Our daughter recently started at Kindred and we can’t thank the team enough for welcoming her in. It’s a great setting, with caring staff and lots of varied activities for children. Our daughter comes home happy which is the most important thing.

My daughter has settled in at Kindred so well. The staff are very supportive and are always cheerful and friendly. She absolutely loves going. The updates on the parent's app are really reassuring. She has really grown in confidence being there and I think it is great preparation for starting school.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at Kindred for a year and a half and I could not be happier with her nursery. The teachers and practitioners are unmatchable, always cheerful, helpful and reassuring. There is a very no-nonsense approach to this nursery, which I really appreciate: reliability, common sense and wholesome
values. The children are helped in their socialisation journey and supported in their learning experience. Independence and kindness are the two greatest values that my daughter has been learning in nursery. The children are encouraged to practice their best skills and build their self-confidence on those, while also being introduced to letters, numbers and logics.
Only points to slightly improve on: more frequent updates through the app would be nice and perhaps lower fees...but that is London for you in most cases.

My 5 year old son attended Little Learners from when he was 2 years old until he started primary school. He loved it. The staff are professional, very caring and very approachable. I always knew he was in safe hands. The set up in the older class is such that the transition to primary school reception
is seamless, so my son had no problem starting reception. So when I had my daughter I didn’t think twice about sending her as well. She also started as soon as she was 2 years old and so far has had the same experience. I have recommended Little Learners to all of my friends. It’s a great place.

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!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.

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.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.826)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.826) 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 4.8 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 9 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 4.780 for Kindred Little Learners Nursery and Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (100 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 118 Ratings = 4.78
  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 4.046 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kindred Little Learners Nursery and Pre-school is based on 9 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.7
    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. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 26 = 0.346
  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.
