Kindred Long Buckby Nursery and Pre-School

We have been using Long Buckby nursery since 2021 for both of our children and have always been so impressed with the nursery and staff. The team work so hard to make each day exciting and different for the children, they create lots of events and special memories such as graduation ceremonies, Mothers/Fathers day stay and plays etc. They know the children so well and our children both have had a lovely experience of the nursery. Our eldest who left 1 yr ago still talks about fond memories that she has. I also always see the ladies cuddling and comforting the babies in the baby room which is very reassuring to know your little one will be comforted when they are there. We would absolutely recommend the nursery and only have great things to say about it. The staff in particular are such a credit to this nursery and make it a lovely environment!

My daughter started Clarecroft in January and both my partner and I were so nervous about the entire situation. However from the first minute where we handed her over and seeing how comfortable she felt we knew we made the right decision. The communication from staff is excellent, the parent portal is constantly updated and the growth in our daughter's development has been phenomenal. We have highly recommended the nursery to many other people as a kind, safe and caring environment.

The settling in sessions were organised quite late for us with not much notice and I found that quite stressful on top of starting work. We were also left off the weekly newsletter for a while so we didnt get as many updates as I would have liked initially but thats all been sorted super quickly

The ladies are very good communicating with the parents/carers... Always updating our child's progression via the app.

Fantastic nursery with staff that really care for the children. Everyone goes above and beyond, providing lovely experiences and activities for the children. My little boy always looks forward to his sessions. Highly recommend!

Great outside space, resources and care. The food menu is a winner with our little one too!

Clarecroft has been fantastic for our 1 year old. He loves his time there and the communication is excellent. He has come on such a lot in the 4 months he has been attending and the staff are so welcoming and professional.

Over the last 6 months, my son's confidence has grown massively. He's learning so much, has made lots of friends, and is genuinely thriving in their care.

A year ago, he was a little boy who cried every day at drop-off. Now he's happy, settled, and will be ready for school this September - the transformation has been amazing to see.

The ladies are all so lovely, caring, and helpful. We're so grateful for the support and encouragement they've given him. I couldn't recommend them highly enough!

A fantastic nursery with excellent communication, facilities and experiences for young children. My daughter is supported in all areas of her development, and is thriving under the care and support of Clarecroft. Recently transitioned to a new room, we have felt supported and that our daughter was known and felt comfortable in her new room.

Amazing nursery.. my child is 4 and he has SEN needs, I couldn't ask for a better nursery for my child. Everything with this nursery is tip top and I cannot fault them. They have everything in place for my son regarding his special needs and I don't have to worry about certain things in place as it's always been 100% with Clarecroft.

Really lovely nursery, staff are always so attentive and understanding. My child loves attending five days a week, there are always new activities planned for them and as much outdoor time as they want.

We feel so lucky to have found Clarecroft. Knowing our child is safe, happy, and thriving there gives us real peace of mind.

Honestly I dont know where to start, the staff are absolutely amazing, my children always look forward to going to clarecroft and at the end of the day I have to pull them away from there. We are going to miss coming.

Clarecroft is a wonderful nursery and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to any parent looking for a nursery for their child. The staff are all extremely kind and caring and put so much effort into planning the provision that the children access. They make the days fun and provide the children with such lovely experiences in all of the 3 rooms. Both my daughter and son attended Clarecroft from just before 1 years old through to the end of preschool (which my son has just finished). Both my children were really well prepared for school and given such a great start in the Early years foundation stage. Clarecroft share photos regularly on their parent portal, which is really lovely and reassuring. They also cook fresh meals on site which are well balanced and my children thoroughly enjoyed. My son in particular loves being outside & all 3 rooms have great outdoor areas which can be accessed rain or shine. I can't recommend Clarecroft enough! It's a such a happy, caring & nurturing place.

All in all a fabulous nursery that I'm happy to recommend!

I would like abit more communication about the transition to preschool.

My children have attended since 2019 and I couldn't have hoped for a better start in life for them.

We feel our daughter is well cared for, her early education is in great hands and when she comes home full of enthusiastic conversation about her day, we know Clarecroft was the right choice.

Clarecroft is a fantastic nursery that has provided my daughter with a safe and supportive environment to play and learn in, for the last 3.5yrs.

Updates on the parent portal are regular and informative, the meals provided are well balanced but most importantly, the care provided is unmatched.

Would always recommend Clarecroft to parents looking for a home from home environment for their child.

I have had a wonderful experience with Clarecroft . The staff are warm, professional, and truly dedicated to each child's growth. My son has some special needs, and I've been incredibly impressed by the care, understanding, and individualised support he's received.

The teachers have gone above and beyond to create a positive, inclusive environment where he feels safe, confident, and excited to learn. Communication with me has been excellent, and it's clear the team is both skilled and professional.
