oldest runs in ready for the day puts a huge smile on our faces!
Thank you for trusting us with your most precious treasures and for being such a valued part of our Little Stars family.

The nursery really is a 'home away from home', my little boy has grown immensely since being at Little Stars. His speech and confidence have developed so much. The manager and the team really listen to you about the care of your child and really tailor the care and activities around your child's well-being
and developmental needs. There is structured and independent play at the nursery so that the children get to learn both routine and explorative/imaginary play. I also love how we are greeted every morning with 'Is everything ok?', which allows a safe space for a chat if it's needed about your child. You can tell through parents' evening and chats around pick up and drop off that the manager and the staff really do love caring for our little ones and are super invested in their futures. Thank you millions girls, superwomen!

Both my girls have been to Little Stars Daycare, my first before and my youngest is currently there now. Honestly could not wish for a better nursery. It really is a home-from-home environment, they get fresh-cooked meals daily. To the point, my youngest asks to stay till after tea time because she
loves the food that much!
They have a lovely garden area for the children too, with lots of equipment and activities to keep them entertained. Getting updates via the app too really puts your mind at ease and allows you to get an insight on what your little one is getting up to throughout the day.
If you’re looking for a home from home environment for your children, little stars is definitely the nursery for you. We love our Little Stars Daycare family. My girls wouldn’t have gone anywhere else.

My child has been attending Little Stars Daycare for a year and a half, and hand on heart I can truthfully say they are the best nursery I have ever dealt with. When my child first started he was 14 months old and struggled to be away from me due to the covid pandemic. All of the girls listened to my
worries and concerns and helped ease him into nursery whilst making him feel safe and comforted. Even after the first taster session, I knew he was going to be absolutely fine there and love it. He is now nearly 3 and he is thriving, also the nursery always does lots of activities to help children grow and develop different skills. They are also great with dealing with his multiple allergies/intolerance which helps out my mind at ease, and have been amazing with my son whilst he has transitioned from nappies to potty. They have an app which keeps you updated throughout the day, and always, always take lots of pictures and videos which I love. Such a great nursery that I feel are now like family!

My daughter has been going to the nursery for the last year now and she's really enjoying it she has come on amazing and loads since starting. The hours are really suited for my job role and the prices are also reasonable as well as food snacks and nappies are included. There's alot of different activities
for the children to do and learn and a lovely big garden for the summer days.
The staff are all lovely and amazing with the children of all ages and welcoming in when on arrival and departure of the nursery
Any queries are answered straight away also there's an app and Instagram with updates which is ideal when working long hours you can see everything they've done or eaten and naps during the day.
I'd recommend this nursery to anyone I know with children and I already have recommended alot of my friends with children.

Little Stars Daycare is an amazing nursery! Our son loves going there. He comes out of there full of beans, telling us about all the fun he and his friends have had that day. We are updated with lots of posts throughout the day on Instagram stories which we love as we can see how happy he is and how
much he’s enjoying. There’s also an update on the app which lets us know what meals he’s had and a description of what theme they’ve been learning that day. I can’t thank the staff enough, they are always so friendly and accommodating, even allowing us to book in for extra sessions last minute when we’ve had childcare issues. He has come on leaps and bounds since attending the nursery, he is thriving and I’ll be sorry to see him leave the nursery. It really is an amazing place.

My son started at Little Stars Daycare 2 years ago and is ready to go to pre school now in September. I’m gutted he’s leaving. Little Stars creates a warm, nurturing environment for all the children the girls are amazing with him, they are incredibly kind, patient, empathetic, full of fun and enthusiasm.
There are lots of updates and pictures throughout the day and the communication is brilliant, creating a smooth transition and a home from home experience. The outdoor and indoor facilities are brilliant, sensory play and role play which is all vital in any child’s development and he is thriving. I could go on and on, all I would like to say is a huge thank you to you all x

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.978)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.978) out of 10 for Little Stars Daycare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.978 for Little Stars Daycare is calculated as follows: ( (316 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 323 Ratings = 4.978
  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 Daycare is based on 27 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 29 number of registered child places is 5.8, which has been reached with 27 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.
