The staff at Starlings Nursery endeavour to work with parents to develop confident children who thrive and have every opportunity to reach their full potential.
Staff encourage, nurture and support children throughout their time at the nursery.
At Starlings Nursery, staff ask themselves, 'Would they want this for their own children or family members?' It’s a great question that guides practitioners and managers and ensures each child is at the centre of everything the nursery does.

Naomi and the whole team have always been incredibly kind, caring, understanding and supportive. What stood out to me most was that they genuinely cared about Doris's wellbeing, not just her attendance. Whenever she was unwell or unable to attend, they checked on her and showed real concern for her health and safety. As a parent, that gave me a great deal of reassurance.
They were also very understanding and supportive of our family circumstances throughout the year, and I will always be grateful for the kindness and patience they showed us.
A huge thank you to Naomi and every member of the team for everything you have done .You have genuinely been a five-star nursery for us, and I would happily recommend Starlings to any parent looking for a caring, supportive and welcoming nursery.

My son is so happy here and always comes home full of positive stories about his day. The staff are incredibly friendly and approachable, creating a truly welcoming atmosphere. Because the group sizes are small, the nursery has a wonderful, nurturing feel that helps children feel secure especially those who might otherwise feel overwhelmed. It's the perfect environment for building close friendships. I love that the staff truly recognise and support children's individual needs. I feel completely confident knowing he is happy, valued, and well-cared for.

The team goes above and beyond to support each child's needs and development, and it's clear how much they truly care. We're so grateful to have found such a wonderful, nurturing environment.

I'm incredibly happy with Starlings Nursery! The teachers are truly wonderful - warm, attentive, and full of positive energy. You can see how much care and thought they put into everything they do. They create such a fun and supportive environment, and it shows in how excited my child is to go each day. They do so much creative work with the children - from art projects to hands-on activities - and it really helps them grow and enjoy learning.
It's a packed lunch nursery, and they also provide healthy, nutritious snacks throughout the day. I feel confident knowing my child is in such safe, loving hands. Highly recommended to any parent looking for quality early years care!

Starling is an excellent nursery. My daughter currently goes there as well as my eldest daughter who used to go there five years ago. I will always recommend this nursery as the staff are extremely friendly and nurturing the education through play program is not match by any other nursery in this area And I'll be happy to let my daughter stay here until she's five years old and my baby daughter will also be attending when older too.
As Grandma to two attendees, one still attending, I cannot praise this nursery enough. The nursery care workers are like a family, they are nurturing, attentive and loved by all the children. Starlings Nursery keeps you well informed of your child's progress and their varied daily activities...
As Grandma to two attendees, one still attending, I cannot praise this nursery enough. The nursery care workers are like a family, they are nurturing, attentive and loved by all the children. Starlings Nursery keeps you well informed of your child's progress and their varied daily activities educate, stimulate and ensure your child is well prepared for their next step into primary school. My granddaughter has developed beautiful relationships with both her peers and all members of staff. Their safeguarding is exemplary, giving you peace of mind that your child is always safe, secure and happy. Best choice we ever made.
We're very happy with Starlings nursery. The staff are incredibly caring and attentive. The environment is clean, safe, and welcoming. We always feel informed and involved in our daughter's progress and daily activities. Highly recommended!

My two children have gone here and over the years, it has been such a positive experience at this wonderful nursery. We feel so very supported by the staff and it has been like a home away from home for my kids.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Starlings Nursery. The staff is exceptionally caring, attentive, and genuinely passionate about early childhood development. Even after the nursery moved to a new location, we chose to keep our son there.
Thank you to all the staff. Your care and dedication are truly appreciated!
He's been so happy there and it makes our life a lot easier if he is happy.

All of the ladies that work there are amazing and so lovely and we couldn't ask for a better nursery.
We love the new place and how clean and spacious it is for the kids.
They all seem very happy there.
Thank you

This is our second time with Starling Nursery. We were delighted with our first son's progress and decided to send our youngest one. We recommended to four different families, and they all sent their kids here as well. They moved in to a new location, which is bigger, modern and cleaner. The manager and her team are great; I can not find one negative topic to write about. I can say thank you to all staff.
My son loves going to nursery and it makes me so happy and comforted. The staffs are so friendly and work brilliantly with the children. Highly recommend Starlings to anyone looking for a high-quality, caring and friendly setting.

We love Starlings Nursery. My daughter has been attending since September 2024. The staff are brilliant - so helpful and dedicated to the children's learning and care. They have a lovely space with great resources and they plan engaging activities, often linked to a topic or story. We like the balance between getting children to sit and listen to a story or sing nursery rhymes, or gather for snack time, encouraging children to join in on planned activities, and letting children choose and play independently. We receive daily tapestry photos of activities. A first-class nursery!

We couldn't have asked for a better nursery for our daughter. The care of the staff has been outstanding, not just for her but for our whole family. There is such creativity and thoughtfulness in the variety of activities the children do and our daughter has learned so much. Staff are quick to notice the personalities of the children and to tailor activities to them and we have been very grateful for how they prepared our daughter for school. We would have appreciated slightly more nursery-initiated updates, such as end-of-term reports but the staff are obviously very knowledgeable about the children and our daughter's key workers could give more detailed reports, updates and advice for the next steps when asked.
My first son attended from 2018-2020 and my second son is currently there. Can’t recommend it enough, one of the best ones in Barnet.

Staff are very friendly, kind, caring and helpful. My little one settled very well in a few days, and since that, he loves to go to learn and do new things there. Always showing very proudly his paintings and other activities whatever he made.
They are also very supportive, my son started to eat a bit more fruit as well with their help. Thank you for the team, couldn’t be any happier.
So happy we picked this nursery for our son, the staff are so kind and caring! They have taken the time to build a genuine relationship and bond with him. In the beginning, he was unhappy going in but calmed down quickly, everyone always makes him feel safe and welcome and is more than happy to...
I would 100% recommend this nursery to anyone.

Starlings is an amazing nursery, in fact I feel it is one of the best in Barnet! Both managers are very experienced and organised in the running of the nursery, it is a very family friendly nursery where all the staff will nurture and support your child like their own.

All the staff are brilliant with the children and caring. My child always comes out of nursery with a big smile on his face and can see his progress since starting the nursery. Cannot fault them at all
