Dundee Nature Kindergarten Reviews (157)
Dundee Nature Kindergarten has a Review Score of 8.4 (8.378) out of 10, based on 3 reviews in the last 2 years.
Over all time Dundee Nature Kindergarten has 157 reviews.
The rooms are well kept, lots of toys and the outside space is second to none. I love that there is the wood area as well, which can only stimulate their imagination. My daughter always kicks up a wee fuss on a Monday morning about going in within ten minutes, she is settled, and when she is picked up, she doesn't want to leave!
Highly recommend!
All the best,
The Thrive Team.
I was so nervous about my daughter starting nursery last year but from the very first visit she was so happy and so was I. The staff are honestly so lovely and always show interest in her development. The environment is just perfect for her to play, grow and be safe, with lots of ways for her to develop her physical and mental skills. She loves the outdoor area and never wants to leave when I pick her up if she's outside playing at the time. She sometimes tries to sneak toys home as they have so many and they let her bring books home for us to enjoy. It's been so nice watching her make new friends in the nursery as well. I'm so glad this is the nursery we chose. I highly recommend Dundee Nature Kindergarten. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and all they have done for my daughter.
Thank you so much for your lovely review of our nursery. We are so delighted to hear that you feel our team is a fantastic support to your daughter and you from settling to happy days at nursery. We're so glad that she loves the resources we have so much and has made lots of friends! We are lucky...
The staff are just amazing, having worked in education myself for many years, I’ve never seen and felt so much care and kindness for children in their care.
I would highly recommend this nursery to others who value education from a young age. They go over and above on a daily basis.
We are so delighted to hear that your son has been with us for most of his little life and he's really grown into himself over this time! Our fantastic team here really does make the nursery experience. We hope that your little one continues to learn and thrive with us until it's time for school!
My son has been in the nursery for two years now and he likes it. I can say I was a bit worried in the beginning but the staff are amazing and they showed me so many times how caring for the kids they are and my fear just disappeared seeing my son happy coming back from nursery. The manager is always looking for everything to be smooth and not to have accidents. I had spoken to many mums in different nurseries and I can see the difference in the attitude with the kids and I know I made the right choice of nursery for my child.
We are so delighted to hear that your son has been with us for a wee while and loves it still. We're glad he settled in well, meaning you did too and you are reassured your choice was the right one! We hope that your little one continues to learn and thrive with us for years to come!
I find this nursery to be exceptional in their level of understanding and commitment to the children in their care, the setup they have seems very geared to allowing children to play safely but still allow them to be children and have proper fun outside and with toys, generally allowing them still to be well-rounded kids, getting messy and running around. I'm so pleased to have moved my child here and would not even consider anywhere else now.
Thank you so much for this glowing review! We take so much pride in allowing children to experience the world their own way and have great fun while doing so!
Highly recommend this nursery, this is my second child to attend the nursery and we have had such great experiences for both our children. Can’t fault the nursery or the staff in any way! Our kids have always been so excited to go. Fine-stars.
Thank you so much for reviewing us! We're glad to hear that you have chosen to join us again with your second child after such a great experience!
Dundee Nature Kindergarten is a great nursery. The staff are all really approachable and invested in my son’s development. My little boy has been at the nursery for almost three years and has had a very good experience in all the rooms he has been a member of. The outdoor facilities are a firm favourite of my son’s and he comes home happy everyday.
Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We are so glad that your son is thriving with us and having such great experiences!
The nursery is amazing, my daughter has started off in the baby room and it is such a nice, large, room full of educational toys and the garden is great too. The staff pay very close attention to the kids and I know she is really well looked after. The app is great for updates regarding her sleep, meals and nappies so I have no worries. She has a milk allergy but I find the food variety so good and inclusive so this has not been a problem at all for us, thankfully. She is always so happy to be dropped off, I know she has a great bond with the staff who work hard to ensure this. I’m so happy I chose this nursery!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review! We are so glad to hear that your daughter is having such a fantastic time with us!
We highly recommend Dundee Nature Kindergarten. Having relocated to Dundee with a toddler, who required a lot of settling in and reassurances, the staff at the nursery have always been encouraging, welcoming and supportive of her. Communication is clear and timely and my daughter is full of positivity and kind words about her key workers the end of the day!
Thank you so much for taking the time to review us! We pride ourselves on our communication and support with families so we are glad to hear you have benefitted from this. It is superb to hear what great relationships your daughter is building too!
The staff are very engaging and helpful.
We are so delighted to hear that you were warmly welcomed to join us and you and your son enjoy your experience with us while he grows and develops, especially his love for Blaze our tortoise! We hope that your little one continues to learn and thrive with us for years to come!
Have been taking my child to Dundee Nature Kindergarten for two years now and could not be happier with the services provided. Staff are professional and friendly and take a clear interest in the children in their care. All of the staff know the children by name and are aware of the needs and interests of the children they work with. I have always felt comfortable leaving my son in their care and he is always happy to see the staff when he arrives. He is very comfortable with all of the staff and has grown in confidence since starting. I cannot fault the management and staff at Dundee Nature Kindergarten as they are very well organised, have fantastic communication with parents and provide an excellent range of learning experiences for the children. Have recommended it to multiple friends who have had children since we started with Dundee Nature Kindergarten!
We are so delighted to hear that your last two years with us have been so highly regarded! It's so rewarding for us to know that little one is growing their confidence and developing over their time at our nursery with our fantastic team....
Dundee Nature Kindergarten is a fantastic nursery. The care, attention and all-around management are second to none. It is extremely well run by two excellent managers along with senior staff and it shows, the children are very happy there, they play outside as much as they can and are very well looked after. I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.
Thank you so much for your lovely review of our nursery. We're so delighted to hear that you highly regard our fantastic team and the little one's experiences here including your own. We hope that your little one continues to learn and thrive with us for years to come!
My child has been part of Dundee Nature Kindergarten for the past four years. My baby will be joining this year too. This nursery has the best staff, caring, genuine, involved and makes you feel at ease. I never have to worry as I know they are in the best hands.

I couldn't recommend them enough!

The staff are great at updating parents on how the day has been and the app to keep up to date with their day is great.
Thank you so much for your lovely review of our nursery. So delighted that you highly regard our communication and your little girl enjoys nature as much as we do! We hope that your little one continues to learn and thrive with us for years to come.
My daughter has been attending this nursery for over a year and a half and my experience has been nothing but positive with Thrive Childcare and Education and all the staff at the nursery. Communication from both staff and management is excellent, they continue to keep me updated and I feel that they really care for all the children they look after. My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 9 months old and therefore has been moved to different rooms based on her age. Each room has been great in keeping us updated, including us in her learning as well as helping develop her own skill set which has come on leaps and bounds. The staff are also very helpful with any queries and nothing is too much for them. I would highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you so much for your lovely review of our nursery. So delighted to hear that you've had a fantastic experience with us and our fantastic nursery team too! We are so happy you and your daughter have had the best possible experience over the last year and a half and we hope that your little one continues to learn and thrive with us for years to come!
Nature Kindergarten is a fantastic nursery. The management team and staff have been great and always show genuine care and interest in my little girl’s development and well-being. She loves the outdoor space and has built great relationships with staff and other children over the last year and a half. I am more than happy with the variety of meals and snacks on offer. I have no concerns or regrets with our choice of nursery and I feel completely at ease knowing she’s at Nature Kindergarten when I am at work.
We are so delighted to hear that you feel at ease knowing your daughter is happy and enjoying her time with other little ones and our team. We hope that your little one continues to learn and thrive with us for years to come!
