Rising Stars Romford

My little one seems very happy here and has developed well since starting. He always arrives and leaves with a smile on his face which is important to me. There seems to be a wide range of well thought out activities that the children are engaged in, and so it is not a case of just keeping them quiet! I feel satisfied that my little one is getting enough stimulation here, and the staff seem lovely.

We are extremely pleased with the level of care our children are experiencing at Rising Stars Nursery. They are absolutely happy and enjoying their time at the nursery. They have many learning opportunities through play. The environment is safe and staff are friendly and caring.

My son has been going to Rising Stars Romford for the last 2-years and the only times he has left without a smile on his face were due to him not wanting to leave! There is a caring feel to the place, and I feel confident his needs for his age are being met, in both his social and intellectual development.

Our 2 children started at Rising Stars in February. Unfortunately, they were only able to attend for a few weeks before we had to self isolate. However, in that time it was made very clear how amazing Rising Stars is. The staff are all very caring, kind, energetic and engaging. Our children were very happy with their carers. My son found settling difficult but we were never concerned that he wasn’t being comforted and supported in becoming more settled. Over the lockdown, we were kept in regular communication with the management and staff from the nursery. They sent us videos and activity ideas which was especially helpful for the children. When the children recently returned to nursery the staff were again wonderful in ensuring the children’s return was as easy as possible. My children run into nursery in the morning and never want to leave when they get picked up! They have both made progress and ultimately are happy and safe. The manager is amazing and her staff are fantastic.

My daughter has been at Rising Stars since she was 1 year old (now she is nearly 4 years old). For her, this is like a second family and everyday she is very excited and happy to attend the nursery. She developed very well, learning new social skills, new vocabulary and lots of other important things for her age. I cannot praise enough the team at Rising Stars for all their work with my daughter – they have created a safe and pleasant environment for the kids – plenty of activities to keep them engaged. The food is great – healthy, well cooked and homemade. My son will be going soon to the same nursery. Highly recommend.

I would be honest in giving feedback here to all the other parents looking for a nursery. My son loves going to the nursery every day and enjoys his time with kids. The best things about the nursery are the opening and close timing that suits our work times. The staff are very helpful and proactive in communicating my son’s progress using the daily report and the time adjustments based on personal situations during the Covid-19 pandemic times is much appreciated. My son has learnt a lot of things being at nursery such as at the weekly football sessions, enjoying festivals with friends and doing things independently. There are only a few things at top of my head for improvements, my son needs a bit of attention to avoid mistakes like a toilet and missing meals sometimes. It can be avoided by instructing him to visit restrooms after meals and checking meals. I strongly recommend this nursery. Thank you to all the staff and management team for their support in taking care of my son.

I can’t praise Rising Stars enough. I have seen my child’s development just grow and grow and has gained so much confidence ready to start reception and this is all down to the amazing team of staff at Rising Stars. My child started at the age of 18 months old, all the way to 4 years old. They made the settling-in period smooth and easy both for me and my child. The food at the nursery is amazing, very varied and always sounds yummy. My child has eaten more different types of lunches/ dinners here than at home. The day-to-day activities and learning is above and beyond what I expected, my child has learnt so much because of this. Rising Stars really makes you feel a part of the family and I can’t thank them enough for everything. My child was excited and happy to go in every day and always left with a massive smile, which explains it all! Would highly recommend Rising Stars to anyone.

My little boy absolutely loves going to nursery. When he first started, he took a long and painful 8 weeks to settle. However, the staff did everything to assure me that he would soon love attending and boy, were they right! I now struggle to get him to leave, even after a 10-hour day, and he has such a lovely rapport with every single member of staff. They’re extremely accommodating and easy to talk to and I am so happy with the progress my son has made.

I am heartbroken my kids are starting school and having to leave Rising Stars. My children have been going since they were 17 months old. The early years learnings are sensational. Aside from the basics of numeracy and literacy, my kids have learnt social skills like no other. They are such caring, kind and loving children and this is thanks to Rising Stars. The “family” feel of the nursery means that all the children know each other. There is so much outdoor space and my two rave about the food they get to eat. I couldn’t be more thankful for the amazing care you have shown my children. Thank you.
