I really appreciate the work Marha has done with the nursery. Everything feels much more organised, and it's great to be able to give feedback and feel heard, acknowledged, and see actions taken. I'm especially pleased with the positive changes around the buggy shed issues, and it's exciting to know
that preschool are now gearing up for outings soon. Thank you to Marha and all the wonderful staff for your hard work and dedication!

Kido nursery has exceeded my expectations and I think I am tough to be satisfied with childcare. The teachers miraculously always were on top of things, very observing, even knowing my child better than me. This nursery earns their outstanding estimate in every sense.
My son was full time in Kido St

Kido Nursery staff are very welcoming and polite. I wanted my son to attend Kido, and now that he's finally there, I absolutely love it. The staff are wonderful-always approachable, friendly, and easy to communicate with. They engage well with parents and children, and everything is kept clean and tidy.
From
my previous nursery experiences, I can confidently say that Kido stands out as an excellent nursery. The staff are amazing, supportive, and dedicated. I'm very happy with the care my son receives, and I would recommend Kido to anyone looking for a nurturing environment. I'm even considering having my son continue on to preschool here because of how positive our experience has been, so far its good. Thank you to the kido's team at Waterloo.

It's spectacular. I love that she learns new things and shares them with other babies. They're excellent in terms of safety, learning, and reliability; the cleanliness is excellent, the garden is a very safe and pleasant space for them to play, and the staff is very friendly. I feel very comfortable
leaving the baby at the nursery. Overall, everything is great; they work wonderfully. It's a great team.

I have been a parent at St Patrick's for over 6 years. My eldest is now at school and currently, my 2 daughters aged 4 years and 21 months attend 4 and 3 days respectively.


All 3 started around 5 months old, and from day 1, their every need and more has been met. The teachers go above and beyond

to make the children in their care feel safe and secure, whilst also providing exciting, creative and educational activities. They learn about the world around them, ranging from the environment and how they can help by recycling, through to exploring different scents and smells, making their own tea, learning about lots of cultural holidays and significant religious events such as Ramadan, and everything in between!


No 2 days are the same, with regular music sessions in Spanish, yoga classes and football to name but a few! In the outside area, the children can have fun on the slide and explore nature. Meals are home cooked by the wonderful chef!
I highly recommend this wonderful nursery!

We've had a wonderful experience with Kido St. Patrick's since our child started in the baby room in January. The staff are incredibly caring, attentive, and nurturing, which has made the transition smooth and reassuring. There's a fantastic variety of activities that keep the children engaged and help
them develop new skills. We've been really impressed with the warm and welcoming environment - it's clear the team genuinely cares about the children's well-being and happiness. Highly recommend!

Honestly, we couldn't be happier with Kiddo! It's not just a nursery, it's like a little family. The way they care for the babies is just so lovely, you can tell they genuinely adore them. Our little one is always beaming when we do a drop off.


What really sets Kiddo apart is all the amazing stuff

they do - way more than other places we looked at. For example, early language exposure is a brilliant addition, sparking curiosity. We've seen our child thrive socially and intellectually.


Kiddo's commitment to each child's well-being is evident, making it a standout choice. Highly recommend for a holistic and enriching start!

Good -
Really happy with the staff and engaging activities for the kids - my child loves going in and on some days, doesn't want to leave at the end of the day. There is a community feeling with the staff being super friendly and many parents knowing other kids.


What could be better -
- weekly

reports don't always have pictures of my child.
Storage space for keeping strollers is tiny and not well organized. At the end of the day, many strollers are lying on top of each other making it time consuming and also damages the strollers

We started my daughter at Kido when she was 9 months old, so that I could start my master's degree. My anxieties were quickly quelled by how well she settled in and was embraced by the staff. Now, she can hardly wait to get out the door in the morning, and she is visibly excited every day when I drop
her off. Developmentally, she has thrived through the incredible variety of activities, interaction with other children, and loving support from her teachers. We love Kido so much, and we are so grateful for my daughter's time there.

Leaving your child in someone else's care is difficult so seeing him excited to be dropped off every morning is a testament to the genuine care the staff here give. They have many initiatives to promote each child's culture and have staff that encourage our bilingual son's language development. There
are always fun relevant activities planned as part of the curriculum and everything is well communicated to parents ahead of time including updates as to meals, naps and regular photos.

Kido St Patrick's provided incredible care and unmatched education to my son. The staff's dedication played a crucial role in his development.
From teaching essential skills to nurturing an interest in 3 languages to fostering compassion, his horizons were surely broadened at nursery.
The app is amazing,

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.831)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.831) out of 10 for Kido St Patrick's is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.831 for Kido St Patrick's is calculated as follows: ( (199 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 237 Ratings = 4.831
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kido St Patrick's is based on 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
