My little one loves this nursery, they have also taken care of my little one and given me great advise on how she is learning and developing, and there hasn't been no issues, couldn't thank everyone enough for always making her feel welcome and happy when she leaves the setting. She has learnt so much
since being here, it's lovely to see that everyone gets to know all the children in different rooms, must say aswell since the change in management it's always so nice to walk in and be happily welcomed and they are so easy to talk to and they acknowledge everyone who walks through the door so what a great change that was!

Little Stars Day Nursery has been the perfect place for our son. The staff are wonderful, welcoming and attentive. They always have a positive and professional manner and keep us updated on our son's day and progress. He has grown and learnt so much from the lovely nurturing environment that is provided
at Little Stars, as well as from the kind and caring staff and we are so glad that we chose this nursery.

The nursery practitioners are doing a great job and the way they work is amazing and I'm so happy that my child attends this nursery. They do a great job at teaching them and it reflects on my child. They always remember the small details about the children and it really is amazing.

Our son has been attending this nursery for the last 2.5 years. He has always enjoyed his time here and forged great bonds with members of staff and some of his peers. His language skills developed very quickly and has been a fluent communicator ever since. We can see the daily effort being put in to
make the children learn new things in a fun way. We feel quite comfortable leaving him here knowing that he is under good care!

Reply from Lucy Tirone, Manager at Little Stars Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your kind words. Your little one is coming on leaps and bounds and really does enjoy their time here! Happy to get stuck into all activities with peers and adults.

My child has been attending Little stars day nursery since the year of 2023. He started in toddlers and moved into the pre school room. Each and every staff member are phenomenal with him. Starting from the office ending in the room. Each drop off they make me feel at ease. And when Im back for the
pick up. The staff always share what they done during the day and what food has been given.
I would recommended this nursery.

Reply from Lucy Tirone, Manager at Little Stars Day Nursery

We are incredibly pleased with Little Stars Day Nursery. The staff do a great job of making each day unique which has contributed to our 2 year old son's growth.

Overall my experience is very good with Little Star Day Nursery. They are very kind to me and my kids. My kids have learned so many things from this nursery.
I can't thank enough all the staff at Little Stars Day Nursery for the way that they take care of my boys. Especially the manager of this nursery
is a very good lady she is a very cooperative person. Thank you all.

This nursery has been extremely good for literally over a decade, my eldest son went there over 19 years ago and we sent my daughter, my son and now my son of 4 years. They always wanted to come back to the nursery, the staff and the atmosphere have always been welcoming since I could remember.
This
nursery honestly has not failed me I have recommended it to my whole family and others.
Perfect place guys.

My little girl really loved going to this nursery. She seemed to improve with her learning here and also was very fond of the staff there. Two staff members in particular were her favourites along with another lady who she still bumps into occasionally. The play area outside was also a very big hit.
She is now at school but will still talk about nursery at times and remembers everyone.

Everything about the nursery is fantastic, the children are well looked after, they learn and they are supported by exceptional staff. The support from the Manager and the team is brilliant to parents and children alike, including taking on board feedback and helping parents to feel reassured when it
is needed.

Little Stars is more than a home from home for our two - it offers more fun, more learning, more snacks(!), more stimulation and more friendships than we can offer them at home. We couldn't be happier with, or more grateful to, the team.

My daughter has been going to this nursery since she was under two and has always returned happy and satisfied. I have had no reason to complain about the care afforded to her during her time at the nursery. I have been kept well informed about all the updates in advance relating to the setting and
I cannot thank enough all the staff who go over and beyond to provide the utmost care at this setting and assist children in meeting their developmental milestones.

Little Stars is an incredible nursery. I have my two children, a boy and a girl under the age of four attending, and I am more than confident in the care provided by the staff. My son has thrived so well in his learning and growth, and my baby girl has settled well with her primary person. I can't recommend
this nursery enough. The staff are wonderful, polite and keep you informed daily. The front-of-staff management has a well-rounded handle on things. I am so happy we found them. Thank you, Little Stars team; praying for increasing growth and wellness in the nursery.

The staff are very friendly and helpful.
I was nervous about leaving my daughter for the first time without me - she is quite shy.
However, as soon as l met her key worker and l saw how they interacted together, l calmed down.
My daughter is very excited about going to the nursery, she talks about
what she was doing there, and she asks about her key worker, even at the weekend.
I'm very grateful, and l can't recommend them enough.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.641)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.641) out of 10 for Little Stars Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.904 for Little Stars Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (155 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 167 Ratings = 4.904

  • b) 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 4.737 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Stars Day Nursery 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:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 95 number of registered child places is 19. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 19 = 0.737

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
