I cannot praise Kindred Boxmoor enough. My little boy loves it! All the staff are so friendly and approachable even towards siblings who do not attend. It really has an amazing personable family feel to it. So pleased we chose it and excited to see it though to pre school!
Creating a true home from home environment is at the heart of everything we...
She comes away telling us about her day, new stories or songs. They do so many activities and keep them busy all day. She recently moved to her new room, they made the adjustment so easy for her. She misses her old room, but still gets her warm hellos from previous corers. Kindred really was the best decision for us, we are so happy we found you. Our daughter loves her nursery days, and her nursery family.
At Kindred, we take great pride in creating a home from home...
I was apprehensive when my son started, but seeing him fall in love with nursery helped immensely. He was very poorly when he started, and the team were incredible with their support and care, and they even got the class together to send a "get well soon" message! It's wonderful to watch him thrive, and I feel that Kindred is not just occupying him for the day, but really helping him learn and develop too. The food is brilliant, especially when it comes to allergies (it's a completely nut and grape free setting) and he'll try new and interesting things that he wouldn't dream of eating at home.
I'm so glad we picked Kindred Hemel for our son! Massive shout out to Amanda, Jade, Phoebe, Chloe, Janine and Rebecca for their unending support.
It means...
What made the biggest difference was seeing how happy my little man was every single day. Watching him walk in with a smile, excited and confident, turned what could have been a scary transition into the most beautiful journey for both of us.
Kindred isn't just a nursery - it's one big, loving family. The love, joy, and genuine care that fill those rooms are beyond anything I could have hoped for. It's a place where children take their first steps into the world with freedom, support, and so much happiness.
If you're reading this and looking for somewhere special for your child - I would 100,000% recommend Kindred. They've given us memories I will always be grateful for.

Our child has been attending the nursery since April 2025 and we are consistently impressed and really happy with the nursery.

He is so happy at nursery and we love it!

The staff at Kindred Hemel have been so welcoming and supportive which has ensured my little boy has had the best start to his nursery journey.

Kindred completely changed my outlook on nurseries, being able to provide love, care, professionalism, communication, great activities, great food and an environment that makes my child always wanting to come in. Staff make you feel like your child is number one and its amazing to hear that every parent feels the same way, it's impressive to have that level of passion and dedication. My child has developed into an independent toddler whilst still getting the cuddles or nurture when needed, and it never feels like an inconvenience. I sing their praises to everyone and will continue to do so because they are just that good.

Our little boy took a while to settle in, often crying at drop-off and collection. The staff quickly got to know him and realised how much he loves being outdoors. On tougher days, they made sure he spent extra time in the garden, which made such a difference. Shortly after starting, he had to have an operation, and we were so touched to receive a photo of his class holding a "get well soon" banner. It showed just how much they care.
Now, he happily walks into nursery-sometimes without even saying goodbye! In fact, we often face tantrums in the car park because he doesn't want to leave. The whole place has such a family feel, and it's so reassuring to know he's spending his day surrounded by love, cuddles, and care.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We're thrilled to hear how happy your little boy is at Kindred Hemel Hempstead and how well he's settled in, even after a tricky start.

My little girl is so happy in their care and I have nothing but good things to say about them. I love how I can check the app to see what she's having at meal time (always very nutritious) and they keep you updated with naps etc.
They provide them with fun activities to do and have a lovely outdoor area that my little girl thoroughly enjoys.
Thanks to everyone at Kindred for working so hard to care for our little one's.

Having used another nursery for our first born, switching nurseries for our second child felt daunting, but it has turned out to be the best decision we made. The staff at Kindred are what makes it such an amazing place, all of them are warm and friendly and supportive of the children, they take a real interest in all of the children, and it feels like walking into a family home. We couldn't be happier with the nursery and would highly recommend to others.

The care our boy gets in Learning Lane is PHENOMENAL. The room lead and key worker is exactly who you want looking after a child. Really kind, super knowledgeable, organised, fun, and imaginative. We love picking him up and hearing all about his day. The other person who regularly looks after him in the room may be the sweetest person ever and is so genuinely excited with every little development our little guy makes.
Thank you for your kind review. It's wonderful to have you and your little man be a part of our family here at Kindred Hemel Hempstead. We are passionate about our vocation and we're so pleased to hear that you can see and feel this in the care we provide your son. Here's to us continuing to help him grow and thrive through the creation of moments of awe and wonder.
Our grandson attends the above nursery and he absolutely loves it and does not want to leave when it's his hometime, he really enjoys outdoor playtime and the vast choices of food on offer.
