RAFAKidz Cranwell

I can't fault Cranwell RafaKidz. The staff are brilliant and clearly really care about the children and their development. There always feels like there's a restlessness and desire to apply new thinking, try new activities, adopt more training, offer additional activities and shake up the way the rooms function. All of this, plus brilliant communication and care, is what makes RafaKidz really stand out. Couldn't recommend them enough.

I highly recommend this Nursery. The facilities are well maintained and allow for great activities and exploration for the children. The staff are always on hand for advice and give a thorough run down of the day at pick up.

A genuinely great nursery setting that our girls love going to daily. Staff are friendly and understanding, and educational development appears good within setting. Some of the recent policy changes regarding child illness & allergy measures appear overly restrictive and have had an impact as a working family with little support nearby. Seems strange that the nursery continue to invoice for bank holidays despite the nursery being closed on these days.

Excellent Nursery. Staff members are competent, caring and friendly. Our child loves going and has developed strong relationship with other children, is building social skills and gets involved with lots of different activities.

We're so grateful to the entire team for making this transition smooth and for offering our son such a high standard of care. We couldn't be more pleased and HIGHLY recommend RAFA Kidz Cranwell to any parent seeking top-notch childcare.

Thank you!

Thank you so much for everything you do.

The place setting offers plenty of experiences for the children, through see learn and playing. Food options continue to adapt to feedback, offering a broad selection that caters for all.

We cannot recommend this nursery enough.

RAFA Kidz is outstanding. The outdoor space is a safe space for exploration, the activities are diverse and engaging, and the staff are exceptional. My children have both thrived in the positive learning environment they have created. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent seeking top-notch care and education for their little ones.

I can't fault anything with this nursery as a choice for my daughter.

A wonderful nursery where the children are encouraged and supported to help with their development. The care given by the staff is of a very high standard and I would not hesitate to recommend RAFA Kidz.

Really a fantastic nursery with incredible staff. My child has come on so much since joining. I will always be grateful for their care and work. Every day there is always something exciting and educational.

I cannot fault the nursery at all. I have 2 children attending this nursery and the care, support and guidance they are given on a daily basis is just fantastic! Both my children have developed so much because of what the amazing team do and the opportunities available to them every day! Thank you so much!

My child has been here for approximately 3 months now and as a first time mum, I was very nervous about him starting nursery but our experience has been fantastic. He thoroughly enjoys every day he is at nursery, the staff are amazing, caring and attentive and keep me up to date with everything that goes on. He is always doing different activities every day and gets to go out and about to explore. Thank you to all the staff for doing an amazing job and putting all my worries at ease.

Our daughter has been attending RAFA Kidz Cranwell for the last 7 months and we absolutely love it. The team works incredibly hard to provide a caring, fun and engaging environment. There are always interesting and stimulating activities happening and the team really supports our daughter's learning/development (with kindness and professionalism). We highly recommend it.

The nursery is a very welcoming environment, that is absolutely child centred. I have seen first hand how they provide tailored support to the children to meet their needs. The key carer to my children have all been super kind, focused and available as a familiar grown-up for my children to feel secure with. I'm so proud of how my children have grown into independent little people over the last few years and I can't thank the staff enough for their role in that.

We put our son into this nursery when he was 7 months old then swapped him out to send him to a childminders (mostly down to financial reasons). We pulled him out of the childminders after a month and half to put him back into RAFA Kidz Cranwell. This was the easiest decision we ever made. I think this speaks volumes. Our son loves it here and more so it gives us peace of mind that he's happy and having fun in a safe place. The app to track his day is also of a great reassurance to us, especially when his dad has to go away with work. He can stay in the loop. Our son quite often comes back tired and dirty from nursery and we wouldn't have it any other way. He's just enjoying life being a toddler and it's really nice that he has a place where he feels settled to be able to do that. We'd recommend RAFA Kidz Cranwell to anyone. In particular, Cranwell. Price hikes per year are a bit hard to swallow but I would say that's about the only real negative.

Such a wonderful nursery, with staff who really care for each child there. My girl absolutely loves going there, and the setting is brilliant, with loads of outdoor space. Massive variety of activities each week. The staff retention rate seems very high too, which probably says it all - the staff are happy working there, and it flows through the whole place. My child is thriving there, all thanks to the practitioners and their skill and love.

I have two children using RAFA Kidz Cranwell (Butterflies/Grasshoppers). I have been so impressed with the fantastic staff, the structured activities, the facilities and the communications with parents. The staff are all so experienced and caring. I always feel reassured that the kids are in safe hands. The opening hours are ideal to allow for flexibility with the busy working day. And the system of bussing the kids to and from primary school on either side of wraparound care is absolutely amazing! Thank you so much!
