Both our nursery at Farrington Gurney and our dedicated baby & toddler suite at Elm Hayes Surgery, Paulton offer a safe environment where children can explore, experiment, plan and make decisions for themselves. We encourage your child's development and stimulate their creativity, in a structured environment, through purposeful play and activities inspired by the children's interests and passions.
Our Pedagogy is based on a belief that effective learning stems from trusting relationships, nurturing self - worth and self- belief. We strive to enable children to become active learners, to be resilient and acquire positive dispositions to become self - resilient and independent.

Remember the thrill of making mud pies? Building dens in the woods or digging for worms? That childhood book that stays with you now or friendships that teach you how to be yourself? Well, here at Little Star we know the importance of these life long memories and skills, so provide children with those everlasting memories that become the building blocks with which to learn and develop.
Well, weren't we blessed with the good weather on Saturday? As they say: the sun shines on the righteous! And what a wonderful way to spend the end of this year: all together. It seemed like the perfect marker of us coming out of a year of lock downs/ isolations (which I am very aware is still upon us, and prevented some attending this weekend).
They say children laugh 300 times a day whereas adults less than 20. Well, here at Little Star Nursery we aim to re dress that balance as staff laugh and learn alongside the children. All of our staff at both settings are highly qualified, experienced and passionate about working with children.

I was really nervous about my son starting nursery but he runs through the door in the mornings, I think he actually enjoys it more than being home (which part of me is slightly miffed about). All the staff are so friendly and caring. I am amazed how much his speech has progressed in such a short time. They have such a variety of activities, be it out and about exploring on walks or messy play. I love the "artwork" he comes home with (sometimes on paper, sometimes on his t-shirt)
We are so grateful for all the support, care and effort Little Stars go to everyday and will definitely be sending
