Kiddi Caru Bedford, a GrandirUK Day Nursery

Thanks.

A fantastic nursery with wonderful facilities and extremely friendly staff This nursery really makes you (as a parent( and your child truly feel as though you are part of a special family! Any kid and parent would be lucky to be apart of this amazing nursery!

Everything excellent.

My child has grown in confidence since joining Kiddi Caru. The staff and nursery have catered to his needs and been supportive throughout his time there. Their communication about my child's development is fantastic. The staff are a credit to the nursery, and I can't thank them enough for everything they have done. I would recommend Kiddi Caru to any parent.

My son attended the nursery for 3 years and I am really happy that I chose Kiddi Caru. I have 2 older boys, who attended different settings and this one is really good. I had my child for 10 hours a day, which is quite a large amount of time. Staff are amazing, knowledgeable and helpful, creative, caring and full of ideas. Place itself is fantastic, big rooms, not by the main road, lots of toys changed regularly, various themes and celebrations. Garden is very well organised with plenty of things to do surrounded by greenery. Road to ride on the trikes, gazebo of outdoor toys, mud kitchen and many more. Nursery has on side chef who cooks amazing food for the children- fresh, healthy, which children eat. 5 star place! I would send another child there if I had that option and I recommend it for my friends.

I highly recommend this nursery.

The experience at this nursery so far has been excellent. Everyone is really caring and helpful. During pick-ups, they give a summary of what my son has been up to and it's quite useful to start a conversation with my son about his day. My son started from Koala and is now in Kangaroo and our experience has been good. The app is good too.

I highly recommend Kiddi Caru Day Nursery, one member of staff and her team are always available and very approachable when I've needed help at short notice and had questions regarding fees and funding. The communication between parents and the staff is great, the use of their app makes it so easy. Our daughter thoroughly enjoys her time at nursery and we feel she is safe, happy and offered many opportunities to learn and play. She eats well there and is always offered a snack for the journey home which is something I've not experienced when my son attended a different nursery a few years ago. The garden is a firm favourite and upon visiting, I noted it is very well kitted out with play areas, cubby holes and protection from the sun, as well as being kept clean and in good order. Since gaining their outstanding Ofsted status, their standards have remained high and the team all seem very happy to be working there.

I’m so glad I picked her to attend Kiddi Caru.

My 10-month-old son attends the nursery and as a first-time mum going back to work, I was rather anxious about the settling-in process. Kiddi Caru were wonderful in putting me at ease, took the time to find out what my son likes and his normal routine at home so that they could replicate it at the setting. My son has settled in extremely well and is smiling and happy when he comes out. The food is amazing, I think that might be my son's favourite part! They offer events that parents/grandparents can attend which are spread fairly so everyone benefits from this. The facilities are good and are constantly improved such as a new floor and a new car track for the babies' room.

Spoken to many other parents about how fantastic this nursery is.

The carers are very good with the kids. Kids are well looked after, my little boy loves going to his nursery. The environment is always clean as well.

Our child started nursery in January but before starting she had a number of settle-in sessions which I feel has really supported in a smooth transition to nursery. We have found all of the staff to be friendly and welcoming, they are very responsive and you gain a great deal of insight into the little ones' day through the app. The activities that are planned and reported to you each week have the right balance of fun and educational, often focusing on a wide range of cultural topics. There is also a lovely sense of community with open days, home learning packs and a family food bank. We are very happy to have chosen this nursery and it has been lovely to witness how much our child has grown and learnt since attending.

I wish we put my child into this nursery sooner. It is always a daunting task trying to decide what is best, but this was the best decision we have made. The improvement in confidence, communication and the support that is provided is amazing. We couldn't ask for more. The updates on the app and the early years education plan and observations bring an extra level of confidence in the nursery to help my child grow and experience new things.

Super nursery. Both my children have always been really happy here and even when my children are having a bad morning the staff are very kind and will always reassure my child. I’m always updated on what they have been doing during the day and there are plenty of opportunities to come into nursery for special events.

My daughter has been attending since September 2023. The nursery is great and provides great updates and one-to-one time. I always feel comfortable dropping her off as I know she is well taken care of. The manager is also a great and helpful leader who you can always reach out to get additional information if needed.

I am so happy with the care provided by Kiddi Caru Bedford. My daughter has developed so much since joining Kiddi Caru and is very eager to attend each day. She talks about the staff with warmth, and she likes all of her teachers and the chef too. One lady has been my daughter’s key person for more than a year; she regularly does observations for her and sends videos and photos to me to update me on my daughter’s learning progress at nursery, which has really helped me have a better understanding of my daughter's activities at school and what my daughter is doing in the nursery! The other teachers also reported my daughter's daily performance and activities in the nursery to me every day after school, which made me feel at ease! The management team are also very helpful; they always try to help in every way they can. Overall, we are happy with the nursery!

The nursery is excellent, and the staff are lovely. I am always well informed about anything to do with my child and anything regarding the nursery, like changes to staff and any events or activities of interest.

Bedford Kiddi Karu has really blown away our expectations of childcare. It's like a home away from home for the two days a week our daughter goes. She loves them, and I have complete faith in handing her over, knowing she always has the best day. When she was younger, she would kick her little legs when she saw the nursery. Now she's older, she goes straight in; you can just tell she's happy there. They always do so much with her, and they have definitely contributed to so many skills she has learnt. I couldn't recommend or thank them enough.

We are really pleased that our son is starting his nursery in Kiddi Caru, we could see the changes in his daily life, he is really confident to meet his peer group or other people. He is exploring more after attending nursery and becoming socially independent. He is also exploring different foods and getting better in eating different foods. His communication is really great according to his age. We as parents are really privileged that our son is part of Kiddi Caru. Administrative way also we feel connected and we are allowed to raise our worries being a parent to them. Thank you team Kiddi Caru. You all are amazing.
