Absolutely brilliant nursery, my little girl has been going here for 5 months now and she loves it.
The staff that look after her are amazing and you are kept very well informed of everything they have been doing so you can see how much they are developing. They do so much with them.
Great security
in place also, so no worrying at all.

My daughter has loved every minute of Kiddi Caru. The staff are caring, friendly and endlessly patient. My daughter leaves Kiddi Caru every day in such a good, happy and chatty mood. I can tell she loves it even though she's not yet talking!

Staff, facilities and approach have all been fantastic. I viewed many nurseries and have been very pleased that I chose this one. A few months after my one-year-old started he generally appears happy to get to nursery, pleased to see his carers and happily playing at collection. The variety of activities
that they do reassure me that he is learning more from being at nursery 3 days per week than he would learn from being with me full time.

I’ve had my Son attend Kiddi Caru for 6 months now and the level of care I feel they have given to my boy is outstanding. I get kept up to date on everything daily. I feel they really take on board our needs as parents and have really helped my son's development. I would highly recommend this Nursery
to anyone.

Excellent, purpose-built facility with great layout that caters to special dietary requirements. I have found all the staff to be extremely approachable and helpful.
The nursery is also excellent at communicating with parents.
Thoroughly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started nursery with Kiddi Caru in January 2020, the settling period was amazing and in a week my daughter was settled. We have seen so much improvement in her communication over the last 6 weeks and they are always doing alot of activities which is very stimulating and great for her. The
daily feedback is great and I believe we made a good choice in choosing this nursery. My only advise would be to include the meal she's had daily on the update sheet, although the teachers tell us but we sometimes forget when we get home due to a busy day at work. Apart from that everything is great so far.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since my daughter joined the nursery 6 months ago, we have nothing but positive things to say. It's very apparent that the children's happiness and safety is at the forefront of all of the staff's priorities and they show this day in and day out. The mixture of activities keeps our little one busy and
excited about her day ahead. We are sent keepsakes home on a weekly basis, and they give a very detailed update of her day on every pick up.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son settled down very quickly and has made a lot of progress. He attended a nursery before and never settled hence I withdrew him and brought him to Kiddi Caru. I have never regretted it to date and will recommend Kiddi Caru at the drop of a hat.


The staff are friendly and extremely professional

and the managers are hands on too. It is always lovely to see them on the floors and not just in the office.


My mind is at rest when I have to drop off my child and the fact that there are times he doesn’t want to come home after a day at nursery.


His keyworker is a Godsend and all the ladies in the room.


Amazing place for fun and learning


Well done Kiddi Caru.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are fantastic - they form great bonds with the children, are brilliantly calm and portray a happy outlook.
They do great activities in the form of play but which significantly aid learning and are also happy to discuss any concerns you might have regarding your child.
I couldn't fault any
of the nursery staff who have been in the rooms with my daughter over the last 2.5 years and have enjoyed my interactions with them too.
My daughter seems very happy there.
The facilities are also good with great garden areas and sensory shed and I love the focus throughout the year on different books and linking this with activities and learning.

My son has been attending Kiddi Caru Harlow for the past 13 months, we searched a number of nurseries and visited several more, as soon as we walked into Kiddi Caru, we knew our son would thrive in their caring, fun and stimulating environment and they would be able to support our son on his journey
through to primary school.


The staff are attentive, knowledgeable and engage fantastically well with the children. The food choices are excellent and we are very happy that we chose Kiddi Caru!


Our son starts school this September and both my partner and I said we actually wish he was staying longer! It's been great and if you are considering Kiddi Caru Harlow - do it, you won't be disappointed.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been taking my daughter to Kiddi Caru Nursery since when she was 12 months.


Apart from the fact that it is a very clean nursery, the management and the nurses are just amazing. They are friendly, supportive and very polite and kind.


My daughter absolutely loved the girls and she settled

in within a week.
I can't imagine having taken my daughter anywhere else if it wasn't this one. We are extremely happy with our daughter's development and behaviour. She is not 2 yet and she can already speak very well, count and say nursery rhymes perfectly well. She is a very good listener and has excellent behaviour.


More importantly, we feel safe leaving our daughter here full time from 7-6, the safeguard here is very high.


We definitively recommend this nursery to every parent.

I cannot recommend this nursery enough! Our 2 year old has been attending since December & has come on so much since starting. She took a while to settle (currently only attends one day a week) and the staff went above and beyond to help her settle in. She now runs into the nursery! The staff are so
good with the children and are really caring. The facilities (garden, sensory cabin) are really good & the food is healthy & fun. The nursery is fun but also focuses on children’s development. Well worth the money.

My daughter really enjoys this nursery. She eats everything throughout the day (which she doesn't always do at home). She comes home singing songs and has made friends. The staff are enthusiastic, caring and skilled. They have supported my daughter's potty training brilliantly. Wide range of activities
and equipment and the large outdoor space and sensory cabin are all great.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.478)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.478) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Harlow is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 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 4.628 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Harlow is calculated as follows: ( (159 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (20 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 215 Ratings = 4.628
  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 4.85 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Harlow is based on 17 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.85
  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.
