Some children are shy and others are outgoing, some are active, while others are calm, some may be fretful, while others are easy-going. In our nurturing environment, it's our job to encourage them to embrace their uniqueness and celebrate their individual qualities.

My daughter started at Bright Star 6 months ago. I am so happy we chose to send her there. Imogen adores the staff and she feels happy and at ease when I drop her off with her key worker(s). The staff have been kind and considerate towards us as parents and understand that it can be hard leaving your child with them for long periods of time.
They always take the time to tell us about how our daughter's day has been. We appreciate their honesty, even if she has had a bad day. I have complete trust in the staff at Bright Star and know that Imogen gets the best care possible. I have no hesitation

I found bright star Chester-Le-Street terrible. My little boy attended for 3 days for around 18 months up to school age.
The women can’t tell you anything about what they have done all day. The ladies are to busy chatting outside if the weathers fine. You ask what they have eaten. They can’t tell you. I just gave up asking.
I found most of the women unfriendly.
Everything organised for trips etc is usually told to you a couple of days before.
I missed a parents evening at the start due to this so I didn’t find out my little boy had not been talking other than one word (baby talk). They
