Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter had a great time in the nursery and she still miss the nursery environment. She is going to school now but always she remembers the lovely teachers from nursery. Our experience overall was great and I will highly recommend Growing Stars Nursery. My daughter developed good skills in her daily
routine and she is putting these into practice. She always took about being kind and respectful with the others , and this is thanks to the teacher.
The staff is well trained and the nursery provides lots of activities and opportunities in teaching and learning the children to achieve the best outcome.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a grandmother, it fills me with such joy to see how happy and confident my grandchild has become since joining this nursery. Every time I visit or hear stories about the day, it's clear that the staff truly care for each child as if they were their own. The atmosphere is always welcoming, cheerful,
and full of laughter - exactly what you'd hope for in those early years.


The team go above and beyond to create a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment. My grandchild comes home excited to share songs, crafts, and things she has learnt - and I love hearing about all the adventures and friendships she's making.


It's such a comfort to know that they are in such capable and caring hands every day. I can't thank the nursery staff enough for the love, patience, and dedication they show. You are helping to build the happiest of memories and a wonderful foundation for the future.

I was invited to a stay and play for grandparents day, this was my first opportunity to see the nursery and it's set up, and it was fantastic, it has a lovely homely feeling to it, the staff were really nice and welcoming made me a cup of tea and I even got a slice of cake !!! My grandson seems to be
really happy here and was really confident showing me all the things he likes to play with and all the different areas, he has settled in amazingly well as he has only been attending for a month.
I highly recommend this nursery to anyone in the area looking for childcare the staff take exceptional care of the children and ensure they are doing fun and interesting things every day and I can't wait for the next opportunity to visit !!

I attended a Grandparents Day and found the nursery atmosphere to be very friendly and supportive of the children. There's plenty of toys and games and the room was very open and spacious. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone looking to place their children.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started at Growing Stars Nursery in Jan 2025 and she has loved going to Nursery since day one. The staff are so welcoming and lovely. They look after the children well. My daughter has picked up so much since starting and she is only 2 years of age. She is so independent that I miss helping
her with certain things. Overall I am very happy for choosing Growing Stars Nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started attending Growing Stars Nursery Canons Park in October 2024. We've always felt welcomed, the staff are truly outstanding, they constantly show genuine care and passion for each child. It's clear to see how nurturing and attentive they are. I am so grateful for how much my son has flourished
in their care. He has made significant strides in his development and has become much more independent. The nursery itself is a clean and wonderful environment for children to learn and explore and my son particularly enjoys the outdoor space! It gives me peace of mind to know that he is in such capable hands. I sincerely appreciate all the support and care they provide. I love looking at the updates they provide about my son and seeing what he gets up to during his day. The communication from the nursery is excellent, with staff always willing to keep us updated. A huge thank you all for everything you all do!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.932)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.932) out of 10 for Growing Stars Nursery Canons Park 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.932 for Growing Stars Nursery Canons Park is calculated as follows: ( (111 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 117 Ratings = 4.932
  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 Canons Park is based on 10 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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 10 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.
