My little girl has been at Kiddi Caru for over a year now, starting at 9 months old and having just turned 2, she's now in her third room change and has thoroughly enjoyed each. Communication at handovers is always detailed and the app keeps parents informed throughout the day. Accident forms and illness updates are prompt with well trained staff able to manage situations as they change and general updates on childhood illnesses, including advice and guidance is clear and timely. My child loves going to nursery and having just started in the 2+ age group, has continued to thrive and develop not only within herself, but with her relationships with her key workers and other children. Second child has not long been born and we are already enrolling him in prep for another fantastic journey.

Friendly staff, engaging and varied developmental activities for the kids, nice blend of play time and down time!
When my son is excited to go to nursery and is enthusiastic about telling what he's been doing today, I consider that a win!
The food menu may seem a little 'exotic' than it needs to be at times, but I understand and appreciate the effort in expanding and varying the menu whilst providing meals with a higher nutritional value - but maybe fish fingers and beans every now and then isn't a bad thing!
More importantly, we have really appreciated the support of key staff members over the last few years whilst navigating a number of personal challenges for our family.
Would I recommend? Yeah, absolutely!

We viewed other nurseries in Taunton ahead of deciding to sign up child no 2 and none we saw even closely compared to the facilities at Kiddi Caru. It is clean, well maintained, they have a huge garden and outdoor space, guinea pigs! And the curriculum includes yoga, forest school and more.
When I have needed to raise any concerns over the years management have been responsive and understanding.
Only reason its not excellent is there seems to be a high staff turnover and occasionally this impacts on drop offs if numbers are not to legal ratio due to sickness (which can't be helped so its a difficult one for working parents who are compassionate to the challenges!)
The staff are very friendly and im lucky my child's current key workers and close adults are A* couldn't thank them more.
I think the fact im happy to send my second speaks for itself.

My little girt has settled in beautifully thanks to the lovely ladies taking care of her. I can tell she enjoys herself so much there, just by how happy she is at the end of the day. I feel assured that all her needs have been met

Kiddi Caru is a lovely nursery. My daughter thoroughly enjoys going here and enjoys telling us about her day and what she has been up to. I do like the app the nursery uses to keep you up to date with your child's daily movements. Staff are friendly and very helpful.

As a mother this nursery is everything I could have asked for. My daughter had some health problems and the nursery are fantastic in listening and ensuring she is looked after. The staff in apple room is excellent, always have a smile and update you when needed. Any questions or worries I have, I am always reassured and listened to as a mother. Since my child has started her development has improved so much and couldn't be prouder. I couldn't have a bad word to say about the nursery. My child key worker is a staff member in apple and honesty wouldn't want anyone else to look after my child. She always listens to my concerns and keeps me in the loop with my child's day.

My child has wonderful bonds with his key workers and really enjoys their days at nursery.
I always get detailed hand overs of what they have been doing and notified straight away of any concerns, incidents or unusual behaviour.
As a first time Mum, when I've asked for advice on helping correct behaviour such as biting, staff have always been helpful and very knowledgeable.
They give great observations through their app, it does take a month or so to come through but that is due to the app and it being approved by head office and can't be helped.
Their weeks are full of fun activities and I have seen my child develop great communication and interest in others at their time in nursery.
Couldn't be happier.

My child has been handed back to me on several times for pick up with a soiled nappy, she has had discharge from her ear before that has been missed.
Reports of bumps and knocks with no one ever witnessing how it happened.
It’s short staffed so the ratio is something like 10 kids to 1 key worker so no wonder the level of care is bad.
I was told my child shows no sign of using the potty yet she’s always on the potty at home and in the other nursery she goes to. The list is endless which is why I am in the process of moving my child from this nursery.

So pleased with Kiddi Caru. My little girl started at 10 months in the baby room and has now moved into a room for 1-2s. She loves nursery and picks her bag up at home and says ‘bye bye’. The girls in the Blackberry room as amazing! I get pictures of their activities all the time including mud painting, riding on a trike outside and role play with babies! We couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery and would strongly recommend!

My son has absolutely thrived since being at Kiddi Caru. He has come on leaps and bounds in all areas and I truly believe Kiddi Caru has played a big part in this. Nothing is ever too much trouble and the nursery keeps me well updated with what my son is doing and how he is throughout the day, I...

It wasn't until August 2022, when my second daughter was born, that I truly saw how exceptional this place is. She was born with a rare condition that resulted in us being in and out of hospital and complex surgery. The support we got from staff was mind blowing. They were sensitive to our situation and its impact on my eldest and always show a genuine interest in how we're doing. They even helped us fundraise for our daughter's surgery at the summer fete!
My second daughter has now started, with her additional needs. The staff have gone so far beyond my expectations to help her settle in. One staff member in particular has repeatedly demonstrated great initiative and has a brilliant handle on her feeding already. She proactively contacts me to benefit my daughter with her development and growth. The chef has been so accommodating to my and her changing needs.
Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It's lovely to hear that our team have been so attentive and supportive with you and your family! We take the time to ensure our teams are full of dedicated, passionate practitioners who go above and beyond to help children thrive.
