Good nursery overall with daily engagement routines, separate rooms and a clear progression path for kids. The only negative thing about this nursery is cleanliness. When picking up kids the rooms are stinking. The outbreak of diarrhoea, chicken pox and hand foot and mouth is common. Understand that they can't control them but their efforts to minimise the spread are almost non-existent. If the nursery is smelling at the end of the day then something has gone wrong during the day.
Hi there, thank you so much for your review of our Kiddi Caru Nursery & Preschool in Chelmsford City. We are glad that you are happy with the overall education and staff at the nursery. We are, however, sorry to hear about your negative experience with the cleanliness of the nursery. Please be rest...

Fantastic nursery team and setting! Both of my boys love it! We have used the nursery since the start of Covid lockdowns (it remained open for key workers) and have built strong, trusted relationships with the team there. My boys love going and have really strong bonds with their key carers and the wider team.
Hello, we are so pleased to hear that both of your boys have enjoyed nursery and your family have had a great experience with us. We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review, thank you.
The staff were very polite and took great care of my son. I was taken by surprise to find out that my little one had developed a close bonding with one of the staff and enjoyed going to the daycare. Overall, Im very happy with Kiddi Karu Chelmsford.

This nursery has cared for both my children from around 10 months until they progressed to primary school. The staff are lovely and work so hard. Great catering, beautiful garden and sensory room. Both of my children developed well at Kiddi Caru. The graduation day was very special. I have had a child at this nursery since 2014 and will miss all the staff!

Fantastic venue and staff. Our son was at Kiddi Caru Chelmsford for 3 years and attended throughout the covid pandemic. The staff at the nursery were amazing throughout and our son's confidence, character and development are a testament to their approach and hardwork. Highly recommended.
Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It's so lovely to hear that our dedicated, passionate staff were able to help your son develop his confidence and other important skills.
Kiddi Caru has been a wonderful setting for my daughter. She started going at 11 months and left in September to start school. They have been so attentive and nothing is ever too much. The communication is amazing. My daughter has adored her time there and having the staff contribute to her skills has been lovely. She would say or do things and I would ask how do you know that and she would proudly tell me she had learnt it at nursery. To have a nursery setting where you don't have to worry about your child is so precious and know your child is being looked after and nurtured. Very accommodating and you are never made to feel anything is too much.
Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Our team work incredibly hard to provide a fun, supportive and nurturing environment where every child can flourish. Our carefully-curated education programmes aim to help children develop important skills, so it's great to hear that your daughter learnt so much at nursery! We wish her the very best of luck at big school.
My daughter looked forward to going to nursery. She loved the staff and all the activities they did during the day. I was happy to see her come home excited about the day. She attended Kiddi Caru for 2 years and was sad to leave for big school. She loved her teacher. The staff are amazing. So helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Chelmsford, City Centre.

I cannot fault this nursery! I am so grateful for all of the wonderful memories my daughter has made here along with the lovely friends - which include multiple members of staff! Everybody is so kind, helpful and friendly and there's nothing more fulfilling than seeing your child jumping up and down in the corridor buzzing to go in for the day! Thank you so much for everything, I am so lucky to have had such a positive nursery experience which I have so many fond memories of!

She loved every moment of it and was sad to leave to go on to school!
She made close bonds with the staff members and I was always happy with the level of care shown by the staff.
She would always come out smiling and chatting about her day.
I highly recommend Kiddi Caru.
