The nursery management plays a vital role in the excellent running of this nursery, great admin and daily updates are informative and ensure you are receiving a personalised service. The variety of facilities, features, and play areas is vast. The onsite chef provides fresh daily meals and great food choices for the children.
My daughter graduated this weekend, 9th July, and the graduation ceremony was outstanding and very enjoyable. Clearly, a lot of effort was put in and it went so perfectly well. Great dance by all the children. I truly believe the dedicated care and teachings my daughter has received have prepared my daughter for the next journey of her schooling.
Thank you to the management team and every staff member that has looked after my daughter.

This has been my son's nursery since he was 10 months old. Amazing place where my son leans a lot and where he seems to be happy. Can't emphasise enough how fantastic one lady is with her feedback at the end of the day and how fantastic she is reassuring us when something worries us about our child. She easily shows that she takes pride in her work, and the children love her. I would choose this nursery again if I had another child. Thank you, fantastic team.

Amazing nursery. My daughter has had so much fun here over the past two years and learned so much. The teachers are the absolute best and helped with so much towards her. I honestly cannot fault them.

The nursery is fantastic. The team are friendly and helpful. My son (now 4) started at nine-month and is extremely happy and confident. The team are great in encouraging his interests and independence. I have a happy, confident four-year-old in which the nursery team have played a great part.

My son has been at the nursery since he was 18 months old, and now thanks to all the staff's hard work, he is ready to leave for school. From the beginning, he was welcomed and cared for by the very supportive staff. They helped him to grow in confidence, taught him so much and helped him develop his social skills. We are so happy we sent our son to Kiddi Caru.

Never had a bad thing to say about the nursery. From the day my daughter started, she loved it. Bonded with teachers and made lovely friends. Teachers are so caring and kind that it gives me peace of mind, as a parent, that my child is in good hands.

My son has the most amazing experience at Kiddi Caru. It has been an amazing and wonderful journey. It's sad that my son will be leaving soon for pre-school. He loves nursery and enjoys being at nursery. My son can now count and knows his alphabet, and I have seen him grow physically, mentally and academically. He has achieved a lot, and this is because of his hardworking teachers, who have taught him a lot. The lovely teachers were there for my son from day one he started his journey at Kiddi Caru. I want to say thank you all. I appreciate it a lot!

It's fantastic to hear that our approach has worked so well for your son and that he's been able to achieve so much. We hope he has a great time at pre-school!
Sadly she turned into a scared little girl who wouldn’t engage with anyone except her parents. The nursery said they had no ideas about her sudden change but we are sure something has happened there to change her. Now she is no longer attending for several weeks she is now starting to return to herself and starting to engage with other adults that she had stopped interacting with.
Thank you very much for your feedback, we can reassure you that we are taking your concerns seriously and we have escalated your feedback to the relevant person. If you would like to discuss further, please contact us on 0800 028 4500.
Quite a lovely little nursery. The staff are very caring and attentive. My little one loves going to the nursery every day. The only thing that I have a problem with is the supplement fee that they have added recently, as it can add over £100 to a monthly bill and it doesn’t seem like anything that I can opt-out of.
Thank you kindly for taking the time to review your nursery, it is very much appreciated. Your feedback will be passed onto the nursery management team.
The staff are all very friendly and very good with my daughter when she gets upset dropping her off. She enjoys her day once she's there, and they give great feedback about how her day has been and what she has been doing.
Thank you kindly for taking the time to review your nursery; it is very much appreciated. Your feedback will be passed on to the nursery management team.
