Review from Georgia H (Mother of Child) published on 11 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our twins joined Beaming Stars in August and they took to it right away. They are so excited to get to nursery and they reach out for their key workers, excited to see them and spend the day with them.


The nursery have been nothing but professional at all times and keep the parent up to date throughout

the day. We receive regular photos and communications from them and they are very responsive should I ever need to contact them.


They have a huge soft play area which the kids absolutely love and lovely outdoor settings which the kids get to use every day. They also go above and beyond with extra events such as the Halloween party we recently attended or the christmas ceramics making.


We are so thankful we found beaming stars and look forward to being with them for a long time to come :)

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son started here in the summer and has had the most amazing experience so far. We regularly receive photos of him smiling , happy and engaged in a variety of creative and exciting activities both inside and outdoors. The space and facilities are helping him to thrive, better than any we have seen.
Having a soft play, huge outdoor play area and sand pit are perfect for children as energetic as mine!
We get a daily update about what he is doing and it is a fun filled day where he explores and builds his skills. He loves messy play and gets lots of opportunities for this.
His language skills and pro social behaviour have greatly improved since moving to this nursery and the team are fantastic. They show a genuine care and dedication to him and his development and are attentive to his personal needs. We believe he is safe and happy here and trust them completely. There is a huge level of professionalism and it is very much valued.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Beaming stars has been amazing.
My daughter is extremely clingy but the settling period went smoothly and from our first tour round, my daughter happily left my side to play.
They have so much for the children to do, age, ability and interest taken into account. They're always up to different activities!
They have a wonderful set up with a soft play, outside garden area (or two!) and a woodland space for the children - I often find myself wanting to come in and play instead of dropping her off.
Beaming stars isn't my first nursery experience but it's definitely been my best, we only need to suggest nursery to my daughter and she runs and gets her shoes on!!
I'm so pleased we found it when we did. Massively recommend and have no negatives.

Review from Ryan D (Father of Child) published on 3 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We placed our child in this new nursery in Edenbridge, having been at another local nursery for various reasons that we share with other parents. At the time, Beaming Stars Edenbridge had just started to get going.
We both find that we are far less stressed with our child's care and well being, that
our child is in a much better environment surrounded by staff, and that our child seems much happier to be around.
We both enjoy the variety of facilities our child is exposed to. The soft play apparatus/area is a great facility that our child greatly enjoys.
The management and staff are good and prompt with communication and transparent, which honestly is such a welcome behaviour we really appreciate. Updates are regular via their app, which is great!
We would strongly recommend this Nursery to other parents for their little ones - this is a good and safe environment, and our child is happy here!

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.866)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.866) out of 10 for Beaming Stars Day Nursery Edenbridge 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 5 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 4.949 for Beaming Stars Day Nursery Edenbridge is calculated as follows: ( (56 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.949
  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 3.917 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Beaming Stars Day Nursery Edenbridge is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 60 number of registered child places is 12. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.417
  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.
