Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery and Pre-school

They put the children first, each child is treated as an individual and it’s like one big family. Our youngest has loved it there since day one just like our eldest did. They do so much with the children, they are always learning through play and activities. All the staff are fabulous, know the children so well and make parents feel very welcome. All the children go in smiling and come out with even bigger smiles. I'm sad that our time at Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery and Pre-school is ending in September when our youngest goes to school but for the last two and a half years they have been brilliant in helping our son learn, grow and become the person he is today. When it came to choosing a nursery for our youngest there was no choice it had to be Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery and Pre-school.

The nursery has a fantastic compliment of staff, my little boy has attended the setting since he was fifteen months old and has continued to grow into a confident clever little boy. He is very settled at the nursery which has aided his growth, development and social skills.

My son who is three goes to Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery and Pre-school in and he absolutely loves it! My son has a couple of medical conditions and the staff are amazing at managing and monitoring these as and when required! My child always bounces in, can’t wait to get there in the morning and always comes out with a massive smile! The staff are all so friendly and welcoming to both children and parents and have developed an excellent bond with my child. I wouldn’t want my child anywhere else and I would highly recommend Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery and Pre-school to anyone enquiring about childcare in the area!

Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery and Pre-school is a wonderful nursery. Since they have changed the way they play my son loves it, they have different rooms such as the discovery room and the adventures room, he can’t wait to tell me which one he’s been in. My son started a couple of years ago and has grown in a confident young man.

My little boy has been coming for a couple of months, after feeling anxious about sending him to nursery the staff put me at such ease. He loves coming and even waves me off at the door. I get lovely updates about his day in his diary, very pleased with Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery and Pre-school.

Our son is 10 months old and he started going to Kiddywinks Nursery at 7 months, he always comes home very content and seems happy in himself, the staff are all very friendly and ever so easy to get on with and when my son sees them he gives a smile. We are very pleased with the nursery and glad we chose it.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 8.5 months old, she is nearly 3.5 years old enjoying her preschool year in the same setting as her nursery! The staff are so caring and the approach is learning through play. Nothing too formal; very messy, dancing in the rain, lots of fun! My daughter loves it here. The videos recorded and posted on the Facebook page give parents such a warm feeling that their child is in the best hands. She has made some strong relationships with staff and children of different age groups. It has helped her grow to be a confident, independent little lady, ready for school next year. Just getting arrangements sorted for my second born to attend and hopefully love it just as much! Brilliant start in life!

Kiddywinks is a wonderful nursery with such a family feel! My little girl has been going to Kiddywinks since she was just over a year old, and she has come on leaps and bounds since attending! The nursery really believes in learning through exploratory play and that’s something I really believe in myself. It amazes me how much my little girl learns every day she goes to Kiddywinks! The staff are all wonderful and cannot do enough for your children and even yourself! I would 100% recommended Kiddywinks Nursery to everyone! It’s a safe, happy environment, like a home from home. Thank you girls!

Even after lockdown and the big break away from everyone, they were so considerate and allowed my son the time to get reacquainted (not that it took long).

It’s been 2 months nearly and we are loving Kiddywinks. Enrolling my son was the best decision we could have made, he is absolutely thriving. The staff are all wonderful and put me at ease within the first week and they keep me well informed and have my full trust. Although a strange time due to COVID, the building and environment seem wonderful, my son always comes out with a smile on his face. Would recommend highly. My son had just finished speech and language therapy when starting and since starting he’s come on leaps and bounds and is saying so many more words and I have no doubt this will only get better.

The manager and her team are lovely and are always thinking up new activities for the children to enjoy. I wouldn't send my child anywhere else.

Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery have been brilliant from day 1 of my daughter starting when she was very unsettled to now when she loves nursery! She seems to thrive within the nursery setting and loves spending time with her friends and the lovely 'kiddylinks'. I will be sad when her time ends there!

My son started in September and the staff have been great with him. He is slowly coming out of his shell. He has had his moments but absolutely loves it. They are always great at communicating what he has been up to and how he has been when I collect him at the end of the day. Can't recommend them enough.

Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery is a nice and tactile environment to encourage my daughter to be curious; in a well managed and relatively low-risk space. She just loves spending time there. She has no problem going in at drop off time; sometimes she doesn't even look back to see me leave, that’s how much she likes it!

Our baby girl started at Kiddywinks Neighbourhood Nursery in May 2019 and has had lots of fun and learnt so much more during her time there.

The nursery assigns one of their staff as a link to your child who explains everything that they have been doing and what things they have been doing with your child which is also written down in a diary so parents can read what activities their child has been up to.

Our little girl has got hearing difficulties and we have been communicating with her through the use of sign language/Makaton.

We have kept Kiddywinks up to date with everything that our daughter has been experiencing and Kiddywinks have been kind and gracious to help by supplying learning aids for our little girl while she is at nursery, encouraging her and others to learn new things.

The staff are always so kind and caring and enjoy passing on any experiences which they have encountered during the day with your child and will also explain any accomplishments and any mishaps.

We will all be sad when the twins go on to school in September.

I am so grateful that my daughter and soon to be both daughters attend Kiddywinks. I love everything about how they work! My daughter has come on leaps and bounds with her language and confidence as well as supporting us with toilet training and other routines. I love hearing what she has been up too. She talks about it from the minute she leaves up to bedtime and we're lucky to read about it in the daily diary and see photographs. I couldn't thank all the girls enough and can't wait for more adventures with them.

Highly recommended.

My son has enjoyed it from day one and loves the exciting things they do with the children on a daily basis, which includes various activities and trips out. Each child is given a kiddylink (one of the staff), that the child can go to if they need any help. They always keep you updated with what your child has done. All in all, I am very pleased with Kiddywinks and I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

I now have my third child at Kiddywinks. All are very happy in the setting and have made good friends. The staff are warm and very caring towards the children and will give them a cuddle if they are upset or hurt. The nursery is comfortable and homely which is great when your child is there for up to ten hours.

The activities are varied and often child-led, including lots of music and dance which my children love. Overall we have been very pleased with the standard of care provided.
