Great nursery my daughter loves it and the staff are so friendly and kind . Definately made the best choice .
I was a little unsure on bringing my daughter to a new nursery and not knowing anyone but really set in well straight away.
I love that my older daughter can see her sister in her lunch breaks
when playing and great transition up to big school

The staff really helped my son settle in and put my mind at rest as he seemed a little nervous in leaving me. He's made some great bonds with staff and peers and loves going in. He joins in a range of activities especially messy play which he loves. The staff have supported potty training. He looks
forward to going each week. We get sent photos to show what hes been up and regular parents evening and other events parents can attend. I would definitely recommend.

I am extremely grateful for the support and care my daughter receives at nursery. The staff are not only nurturing and attentive but also provide clear communication about her progress and next steps. I truly appreciate how they work closely with her and the other children in the setting. Their dedication
to supporting her growth and readiness for school goes above and beyond, and I feel confident knowing she is in such a caring environment.
As a teacher attached to the school I'm incredibly complimentary of how well the nursery prepare the children for school, they work together and set provision to prepare children for that big step into school.
Thankyou for everything you do!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started in October 2024, neither of us had been apart from each other so we knew starting nursery would be difficult for us both. Everyone was so caring and welcoming, I had updates on how she was settling in and often saw pictures which made me feel at ease. She absolutely loves going to
the nursery and always talks about the staff and her nursery friends. All the staff are so welcoming and friendly and I felt they went above and beyond to make sure my little girl settled quickly by putting things into to make things easier for her. She walks straight in now excited for the day ahead. The manager and the team are wonderful, I feel lucky we found a fantastic nursery for our little girl.

Such a lovely nursery. My son settled in there so quickly and the team were absolutely brilliant in helping with that. He’s so happy there. The staff are really caring and supportive and do such a great job in looking after the children - I really can’t fault them. I get regular updates on how my son
has been each day, which is also very helpful. The nursery itself is on the smaller side but this doesn’t seem to hinder at all as they really make use of their outdoor space and seem to have lots of different activities going on each day.

I cannot recommend this nursery more. Wonderful management team along with the other members of staff. My daughter loves going there every day, she has learned a lot since she first started. Almost every day she brings home some artwork. She sings so many songs and since September her speech has developed
so much. I feel comfortable talking to the members of staff about my concerns etc. They had helped me a lot during the difficult episodes we had. Thank you for everything!

My son loves going to nursery, the staff are so helpful, friendly and caring.
Communication is great, I’m always kept upto date and it’s wonderful to hear what my son has been doing during the day. If I have any concerns or need any support they are always there to listen. I have had two children
attended and would highly recommend to friends and family.

My experience with the nursery has been overall positive. My son has additional needs, and the nursery has been very supportive. He is preverbal and has been taught to use communication tools (Mackaton). The SENCO representative is always on the ball with his needs. My son is always very eager to go
to nursery as he enjoys being there. I am very happy and satisfied with the service the nursery is providing my son with.

We moved to Peterborough in May 2022; therefore, needed a nursery for our three-and-a-half-year-old son. Moving from London was stressful, but knowing that we found a great nursery for our son was reassuring. All staff are friendly, helpful, and most of all, approachable. My husband, son and I are very
happy. Staff at the setting are very understanding and listen to our needs regarding our son. Well done to all staff for their continued support and care.

An outstanding nursery setting - Stars Day Nursery Oakdale goes above and beyond for all children - nothing is ever too much of an ask.
I absolutely love all the free play that they offer; it's very child-led, and the staff are absolutely incredible at getting stuck in with all children making sure
their having the best day!
You can see the staff are team workers - making such a huge impact on the nursery!
The ladies are all spoken about very highly in our household by our little girl.
Attending the nursery is such a joy and a positive, happy space for our daughter - I feel at ease knowing she's in such a child-led, calm, joyful environment.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.867)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.867) out of 10 for Stars Day Nursery Oakdale is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.867 for Stars Day Nursery Oakdale is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 165 Ratings = 4.867
  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 Stars Day Nursery Oakdale is based on 14 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 26 number of registered child places is 5.2, which has been reached with 14 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.
