This is the best nursery ever! I placed my son at this nursery in 2017 and I am extremely happy with the staff, quality of learning, culture and environment. I love it so much that I now have my daughter who is 2 years old and my 6-month-old, go to this nursery. It is outstanding and I have tried many
other nurseries, but nothing compares to this. Just amazing, that's all I can say.

Fantastic nursery! Can’t recommend it enough. Staff are always friendly and approachable. The communication and feedback are great. The daily routine for the kids is educational and well organised. They even do webinars for parents which are really helpful. My son started here at 12 months old and he
has been thriving and he is now 2 years old. He definitely enjoys his nursery days and is learning a lot. Thanks to all staff working here for making it such a wonderful place.

I placed my daughter with Bright Little Stars when she was 10months old… she is now 3years old and enjoys going to the Nursery every day. She has made great friendships with a lot of the kids in all her classes.
Seeing her being comfortable and enjoying her day brings us a lot of comfort as we know
our child is secure and happy.
We are provided with daily updates and with the new app they share lovely photos of her and keep us updated with how she is progressing.
Allowing us access to the cameras also gives us the opportunity to see what she is up to daily.
I would highly recommend Bright Little Stars, each member of staff are very pleasant and comfortable to speak to and to raise any concerns you may have.


Keep up the great work.

We moved our daughter here when she was 2.5 years old and it is by far the best decision we ever made. The nursery itself is very bright, clean and welcoming, perfect to engage and welcome a child. The staff are always smiling, approachable and make every effort to keep parents up to date with their
child's development. They host a variety of themed days such as colour day, favourite book character day etc which always keep my daughter entertained and excited. In particular, we are very impressed with the different learning platforms available to us such as webinars and home learning activities to help us help our child at home in coordination with the nursery. If you are looking for a nursery that will develop your child from all angles, this is the place to come to.

Best decision we ever made.
My son joined at the tender age of 14 months and has only thrived. The purpose-built facilities are clean, vibrant and fun. The staff are well trained, astute, friendly and always happy to discuss any issues you may have concerning your child’s development. The management
team are just as helpful and are always friendly.

My daughter is ‘spirited’ and born during lockdown and I visited a number of nurseries before choosing this one, not only are the facilities and activities provided amazing, the Milky Way room leader was so lovely and helped the transition process immensely by providing extra playgroups and settling
in sessions to help my baby adjust from being in lockdown and not around people or other babies to being comfortable with the new environment. As a really concerned parent, this was so helpful and has really assisted my family in what is a hard process. The room leader and the Milky Way team are amazing and her assurances and care for the babies are a real comfort

It has been three years since my older child started Bright Little Stars Harrow. He is currently in the Supernova room and will start school in September. As parents, we are very happy with the service we have been receiving from the nursery. It has been such a homely environment that both my children
settled very easily. My younger child started as a baby and now she is in the Orion room and turned into a chatterbox and a confident girl. All the facilities the nursery provides are excellent right from extra curriculum activities to classroom activities. The staff are very caring and creative. The management team are doing an excellent job to maintain the service at its best.

Started our journey with Bright Little Stars Nursery with my son in March'21, since then I have seen many changes in my son. He has become very social, self-eater, vocabulary has increased many folds. He loves going to the nursery every day and comes fully exhausted. There are many interactive fun sessions
in their curriculum for the kids to enjoy! Highly recommend this to parents who are seeking an interactive, fun learning sessions for our toddlers.

My little boy has been at Bright Little Stars Harrow since he was eleven months old. I cannot recommend this nursery enough. The facilities are brilliant, especially their outdoor areas and my little boy has loved attending. The meals made onsite are nutritious and they cater for all. When allowed,
their extracurricular activities have been varied and engaging, from Spanish lessons, gymnastics, sports and more. Communication is excellent from management, providing weekly learning bulletins, updating us on the activities planned and in particular around Covid-19. The real asset to this nursery is its staff. I have not come across a single person, from reception, teachers, management to catering who have not been friendly and supportive. Teachers from different classes will often say hello and recognise the children, which makes it a lot easier for them when they move into the next room. I know I can always drop an email or speak to the staff when requiring support.

Fantastic nursery - bright, vibrant and vivid colours. The staff are very friendly and caring and look after our little one extremely well. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bright Little Stars Harrow to anyone.
Yes, it can be expensive but then all childcare is! Our son has developed so much thanks to
all he has learnt here!
Communication with the nursery is also very good - they always send informative emails. During the1st COVID-19 lockdown, we were extremely grateful that they managed to stay open and allow children to attend whilst parents worked from home. They provided discounts for those that didn't want to send their children and even gave a small discount to those that did attend (which they didn't have to!)
Overall we are very pleased that we are sending our son to Bright Little Stars Harrow.

My daughter has gone to Bright Little Stars since March this year. She started when she was 10 months and the nursery was fantastic. Always warm and welcoming. My daughter has already learnt so much since attending here and is always excited to go nursery. During the circumstances of covid going on
the nursery have always communicated well and kept parents up to date with any changes. They also keep you up to date on your child’s day to day activities/food/nappies and also offer a nursery cam at which you can sign into with your own log in to see what your child is up to! Definitely recommend!

Extremely satisfied with every aspect and cannot expect anything better for the most precious thing in our lives. Having a camera is the cherry on the top. My daughter has got into 4 of the 5 best independent schools and the confidence she displayed and learnings she gained in the last couple of years
at Bright Little Stars Harrow is outstanding. 100% credit to her success in her upbringing goes to Bright Little Stars Harrow and the support staff. They know her much better than parents. Foundation is perfectly laid by Bright Little Stars Harrow.

My daughter had been attending the nursery from the first day they opened.
The nursery nurses are warm and welcoming, kind and fair and all the things that you wish for a person looking after your child.
I cannot thank them enough for making my daughter happy and safe in the best nursery there is.

Bright Little Stars Harrow has been a great experience for our children since they joined. The staff are friendly, enthusiastic and highly skilled at making the children feel welcome and settled. The facilities are excellent both in the classroom and the spacious garden/play area. The children really
enjoy the mealtimes due to the extensive changing menu and they also like to get involved in the additional classes that are held including Spanish and music.

My daughter started with the Orion room a couple of years ago. Back then it was good as maybe the building was new, of late the quality has degraded substantially. Nothing new (no extra curricular) activities are introduced. In 2018 my rating would have been good to excellent, but currently it's just
do-able. A high price with no value for money.

I have two daughters attending Bright Little Stars Harrow (3yrs and 8months). They both love attending the nursery and thoroughly enjoy learning and participating in all the activities offered. The extra-curricular activities are great especially Spanish! The nursery itself is a fun and bright environment
and I believe it provides the backdrop for more effective learning. They have a very good security system and offer parents to log into their nursery webcam service, which is reassuring when you want to see what your children are doing. They both really enjoy being with the teachers, they are supportive and nurturing. Overall we are very pleased with the nursery and would highly recommend to others.

The nursery has a lovely environment, it is always very clean. The staff are super caring and very professional. I can really see they have formed a great relationship with my child.
He absolutely loves it there and it is exciting to see the things he learns and shows us at home.
It's comforting
to know that my child is happy, healthy and looked after and learning in such a fun way - it just feels like his second home!
It is comforting to have the webcam, especially when they are transitioning to different rooms. The website parent area is very useful too, and methods of communication with home and nursery are on point.
The structure and activities on a daily basis are great following the stages of the Early Years Foundation Stage and developing my child in all areas. They have great resources and toys.
My child loves the food and always eats more than one portion! Overall I am so pleased I found such a wonderful nursery. Thanks BLS

Lovely clean, fresh learning environment. Staff are attentive, friendly and tailor their work with each child to help meet individual needs.
My daughter is almost two years old and she has been attending since she was ten months old. She loves her time at nursery and looks forward to going there.
The
staff have encouraged her development in language beyond my expectations. The extracurricular clubs which are included are brilliant, especially Spanish! My daughter can count to ten in Spanish already!
The preparation for big school looks very well thought out and there are regular parent (and even grandparent) involvement sessions.
The food is nutritionally balanced and varied over a four week menu.
It is slightly pricier than surrounding options but in my opinion, well worth it.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.375)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.375) out of 10 for Bright Little Stars Harrow 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 12 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 4.685 for Bright Little Stars Harrow is calculated as follows: ( (103 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.685

  • 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 4.69 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Little Stars Harrow is based on 12 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 87 number of registered child places is 17.4. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.4 = 0.69

  • 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.
