My son has attended kindred since he was two years old. We are a big fan of the nursery and the staff. I recently attended my first parent's session post covid which was so brilliant to get back inside and see the children playing in the rooms.
Highly recommend, the staff are always so helpful and
lovely. My son practically runs in most days!

My son has attended Little Learners since the age of two, and ever since joining he has thrived. All the staff are kind and caring, in the mornings when I ask him who he’s going to play with today, he tells me he’s excited to see his teachers! They dedicate a huge amount of time and effort into the
development of the children in their care, and it’s very much a learning environment as well as childcare, even at the ripe old age of two I can notice huge improvements in my son's development since he started. We had heard good things about the nursery before sending our son, and it has exceeded all expectations. Thank you for taking such good care of him.

My daughter has been attending this nursery for two months now and she’s so happy there, the nursery is very resourceful, and does a great job keeping the kids busy in a good way. She comes home every day with a story, a new song learnt, a new picture drawn, etc. I would highly recommend it.

My daughter started at Little Learners when she was two, now aged 4, she is in Bluebells. The whole team there are amazing with the children. My daughter is so happy there and that says it all for me. Genuine, enthusiastic and caring you can tell the staff put in a lot of effort, I would definitely
recommend Bluebells to any parents I feel my daughter has thrived in such a positive environment.

This nursery is outstanding. Both my little boys have thrived here. My two-year-old is still attending the nursery on a full-time basis and has settled very well. They are very caring, and their level of experience and professionalism is impressive. I have tried other nurseries close by, and I have
to say, this by far is the best in the area. You will not be disappointed! It is highly recommended.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending Kindred Little Learners since he was two years old and we have been continuously impressed with the level of care, structure and attention to detail which the staff at Little Learners provide. Communication to parents is great, with often daily updates and pictures on how the
kids are doing and staff are always open to discussing children’s progress. My son is now leaving for school and I am really impressed with what he has learnt over the past year, to prepare him for school, despite all the hurdles of Covid etc. The staff and management managed this challenging period very well and it was a real source of stability for my son during this time. I am delighted with the progress my son has made during his time at Little Learners and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to any prospective parents.

Our daughter has attended Little Learners since she was two and our youngest will attend when he turns two. When we initially visited Little Learners it stood out to us because of the experience of the staff, their commitment to the children, and the space and facilities on offer. The development of
our child has been a real focus of the nursery and their communication is proactive and excellent, both in person and via the app they use. We feel that our daughter is very well prepared for school in September. The staff know the children so well and many have been there for such a long time that you just have a feeling that they love the children and are treated well by management.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I had my 2 children attending Kindred Little Learners since 2018 and my youngest one will be starting reception in September 2021. What a wonderful learning journey they both had at the nursery!
The nursery has won me from my first tour visit there, and I visited quite a few in the Bromley area. They
are very well structured, have fantastic nursery setting and amazing, professional and lovely staff that I can't praize highly enough! Both of my children were very happy there and made some good friends that they have stayed in touch since their nursery days.
There is an app where parents are being informed what their child was doing during the day including pictures which is great, together with the reports about the progress of their child.
Pre-school is fantastic, the children know how to write and sound all alphabet letters and can count until 100, well prepared to start school.
A huge thank you to all the staff that make it happen and look after our little ones when we can't!

Wonderful nursery, my daughter has been attending since 2 years old and she is now nearly 4! My son also started back in January and absolutely loves this nursery. Both settled extremely well and have built so much confidence. I will be sending my 3rd child too! My daughter has received so much help
with her speech and language and has developed so much. I thank the staff very much for their ongoing support.
As for the management team, I think they are so approachable and helpful. Every time I had a query it was solved professionally and quickly. As I said, exceptional managers and staff.

We moved to this nursery from another and it was like night and day. We are so pleased and so lucky to have such a wonderful place for our son to attend. The last year has been a challenging time for everyone but Little Learners have handled the situation amazingly. We have always felt confident in
their safety measures and care.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.717)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.717) out of 10 for Kindred Little Learners Nursery and Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 6 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 4.886 for Kindred Little Learners Nursery and Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (62 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 70 Ratings = 4.886
  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 3.831 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kindred Little Learners Nursery and Pre-school is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 130 number of registered child places is 26. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 26 = 0.231
  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.
