Little Garden The Beaconsfield Day Nursery & Pre-School

My little boy (nearly 2) has come so far since starting at Kiddies Academy and has started repeating words back to us. He loves to play outside and do messy play so he has settled in so well. The manager and staff always provide feedback on his progress.

Our little boy changed nurseries in May 2022 and we were concerned about how he would settle into another nursery. However, we needn't have worried as the nursery and staff are fantastic and he settled in immediately. He is happy to run straight into nursery in the morning and is absolutely thriving since joining Kiddies. There is a huge focus on playing outside, which was very important to us and the development of the garden has been wonderful to see. His speech has developed greatly in the last couple of months, and the attention to providing activities to suit his interests has definitely played a part in this. Overall, we could not be happier with our choice to move our child to Kiddies Academy and we are so pleased with the progress he is making under their care.

I receive daily updates about my daughter's food, sleep and activities along with some photos.

My little boy (a few months shy of 2) loves nursery and is constantly parroting the names of his friends and key workers. There is a big focus on getting the children to play outside which we love and my son’s speech and confidence have grown and grown. There is a little park right outside the nursery where we have a short play after pick up and this is a great way to connect with all the other parents. Overall, we are really pleased with our nursery choice.

I am very pleased with The Kiddies Academy nursery. The staff are friendly and caring, helping my toddler to develop all the necessary skills. By the way, my toddler goes happily to the nursery every day, I can say that this is a happy place, where kids feel safe and enjoy being.

Highly recommend it to any parent wishing to place the child in a caring, organised, and approachable environment.

Moving my daughter here was by far the best move we could have made. Since starting at The Kiddies Academy she has flourished in every area. The team are amazing and so attentive to her needs. She has made some incredible bonds with both staff and children and I couldn't be more thankful. She has only been here since January and will soon sadly be leaving to go up to primary school, but the difference in her really is astounding. The whole team have really gone above and beyond for her I cannot thank them enough. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone who wants a loving nurturing place to provide the best of care for their children.

Lovely staff. Kids are always entertained and developed through varied activities. My boy loves it and walks in with a smile every day. Have only known the nursery through covid times and they have managed it very well.

I couldn't be happier with Kiddies Academy. My 4-year-old has been attending the Nursery for a year and he absolutely enjoys it and I have seen positive changes in his behaviour. The manager and staff team in Preschool have really helped my little one to manage and understand his feelings. The staff members have gone above and beyond to help my little one with his behaviour. They have been very supportive. The Preschool room is very spacious and they have an amazing garden which my little one loves playing in. I am constantly amazed at the different activities they do with the children daily. My little one's key worker always updates me on how he has been doing and what things we can put in place at home as well as Nursery to help my little one further.

I highly recommend Kiddies Academy!

Our son started at Kiddies Academy in the toddler room in 2019 and left in Aug 2021 to start school. The care he received from all the team during his time there has been exceptional. It is a very special nursery and such a nurturing and caring learning environment. Our son absolutely loved it there and thrived. When only children of key workers were allowed to attend nursery during the first lockdown, they were phenomenal. They ran a live Zoom session weekly where we did science experiments so the children could all see their friends and they asked us to send in weekly photos to include in a photo montage to keep them connected. Our son has severe food allergies; he was kept completely safe from his allergens during his time at Kiddies Academy and was able to participate fully in all of the activities, including cooking. They have the most rigorous protocols in place and the cook cooked delicious dairy and soya free meals daily. The manager and deputy are superb and we simply can’t recommend Kiddies Academy enough.

My daughter has been attending Kiddies Academy for the last 10 months. We were a little unsure, having spent the majority of the first 12 months in lockdown, how she would settle at nursery. We are pleased to say she has thrived at Kiddies Academy. I am always amazed at the different creative ways they find to keep the children entertained, exploring and trying new things every week. The food is such a diverse menu. One of the reasons we selected the nursery was due to its outside space and I love the fact that our daughter enjoys the outdoors so much when not at nursery. The staff are kind, patient and always welcoming and appreciate the pictures and comments they add to the parent app. Definitely recommend to friends.

Our two girls absolutely love coming to Kiddies - and that is a reflection of the quality of the experience that the nursery provides. We have experience of all three ‘rooms’ (baby, toddler and pre-school) and we’ve always been really impressed with the way the staff care for, nurture and encourage the children. They have a real focus on providing a truly rounded experience and making learning fun and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

We really can’t praise everyone at Kiddies Academy enough, the development we’ve seen over the last 18 months has been huge. The care and attention that is afforded to each child makes it such an enjoyable experience for them. Each day my daughter runs in, full of excitement as she’s greeted at the door. It’s great to see that she loves it there so much.

All of my children have been and are really happy at Kiddies Academy. They do lots of activities daily and I’m really happy with the variety of food on the menu. The staff are brilliant and the service feels personal rather than transactional.

I was full of worries before my little girl’s first day at nursery. I was nervous about how she would be without me, especially because of the pandemic but the staff at Kiddies Academy were amazing. They made me feel comfortable and reassured me of all my concerns. I left the nursery feeling confident she was in good hands. I’ve worked in some beautiful schools but I’ve always said that it’s the staff that makes the school and that’s definitely the case for Kiddies Academy!

I highly recommend Kiddies Academy. The staff were really patient settling my son in and he’s thrived in his time there. The food menu has changed recently and I’m really happy about the variety. They have different activities every day and I get a good handover from staff. One of the best things is how flexible the nursery is in the sessions they offer and if you need an emergency session, they are very helpful.

I can’t recommend this nursery highly enough. My child is currently being assessed for specific learning difficulties, and the staff have been excellent in providing the extra support he needs. Not only have they been a great support for my child, but have supported and guided me through a very complex and challenging time, especially when covid hit.

The staff are very friendly, welcoming and will go the extra mile to ensure your child is happy and developing their skills ready for school.

Kiddies Academy have been brilliant for both of my girls. We've had about 6 years of care between 2 girls and it's always been first class. There are plenty of educational and play activities and the staff are always looking to create a sensory, educational environment. The facilities are great and the nursery have made the outdoor space a cool place for the children to play. My daughter who is still there is always buzzing at the end of a day!

We were able to settle our daughter prior to her starting, and the staff made sure she got to know them, and they spent time understanding her likes/dislikes and personality. Staff and management regularly update us on our daughter's progress and work collaboratively with us to ensure she is maximising her potential. I would highly recommend Kiddies Academy, we are very pleased our daughter attends here and has thrived in terms of her confidence and development. I would highly recommend.

My grandson attends Kiddies Academy. When he started just before the age of one we were naturally apprehensive, as he would essentially be within this environment for the majority of his time, 8-6, Monday to Friday. This apprehension was met with the most wonderful team. Staff provides our grandson with a home from home feel. We are delighted with the love, and compassion that excels from the nursery. My son and daughter-in-law wanted a nursery that would love their little boy, and we really do feel that. Now that he is in Pre-School, I cannot believe the way he has grown, in part, due to the creative education that he experiences whilst he is at Kiddies. He tells us all about how to be kind. As well as the academic side of things, the nursery focuses on the fundamental parts of being a person. My favourite story from him was when he told us about a 'special nurse' who was a 'superhero' - later finding out he'd learnt about Florence Nightingale - how splendid.
