Review of
Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Whiteley
from Kirsten W (Mother of Child) published on 9 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Both of my children have attended Kiddi Caru since they were six months old and I have always felt very happy leaving them there. My son is now at school and loved his time at nursery - which I think stood him in good stead for his first year in Reception. My daughter has now spent a year there and

walks in without turning back! All of the staff members are lovely and the menu is so varied. The facilities always seem clean and modern, and the place is always decorated brilliantly. There is always a new celebration going on and something different for the kids to engage in.

Reply from Charlie G, Nursery Support Team at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery WhiteleyThank you for your review of Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool in Whiteley. We're so pleased to hear that both of your children have had such a positive early years experience with us! Ensuring children feel confident, happy and are equipped with the positive life skills they need to succeed at school is an important focus for our older children. Providing healthy, nutritious and varied meals is so important to help introduce children to a wide variety of delicious flavours. Our dedicated team provide a great variety of engaging activities for the children to enjoy and celebrate a wide range of cultural days and occasions to help broaden children's knowledge and learning.

Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Whiteley
from O S (Mother of Child) published on 8 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Didn't settle. Would scream going in, be sobbing before I've picked him up, hysterical when he saw me. Always hungry after nursery. Would scream if he knew he was going to nursery. Was mute at nursery. Been at his new nursery has never once cried going in. Is chatty, has friends, so much confidence.

A completely different child as to what he was at Kiddi caru. Google reviews won't accept my review. Likely other parents have seen the light and complained. I feel guilty that I left him at that place. Taking him out was the best thing I've ever done.

Reply from Charlie G, Nursery Support Team at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery WhiteleyThank you for taking the time to share your experience at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool in Whiteley. We are genuinely sorry to hear how difficult the settling-in period felt for both you and your child. Throughout his time with us, our team worked closely with you both to support him in his transition to nursery. While he did take longer to settle, we were pleased to see some positive moments where he began to engage in play and interact with the environment. We observed that he consistently ate well with us and enjoyed many of his meals. However, we do appreciate that our High Tea is served at 3.30pm, which is why we suggest our families continue to offer dinner at home afterwards. If you would like to discuss anything further, please don't hesitate to contact us on 01489 57194.

I have always had a great experience with Kiddi Caru Park Gate. All the staff are super caring, attentive and nurturing. They have helped ensure my daughter has the best care by keeping on top of her allergy plan etc. The amount of time and energy they give 100% every day shows true compassion and commitment

in what they do.

Overall Experience

Everyone at Kiddi Caru has been excellent with both my children. They really get to know them well and what they do and don't like. They all understand that bringing a little one to nursery can be an emotional time for parents and really ease the nerves with lots of photos and stories at handover. I

would recommend Kiddi Caru to anyone. We have been so happy here. Everyone in Starfish is just wonderful!!

My son is in crab room for one day a week only, despite feeling nervous about him starting nursery, he settled really quickly and is flourishing. I am impressed at the staff's ability to get to know him in such a short time. I am hugely grateful and impressed by the vegan options provided for his meals.

I thank the whole team for their efforts in giving their best possible care to my son thus far.

Overall Experience

We have always been happy with the service, quality of people and facilities here. Its a really nice place for our daughter to come and she enjoys it which is the most important thing.

She is happy to go to nursery and seems to have a good bond with all of the workers and always has a smile on her

face when we pick her up.
The feedback is good and updates are constant which is nice to see and read.

Her confidence has grown and is developing week by week, she is always eating really good meals and there is always a good variety of activities for her to join in with.

I would 100% recommend here
