Shooting Stars Nurseries at Kings Norton

My little boy is in the baby room. He started in January. He’s settled so well, and I’m so pleased with all the lovely activities he gets to join in with. He loves climbing and playing outside. The staff are so friendly and caring, and they have got to know him so well. We love Shooting Stars!

Shooting Stars nursery is amazing. My son started in September 2021 and really struggled with socialising with other children, but since going to Shooting Stars, he is much more confident in approaching other children to play. My child is a super fussy eater, but recently, he has been encouraged by the nursery to try new things, and him being in this new setting with the other children, has really helped. Thank you, Shooting Stars, I have a happy, confident little boy.

My daughter has been attending this nursery for almost 2-years, and it was the best decision we made to choose Shooting Stars. The standard is exceptional both, safety, day to day care of our child, education, a wide range of activities, huge outside space and also their warmth and friendliness towards us as parents. All staff, management and catering staff are so friendly and genuinely care about the children in their care and their health and development. I could not rate or recommend this nursery and its staff more highly.

My son has been going to Shooting Stars nursery since he was 7-months-old, so for almost 3-years now. All of the staff are amazing, and I feel so comfortable leaving my son with them. They all go above and beyond to make the kids feel happy and it really shows. I will be sad when the time comes for my son to start big school and leave the nursery. They have helped my son in so many different ways, and I am very grateful to them for taking such good care of him.

Highly recommend Shooting Stars at Kings Norton. The girls and the manager have been great. When I come there is a warm feeling, all the staff are friendly. I always feel comfortable and safe leaving my son. Thank you very much, Shooting Stars, for helping my son!

My son started in lockdown, and we had recently moved from Somerset. It was a difficult time and daunting taking him to a new childcare provider.
However, the staff were amazing and welcoming. He quickly settled in and mentions staff by name at home.
The facilities are lovely. The food is brilliant, and it’s reassuring to see from the daily report that he has eaten everything.
I also sent my mum to collect my son. However, I had forgotten to give her the password. The manager ensured that I was called and this was checked out. We were both impressed with this standard of safeguarding.
I would recommend Shooting Stars to any parent.

I could not be happier with Shooting Stars Kings Norton. My son is in the baby room and since starting in September, I can’t believe how much he has developed. He loves going to nursery and I always feel that, whichever member of staff I talk to they know him so well. The children take part in so many wonderful activities and the communication that we receive is excellent. As a first time mum, going back to work and sending my little baby to be cared for by others was so tough. But I know how well looked after he is and I could not recommend this setting highly enough.

My son has been attending for 3-months now and absolutely loves it. The staff are all so friendly and greet you even if you haven’t met before. The building is large, clean and has excellent facilities. The baby room is very spacious, and the children are always playing outside, in the mud kitchen, on the climbing frame and with the preschoolers at the end of the day. The food choice is great, very healthy, and the staff has been so accommodating and diligent in applying the cream for my child’s eczema. I’ve never had any issues with lost items like some nurseries seem to. Staff give a good debrief at pick up, in addition to the daily diary and regular observations with photos – I look forward to these so much. Overall, I am very pleased with the nursery and staff and couldn’t recommend it highly enough – I have heard complaints from other nurseries that are nearly double the price!

My son has been at this nursery for over a year now, and he loves it. He comes home after his day, and he has so much excitement in telling me how his day has been. The staff are encouraging and caring. They have really made a positive impact on my son and his development. There are always friendly faces to greet us every morning. The open space in the garden is amazing, with all kinds of fun learning through play. The rooms are open, light and safe. My son loves the food and tries things I never thought he would even try; he gets good choices and is always offered fruit and vegetables. On picking my son up, I love to hear the singing that’s coming from the different rooms. I feel very comfortable leaving my son in the hands of the staff here, and I know that staff won’t hesitate to challenge something if they believe it needs to be challenged. Overall, Shooting Stars deserve the ‘outstanding’ Ofsted report.

My daughter has developed leaps and bounds since starting in the baby room and is now in Toddlers. Great facilities, indoors and out, fantastic staff that are always accommodating and nurturing towards the children, and on collection my daughter always says “I’ve had a lovely day today mommy!” that’s the best feedback you can get.
