Review from Sophie S (Mother of Child) published on 12 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We absolutely love Kindred nursery, as does my son. He is so excited when we drop him off in the morning. He's developed such a strong bond with his key worker(s) and it puts my mind at ease to see him so happy to see them every morning. We receive so many photos and videos of him doing lots of fun and messy play. We couldn't be happier with the care they give our boy. We will definitely be sending our next child here.

Review from Melis E (Mother of Child) published on 9 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Like every parent, we were anxious when our child started nursery at 17 months old in October 2025. The first few weeks are always difficult, but the experience and support of the staff during this transition made us feel very reassured and happy.
Our child is now 24 months old, and there have been times when, upon entering the nursery, she even forgets to look back and wave goodbye to us - which is the biggest sign that she feels happy, safe, and comfortable there.
Another great advantage is how attentive the key workers are. If a child needs extra support in certain areas, the staff gently encourage their development without putting them under pressure, which we really appreciate.
The daily updates and pictures shared through the app are also great. Of course, I sometimes wish they could share photos and videos more frequently, but at the same time, I understand that this would create extra pressure for the staff.

I would like to thank the whole team again for their care and support!

Reply from Niki McCormick, Marketing Admin at Kindred Hanwell Nursery and Pre-school

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review.

We completely understand how anxious those first weeks of nursery can feel, especially when your child is so young, so it's really reassuring to hear that the team were able to support both you and your daughter through that transition....

Review from K H (Mother of Child) published on 9 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Just like any mother would be, I was very nervous before sending my son here but the staff have been great in taking care of him and in reassuring us he is doing okay. My son used to cry a lot at the beginning and didn't like nursery at all but the staff have made him feel at ease with all the activities and toys provided. He is now happy at nursery and enjoys his time there. We have noticed an increase in his development as well since he started nursery as he has learnt to clap, say bye and has become more active as well. The nursery serves fresh food cooked on site and as a result, my son is experiencing new and healthy foods daily. Regular updates are provided on the nursery app such as meals, milk, nappies, nap etc. and you can also message the staff who are extremely responsive.
My only point for improvement is if the nursery shared more photos on the app throughout the day of what the babies have been upto for parents.

Review from Mat E (Father of Child) published on 9 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Since our daughter joined the nursery at the end of February, we've been pleasantly surprised by how caring, careful and developmental the nursery is.
Our daughter took a little while to settle in but then started to look genuinely happy to be handed over to the wonderful staff over at Kindred. We would like to name Athisha as being that wonderful staff member. As her key person, our daughter has clearly grown very fond and trusting of her.
The app is excellent in providing Mum and Dad with all the important updates we'd need.
The only point of constructive feedback I would give is that the fees are truly expensive. Whilst we are eligible for the 30 hours funded learning, going beyond three full days more than doubles our costs. This is not fair for those parents who are trying to provide for their family, yet simultaneously need to ensure their child is looked after.

Otherwise, we thank you, Kindred!

Review from Shengbo W (Father of Child) published on 8 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our child joined Kindred Nursery Hanwell when he was just 6 months old, and overall, we've had a very positive experience. The transition was easy for him, I think that's because the baby room team were incredibly patient and supportive. Over time, he's developed strong bonds with his key worker and now happily goes in, which has been a huge relief for us.

What really stands out is how well the staff get to know each child, even in a larger setting. They're always approachable and take the time to listen, which made us feel supported. The daily updates and observations are thoughtful and detailed, and it's clear they genuinely care about each child's development and well-being.

The environment feels safe, nurturing and well-organised, and we've seen a real boost in our child's confidence and independence. We would definitely recommend Kindred Hanwell to other parents.

Review from K S (Mother of Child) published on 22 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our 15-month-old started at Kindred Nursery Hanwell in October 2025, and we've had such a positive experience. He began quite upset, but with the patience and care of the baby room team he has built lovely attachments with his key worker and staff. He now goes in smiling, plays independently and has grown so much in confidence.

The staff and management are all friendly, caring and supportive, which really reassured us as nervous parents. The daily updates are great, and it's clear they truly care about each child's routine and development. They've even introduced activities based on what he enjoys at home to help him feel more settled.

We're so happy with the nurturing, safe and familiar environment they've created for him. Highly recommend Kindred Hanwell.

Our son started at kindred in September, at 16 months, and we have had a fantastic experience. He bonded quickly with his key carer and has settled in better than we could have hoped. All staff are caring and attentive, we enjoy the daily updates and the development we see in our son since starting has been very pleasing. He clearly loves attending Kindred and we couldn't have hoped for a better start to his time here.

All three of my children have been at Kindred starting in 2020 and my youngest is still there now. All of my children have absolutely loved both the nursery setting and the staff at Kindred. They have been happy to go in and always have a smile on their face when we pick them up! The staff have always been lovely with both us and the children. They have also been great at making us feel reassured that the children are happy and doing well. It has been lovely to see each child thrive while at Kindred and we are so grateful we found and chose Kindred!! Thank you to all of the staff!

Review from G C (Mother of Child) published on 19 May 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We've had a really positive experience at Kindred Hanwell. The managers and team are approachable and always available, which creates a great sense of trust. Even in a large setting, they know our child well, which is very reassuring.

Transitions between rooms are handled smoothly, with good communication and flexibility. We felt listened to and supported during a time when our child was going through other transitions.

The one and two-year observation by the key person were beautifully written and showed how well they know and care for our child.

One area for improvement would be the settling-in process- while I understand that many children adapt quickly, our experience was different, and I would have appreciated the opportunity to be more involved during that phase -perhaps with a more flexible approach to support children who need a little extra time.

Overall, we're really happy and confident our child is in great hands and we would suggest Kindred Hanwell nursery to any parent

Overall Experience
We have loved watching our baby thrive at Kindred under the care and provision of the staff. There is no doubt that the staff know our child well and do all they can do to encourage her to develop her personality.
Our baby has been attending the nursery since she was 7.5 months old. The staff always greet her with a smile on their face and it is evident that she is very comfortable with them. The staff takes the time to feedback on our baby's day, always keeping us well-informed and working with us to introduce new routines.
For working parents, the hours are very supportive of work commitments, opening early and closing later than other nurseries in the area.

We would definitely recommend Kindred and we are very happy that we chose to send our baby here.

We really appreciate the regular updates on her progress. The staff are friendly and caring, always making sure she's safe and happy.

Review from Laura P (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has attended Kindred Hanwell Nursery and Pre-school since she was just over 13 months old. It was extremely nerve-wracking having to put my little baby into a stranger's arms. However, after the first week, she was so happy to go in. Smiling and reaching out to staff. She is now 1 year 8 months and is such a confident and capable young girl who talks to me all the time about what she has been up to at nursery, her friends and most importantly the staff. Staff have provided me with lots of reassurance, updates, photos videos as well as feedback at pick-up time which helps me have a good understanding of how she is spending her time there.

I really feel the staff are what makes this nursery and my daughter's current key worker takes great care of my daughter and observes her closely to see her interests and try to nurture them. If I have ever had a concern or issue, management has always been able to available to speak with me and help resolve the issue.

We absolutely love having our daughter here. It's very clear that they care about each child and their individuality, making sure they move at each child's pace. They clearly encourage (but don't push) growth within the nursery as well as at home. Our daughter adores the staff (as do we) and really enjoys our quick debriefing about her day at pick-up (currently she goes only two mornings a week). We've noticed the influence Kindred has had and are extremely pleased to have her here.
We love the cook too! While my daughter is picky, the staff here has asked (on pasta days) the cook to leave some plain for her which she has finally started eating.. baby steps, right?

On another note, the upper management has great communication and has been helpful at every turn.

We have two children attending Kindred Hanwell. Our eldest started at two years old when we moved to the area, having joined from another Kindred nursery and our youngest recently joined at one. It's tough to make a decision about which nursery is best for your child but when we viewed Kindred Hanwell we instantly knew it was the right fit for our family. First and foremost, the excellent team of staff is what makes the nursery so special. Each and every staff member is so caring, friendly, knowledgeable, and just brilliant with the children. Our new three-year-old races into the nursery every day and loves her time there, and our baby is settling in well, being so well cared for by her fantastic key person. Our eldest's speech and language have come on leaps and bounds since starting too. The facilities, outside space, and menu are also excellent. The children really are given the space, support, and tools they need to learn, play, and develop. We highly recommend Kindred Hanwell.
