I am so pleased with our choice to send our daughter to Kiddi Caru. She loves it there and is doing so well. I love the variety of activities they do and I know she adores playing in the garden or going in the sensory play room. She naps well and eats well which I take as signs she’s very comfortable there. Her key worker takes the time every day to talk to me about how my daughter has been and what they’ve been up to. Never expected to just pick her up and leave. I was dreading going back to work and leaving my daughter in Nursery but Kiddi Caru have made the whole transition very easy and I am happier at work knowing my daughter is happy where she is.
Great nursery and my daughter loves it! She has been learning so much and she is developing new skills every day.
Our little girl loves it at Kiddi Caru! She is thriving in the friendly and fun atmosphere created by the great team and other equally happy pupils!!
Great varied diet, safe and secure environment and plenty of fun and interesting activities for the kids!!
Can’t recommend the nursery highly enough!!
My son absolutely loves going to 'school'. This is complemented by the friendly and helpful staff that work there. His own development has been really positive over the last couple of years and I'd like to think that this was partly down to the support he gets from Kiddi Caru.
My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 1yr old. The care she received has varied over the years (she’s now 4), however, in the last 6mths, the care in the preschool room is really great. The room leader is great - you can tell she genuinely cares for the children. My daughter who is bright has picked up numbers, letters can do simple addition and has grown in confidence. I put more emphasis on how much they care for my child than learning (she’s got years of that ahead of her). But they’re doing great at both. My thanks to the manager and staff for making my daughter happy.
My daughter has been there for nearly 3 years now and has made loads of friends there. All the staff know her.
Excellent day nursery, friendly staff who are well trained, they offer quality care and support. We are very happy with the Kiddi Caru Whiteley.
All in all a good nursery, we have used it for both our children, second is still there.
Staff are great and they do a huge range of activities, they use the garden lots and take occasional trips out in the local area too. Always messy play, themed activities, reading, and general toys.
Kiddi Caru has bent over backwards to accommodate my daughter's complex medical needs. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and management. She really enjoys her time at nursery.
Our family could not be happier with Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Whiteley! Our family recently moved to the area and the nursery staff and teachers welcomed our family and children with such warmth and kindness. Our children leave nursery every day with a smile and plenty of adventures to share. Thank you to the teachers for all you do and for caring for our children in such a special way! It is much appreciated!
I have and will continue to recommend the nursery to friend and family.
She is always happy when I pick her up and usually tired from all of the lovely activities they do. I cannot fault anything, I had one issue which I raised and it was addressed immediately, we have not had any problems at all since.
Absolutely love this nursery, the staff are all so friendly, attentive and encouraging. My daughter is extremely happy here. Would highly recommend to anyone.
My child has thrived here. She is confident, sociable and fully prepared for school. The staff are caring and the nursery is very efficiently run.
The staff are so very caring and have helped with our difficult family situation and have spent much time with him. The learning is great too and the managers are lovely and always have time to listen. I could not have picked a better nursery.
The girls that look after my daughters have a lovely relationship with them and always welcome them when they come in. In the evening when I collect them, I get a hand over talking about their day and they always do so many different activities, paint, garden, jelly play, dressing up, water and sand. The food is always varied and the girls love it.
He has shown lots of learning the last two months and coming home proud of his achievements.
Happy that he's being listened to.
My son has really enjoyed his days at nursery and he always comes home happy due to the excellent care given to him by the staff especially his key carer. There is always a range of activities provided for him to develop his learning through play and a wide range of sensory/messy play. He has opportunities to play outside in all weathers and also to access the wonderful sensory room every week.
My experience has been very good. My daughter has just moved rooms and has settled really well. Staff make her feel welcome and have helped her develop and encourage her to try new things.
Always happy and helpful staff who are willing to go that extra mile.
