My daughter has attended Kiddi Caru Nursery since she was 11 months old and is about to transition to the Teal room for 18-24 month olds. As she's my first baby I was quite anxious about her starting nursery and me returning to work but the settling in sessions provided me with the assurance that she
would be happy there and she is! Since my daughter started the staff have been fantastic, they really care about her and her development and I get a brilliant summary of what she's been up to during the day when I collect her. The nursery is really responsive to queries, the app is great, there's lots of activities throughout the day and the food my daughter is provided is varied and she is able to have more if she wants it. Overall we're really happy with Kiddi Caru and we recommend it.

We now have two girls attending Kiddi Caru, Burgess Hill, and they are both very happy there. The best thing about the nursery is the staff, who make our girls feel so welcome and loved. They put a lot of effort into ensuring that the girls are kept entertained and have a variety of experiences. However,
they do have to do their best with not a huge amount of resources.
Unfortunately, the gardens are very lacking and are in desperate need of attention; some play equipment and plants would be very beneficial.

Teal Room - the team have been so amazing with my little one. They are always ensuring updates are kept on app, my little one has everything they need and is happy to be with them on a day to day basis. They all seem to enjoy spending time with my little one and help them with their development whether
it's leading to stand, walk, eat with a spoon or drink from a sippy cup. The team is always happy, positive, helpful and willing to do what is best for the little ones they take care of. Big thank you to the team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We previously had our daughter in another nursery and found she was not thriving or bonding with any of the staff or children there. She was so distressed when we dropped her off. So we moved her to Kiddi Caru and honestly it is the best thing we have ever done. She has bonded beautifully with her key
worker. She has lots of friends and enjoys being with the other children. Everyday she does something different and she is learning so much and is always coming home with new skills she has learnt while being there. She is so happy when we drop her off.
The staff keep us updated and we love the app and the photos of what she has been doing that day and when she is achieving. I cannot recommend this nursery enough. We are so pleased she is there!

My son is so happy to go into nursery three days a week. He is picking up lots of new skills and the staff keep him engaged with lots of different activities. He particularly adores one staff member who is always so approachable and caring and I feel confident leaving him in her care. The team always
keep us informed of any issues and highlight little wins he has had through the day. He is happy when we drop him off and pick him up which is a great comfort and we are very grateful he has settled in so well to Carolina. Thank you all so much!

My daughter has been going since January 2025 and she absolutely loves it. The staff are so caring and do a wonderful job looking after her. She has developed so much since going and the staff are always encouraging her development. They do fun activities such as water play and playing with flour, and
even learning about different cultures. They've gotten to know her so well and I absolutely trust them to look after my baby. I cannot recommend Kiddi Caru enough.

I've got two kids at this nursery, 4 and 2 and we've been really happy with the care they've both received here. My eldest can sometimes struggle with her emotions, and the team have been really caring around supporting her whether she gets overwhelmed (thank you to a particular staff member :) ). My
youngest seems to be really enjoying herself, sometimes it's a struggle to coax her out of the nursery she's having such a good time! There was a change in management last year, but I haven't noticed much change for the worse. Whenever I have queries, a particular member of staff is really quick to respond to them. No complaints from me, would happily recommend.

My twin boys attend Kiddi Caru in Burgess hill 3 days a week and they always run straight into nursery with smiles on their faces and adore the staff members. When dropping off and picking up the twins, the staff always say hello. The garden has great space for the children to run around and like that
the children go out in all weather's. The twins has recently moved from Geese room to Carolina and the transition was great, the twins already mention their new teachers at home and bring lots of artwork home!

My son has been attending the Carolina room for over 6 months and his progression has been nothing short of impressive. His interaction with other children is great and the skills he is picking up through daily activates laid out by the minders has blown me away.
His minders never seem to be short
of creative and interactive ideas designed to improve motor skills, literacy and social/ interactive ability's.
Very impressed so far.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.619)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.619) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Burgess Hill is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.619 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Burgess Hill is calculated as follows: ( (273 Excellents x 5) + (82 Goods x 4) + (20 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 381 Ratings = 4.619
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Burgess Hill is based on 30 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 100 number of registered child places is 20, which has been reached with 30 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.
