I'm very pleased with the nursery my daughter attends. She always comes home happy. The teachers are caring and understanding, and they organize lots of developmental activities.
My daughter is very shy, but her key person understands her needs very well, which makes me much calmer.

The staff at the nursery have been wonderful. They are so welcoming, supportive, nurturing and caring. I have been really impressed with the fun and engaging activities the nursery staff have planned and carried out with my child. The online journals have been great at letting me see what my child is
up to and also allowing us to share with the nursery the things he has done that are linked to his interests. Thank you for all your hard work.

It's now been a full year since our little one started at Growing Stars Nursery, and we couldn't be happier with our experience.
Our child has grown so much in confidence, social skills, and independence. They genuinely look forward to going in every day, excited to see the staff and spend time with
their peers, which says so much about the positive environment the nursery creates.
We've also seen a real boost in their learning and development, with clear progress over time. The team continues to communicate excellently with us, keeping us updated on progress, daily activities, and anything important.
We can confidently say that Growing Stars Nursery has been an amazing choice for our family.

Absolutely amazing nursery!! This is now my second child who attends, (and recently had another baby who most definitely will be going here when I'm back to work) :)
My first child who attended was on the spectrum and he was treated with the most love and care I could have asked for!
Best nursery
and the most amazing experience i have has so far. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great place to send thier child for them to actually learn and not just be 'looked after' my 2nd son was quite delayed in his speech but since coming here he has blossomed and he won't stop talking which I am truly greatful for. My upmost gratitude to all the amazing staff at GSN.xx

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children have been part of GSN-one is still in pre-school, and the other is now in Reception.


I'm so glad I chose GSN for both of them. Their key persons have always had a strong understanding of their individual strengths as well as areas for development, all guided by the EYFS curriculum.

Thanks to this, my older child was truly Reception-ready! She is now thriving socially and emotionally, and it's been amazing to see how far she has come-from a baby into a confident, well-rounded child.
I'm incredibly grateful to the GSN team for supporting my children's development and helping to fill in the gaps I couldn't always cover at home as a mum.
Another thing I really value is the high staff retention at GSN. Over the years, I've built genuine connections with many of the staff through daily handovers. It means a lot that my children are always greeted by familiar faces. children feel completely at ease-it a feels like almost their second home.

GSN has been amazing at supporting our son to settle into nursery. They are so welcoming, understanding and very patient. Our son has learnt so much from them already. He is always happy when we drop him off in the morning and racing to go in. When we pick him up, he has a huge smile and we feel that
reflects on how his day has been. The opportunities and events that GSN host are fantastic and a lovely way for parents to connect and get involved with their child during their day at nursery.

As a first-time parent, I was incredibly nervous about starting nursery. However, the staff made the transition seamless. My child runs in with a smile every morning and has built such a strong bond with their key worker and all the staff . It truly feels like a 'home away from home' where he is nurtured
and loved. Highly recommend for all working parents and the ones who are looking best for their children!!

The absolute best nursery. My second now goes here, almost 3 years after my first attended. I went to visit other nurseries and they were nowhere near as good in terms of staff, activities, learning and outdoor space. Growing Stars are very welcoming, attentive and understanding with your child's progression
and needs. Couldn't have gone anywhere else, even though we live further away now, because I knew that my little one would be in the safest hands. Thank you Growing Stars Nursery!

Growing Stars Nursery has been a fantastic experience for our family. My son has attended since age 3 (Sept 2023) and he loves the extra-curricular activities like Wild Fangs, Forest School, Sing and Sign and Lunge and Leap, which make learning exciting. The long-standing staff show strong leadership
and a positive environment, supporting both children and parents. They hold curriculum workshops and fundraise for charities too.
The nursery encourages independence, confidence and celebrates a wide range of cultural festivals, reflecting the community's diversity. They invest in new learning resources and organise local trips to shops, the post office and care homes, helping children gain real-life skills.
Through role play, outings and daily routines, children are guided to be independent, resilient, curious, respectful and creative. The setting is inclusive and supportive, and I highly recommend Growing Stars Nursery!

I couldn't be happier with Growing Stars Nursery in Harrow Weald. Both of my children have been cared for here - my eldest, who is now 8 years old, attended this nursery, and my youngest is currently still there. From the start, the nursery has been nothing but amazing.
The staff are truly wonderful.
They are warm, welcoming, and genuinely care about the children. I can honestly say I trust them 100% with my kids, which is something every parent hopes for. My youngest absolutely loves going to nursery every day, and it's clear to see how much she enjoys her time there.
Growing Stars has been a huge part of my children's early years, and I'm so grateful for the safe, loving, and nurturing environment they provide. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a place where their child will be well cared for, supported, and happy.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.961)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.961) out of 10 for Growing Stars Nursery Harrow Weald 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 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 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 4.961 for Growing Stars Nursery Harrow Weald is calculated as follows: ( (425 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 441 Ratings = 4.961
  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 Growing Stars Nursery Harrow Weald is based on 37 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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 37 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.
