Very happy with how my child is getting on at the nursery. She has progressed a lot with her potty training and is always excited to go to nursery, and often loves telling us all about her day.

Since our daughter has been attending Stars Day Nursery, she has come on leaps and bounds.
She amazes us every day with what she learns and how well she interacts with all the other children.
The staff go above and beyond with activities and opportunities for learning; they are honestly great!
So
pleased that we chose this nursery for our daughter, and would recommend it in a heartbeat to anyone local looking for a nursery place for their child/ren.

Best nursery ever! My son has been going to Stars Day Nursery Bushfield since he was 9 months old and he is now 3 years old. He just loves going to Nursery as he enjoys everything that he does there! He talks about the practitioner all the time when he is home saying that they do a lot of activities
and that they are very good! I know that he is happy and the staff is just so great, friendly, creative and very organised! I would recommend this setting to anyone!

We located this nursery through an open day and signed up that same day. We are so pleased with his progress and how he appears to be within the setting. All the staff are wonderful and friendly.
Whilst we've had some difficult drop-offs following an absence of sickness/loss of routine we're back
to normal and he now enjoys going.
His key worker could not do more for him and keeps us up to date on his development.
I would happily recommend this placement to anyone.

We are lucky parents to have found this nursery! They are very kind, helpful and gentle staff. They do a lot of activities with children which help their development.
The room is very clean. I would recommend to other parents any time well-done staff.

My son is 2 years old and has just started attending this nursery and although we're not 100% there yet with him feeling comfortable enough to say goodbye to me or his dad as he's never had to leave us before, I know that after 10 minutes of dropping him off, he does calm down and I know that he really
enjoys himself. I have heard nothing but amazing reviews about this nursery and now I can see for myself why this is and I am glad I chose to send my son to this nursery over others local to me because the staff are so lovely and welcoming and it's obvious that they genuinely adore every child in their care. I am confident that my son will learn many things here and develop lots of skills needed to progress to the next level of his education. What I've seen and the service I've had so far, I would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents and will encourage them to send their children here because they will not regret it.

Where to start. My daughter has been here since she was around 6 months, she is now 3 years old. She's always so excited to see all her friends at the nursery each morning. The staff here are all so caring and show nothing but love to my daughter, it's so clear to see. They have truly played a big role
in her life and for which I am eternally grateful for. Highly recommended and could not thank everyone there enough for all you have done.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.830)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.830) out of 10 for Stars Day Nursery Bushfield is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 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 4.830 for Stars Day Nursery Bushfield is calculated as follows: ( (124 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 141 Ratings = 4.83

  • 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 Stars Day Nursery Bushfield 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8, which has been reached with 12 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.
