Bright Horizons Maidstone Turkey Mill Day Nursery and Preschool

Since my two children started at Turkey Mill, they have settled in really well and even ask when they are going to nursery.

My children love going there.

I have a baby and a preschooler and I can notice how they developed there.

Every day they learn something new and come back home so excited to show and tell everything.

The staff are very professional, helpful and take good care of the kids.

My Son has been attending this nursery for just over a year (started at 9 months old) and he really loves it there. He has built a strong bond with his key workers and I love hearing about the fun day he has had when I read through his contact book. The staff at the nursery ensured that my son had enough settling in periods to adjust to his new surroundings and kept me updated with how he was progressing during this early transition period.

My husband and I have found the nursery staff to be very open and love to involve parents by either inviting them in for special occasions, having detailed handover talks at the beginning and the end of the day, and also parents are encouraged to add to their child's learning journal with special events/trips and observations of key milestones at home. It has been lovely to look through my son's book and seeing how he has grown up both at home and nursery!

The food at the nursery is loved by my son too!

This is a fantastic nursery!

I have always been extremely pleased with the care and dedication showed by the staff and subsequently my daughter's excitement to go there each day. I would have no hesitation in recommending the nursery to others. Any minor issues I have ever had have been dealt with swiftly and I have every confidence in their ability to keep my child safe and happy.

The best nursery ever, such a relaxed and welcoming place. The staff are so helpful and they are so competent in their various roles. Brilliant menu and various play activities. My children love it and they have made new friends and have learnt so much. It's home away from home, my daughter says Thank you Maidstone Team.

My son joined the nursery aged 2 and he immediately had a connection with his key person. She was there to settle him and kept me reassured. She made an extra effort to encourage him into the room and to join in activities before I left him. The room is always set out with inviting activities when he arrives and he is now happy to be welcomed by all staff and settles easily even if his key person is not there. My son always enjoys his time at nursery and tells me about the activities he has done. I am kept up to date with his progress through the records that they keep. I love hearing about what he has done and the progress he is making. The management are very helpful and are always on hand to answer any questions.

My son started nursery in April 2016 when he was 1 years old and we love it! So far, we have been in two rooms: babies and growing explorers. It took a bit more time for him to settle as English is not his first language, but I could see the support all the way through. The staff are very friendly all the time, very open minded and supportive, it's clear they enjoy their job as well. There are lots of activities every day and, importantly, time outside. I really like the fact that every child's routine and development are considered individually and flexibility of schedule. It's a bit far from where we live, but that's the only bit inconvenient and obviously our own choice. Excellent nursery!

I would highly recommend Kidsunlimited. If you are looking for a nursery in Maidstone - this is by far the best!!

I highly recommend this nursery.

I have two children attending the nursery and my daughter has attended for 2.5 years now and I couldn't rate it highly enough. The staff are fantastic and I feel hugely confident that my children are always well cared for. They always participate in a range of activities which they both thoroughly enjoy.

As a parent I find this very frustrating because the setting is ideal for children to learn and develop but it is very disappointing the passion that used to flow within KU amongst all staff, is gone.

My daughter joined this nursery in November 2015 in the baby room. I'm really pleased with the nursery and had previously heard it was very good. The girls are always friendly and welcoming. My daughter loves going here. Would highly recommend.

In nursery key persons always have been very supportive, specially when my little girl moved into the next room. She did have a very good contact with the new key person. I really liked training process, we didn't have any problems change the room and to be between other people. If there was a problem I could talk to a person and problems quickly sorted out, problem was about nappy cream and speaking. After a few days my little girl started pointing and naming words and counting up to 5. The key person has done an amazing job, working with my little girl in small groups. We love the nursery because of lots of time spent outside in garden.

My daughter has been going for almost 2 and a half years and loves every day she's there. All the staff are friendly, professional and nurturing.

I have worked and had my son at nursery since he was 5 months old. I feel the staff are very good at helping the childrens development. I am very happy with the level of care, my child has been shown. I do feel we need more resources in the rooms as well as for the outside area.

Reception desk staffed most of the time - staff here are very approachable and friendly. My 15 month old daughter has been attending since the age of five months and loves it here. It is a very stimulating environment with a well stocked outdoor area that she loves. She is a very demanding child so this environment suits her very well. Her key worker is fantastic and has given me useful tips to manage challenging behaviour. The menus are varied and tasty. I'm very happy with this nursery - it compares very favourably with the nursery my eldest daughter attended which was also very good (although this is my favourite).

Only downside is that it is expensive and there could be more flexibility re swapping my child's dates over to attend as my employment requires a degree of flexibility with when I may need child care.

I am so pleased to be able to take my daughter to such a fantastic nursery. The facilities, location and staff are all superb. I cannot praise the carers highly enough. They have such warm, friendly personalities. My daughter has a very strong bond with 2 particular ladies in her classroom. They totally "get her" and her little quirky personality. Would be hard pushed to find somewhere half as good!
