Our Hinckley nursery, which opened in 2013, is located on Mount Road close to Hinckley town centre and just a short distance from the motorway. The original building has been refurbished to an extremely high standard to create light, warm and nurturing environments in which your child will feel both at ease and inspired. The close proximity of the town centre amenities provides opportunities for educational and enjoyable planned outings to enrich the learning experience of the children.
Shooting Stars Nursery Hinckley has an established staff team caring for children aged from 3 months to 5 years. The nursery has bright spacious rooms in which the children can learn and develop. Each room has qualified and dedicated staff, who specialise in each age group to ensure that each child reaches their full potential. We encourage and support all staff to advance their professional qualifications to the fullest extent. All meals are produced by our cook onsite and our menus are reviewed regularly to provide a healthy and balanced diet that the children enjoy.
At Shooting Stars, we recognise the importance of working in partnership with parents and we are committed to meeting the needs of the children by consulting with parents and carers on a regular basis. Our management and staff team have an ‘open door policy’ and so encourage you to talk to us whenever you would like to about your child’s needs, progress and development. We also love to hear about what your child has been interested in at home so we can ensure continuity of care when at nursery.

What Parents Say
“Really pleased with our daughter's development and particularly since moving to Pre School 2 where the play based learning is excellent.“
“The staff are all fantastic, caring and genuinely care about the children’s well-being. They make it a fun environment and the children learn so much through play. They also help prepare the children (and parents) for school.“
“The staff make special connections with the children which is evident on pick up when they are happy to stay playing. I have already referred friends to this nursery after being referred ourselves.“
