My 3-year-old son started nursery at Rising Stars Nursery at the end of April 2023. He was welcomed with open arms by the staff and children and is so excited to go there every day. He even sometimes asks to go to nursery when we’re home!
The staff couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. From the very
first visit, I immediately knew it was the place for us. I felt at ease and reassured that my child would be in safe, capable hands even though it was my first time being away from him for a long period of time.
They always give updates about how my son’s day went, so I’m not left wondering what he’s been learning and the activities always sound fun and thoughtful.
They are also very aware and careful of food allergies (my son has several) and make sure everyone is kept safe.
I’m so happy that we chose Rising Stars as our nursery. My son is thriving there and there’s nothing that could make me happier.

Excellent nursery and staff, so kind and friendly, absolutely great with my son. He comes home and tells me stories of what he has done at nursery that day with the staff and children, never had a problem and highly recommended.

The staff are always polite and friendly. I have had 5 children go to this nursery. My children loved it here. You are always greeted and you feel very welcomed when you talk to the staff. They always let you know what your child has been doing that day eg colouring a picture, painting, playing games
etc.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.742)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.742) out of 10 for Rising Stars Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.742 for Rising Stars Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (235 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 267 Ratings = 4.742

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Rising Stars Nursery is based on 22 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
