Review from Odette G (Mother of Child) published on 29 August 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son has been at Rushden Kids Club Ltd since he was 9 months old and has not once complained about being bored or mistreated, he is well looked after and has made a lot of friends. He has been supported through all of his stages of potty training, aggression, understanding of right and wrong and that's all I can ask for. Very happy.

Review from S A (Mother of Child) published on 25 July 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Since my son has been at this nursery he has had 4 key workers, as he has delayed speech -

this really didn't help him having to get to know new staff. I understand that sometimes the turn around of staff is high but surely this is not great for some children that need extra help. Other than this, I am really happy with everything.

Reply from Natasha Wain, Manager at Blossoms Day Nursery and The Hive
The change in key people is not a practice that we advocate but during the development of the staff team, it has been unavoidable.

The nursery has the luxury of an inclusion officer who works with children with additional needs who plans and supports the children and families in our care.

Review from A C (Mother of Child) published on 25 July 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter has attended Kids Club since she was 2, she is now leaving to start school. My daughter loved being in the 2's room and settled quickly. The staff were attentive and engaging. She struggled when starting preschool though and did not want to go.

Most of the staff are helpful and caring. However, communication has been bad, my daughter's key worker has changed twice, and both times I was not told. The preschool is big and for a shy child, I feel this has been a bit overwhelming for my daughter, but that is personal preference.

There has been a lot of staff leaving/shuffling and I feel they need to all get on the same page to have stability for the children.

Reply from Natasha Wain, Manager at Blossoms Day Nursery and The Hive

Under new management, the team have been working extremely hard on improving transitions for children. The new procedure involves children moving through to their new room on visits with their key person and buddies. They will have a number of visits until they feel safe, secure and confident about...

Review from J B (Grandmother of Child) published on 25 July 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have found my two grandchildren very happy and settled on collection. They have had a fun time at Kids Club and the staff are accommodating. My only concern is three-year-olds are put in the under twos room (educational needs not being met).

Reply from Natasha Wain, Manager at Blossoms Day Nursery and The Hive

At no point are three years olds put into the under twos room. Children under two occupy the upstairs baby room and will come down at the end of the day ready for collection at 6 pm. All children are planned for on an individual basis according to their needs, stage of development and interests.

Review from Georgina M (Mother of Child) published on 25 July 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My child has attended Kids Club from 6 months of age. I was recommended by several parents. I always felt listened to and happy with the service and cost.

Recently, however, there was a lack of communication and warning of price increases due to the Ofsted inspection of inadequate. However, as a result, parents suffered and this has caused a lot of unnecessary anxiety which has unfortunately impacted on the children - which is not what Ofsted set out to do.

Reply from Natasha Wain, Manager at Blossoms Day Nursery and The Hive

As with all nurseries, fees are reviewed annually and this was communicated with parents via letter giving one months notice. Parental feedback was considered and as a good will gesture for existing parents the current fee for pre school children attending holiday club was held at the current rate.

My daughter loves coming to Kids Club. She always settled in both 2's rooms and in pre school, even when off for being poorly. She comes back with no problems, can't fault anything.

Overall Experience

My daughter has had a fantastic first year at Kids Club Ltd. She has enjoyed going since day one and due to the fun, friendly environment loves attending every day. The staff are fantastic, I know there have been some big changes at the nursery this year. But they have always put the children first and make sure each day is as fun filled as the last. My daughter has learnt a lot through play here and is looking forward to returning in September for her last year before starting school.
