We’ve had all four of our kids go through this nursery and they have all been so happy and those that are at school started confidently! Organisation has been a little sporadic through the years, but more recently, very good management and communication from the staff that we see. We love the friendliness
of the staff and how much our kids seem to learn and have fun.

Being a grandmother, I have not been in a playschool for a very long time and also due to covid, I was put at ease straight away with all the precautions that were put in place to keep the children and staff safe. I cannot thank the staff at Canterbury enough for all the support they have given to me.
Their passion in their job role shines through, they are truly amazing. I would highly recommend this nursery to everybody. The children always come home happy and they will tell me about their time there. The family app is very useful. Well done to all, keep up the amazing work that you are doing.

My child started at the nursery with very little social skills after lockdown, and she has developed so much. Lovely, friendly staff. I’m so happy that I decided to send my child here.
The food also is very good and nutritious.

My little boy has only been attending Tiny Stars for around 5-months, but in this short space of time, he has really developed and is becoming a more confident little boy. He has settled in so quickly and has a good relationship with the staff members. Staff are always so accommodating, friendly and
will always update you on how his day has been by keeping regular contact. So far, I can not fault the experience, and I hope that my little boy will continue to attend Tiny Stars for as long as he can.

Reply from Elisa Bullard-Cripps, Manager at Tiny Stars Day Care Canterbury

Dear Rachel,
Thank you so much for your review! We are delighted that your son has made so much progress during his time with us. We have seen how he has grown in confidence, and we are all committed to ensuring that his journey with us is filled with positive learning and development and lots of fun too!

Extremely happy with the care my child receives, before he started he could not string a sentence together, couldn't count and didn't even know the alphabet.
Since attending Tiny Stars he has learnt so much.

My son has settled well, was extremely worried because he wasn’t a child that was around a lot of people and left alone without me.
He’s excited to go to nursery and he really enjoys it. I have seen him develop from when he started and staff are really good with him.

My daughter started in November and to say she loved it from the off and settled well is an understatement. She joined from a different nursery due to us moving and I was really anxious about her starting again at a new nursery, but all the staff have been amazing with her, and have kept me updated
throughout her few months of being a Tiny Star, so thank you.

Excellent nursery with very caring and friendly staff that form a real connection with the children. My son has been going to this nursery for just over a year and has developed well and enjoyed it so much. Communication with parents is thorough, particularly via the app, and a fun range of activities
are carried out. I have recommended this nursery to a few friends who have then had similar positive experiences since they placed their children here.

My girls love it there, they are always very excited to go. As it is a small nursery the children get to know all the teachers, which I find amazing. They have a great relationship with the teachers and always come home with lots of drawings or crafts.

My daughter is my only child so choosing a nursery was difficult as I dreaded leaving my little one in the hands of strangers. After visiting a number of nurseries in the area I found Tiny Stars and I am so glad I did. It's small and she has settled very quickly (and so did I). The staff are genuinely
interested in the children and care about their wellbeing and development. I am very happy to recommend this lovely nursery.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I was very nervous about sending my child to nursery at a young age (9 months) but Tiny Stars put my mind at ease within the very first day. My child's development went from strength to strength and continues to do so. The interaction with the staff and other children provides so many benefits, and
every day I can see that my child is happy and content. I am provided with a rundown of what has happened throughout the day, what meals were had and naps taken. The staff take the time to listen to any changes that may occur in my child's routine and do their best to implement said changes - child cooperation dependent! I would recommend Tiny Stars in a heartbeat!
