The staff are great and our son loves the nursery, especially the new outdoor play area. I really like that the children are in rooms by 6month age groups so he can learn and develop with his close peers.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter has been going to this nursery since she was 10 months old (now 3 and a half years old). We have been extremely impressed by the caring and proactive approach from all members of staff and our daughter has been very happy going to nursery. She has flourished in a friendly, fun, safe and
stimulating environment enabling her to learn and develop. The central location, opening times and ease of parking are also very helpful when trying to balance working and child care.

Our daughter has been at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Market Harborough from the age of 9 months.
We are extremely happy with all aspects of the nursery throughout her time. In particular, we have confidence in the nursery nurses which we feel provide a high level of care.
Very happy parents :)

Review from Tanya (Mother of Child) published on 25 July 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I couldn’t be happier with the progress my son has made since he began attending Kiddi Caru. He has come on leaps and bounds with his overall education and knowledge and also with his personal growth and confidence. He always leaves the nursery with a smile on his face eager to tell me all about his
day, the activities he’s engaged in, the things he’s learnt and the food he’s had at meal times. I feel there is a real emphasis in the nursery on forming strong friendships and taking a genuine interest in those around you and I am touched by how close my son is with his peers - something I was personally concerned about prior to him starting.
The nursery itself has a very warm and energetic feel with a constant buzz of busy, happy children.
I viewed a number of nurseries on the run up to my son starting and Kiddi Caru was an easy decision.

We couldn't be happier with the nursery. All the members of staff are enthusiastic and friendly, and both our boys clearly love going. The only (very minor) criticism I can think of it is that they both much preferred the menus before the change to Kiddi Caru.

My little one has been at Kiddi Caru in Market Harborough since he was 11 months old (and is now nearly 18 months). The staff have always been so attentive, kind and loving towards my little boy. As a nursery, they are organised and keep you informed as a parent and their resources and activity selections
for the children are play based and always seem to be engaging and enjoyed by the children. As fickle as toddlers are on the eating front, this doesn't seem to phase the staff and he often eats better at nursery than at home!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.544)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.544) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Market Harborough is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 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 4.844 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Market Harborough is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 167 Ratings = 4.844
  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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Market Harborough is based on 14 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. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.7
  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.
