Our experience with Starfish Lane 2 has been nothing short of exceptional. Over the past three years, our child has flourished in the care of their dedicated team. From the moment we walked in for our first tour, we felt the warmth and love that permeates every corner of this nursery. The staff at Starfish tarting from Ms. Viviana as manager to each and every teacher and assistant are more than just caregivers; they are true educators and nurturers. They've provided a safe and stimulating environment where our child has not only learned and grown academically but has also developed invaluable social skills and emotional intelligence.

Our son has been with Starfish 2 for two years now. Choosing a nursery for a small child is stressful, and we tried elsewhere before deciding to move to Starfish. It was the best decision we could have made. He has absolutely thrived at Starfish 2, and we would recommend it to everyone without hesitation. Although he attended another nursery with a good reputation for a month, the difference between the two was stark. The staff are incredibly warm, caring, diligent, and simply delightful with the children. The Famly App is superb, keeping us updated with what he's up to during the day, and the staff are very responsive on it. The variety of weekly lessons and the effort put into theme days and weeks by the staff is incredible. It keeps the children stimulated and engaged. We've been incredibly fortunate that our son's class teacher was Ms. Kerry, who has been absolutely brilliant—marvelous, in fact! She has been ably assisted by wonderful support assistants: Ms. Letifa, Ms. Caroline, and, of course, Ms. Freshila. Together, they have guided our little boy and his wonderful classmates to be their best selves. We will be very sad to say goodbye to the team at SF2 at the end of the term as he sets off to "Big School." Thanks to the school readiness programme at Starfish we are very confident he'll do well at School. So, if you're a parent feeling anxious about making the right choice for your child and want an environment where they can grow at their own pace under the care of some simply lovely people, look no further than Starfish Lane 2.

My oldest daughter went to Starfish 2 and she loved every minute there! She still talks about Messy Play Day, Farmers Market and all the Splash Days that were truly amazing. It's a home away from home.
