My daughter has been at the nursery since she was around 4 months old. She was always a smiley baby and continues to be in the nursery too. She's a very contented little girl and all the staff at the nursery are great with her. She is developing very well there. Couldn't be happier with the nursery,
it's ticked all my boxes and gives peace of mind with the online area I can check throughout the day too, including pictures of her activities. The food they give her is great too and they have been very supportive of the weaning process. All in all brilliant!

I am very happy with Bright Stars Nursery. My child loves being there, which makes me feel so much happier leaving him in the hands of fantastic staff. My child also has a great bond with his key worker which is great and is learning a great deal of things whilst at Bright Stars Nursery.

This nursery is like home!
My daughter loves and enjoys her days at Bright Stars Nursery. Both dad and I know she is well cared for and has amazing staff around her.


I am truly sad that this is her last year here as everything about the nursery is just amazing!


I looked into other local nurseries

and when I walked in here I knew this was the one for my little girl and a year on I still feel the same...


Knowing your baby is looked after in such a way gives you the comfort as a parent.


Thank you to all the staff for always having a smile on...

Bright Stars Nursery is a wonderful nursery and I feel happy and confident sending my daughter here 4 days a week.
The environment is a lovely one with lots of free space for the children and a lovely garden area for outdoor play. The activities provided are helping my daughter to grow and learn each
day and staff are extremely friendly yet professional at the same time.
Would highly recommend!

My son has excelled since joining Bright Stars. The staff do their upmost to ensure the children are full engaged in learning centred around their individual interests. They are wonderfully creative in their approach to captivating and involving the children. Bright Stars is a nurturing environment
where children are encouraged to be more independent and responsible for themselves as they move through the pre-school room. We fully trust all the staff and have nothing but praise for the nursery and its management.

My child started in August 2015 aged 11 months and I have always felt confident that he is in safe hands. The manager and deputy are extremely approachable and friendly. His key worker and room staff are wonderful. Overall found that the entire staff work well as a team and I really feel like the staff
share the excitement of the different milestones that my child and others achieve. I am kept well informed with parents evening and newsletters that are informative with a personal touch. I also have daily reports of what he has eaten, slept and observations via a secure online portal. The facilities are beautiful inside and outdoors providing an enriched learning environment for my child. I definitely recommend the nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.916)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.916) out of 10 for Kindred Cheshunt Nursery and Pre-School 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 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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 4.916 for Kindred Cheshunt Nursery and Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (395 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 429 Ratings = 4.916

  • 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 Kindred Cheshunt Nursery and Pre-School is based on 36 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 75 number of registered child places is 15, which has been reached with 36 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.
