My son has attended Kendor Day Nursery for the past three months, and I truly couldn't ask for a better place for him to learn and grow. From the very beginning, the staff have been incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, which made the transition so much easier for both of us. It's clear
that they take the time to get to know each child individually, understanding their needs, personalities, and interests.
The environment is always welcoming, clean, and well-organised, with a great variety of engaging activities that support both learning and play. I've noticed such a positive change in my son's confidence, social skills, and development since he started. He comes home happy, and excited to go back the next day, which says everything.
Communication with parents is excellent. I'm always kept informed about his day, his progress, and any important updates.
Highly recommend!

Moving both of my children from a large chain nursery was genuinely the best decision I've ever made for them. While I was generally happy before, the move has shown me what a massive difference the right environment makes. Since switching, my kids are so much happier; they are truly thriving and reaching
developmental milestones at a much faster pace.
They have been at this nursery since day one, and it has truly become a home away from home for our family. My children have formed incredible bonds with the staff, and it's a wonderful feeling to drop them off knowing they are with people who genuinely care about their well-being and happiness. They are so well looked after and well-fed throughout the day, which gives me such peace of mind. They absolutely love being there, and seeing them walk in with such big smiles says it all. I'm incredibly grateful for the personal, nurturing touch they receive every single day. I couldn't recommend them more highly!

What can I say? If there were more stars to give, I would!
It is always a anxious time leaving your children when you have to return back to work, but after my first meeting with the team at Kendor all these anxiety feelings vanished. They are super friendly, clearly know there stuff. The most important
thing for me was safety and flexibility and without doubt the team accommodate your every needs.
From the first day, my child felt at ease and has built great relationships with the team here and also made new friends. You're always updated with how your child is getting on and can always speak to a member of the team.
Can't recommend this nursery enough!
Kendor, thank you for enriching my child's life!

Choosing Kendor is one of the best decisions made in my parenting journey. Kendor never fails to go above and beyond for the children and families, they truly care about each child and cater to their needs. I don't know how I will ever thank the staff for everything, the support and guidance from them
has been out of this world! My son has been attending since 1 year and now that he is off to school in September, I don't know how we will survive without them. I truly don't think anyone can care for my son the way they have, nor do I trust them to. Each staff member is a superstar - what a great team! I would like to give a shout-out especially to the manager and three other staff members - we love you!

I had an amazing experience with Kendor Day Nursery. Both my children attended and were very happy. The staff and the manager are very nice and the support is outstanding. The rooms and outdoor area are lovely, lots of opportunities for the children to do. I would really recommend the nursery to any
family as they are caring and very supportive and find it accessible to all families.

Kendor is a lovely nursery!
Both of my children attended Kendor and both children’s needs were always met. When we had hard times, the staff went above and beyond to provide support.
The staff are very personable, and they provide a fun, and nurturing environment for the children. Settings were
updated regularly, keeping the environment interesting and engaging. We all made such great memories through Kendor and have made long-lasting connections. I have and will continue to recommend this nursery.

I cannot recommend Kendor Day Nursery highly enough! From the moment we met, all staff have been warm, welcoming and nurturing towards our daughter. We've been so impressed by the quality of care and attention to detail that they provide. Our daughter absolutely loves going to Kendor Day Nursery -
they always have a big smile on their face, and it's clear that they've had a fantastic time. We really appreciate the effort that staff at Kendor Day Nursery puts into creating a safe and engaging environment for the children in their care. We always feel well-informed about what our daughter has been doing, how she's been feeling and what she's been learning. We feel confident that our daughter is in good hands and we're so grateful for the amazing care that they provide. Thank you!

My twin daughters started fulltime here when they were only 6 months, which was really daunting initially as they were so young, but I needed to return back to work.
From the moment I visited I knew Kendor would be the right place for my daughters as it was literally home from home. The warmth I received
from the staff was outstanding and the girls settled in straight away. The hardest thing for me was leaving my daughters to return to work, and if it wasn't for Kendor, I'm not sure how I would have dealt with this process.
I cannot commend this nursery enough!

Kendor is a brilliant nursery with great facilities and staff. Both of my children currently attend the nursery and my little one in preschool loves it. There are activities always planned to keep them both entertained and the nursery has done a great job nurturing and supporting their development and
growth. I have recommended the nursery and would continue to.

My children have been attending Kendor since 2018, and it’s been fantastic.
We have never once felt uncomfortable leaving our children there and neither has the kids, they absolutely love it.
The staff are so warm, welcoming and friendly which is so comforting.
The nursery is always clean.
There
is plenty of space indoors and out which was a big thing for us when looking around at nurseries.
The children go in happy and come out happy, we couldn’t recommend Kendor Day Nursery highly enough. 10/10 from us.

My son has been attending Kendor for 18 months now and he loves it!
He has Downs Syndrome and so had delays with walking, self-feeding and other fine motor skills. Naturally, I was worried about leaving him and worried that he wouldn’t be able to join in with the same activities as his peers, but
the team at Kendor have made sure that he is involved in all indoor and outdoor activities and he is thriving and grown in confidence.
My son’s hearing teacher, portage worker and occupational therapist all visit him onsite and the Kendor team are passionate about helping him to achieve the learning targets they set for him. The staff are fantastic, I am kept regularly updated and they show great passion and enthusiasm in everything they do. I couldn’t ask for a better team to help with my son's development.

Cannot recommend this nursery enough. My daughter has attended full time since 9 months old. She is now in her last two terms of Kendor and starting school in September. My daughter loves going to nursery and talks about the staff and activities nonstop at home. The staff are so friendly and happy to
help with any questions and go above and beyond to help. The staff work extremely hard to provide a stimulating, safe and engaging environment where the children thrive. I love the different activities they do throughout the year to recognise all celebrations. They communicate well with parents and throughout the whole pandemic they remained open for those of us that needed to work and kept the children safe. The price is very reasonable compare to others in the area and the management team are amazing. The staff worked and supported me through things like potty training and supported me with things my daughter found difficult.

Couldn’t ask for a more wonderful, caring and supportive nursery. Both my children have/are attending Kendor and I rate them highly. They are friendly, professional and create a safe space for all. The nursery is clean, organised and well resourced with inside and out activities for all ages within
the setting. They communicate with parents daily, collaborating to support all stages of the child’s development. It really is the perfect home, away from home.

My child has been at Kendor for nearly two years now, I can honestly say that I could not have hoped for a more wonderful nurturing environment for him away from home! Space and activities are planned brilliantly with lots and lots of varied opportunities. Staff are excellent! They know the children
very well and this shows in the developments and achievements of my child! Staff are caring, understanding, extremely knowledgeable and always available to help, listen to any concerns etc. They are also great fun! Kendor has fabulous, well thought out resources which are used to optimum effect and both the indoor and outdoor spaces are designed with the children fully in mind. I cannot recommend this nursery enough if you want the best start for your child!

My son has been attending Kendor since October 2017
He has never felt uncomfortable or upset when I drop him and leave. The staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming.
The nursery provides a safe and fun environment for children and I have recommended it to friends with young children, who also
now attend.
The nursery has structure day to day for the children which I believe is important. They also have effective policies that they fully adhere to.
My son has made lots of friends with other children at Kendor, as well as being close to all of the staff.
There are untold amounts of various activities and toys to get involved with and a very well equipped garden area complete with a small climbing frame for the older kids, ride in cars, balls, rackets, outdoor mud kitchen, play construction area and lots more!
Highly highly recommend if you’re looking for somewhere exceptional at caring for your child.
