My son adores the staff at Nursery. He can’t wait to go in, he has a lovely day and I’m never anxious to leave him as the staff listen and always get hold of me over any questions.
I can’t praise Kiddi Caru Colchester enough. It’s genuinely a product of a fabulous team working together and producing a brilliant environment for my son and others.
Thank you, ladies. Very much.
Fantastic experience - my little one started at just 3.5 months old and is now nearly 3, wouldn’t be happy with him anywhere but Kiddi Caru. My other child experienced several nurseries due to moves we made but none offered the all-round experience of Kiddi Caru. ALL of the staff from receptionists to key workers are happy, motivated and on top of their game.
My little boy has been attending Kiddi Caru, Colchester for nearly a year now. I was very nervous when starting him at nursery but the staff couldn't have been more understanding. He has settled in very well and that's down to the staff. His development has come on leaps and bounds. He was 3 months premature and they have helped me with my concerns regarding his development. He has had two key carers now due to moving rooms, who he gets on very well with. The updates they provide are very helpful and nice to read. Learning through play is wonderful.
I was impressed with Kiddi Caru from our first visit, being a nursery nurse myself I knew what to look for. The nursery itself is very well equipped, including a sensory room and several outdoor areas. All the staff have been friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The staff in my daughter's room are always cheerful which I know is hard sometimes and have built up a really good relationship with my daughter. She settled in quickly and really enjoys her time there. We are so pleased we chose Kiddi Caru for our daughter.
our son has really enjoyed nursery and loves all the ladies in his room. We got a really good feeling when we came to look around and our son has settled in so well. I would highly recommend.
She can't really tell me at the moment as she is only young but she gets so excited when I drop her off which fills me with confidence that she is having a great time and she loves all the staff.
We are also very impressed at her varied diet of fresh food cooked on site.
Can't recommend enough.
