Their dedicated nursery app also keeps families informed with daily updates, fostering strong communication and a collaborative approach to each child’s learning journey.
Children enjoy daily access to a secure and engaging outdoor play area, featuring movable equipment that encourages imaginative and physical play. Meals are freshly prepared on-site, with a nutritious menu designed to promote healthy eating habits from a young age.

The staff are always so kind and lovely. They always know my child's name whenever we walk in, regardless of who is in reception. The daily reports and pictures are lovely. If we ever need extra care or attention for our child, they are so accommodating.

The garden is one of the main reasons I picked the nursery; it’s so lovely and big!

Has to be the best nursery in Bromsgrove! The staff are friendly, helpful and caring. They offer support to the whole family, not just the child. They are great with their communication and are always happy to work together with parents for the best interest of the child. The outdoor facilities are fabulous, and the best locally around by far, and the activities and enrichment the staff create on a regular basis for the children are above and beyond. Absolutely recommend it 100%.

Our daughter thoroughly enjoys going to nursery at Shooting Stars. She looks forward to nursery with great excitement. She has made lots of new friends and I really feel like it has given her the right experiences to get her ready for big school in September. She has a great bond with all her teachers at Shooting Stars and talks about them all with great passion and even considers them as friends. Keep up the good work you are all doing at Shooting Stars!

Since my daughter has come to shooting stars she has come on leaps and bounds. We chose the nursery as we felt immediately at ease and confident that they would look after her. I know it is not the cheapest of nurseries in the area but the ease with which it makes me and my partner feel knowing our daughter is in good hands is priceless. Everyone knows our daughter and every time I turn up, numerous staff members will talk to me and take time to answer any questions. The menu and activities are varied and look great (especially the food) So glad my daughter goes here and just wish we could send her more days a week.

My little boy started at Shooting Stars in June 2022, aged nine months. He instantly took to the baby room and the lovely staff who work there - one lady was always helpful. He has now transitioned to the toddler room and equally loves it, especially when he sees another member of staff during the morning when he’s coming in. The camera system is reassuring, especially as you can see what your little one is doing during different stages of the day.

Thank you for sharing your feedback; it's great to hear your son has settled and transitioned well with us as he has grown. We are glad that you find the Nurserycam system a useful tool to put your mind at rest or just to check in on your son at any time during the day.

My twins have been attending Shooting Stars since they were two; they’ve not long turned four. They attended a different nursery before, but they just weren’t happy there, prompting me to find this one. Their attitudes towards going to the nursery at Shooting Stars are night and day compared to before, and it was immediate. They are both genuinely so happy to be there and love all of the staff that they interact with on a daily basis. That was my main priority and make-or-break deal after my last nursery experience - a lovely and supportive team = happy kids. That’s exactly what we got! Both the toddler room and the preschool room are packed full of fun stuff that leads to child-led activities, which suit my boys best. The staff do lots of structured activities too, and both of the twins’ learning has come on leaps and bounds.
In a nutshell, I highly recommend this nursery! (In fact, I always do!).

My daughter has been attending this nursery for the past two years, and I couldn't be happier. She is genuinely excited to go to nursery each day. The staff are brilliant, the food is often better than what I eat (and certainly encourages the children to eat a wide range of food), and the day is well structured. They are even going above and beyond to work with my daughter on her speech development (for which she is under SALT for as a concern). I am completely at ease dropping her off there each day, where I know she will be safe and happy.

Sam joined Shooting Stars Bromsgrove as Nursery Manager in June 2024, bringing with her a wealth of experience in Early Years leadership and a strong specialism in SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) support. With many years of hands-on and strategic experience in the sector, Sam is passionate about inclusive education and ensuring that every child receives the care, attention, and opportunities they need to thrive.
Her vision for the nursery is rooted in collaboration, empowerment, and continuous improvement. Sam is dedicated to supporting the team in achieving even better outcomes for the children and families who attend Shooting Stars. She believes in nurturing individual strengths, encouraging innovation, and building confidence across the staff team to deliver a rich and engaging curriculum.
Sam’s leadership style is warm, approachable, and focused on developing a strong, reflective culture within the nursery. She is committed to creating an environment where children feel safe, inspired, and excited to learn, and where staff feel valued, supported, and motivated to grow professionally.
With her deep understanding of SEND and inclusive practice, Sam ensures that the nursery is a place where every child’s unique needs are recognised and celebrated. She works closely with families and professionals to provide tailored support and build strong partnerships that benefit each child’s development.
Outside of her professional role, Sam is known for her positive energy and dedication to making a difference. Her arrival at Bromsgrove has already brought fresh ideas and a renewed sense of purpose to the team, and she looks forward to continuing to build strong relationships with both new and existing families.
Sam writes a blog and has featured in early years sector publications to share her skills, knowledge and experience of creating an outstanding inclusive early years provision.

Tracy joined Shooting Stars Nurseries in 2011, at a time when the group had just one nursery setting. She was originally appointed as Deputy Manager at the Stourbridge nursery before stepping into the role of Nursery Manager in 2013. In 2015, she progressed into her current role as Area Manager, bringing with her a wealth of experience from a career in Early Years that spans over 28 years.
Before joining Shooting Stars, Tracy worked across a variety of practitioner, leadership, and senior leadership roles within day nursery settings. Her career also includes time spent as part of a specialist support team working with children who had experienced spinal cord injuries, and she began her journey in childcare as a nanny. Her long-standing commitment to Shooting Stars has made the organisation feel like an extension of herself—she often says it’s as much a part of her as she is of it.
Tracy is deeply passionate about creating magical childhoods that nurture curiosity, excitement, and strong foundations for lifelong success. She has a particular interest in emotional well-being, believing that secure, emotionally enabling environments are essential for children to thrive truly. After many years of hands-on practice, she now channels her passion into supporting teams across the nurseries, helping embed this ethos into the culture of every setting.
Her leadership is rooted in empathy, experience, and a genuine love for early years education. Tracy continues to inspire those around her with her dedication to quality, her belief in the power of nurturing relationships, and her commitment to growing confident, capable teams.

Kully began her journey with Shooting Stars Nurseries in September 2014 as the Nursery Manager of the newly opened Wolverhampton setting. In 2022, she progressed into a strategic role, joining the Area Management Team as a Strategic Development Manager.

Since 2004, Kully has held a variety of leadership roles, including Room Leader in both Pre-School and Under 2’s, Deputy Manager, and Nursery Manager—spending 16 of those years in management.
These experiences have shaped her deep understanding of early years education and operational leadership.
Kully is particularly passionate about the development of children under two, with a strong focus on building secure attachments and nurturing environments that support emotional well-being and early development. She also brings extensive expertise in Health & Safety, SEND, and Safeguarding, which are central to her practice and leadership.
A key focus of Kully’s role is supporting the growth of the early years workforce. She is committed to empowering staff through continuous professional development, helping them build confidence and fulfilment in their roles. Wellbeing is at the heart of her approach—she strives to foster a positive, supportive workplace for teams and a safe, inspiring space for children.
