At Shooting Stars, children are cared for in beautifully designed, calming environments where they feel safe, valued and inspired. Every day is thoughtfully created to spark curiosity, build confidence and nurture each child’s unique potential.
Our flexible approach blends child‑led exploration with gently guided learning experiences, ensuring every area of the EYFS is supported. With spacious indoor areas and exceptional secure outdoor spaces, children enjoy meaningful play, moments of wonder and opportunities to connect with nature.
Above all, we believe children thrive when they feel truly understood. Our caring teams take time to get to know every child, helping them settle quickly and grow with confidence, independence and joy.
A Calm, Inspiring Environment
We carefully design our spaces to be welcoming, uncluttered and soothing — giving children the freedom to explore without overwhelm. Neutral tones, natural textures and open layouts create an environment where children can focus, play purposefully and feel at ease.
Learning That Feels Natural
Our blended learning approach brings together:
- child‑led, open‑ended exploration, and
- adult‑guided experiences
This balanced style ensures each child meets key developmental milestones while enjoying a relaxed, nurturing and joyful early years experience. Explore our bespoke Pedagogy here.
Preparing Children for Their Next Steps
We support children to develop the skills, confidence and independence they need for a smooth transition to school. From social skills and emotional wellbeing to early literacy, numeracy and self‑care, we help children feel ready — and excited — for the journey ahead, always reflecting our mission to help children embrace the world with curiosity and joy. Discover our Preschool here.
Working in Partnership With Families
Strong, respectful relationships with parents create the best outcomes for children. In line with our mission, we work closely with families to ensure every child feels secure, supported and celebrated.
You’ll be kept informed every step of the way through:
- regular updates and observations via eyLog
- warm daily communication
- scheduled parent partnership meetings
Our teams are always here to listen, support and share your child’s progress.

Your Peace of Mind Matters
Safety and wellbeing sit at the heart of everything we do.
All staff are fully vetted, rigorously trained and Paediatric First Aid qualified. Each room and garden at every nursery also features our secure ParentCam system, giving you the reassurance of online visibility throughout the day whenever you need it. Find your peace of mind here.
Supporting Families Every Step of the Way
We believe supporting families means more than providing exceptional childcare — it also means offering clarity, flexibility and reassurance. Our fee structure is transparent and easy to understand, with consistent monthly billing to help you plan with confidence. We offer both term‑time and stretched funding options, and our knowledgeable team is on hand to guide you through government funding applications, ensuring you receive the support you’re entitled to. From your first enquiry onwards, we’re here to make your childcare journey as smooth, supportive and stress‑free as possible.
