My first child was there from 9 months all the way to pre school and he absolutely loved it and all the staff are extremely lovely and helpful. My second child also goes there, she is now 2 and is having a great time, doing lots of activities which I get regular updates through the app. These updates
include monthly progress updates with detailed information on how they are getting on as well as focus areas if needed.
They get a good variety of different foods throughout the day.


Really happy with the service.

The staff and Kindred Huntingdon are amazing, they have been welcoming from the start and everyone is always so friendly and willing to give their time if you need anything. They have given advice and suggestions with our food challenges, and have been patient and understanding when needed as well.
We could not recommend the nursery enough. Our daughter loves going there, and speaks frequently about all her friends, both staff and peers.

Kindred was amazing from the start with my first child, I was understandably worried to leave him for the first time but they were assuring from the off. When my second son started they continued to be supportive and informative. I have had a few invoice issues but they have been resolved fairly quickly,
I did not receive sibling discount from the start of my second son starting as I didn't realise this was something that was offered, this was added and back dated when it was pointed out. Overall I would recommend kindred, the app is very good and you are kept updated throughout the day on food, naps, injuries and activities. The staff are friendly, the key workers do change often which can be frustrating but I understand this is not the nurseries fault. The food is freshly cooked and sounds great, however, they changed the menu recently and this has had a massive impact on how much my children are eating.
Reply from Niki McCormick, Marketing Admin at Kindred Huntingdon Nursery and Pre-schoolThank you for your balanced thoughtful review and recommendation. We're really pleased to hear that from the very beginning you felt reassured and supported, and that this continued when your second son joined us - especially during those important early transitions.
It's lovely to know our app and daily updates help you feel connected to your children's day, and that our team's warmth and freshly cooked meals have stood out. Creating a home from home where children feel safe, cared for and excited to attend is always at the heart of what we do, and we're glad this has been your experience overall.
We appreciate your understanding around key worker changes and are grateful for your honest feedback regarding invoicing and the recent menu change. Feedback like this is incredibly important to us and helps us reflect and improve. Our aim is always to create an environment full of awe and wonder, where children feel happy, nourished and supported to thrive.

Son started pre-school with the nursery. He's been very poorly on and off with a lot of current issues but they've helped him settle in so well. Everyone is so welcoming and kind he has struggled with eating (still does) but is slowly getting there with their perseverance. Always happy when I take him
and pick him up, he never ever has any issues and loves talking about his day with the lovely team and his friends.
Reply from Niki McCormick, Marketing Admin at Kindred Huntingdon Nursery and Pre-schoolThank you so much for sharing your lovely feedback. We're really pleased to hear how well your son has settled into pre-school, especially during a time when he has been dealing with health challenges. The team take great pride in being patient, welcoming and supportive, and it's wonderful to know their perseverance - particularly around mealtimes - is making a positive difference.
Hearing that he arrives happy, leaves happy, and enjoys sharing stories about his day with the team and his friends means so much to us. Creating a true home from home, where children feel safe, nurtured and understood, is exactly what we strive for every day.
Thank you for trusting us with your son's care. We're delighted to be part of his journey and to help spark moments of awe and wonder as he continues to grow, gain confidence and enjoy his nursery days.

My son at has been at kindred Huntingdon for the past 3 years and we couldn't be more positive about the place. The staff are just wonderful- our little boy is thriving and the staff are constantly finding new ways to teach him, and to help us when we need to work on things to aid him.
We love the
resources and the creativity the staff bring in all they do with the children.
They also bring in great activities with outside instructors; dance classes and gymnastics, and yoga. Our little one loves to come home and show us all he's learnt.
We've had different challenges over the years and every time, the staff show up and do all they can to help. Be it with behaviour issues, or struggles as parents - we feel so looked after and I'd always recommend this nursery to others.
My son has such a beautiful connection with his peers and his practitioners. He's been so excited over the Christmas period with all they fun they've had and the amazing crafts he's brought home. It's just wonderful
Reply from Niki McCormick, Marketing Admin at Kindred Huntingdon Nursery and Pre-schoolThank you so much for taking the time to share your kind review. We are absolutely delighted to hear how positive your family's experience has been over the past three years at Kindred Huntingdon.
It means so much to know that your little boy is thriving and that the team's creativity, resources and enrichment activities help spark his curiosity and sense of awe and wonder each day. We are especially pleased that the external sessions such as dance, gymnastics and yoga have been such a hit and that he enjoys sharing what he's learned at home.
Supporting children and families through both joyful moments and more challenging times is incredibly important to us, so it's wonderful to hear that you have felt supported, listened to and cared for along the way. Creating strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents is at the heart of making the nursery a true home from home.
Thank you for your recommendation. We feel very lucky to be part of your son's early years journey.

I have had a child go through Kindred Huntingdon from the baby room until the end of Pre-School. He loved the nursery and all of the staff were brilliant with him. He still comes with me to drop his sister off and all of the staff always take the time to ask him how school is and what he has been doing.
He loves coming to see the staff and having a chat with them. The staff were brilliant through his pre-school experience and his keyworker on particular was fantastic, supporting him and encouraging him through the year and taking time to support him through drop off as he struggled to go in at times as he was getting upset.


My youngest is now in Learning Lane having been through the baby room. She loves nursery and is always happy to go and runs in very excited.


We have good communication from the staff and they keep the app updated which is nice as we can always see how their day is going when we check.


I would highly recommend Kindred Huntingdon.

We're incredibly proud to be a home from home for our children and families, and it's lovely to know that your eldest still feels such a strong connection with the staff and enjoys coming back to visit.

As a mother of a little boy, I couldn't be happier with this nursery. The staff are warm, patient, and truly understand how to bring out the best in him. He runs in with a smile every morning and comes home full of stories and new skills. The environment is safe, nurturing, and full of opportunities
to learn and play. It has been getting better and better since we joined about a year ago. Highly recommended!

Our daughter has been at Kindred Brampton for 2.5 years and the experience has been entirely positive. The staff throughout have had her best interests at heart, welcoming at the start of the day and sharing details at the end.


Regular photos and updates are also amazing. They also do special events

which our little one looks forward to (crazy hair day being her favourite!).


They have an amazing outside space which overlooks the field, with animals which the children can see


She also eats everything put in front of her (which isn't always the case at home!).


I would recommend kindred in a heartbeat!

Kindred Nursery Huntingdon has been an incredible part of our family's journey. For the past 3 and a half years, they've cared for our eldest with such dedication, and over the last six months, our youngest has also thrived under their nurturing guidance.


From day one, the staff have shown genuine

warmth, professionalism, and a deep understanding of each child's individual needs. It's been such a comfort to head to work each day knowing my children are not only safe, but happy, engaged, and truly cared for.


The team creates a joyful, stimulating environment where children can grow, learn, and build confidence. I've seen both of mine flourish socially and emotionally, and I couldn't be more grateful.


I would wholeheartedly recommend Kindred Nursery Huntingdon to any parent looking for a place where their child will be treated with kindness, respect, and love. They've been amazing-and we feel so lucky to have found them.

My husband and I looked around the nursery a couple of times before sending our son here. As we had concerns about a previous nursery we had sent our eldest to.
We are so pleased we sent our son here as he has already achieved so many milestones even though he is 1. The staff members in the room are
all super helpful and nothing is a problem they can't solve.
Our son loves going into the nursery and seeing his friends and the staff, he's also now very quick to crawl and join in any activities on offer.
We cannot wait to see what the remainder of his journey with the nursery is like.

We moved our son to Kindred in June 2023, following some serious issues at another local nursery. Since starting at Kindred our son has flourished and has grown into a confident and happy little boy. The nursery staff have been incredible with helping him overcome some behavioral issues, and are constantly
adapting their approach with him to keep him engaged and content in his environment. He has formed some fantastic friendships and has a loving relationship with his key workers.
I really couldn't recommend this nursery enough, it's such a pleasure to see our child in such a nurturing setting.

Kindred Huntingdon Nursery & Pre-school has provided great flexibility and care for my son since he started nursery in 2021. I think it is really important that my son benefits from the social interaction and opportunities for development in a nursery setting. Kindred face the same difficulties that
many nurseries face with the retention of staff. My son has not had a key worker attached to his journey for more than a few months at a time throughout his whole experience at nursery. This has had an impact, as my son has rarely enjoyed his nursery days and is often overwhelmed and doesn't want to go to nursery. The only time he has really flourished in nursery was when he was moved to a smaller room with more dedicated staff, who have sadly since moved on.

Fantastic nursery. We had a weird time with our son’s previous nursery with a lot of concerns, which is alarming for a relatively new parent, but not at Kindred. The staff are very accommodating and welcoming. Our son, with potential additional needs, is cared for above and beyond. I couldn’t recommend
the family-feel staff enough. Rates are very reasonable. Your child will thrive.

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 4.905 for Kindred Huntingdon Nursery and Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (163 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.905
  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 4.625 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kindred Huntingdon Nursery and Pre-school is based on 15 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 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 = 3.875
    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. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.75
  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.
