July 5, 2021 at 12:00 amBoth my boys attend Little Stars Nursery Stirling and they love it, they sometimes even ask to go at the weekend! The staff are lovely, professional and I trust them to do the best for my boys. Nothing is too much bother for them. The boys do a wide range of activities at the nursery every day and are taken outside into the fabulous outdoor spaces as much as possible, which is a big advantage over some other nurseries in the area. The large capacity of the nursery means they can be accommodating when it comes to requesting any additional days or changes to days. My older boy will be going to school next year and the nursery is encouraging him to learn at his own pace, recently he’s been excited to learn about numbers and counting. It gives me great peace of mind to know that when we drop our boys off at nursery, they will be well looked after, stimulated and happy.

July 8, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son started in February and to say I was nervous, with not only coming out of covid but with how he would be, was an understatement. The nursery staff and management have been amazing, accommodating and he loves it. The manager was so reassuring when we first met her and put me and my nerves completely at ease. My son gets excited every morning to go to nursery and adores all the staff, as well as his key worker, this is because all the staff make an effort and this is very clear. They work very hard and this is clear by how much the kids love them and have fun at the nursery.

August 3, 2021 at 12:00 amMy child has been at Little Stars Nursery since she was 10 months old, she has always enjoyed it and is consistently happy when we pick her up and drop her off, there has even been a couple of times she hasn’t want to come home! She seems to recognise and get excited to see, not just her friends, but the staff members too. The day ranges full of exciting activity for them and I love that she is out getting involved in different things. It’s been difficult with covid as we haven’t been allowed into the nursery but I feel like we have been kept up to date, I especially like the reviews and the pictures you get of them playing and updates on their days. These little details reassure me she is being well looked after.

August 4, 2021 at 12:00 amWe’ve used Little Stars Stirling for both our girls and always have had an excellent experience with them. The staff are wonderful – warm, friendly and welcoming and really know the children in their care. They do a lot of stimulating activities and our younger daughter, who currently attends, is always so excited to be going to nursery. Highly recommend.

October 25, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son settled in really quickly at Little Stars, and is always happy and smiling when I pick him up. I think he’s really benefited from the social aspect of both the staff and the other kids.
The staff are lovely and all seem genuinely passionate about the little man’s progress. It’s nice to see other people get excited over the little milestones (such as learning the word ‘chicken’).
The weekly newsletter is a nice touch, and the nursery keeps you well updated. It’s good to see what the different age groups are up to as well, as it gives you an idea of where your little one will be when they’re older. I also enjoy the updates through Learning Journal, and it’s great to see photos of my son smiling while doing some messy activity that I don’t have to clean up!

October 25, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son really enjoys his time in the nursery. They do different activities daily which keep him interested and learning. Rugby has been a hit with him so would love to see the kids enjoying more sport activities. Staff friendly, caring, and offer good updates daily. I like the weekly parent memo to keep us up to date.

November 3, 2021 at 12:00 amFriendly staff who always provide new and interesting activities for the children. My son may fuss about going to nursery but is always happy while he is there.
Despite poor weather, the staff manage to get the children outside to stretch their legs.

November 3, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Little Stars nursery for three months now and has settled in really well. The staff are friendly and very attentive – my son has made some close connections with them. I never feel rushed if I want to chat about my son’s progress at pick up. He also gets to paint and do activities we don’t have the space or equipment for at home. The social side of nursery has really helped him come out of his shell too and he loves to watch and play with other children. The nursery give us a daily paper slip that has information of food eaten, sleep and nappies changed which is really helpful. We receive a weekly newsletter via e-mail which is always a good read as it is lovely to hear what the children get up to. We also get a weekly update of what our son has been up to on the Learning Journals app, including photos. We are very happy with the nursery and would recommend.

November 4, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has settled in well to the nursery and staff are really welcoming and interested in her development and wellbeing. Love that the kids get lots of time playing outdoors and Rugby Tots Tuesdays is a big hit with our daughter.
We have regular communication from the nursery in the form of daily report cards, weekly memos, and her online learning journal and I love seeing photos of the fun activities the kids have been up to.

November 15, 2021 at 12:00 amWe recently moved our children to Little Stars after a bad experience at another nursery. We were welcomed with open arms. My girls love the staff. They love the outdoor play and rugby tots sessions. Staff are incredibly helpful and always reply promptly to communication. We get daily updates and weekly newsletters which is great. it is a lovely nursery and we are very happy.

February 3, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son loves going to nursery. He has settled in well and loves the staff. He is full time, and we feel calm knowing that he is happy and enjoying himself at nursery. He learns loads and is developing his skills really well thanks to the staff. I like the balanced snacks, and also how the nursery accepted cloth nappies with no problem. Really helpful staff and easy going. Definitely the best choice.

February 3, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter is happy to go in every time. I would definitely recommend the nursery to others. Staff are always helpful and kind and they all seem to enjoy being around children. Management is helpful and patient and always there whenever I have a question/issue.

February 14, 2022 at 12:00 amOur two boys attend Little Stars and they both love it. The staff are wonderful they are so caring and really take the time to get to know the children. Nothing is ever too much bother. They arrange great activities and there’s plenty to keep all the children entertained.

March 2, 2022 at 12:00 amFrom day one the staff have been so amazing with my daughter. I was concerned about her going to nursery due to her young age – but its obvious that she loves attending. She always smiles when I drop her off with a staff member – and it’s clear they all really love their jobs! I really appreciate the regular communication too. This is in the form of daily journal notes (what my daughter has been up to, feeding, nappies, etc.), a weekly newsletter, and the online journal (where I adore being able to see photos of my daughter taking part in activites).

March 16, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has now been at Little Stars Nursery for almost a year, and we are so grateful for the wonderful staff that look after him. Our son is genuinely excited every time we drop him off, and we have noticed such a difference in his communication and development. It makes a huge difference knowing that your child is safe and happy when you are at work, and I would recommend Little Stars to anyone.

June 12, 2022 at 12:00 amMy little girl has been at little stars for nearly ten months and she loves it! She is so happy going into nursery in the mornings, and can’t wait to get in the door! Activities are varied which is great for little ones! The staff are great at keeping us up to date with her day, and we love the little diary that is filled out every day to see what she’s been up to!
We couldn’t wish for better care for our daughter. Thank you everyone!

June 12, 2022 at 12:00 amI absolutely love this nursery for my kids, I have had both my children in this nursery from ten months. I am approaching a point where my eldest will be leaving after the summer to go to school nursery, although we have made this decision to help our daughter progress and prepare for school I will be utterly gutted that she is leaving.
The girls in the baby room and bumble bee room are amazing, I genuinely can see the bond they have with my children and can tell how much they care for them. They are genuinely interested and care for them with love and attention as a parent would. They are always doing activities and they are outside playing too, you get an update of what they have done every day and pictures on the app which I love to see. It’s been hard through covid with my youngest as we couldn’t properly take him in but he loves it. It must be such a difficult job but I hope they know how brilliantly they do! The staff make it.

June 12, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son loves attending the nursery and his confidence has continued to grow. There is a lot of variety to the day and an emphasis on the outdoors which enriches the overall nursery experience. The staff are very caring which makes a world of difference.

June 20, 2022 at 12:00 amOur little one has settled perfectly at Little Stars and I can’t be any happier myself, this nursery breaks the mould of stereotypical nurseries not being flexible, they are always happy to accommodate where they can which is a huge help to us with one parent working offshore. The ladies are always friendly and communication is excellent. Look forward to a number of years for our girl here!
