Day Nurseries Owned by Kindred Nurseries in Essex

Our son loves Kindred, and he loves all the staff. He actually smiles when I hand him over to them! He gets loads of outdoor time, and there are lots of extra events hosted throughout the year. He always all his meals and snacks. They are fab at the communication, they're super organised.

I think the nursery has been a positive experience for my granddaughter. The staff have always been supportive, informative, always very kind. My granddaughter always comes out happy with her day. I am very pleased with her progress at Kindred

Exceptional day nursery with highly trained staff that deliver excellent care and education. The facilities are fantastic and are expanding. Managers are great and administration is efficient. Highly recommend Kindred Day Nursery Rayleigh!

Kids love it, lots of activities and themed learning. Very happy when they come home, talking about what they did and who they played with. They like the food and enjoy sports coaching sessions. Overall we are very happy

I am writing to share our wonderful experience with the nursery preschool. Our daughter joined in January 2026 and left in June 2026. From day one, the team was amazing. They followed all care protocols perfectly, kept everything clean and safe, and were always kind and encouraging.

What touched us most was how they supported her despite the cultural and language differences - everything was new for her. I was truly afraid she would struggle to engage, but the staff helped her so much. They made her feel welcome, included, and confident. Thank you for everything. They are the best team. If I have another child I would admit under their nursery care.

My daughter, 3yrs old, loves coming to nursery. She loves the staff, especially Cat. She absolutely loves the outdoor space. My daughter has quite a few additional needs which the nursery take every care to help her with. The nursery have supported Olivia (and us as parents) amazingly through her journey these last two years.

Having a 22 month old and 4 year old at the nursery they both go in very happy and enjoy their time when there. My daughter gets messages if there is a problem but also reports on their progress. I like that the activities are educational as well as time for play. Having happy children keen to go to their sessions says it all

Kindred Waltham Abbey is lovely. Baby staff when our son started in 2023 had a fantastic team - he was loved very much and cared for with much care.

I believe it's one of the best or only best nursery within Waltham Abbey.

The outside area can be improved to make it more natural and also build overhead shelter to protect children from sun. A lot can be done to the gardens. But inside rooms have been carefully thought of and promote non plastic as much as possible.

They try to expose all children to a range of key learning. I would say that with everything going on to be mindful of inclusion and St. George's day my son came home with the flag and wasn't sure how I felt about that knowing that the flag stands for something that seems to be promoting exclusivity.

But overall I have been happy and comfortable for my son to be apart of the nursery and the centre manager is fab!

Kindred has been a fantastic environment for my son. The staff are friendly, professional, and genuinely take the time to build authentic relationships with the children. What stands out most is how sensible, caring, and grounded the team are in the way they approach both learning and safeguarding.

The nursery is clearly led by a strong and effective leader who communicates well with parents and creates a safe, supportive environment for the children and staff alike. You can see that the culture of the nursery reflects good leadership, consistency, and care.

As a parent, it gives me confidence knowing my son is in an environment where he is known, supported, and genuinely cared for. I would highly recommend the Nursery to other parents.

Kindred Harlow have been amazing with my little one. Helping him grow into the happy funny little boy he is. Even though he's abit behind his peers kindred have done everything they can to get him caught up and he now has!! The staff are just amazing

The staff at the Perry street nursery are fabulous. They are wonderful at drop off and never in a rush to give a good handover. I am glad they ensure that children are continued to be taught manners and team work along with ensuring basic hygiene tasks are carried out properly such as hand-washing effectively before meals etc. The only downside is the space of the premises is very small with limited indoor and outside space. If this was not the case I would certainly be very happy sending my child in for more days.

The ladies looking after my son are fantastic and he has settled so well very happy with the nursery and the staff supporting him in his first time away from home. Updates and photos are given and we're happy!

Kindred westcliff is honestly amazing! All the staff go above and beyond and my son absolutely loves it there! If I could afford it then I would up his hours. My son has had a few medical problems and the staff have been incredibly supportive throughout

My boy started at the beginning of April of this year, the settling in sessions helped him so much and then on his first day he went in with a big smile, since then he's been absolutely loving the nursery and all the staff. They have been so amazing, I can rest assured knowing that my son is very well looked after especially the anxieties after returning to work, this has made it sooo easy, the constant reassurance and communication is just amazing. Just 100/100! :) recommend this nursery to absolutely everyone x

Hugo has been at Kindred in Harlow for around two years, and the difference from his first nursery is amazing. He used to dread going, but now he loves it and constantly talks about his day. Every teacher is "his favourite," especially Annet, which shows how caring the staff are.

The activities are both fun and educational, and he always comes home excited to share what he's done. He's built great friendships, and the food is fantastic, nutritious and varied, and has encouraged him to try things he'd never eat at home.

He also loves the garden, which is perfect for his energy. We even added extra hours not just for convenience, but because it's so beneficial and great value for his development. We couldn't recommend Kindred in Harlow more.

I was so worried about sending my little one to nursery but that all changed on collection day after his first full day. He was laughing and playing in the garden and left happy. He's been happy ever since!

The staff genuinely care and always offer a positive update or story about his day.

He also somehow sleeps better than at home and eats like a King!

My daughter loves going everyday and has so much fun. She is so well looked after by the staff who are super loving and attentive. Wouldn't send my child anywhere else.

The nursery is super clean, food is great and fab range of activities for the child to express themselves in a safe way.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery and the care they provide. Both of our children have attended, and it has been such a positive experience for our family. Our son has now moved on to school, but it says everything about the team that they still make such a fuss of him whenever he visits-it really shows how much they genuinely care.

The level of support and attention given to the children is outstanding. Every member of staff is warm, kind, and incredibly caring, creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can truly thrive. It gives us great peace of mind knowing our child is so well looked after each day.

We are so grateful for everything the nursery has done for our family and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.

My son hasn't been at kindred long but he has thrived since starting. Before starting his speech was only roughly 2-3 words and struggling to make out words he wants to say. Now my little one does not stop talking with new words and sentences coming out of no where! My son is always happy to go and always happy to tell me about what he's been up too and he experiences. The activities and communication is outstanding and I'm always getting lovely feedback about he's day! Thank you Kindred for helping my son grow into the lovely boy he has become!

Great nursery and are very supportive with my child's needs. He struggles with illnesses a lot and Irene and all of the staff have been so understanding. It's a great environment and the children are always busy doing fun things. Also want to say that my sons key worker goes above and beyond for my son as he has difficulties leaving me and his dad, she makes sure he feels safe and has a good time. Thank you to all of the staff and management at Kindred for their unconditional support.
