Overall Experience

Rising Stars are absolutely fantastic with our little boy who has attended the setting since January 2025. Our son is non verbal and autistic, they have helped us through the diagnosis process and support us and him daily with his communication and sensory needs. I wouldn't want him anywhere else.

Reply from Sharon Fenton, Owner at Rising Stars Nursery

Thank you so much, we want all children who attend Rising Stars Nursery to thrive and be the best they can be. It truly is a privilege to look after your son.

Review from Lucy H (Mother of Child) published on 12 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Rising Stars has been an amazing experience for our little boy. I was extremely reluctant for anyone to watch my little boy after he was diagnosed with a severe nut allergy, I didn't trust anyone but after meeting the staff and seeing the environment I decided to give nursery one shot. The staff always keep us up to date on anything our little boy is up to, the level of professionalism is outstanding as is the care, thought, and love shown to my boy. My son has settled in so easily and the process was thorough, informative, and easy. My son loves his staff and all the activities he undertakes daily are challenging, fun, and engaging. Every day, I know when I pick him up, he has had a great day, staff meet you at the door with a smile, fill you in with what they have done, eaten, and everything else you need to know, they never rush the end of day handover.

Thank you so much. We want all families to feel safe when leaving their child with us and we want each child to feel secure and enjoy and learn whilst with us too.

Review from Sophie S (Mother of Child) published on 12 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Absolutely love this nursery best nursery I have ever used. Staff always have a smile and a laugh with you, always smiles on their faces when welcoming or saying goodbye to children. My boys have loved the transition from the old part to the new part and loved going to nursery everyday. Thank you for all that you do and everything you carry on doing. Although the journey for one of my boys has come to an end with nursery he has loved every minute of it and loved going to nursery and seeing all his amazing staff. I will definitely send my other boy next year when its his time to go.

Overall Experience

The staff at Rising Stars have been absolutely brilliant with both of my children. I have been continuously impressed with how engaged and on top of things they are, especially considering that both of my children have special needs. They have been open and welcoming, they keep us updated with pictures and handovers, and the staff are always happy to see us. The girls have made so much progress at Rising Stars too, despite only having been there a short while!

Brilliant nursery, and lovely staff. My children absolutely love going they love all the staff and activities they do. My children have come on leaps and bounds since joining here, they’ve built lovely relationships with all the children and adults there. They get very upset in the school holidays when they can’t go to nursery. Couldn’t thank all the staff enough for helping my children grow.

Overall Experience
My child loves this nursery. She was at another nursery before moving to the area and just seemed never to settle, but here she settled in a matter of weeks, and she learns so much and it shows at home. The standards are excellent in all aspects of the nursery.

I would definitely recommend any parent to send their child here.

Reply from Sharon Fenton, Owner at Rising Stars Nursery

This is lovely to hear, staff want all children to have an enjoyable time with us and learn through play along the way. Thanks.

This is a very good nursery. They have been excellent at helping with potty training. She has come on brilliantly with her colours and her speech. All the staff are all friendly, and the children love them. Couldn't ask anything more from them.

Thanks so much. Children learn at their own pace, and we are glad we are able to support the next stage of independence.
