Management- there is always a issue entering the nursery around 5pm. With no management being available to answer the door causing ques and delays. More staff needed.
HR- hard to follow invoices with no mathematical calculation present so you are able to track how your bill is calculated
Payment-
payment for bank holidays and holidays the child takes even if you give nursery months ahead notice. Cost of food is too high- we are charged 260 per month for full time food and we only spend 350£ for 3 of us at home.
Staff- often have lost child belongings and wore his shoes without socks and act as if they haven't noticed. There was an occasion we had to wait 30mins for the team to find his shoes so he didn't walk home with just socks on.
Often in actives our child gets injured due to lack of supervision e.g. our child now has a permanent scar on his eye lid from falling over in water play.

My daughter really enjoys her time at nursery. She has built great relationships with the team. And her experience, activities and development has come on leaps and bounds.
However I do feel that for the activities we are being charged a lot more than the value of the activities themselves, and feel
that the costs can be more fairly set.
My child loves her experience, and had grown so much, but the cost is far higher than needed.

Kiddi Caru Writtle was everything I wanted from a nursery for my son. He attended from January 2020 to August 2023 (baby room through to graduating pre-school) and throughout that time received the best care possible. The lovely staff all knew him and seemed to enjoy his company, they catered to his
interests and were keen to work with us if there were (rarely!) any problems. They were careful with food preferences (mild tomato allergy as a baby and vegetarian) and the food appeared to be tasty and nutritious. Far more so than the school he's at now! The Forest School and outside space was my main reason for choosing Kiddi Caru, and my son loved spending so much time outside. He also loved the fish in reception, all his key workers and he often asked to go to nursery on non-nursery days. I will remember his time at Kiddi Caru very fondly and am so grateful to all the staff for making it such a lovely experience for him.

Our little boy absolutely loved his time at Kiddi Caru in Writtle. We moved from South Africa in November 2022, and our boy started attending from the 2nd week after we arrived, until it was time to start reception in September 2023. The team did an amazing job helping him to settle in, given the upheaval
of moving country, and he thrived. The forest school was his favourite, and he always had lots of stories to tell when he got home. Thank you to the Kiddi Caru Writtle team for their amazing work!

They are supported and encouraged to go at their own pace so they truly feel happy, confident and secure in our nursery environment.

Absolutely love this nursery.
My child has been extremely happy and looks forward to going.
Staff are always friendly, and I always get a warm welcome and exceptional feedback when I collect my child.
Also, when I do collect my child, all the other children in the class say hello, and it goes to
show how confident and comfortable the children are.
I love that the nursery is very child-led and encourages children to learn through playing, and they offer balanced healthy meals, which my child loves.

As a first time mum it was really important to me to find the right setting for my daughter when I returned to work when she was 9 months. Kiddi Caru was the place. After viewing multiple nurseries in the local area, I instantly fell in love with the setting. I love their outdoor area and the fact they
use it in all weathers. I love the personalised care my daughter receives. She is known by not only the adults within her room, but other adults know her by name also, giving it that family feel. The facilities within the Dormice room are incredible and the activities the children are exposed to on a daily basis are enriching and engaging. The handover after each day is detailed and the information is also put on an app for both parents to see throughout the day. Overall, I’m very happy with the care, love and support the nursery provide my little one. I can rest easy knowing she is in safe hands whilst at work.
Reply from Charlotte Whyatt, Marketing and Communications Executive at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Writtle, ChelmsfordHi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

I think the nursery offers a great space for the kids to learn, with lots of different actives. The only thing I believe they could do better is now my little one is in preschool, they could help parents or inform parents if they want on areas to improve education, our nursery tells us what he’s been
doing and learning, suggesting areas to improve would help me, I do except not everyone will like this!

Our little one has been with Kiddi Caru Writtle for 7 months. I am so impressed with the nursery. The staff are very friendly, helpful and dedicated. They helped our son settle very well. He loves going to nursery so I feel at ease when he’s there. Our little one has an egg allergy but the nursery has
been absolutely brilliant with it which is very important to us. There is also ample parking making drop off and pick up very easy. The management team are fantastic, always professional but very understanding and friendly. I can very highly recommend Kiddi Caru Writtle.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The facilities and care are amazing, I feel rest assured having gone back to work that my child is cared for. I viewed a few nurseries and this was by far the best in all aspects. The staff are so friendly and supportive. Her development and progress with feeding has come on leaps and bounds with their
practice. I love the app to be able to see what she’s eaten and changed and also photos of what she has been up to in the day. Again, it provides me reassurance. My only negative is, as parents are still expected to pay on bank holidays regardless of their child is in or not, If possible some flexibility would be good with regards to swapping a day for special occasions or circumstances, if there is space on those days. I was told that this is not something the nursery offer.

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 118 number of registered child places is 23.6, which has been reached with 24 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
