Day Nurseries Owned by Kindred Nurseries in Cambridgeshire

Thank you to all of you.

Stephen and Shelley are superstars and I would 100% recommend this nursery!

Kindred St Ives has been amazing for my little boy. He has come out of his shell and now is happy to try absolutely anything and interact with anyone. He has made a little group of friends who he's always excited to see, and becomes very animated when he comes into his room. All of the staff who care for him are helpful, compassionate, and always working with me to do what's best for him. Before nursery, he struggled with his eating solid foods, and since coming into the baby room, his willingness to eat solid food and his ability to use cutlery is night and day. I am so happy with how happy he is to be there everyday!

For a short period of time we noticed our little one had poo in his nappy just as we were putting him in the car (and didn't feel right about bringing him back in for nappy changing), but that stopped being a problem recently and may be nothing to do with the staff, just coincidental.

I can't recommend this nursery highly enough. It's a wonderful, nurturing environment, and we're excited to watch our son continue to grow, learn, and flourish as he moves through the rooms and on to preschool. Thank you to the whole team for everything you do!

The nursery is a happy, safe and nurturing place for our children. The staff give such care and attention to every child and help our children develop key skills and flourish in confidence. The staff provide excellent communication to us as parents about our childs progress and development. We are very thankful for the staff and their devotion to such an important job.

I think the manager Sheila and Paula in the office are both fantastic and have a great presence too.

My twins absolutely love attending this nursery and have built fantastic relationships with the staff. The team is caring, friendly, and always makes the children feel safe and happy. It's clear that they enjoy a wide range of engaging activities and learning opportunities every day. In fact, they often don't want to leave when we arrive for pick-up, which says everything about how much they enjoy being there. We're very grateful for the support, care, and dedication shown by all the staff.

The caregivers are very attentive to the children and knowledgeable on helping guide the children. They are so helpful in helping the children navigate things as they learn and grow. They include lots of fun learning activities to encourage milestones as well.

My daughter has been coming here since she was 6-months old and has always been very happy. She's been with excellent staff and key people throughout her time here, so we're always reassured that she's well looked after. The setting itself is fantastic, with plenty of indoor and outdoor space.

Fantastic nursery which has made our little one feel incredibly welcome. It's an incredibly nervous time for any parent but Kindred have done everything they possibly could to help support us. Couldn't recommend enough.

Caring and proactive team, makes our daughter feel excited to be there and she learns so much from playing with the staff and other children, and misses her friends on the evenings / weekends! They have a separate space for the youngest children, and the mid/oldest are partly divided, but they also make a great community and progression by letting some mixing between stages. We are glad we made the right choice in picking Kindred!

My child goes in happily every morning, which gives me real peace of mind that she's well cared for. She enjoys the meals, and it's great to see such a healthy and delicious selection of food by the chef. The staff are super friendly, and we couldn't be happier with the level of care they provide.

She loves the outdoor space, has made wonderful friends, and always comes home happy. The app updates are a big help too, I really appreciate the detailed information on her day.

It would be great to see things like day trips, quarterly parents' evenings, and a larger indoor space for the 2+ group, but I understand improvements are already planned. Overall, a fantastic nursery and highly recommend!

My son started at hauxston nursery and he absolutely loves it. All the nursery workers are lovely and made him feel part of the family. They engage in so many activities and come home with lovely pictures too. He's settled in so well and really enjoys going

St Neots Kindred is just absolutely lovely. It has helped my daughter grow and blossom. From somebody who never left her mums side, to someone who shows an abundance of independence and self-resilience. Nothing is too much to ask of for the staff and they have put so much in place to support my little one. All staff know the children on a personal level and remember small details about them. It's a true home from home.

We're really pleased we picked this nursery, it was the standout option of the handful we viewed and we're so pleased with our experience so far. My daughter has settled in well, and we've felt supported as parents during that time. I particularly appreciate the regular photos and updates about what activities my little one does while at nursery, and her progress has been well communicated to us both verbally and via the app in reports. We've noticed her development has come on leaps and bounds, as well as her confidence. The staff are all so lovely and care so much for the children, during visits to the nursery it feels like a very welcoming, happy and positive environment. The food served is varied and nutritious, and it's nice to know she's eating well and in a lovely caring setting when at nursery.

I've had children in Kindred St Neots since November 2022, before it was taken over by Kindred. I was very relieved that none of the staff changed because that really is what makes this nursery what it is. The staff are so caring and patient. I can confidently leave my child(ren) in their care knowing they are safe, will have fun and be comforted when they are sad or hurt - the staff excel at this. Not only that but they provide a supportive environment best suited for learning and exploring. They hold regular outside visitors to engage the children and entertain them. They spend a lot of time in the garden, getting plenty of vitamin D and learning the joy of just running around with friends outside, which is so important in this age of increasing technology. Their care of children with allergies is equally brilliant and their menus are nutritious and varied. I can't recommend this nursery enough - my children have flourished under their excellent care. Thank you!

Thank you to the team for taking such good care of the children.

Our daughter runs happily into nursery each morning. As working parents this gives us such peace of mind that she is happy there. The staff are warm and friendly, it is clear they know our child well. Staff plan great activities for the children and we feel our child is being well developed here. We are going to send our second child here too because we are pleased with the care. It offers Term Time only. The downside is the lack of space for preschoolers inside but this is compensated by the huge outdoor meadow in the summer time. Management are very responsive to queries. Would recommend if local.

We had a tough experience with a previous nursery as my son has ASD, but Girton have given me hope that my son may be able to manage at primary school. The staff have shown they are as excited as I am when he manages to have playful interactions with his friends, and that has been wonderful to see. It feels like they really care for him and his development and want to see him thrive.
