I have two children at Kindred Hainault and I can’t say enough positive things about it. The staff are really creative with the activities they set up for the children. They’re also really caring and friendly, they’re happy to take time to give feedback on your child’s day and they regularly update
their progress and development on the app. The app is also brilliant for letting you know what your child has eaten and at what time, how many times their nappy has been changed etc. Overall a lovely place to send your children, highly recommend Kindred!

My daughter has been attending Kindred Hainault for over a year now and loves her days there. As a mother, I've felt really comfortable with the staff they have. They are attentive, informative and really form a bond with the children they are taking care of, understanding each and their individual
personalities. The nursery provides a variety of healthy meals which my daughter loves and targets activities that cater to learning and play both in and outdoors. Overall really happy with the nursery.

My daughter has attended Kindred Hainault for about a year and a half now and I cannot fault it. Everyone’s extremely accommodating, helpful and nothing is ever too much. I struggle to get my daughter to actually leave nursery now because she loves it so much. The staff in all rooms she has been in
have always been amazing and have helped her development a lot, she is extremely fond of the catering staff and the management team are very efficient and organised. I would recommend this nursery to everyone.

I started using this nursery when my first child was nine months old. He had a fantastic time here and left when he was three. I had another child in 2021 and after viewing some nurseries in my local area and not being totally impressed I decided to bring him back to Kindred Hainault. Safe to say I
still am as impressed as what I was all those years ago when my first child went here. It is always such a warm friendly environment all the time. My youngest son is always so happy to go to nursery and when he is there he always has the best time and is completely worn out by the time he comes home.
They have a garden area in each of the nursery rooms which is a lovely little addition as well as having a cook on site so the children get freshly cooked meals everyday. The team and management are always incredibly friendly and helpful and always keep you thoroughly up to date with what my child has got up to that day.
Can't thank you all enough for the absolute consistency throughout.

My child has been attending this nursery since last year. The staff have been amazing and supportive since he transitioned from his old nursery. They have made my little one feel welcome and he is visibly so much happier at this nursery, often making comments of how much fun he has had. The staff give
regular updates on progress and encourage all different activities including numeracy. They also cater to my son’s allergy requirements and have a nutritious food menu for the kids. All management and staff are extremely professional and always make time to put my mind at ease and answer any questions I have had.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Coming from a previous nursery, my daughter was not getting the professional, trained staff to learn and respond to her needs. She was finding it difficult to settle in as she’s an independent child at home. I changed my daughter to Kindred Hainault after reading about the wonderful things they offer
as a nursery.
My daughter has been going to Kindred Hainault since June 2021, and she has flourished so much and is so excited to go to nursery every day and excited to show off everyone and everything in her nusery to me. The staff are so caring, passionate teachers and professionals. Staff nurture every child and build each child to be independent. The attention to detail and parent and staff relationship is the best. The staff are so helpful with everything you ask, and they keep you updated with everything your child’s doing on the app from what they eat to any news and updates, and you can message the staff on the app. The nursery provides a high safety standard and a clean environment.

My daughter loves coming to nursery she always comes out happy and sometimes never wants to leave, we get regular daily updates of what she's been doing in the day. The only negative is that since changing from Dizzy Ducks to Kindred it has become more money orientated. For my family we needed to drop
my daughter off 20 minutes early yet the nursery want to charge me a full hour, I did suggest that I'd pick her up 20 minutes early so it's not any extra time but management said that's not possible.

My son has been attending Kindred for the last few years, after switching from another nursery. Staff are attentive and enthusiastic, and the communication is fantastic. We love the app used to communicate updates and chat with staff when needed. My son always comes home happy and we have noticed advances
in his development from his time spent at nursery. Would really recommend, and we are so happy we chose Kindred.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. They are willing to share what my son has done throughout the day and answer any questions we have.
My son loves attending and he can't wait to jump out of the car every
morning to see his friends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attends this nursery who is two years old.
She started in the baby room where the staff were very keen to know how best to settle her and introduce her to the routine. When picking up my child she was always happy and clean.
She has now moved into the tot's room, has settled in really
well and is gaining a lot of confidence. She has learnt so much being at the nursery such as how to feed herself, socialising with other kids and singing lots of songs which we sing together.
I’m informed and updated with her day and all other nursery information via an app. The app really helps to stay connected to your child.
In the morning when I drop my daughter off the staff are always welcoming and polite.
I’m really just enjoying seeing my little girl grow at Kindred Hainault have played a big part in that.

My daughter has been attending baby room for over a year and absolutely loves it. She looks forward to coming into nursery and has built great relationships with the staff members and children in the room and we know that she is being well looked after. She is learning new stuff everyday and are very
happy with her progress. Thank you to all the staff members at Kindred Hainault.

I am so pleased with this nursery, my daughter has settled in very well, she absolutely loves attending nursery. She simply runs off in the morning forgetting all about me, lol. She’s very happy here, all the staff are very attentive and have the children’s best needs in mind always. There is a range
of various activities for children to do daily and my little one always enjoys her day. My daughter has learned so much while being at Kindred and that’s all down to the hard work of the staff. I’m particularly proud of the management during these testing Covid times, keep up the hard work Kindred, you're just fabulous.

It’s a joy to watch my son run into nursery smiling and to be greeted warmly by the staff. I have found the team at Kindred Hainault to be professional and friendly with the child's wellbeing at the centre of everything they do. His speech has improved greatly and he is thriving under their care. He
loves spending time outside and the outside learning facilities at Kindred Hainault are fantastic.

Our son has been attending Kindred for two days a week since he was 10 months, he is now two and a half. He has a lovely time when he is there, lots of fun with his friends and the adults and is fed extremely well!
He runs in every day, happy to see who is going to collect him and start his fun day!
All the ladies who work with him are professional friendly and caring. The nursery has been very accommodating to our needs and we would definitely recommend it to others.

My daughter started in April. I was sceptical about sending her to nursery as she has Downs Syndrome but the staff are so nice and reassuring, I honestly feel at ease as I know she is in good hands. And even though it’s been a month I have noticed a change in my daughter. She is trying to talk more
which makes me so happy. I am terrible with names but all the staff in the baby room are amazing and thank you to the senior nursery manager who answered all my questions. Thank you for doing such a great job

My son has been attending Kindred Hainault for two years now, for three days a week and he always has a great time. He's made some really good friendships there and it's been invaluable during Covid-19. They've also be very careful with their Covid-19 measures and there have been very few issues. They've
definitely put him on the right track for reception.

I have had all three of my children attend this nursery, my first one started in 2016 and I am currently still using their services, throughout this time I have always experienced positive outcomes in my children’s development. The staff have always been friendly, helpful and any small problem that
might of occurred has been dealt with efficiently. The nursery itself always seems clean and has lots of outdoor space. Most importantly my children always want to go, they love being there and have plenty to tell me about all the things they have done.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.787)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.787) out of 10 for Kindred Hainault Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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 4.974 for Kindred Hainault Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.974
  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 4.813 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kindred Hainault Nursery & Pre-school is based on 13 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. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.813
  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.
