Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at the nursery for almost 2 years. The management is excellent and very organised. The staff are very caring, and my daughter is very fond of them. There is great outside space and the children get out at least once every day, come rain or shine.


The food is great and the activities

are both fun and educational. I thoroughly recommend this nursery and am really pleased with my daughter’s progress.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been with Kiddi Caru since he was 8 months old and he now leaves in a few weeks to start primary school. Every member of staff has been approachable, knowledgeable and keen to assist in the learning of the children. I can't thank them enough for helping to make him the happy, enthusiastic,
fun, confident little boy he is turning into. He will miss coming but new adventures await.


If anyone has any doubts about sending their child to nursery, please don't, they have so much fun and learn so much. I highly recommend Kiddi Caru.


Thank you to all the Staff x

The staff are communicative and friendly. They support my son with whatever he needs and are helpful and gentle in their approach with such young kids and parents. I can be anxious and worry about my boy's behaviour but his key worker and nursery manager are so good with how they manage this. I’d recommend
the Harlow setting to anyone.

Amazing staff who have helped my daughter settle in so easily. She practically dives out of my arms into theirs each morning now. Staff are always happy to answer any questions you have however minor they may be.


Menu is varied and nutritional. I wish I had the same as they have available on a daily

basis.


Updated report provided by them on a daily basis shows the development of your child which is fantastic.


Can't fault them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Kiddi Caru Harlow is amazing! My son absolutely loves it here and I have seen him grow so much since he joined a year ago. All the staff are wonderful and you can truly see how much they care about every individual child in their care. One of the many reasons I chose this nursery was because of the
safety of their premises - The large garden is secured with high fences which means it is not overlooked by passers-by. I couldn't recommend KC enough!

My daughter goes to Kiddi Caru since she is 1 and we are happy with her progress at this nursery. If we’re having another child, we’re definitely going to send it to Kiddi Caru as well.

All Staff I have met are very helpful, knowledgeable and passionate about the child care they provide. My son always comes home very happy. They always eat well with a good range of healthy nutritional food. Communication from the nursery either verbal or electronic is very good at keeping you up to
date with children's progress and things happening with or in the nursery. Regular reviews and parents evenings are great at keeping you up to date with progress and where your child is and should be in their development.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter loves her day at Kiddi Caru each week. The staff both in her room and in the other rooms and office are friendly, welcoming and knowledgable. They are very conscientious when it comes to our daughter’s allergies and any illness she or the other kids have. Communication is great, we regularly
receive email updates as well as a comprehensive summary of what she’s done each day, covering play, food and nap times. Her development has come on leaps and bounds, from her language to imaginative play. Five stars, highly recommended.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started Kiddi Caru (Harlow) when she was 10 months old and due to the wonderful staff she was able to settle into nursery life without any problems. From day one I came out feeling positive and happy with my choice of nursery. She has been going for almost 2 years now and has thrived and
grown in confidence week by week. I visited many other nurseries before making a decision and Kiddi Caru was always the one nursery that stuck out as exceptional and that I kept comparing other nurseries to. The staff are amazing and always keep you updated on everything that goes on during your child's day. My daughter comes home full of the wonderful things she has done or learnt and some days does not want to leave. She daughter has developed so well at Kiddi Caru and that is down to the effort and overall standards that the nursery practice. She is encouraged to be independent and become confident in her own ability and as a parent that is all you want from a nursery.

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.
