The staff are always friendly and very helpful. They make great bonds with the children which is very comforting for parents. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds and never complains about going. She loves it.
Fantastic food, lovely staff. Wonderful outside play area. Children have made some great friends too. Could not have wished for a better nursery.
Our daughter loves the nursery. The staff are great with the kids. The extra activities such as French and yoga are fantastic. No complaints. We would thoroughly recommend the nursery.
This is an excellent nursery. From the first visit, we thought this was a great place. Lovely conditions and the staff is very caring. It's not easy to leave your children with someone but knowing that they are well looked after and stimulated and having fun it's so reassuring.
She’s doing really well with her words and numbers.
Amazing. Have been sending my 3 children to Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Torquay over the last 7 years and have nothing but praise for every moment. On leaving they have been ahead of expected standards on entering reception class. Would not hesitate to recommend them.
After doing lots of research I decided Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Torquay was the only place I wanted my children to go. It outshines in my option all other local nurseries, leaving your children is hard but I feel safe in the knowledge that they are there, safe and happy.
Have used for both children, they have really loved their time there, the staff are wonderful, the facilities modern and bright, lots of extra activities such as yoga, baking, French, sing and sign. Also great outdoor space. I can't praise it enough.
I can not recommend this nursery enough. Every mother struggles to let their child go into the hands of strangers but I have never felt more relaxed and comfortable. Every mother always thinks their needs and requirements are most important - whereas everyone’s are just as important and they have catered to every need or want I have ever put on them and for that I thank them.
My daughter really enjoys her time at nursery. I would highly recommend their service as I cannot fault it. The staff are brilliant and very helpful and caring.
My son is due to go to school in September and feel that they have helped him massively become the confident and sociable little boy he is. Being that he is an August child, my concerns about him being the youngest have gone completely thanks to the staff that have helped him through his milestones.
Can't even think of a nursery nearby that I would recommend better really!
My son will definitely miss it there in September!
My son is in the 0-1 group and absolutely loves attending his one day a week. The staff I have met in that room are lovely and really make me feel at ease knowing my son is well cared for.
My children have been attending Kiddi Caru since 8 months old and they are now getting ready to leave to start school. I couldn’t recommend the nursery enough they have been brilliant. The children love the staff it is a very friendly and inviting nursery. The education they have received to get them ready for school has helped massively as they are all above where they should be on the development scale this is all due to the effort of the staff
Fantastic nursery. Attentive, caring staff, facilities always spotless, a massive garden which is kept so well maintained! I wouldn't send my son anywhere else. Each day my son comes home happy and I know he has been well cared for. Lovely variety of healthy meals provided, parking just outside the nursery doors. I could go on! 10/10 for us!
Fantastic all round nursery, our son is extremely happy and loves to go in every day. There are great opportunities for learning and development and he has come on leaps and bounds since starting there. The staff are friendly and welcoming and are genuinely pleased to answer questions, great and say goodbye to us. The classrooms are well designed, light and airy with lots of different activities laid out for when we arrive.
The outside area is fantastic and the children are well supervised while exploring and developing their skills. There are lots of things to develop fine and gross motor skills and preparing them for later schooling. We are so happy with everything here and how the staff have dealt with all aspects of our sons learning, development, care and interacting with him.
My son has been doing very well since going to Kiddi Caru but I feel there has been a few issues that I have not been happy with and the nursery needs to work on getting these correct.
Also basing this on recent weather conditions where all schools locally have closed but Kiddi Caru have been advised to stay open which I feel is bad. They don’t expect primary or secondary schools to open but expect toddlers and babies to make their way in even though weather reports say stay in doors and then charge us still for it.
Thank you for your review and we are so glad to hear that your son is thriving whilst attending our nursery. With regards to the recent adverse weather, we are fortunate enough to be able to stay open due to the dedication of our staff teams which allows us to offer our families a childcare service...
The nursery meets most of my expectations and I believe it is one of the best nurseries around. All the members of staff that I know are caring people and very friendly, my daughter likes them which says a lot. I do think however they could improve on cleanliness (toilets, toys) and maybe invest some money in new toys, equipment etc.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review us and for your kind words about our nursery. We are always reinvesting to ensure that our nurseries are fully resourced to provide the best play and education for the children and the cleanliness/hygiene of the nursery is a top priority. If you do...
We have been going to Kiddi Caru with our daughter since 2012 and our son is now there full time. Both children have been very happy there, we've never had a problem with them wanting to attend and they are clearly loved and looked after. The activities provided are great, my daughter learnt to say all her colours in French before she was 4, all down to Kiddi Caru. She has settled into primary school very well and I am sure in part this is due to a good grounding at the nursery. Our son asks to go on a weekend! Highly recommended.
My son loves it!He is so happy and independent
His learning abilities become really well. All the staff are really friendly,kind and you can see they are really care of how is growing your child every day. He has a lots of activities every day.The food is varied.
I know that I made the right decision for me and my baby boy!
Both my children have attended kiddi Caru and I have always been very happy with the standard of care and how happy my children are there.
I have recommended it several times and close friends and family who also use this nursery.
More feedback about activities is the only thing I would like more of. Something like tapestry they use in primary school (photos and description of learning) would be good.
