Review from Amanda T (Mother of Child) published on 10 February 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little boy started in January and I was a little nervous as he's a very quiet little boy and likes being around people he knows. The wonderful staff, especially a staff member in the bright stars room, have made the transition so easy. We've never had any tears and he loves his nursery mornings.
The room is bright and engaging and I can already tell that he is learning new things everyday in preparation of big school.

Thank you Kinderhaven xx

Overall Experience

Fantastic nursery and lovely friendly staff, welcomed with open arms. Nursery is well presented and has had a lot of effort put into it. Brilliant security, not seen many nurseries like this. You can speak to the staff at any time. My daughter didn't settle that brilliant at the beginning due to being a little ill and I spoke to the manager in charge, she reassured me and she soon settled well. Definitely recommended.

Review from Heather P (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son has been attending nursery since it opened. The staff have made him feel comfortable and cared for right from the start. he has been able to take things at his own pace, moving rooms over a period of time and getting a new keyworker based on who he develops a relationship with. The nursery are also very responsive when parents want to check on progress either over the phone or on the screen in the parents room.

Review from Natasha T (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
At Kinder Haven Horsforth the staff and managers are outstanding, and exceed all expectations of what childcare is all about. Our son received the highest standard of care and attention and I feel his needs are met each day.
He has thrived under the professional guidance of the staff, his confidence has grown and his communication has improved. He eats a healthy selection of meals and all of it too! Everything seems to run smoothly in Horsforth, the environment and premises are clean and engaging with lots of space indoors and out with plenty of activities and games to help him learn.

The staff and managers are calm and attentive and always have time for you and your child. I would always recommend this nursery as I already have to friends and family and am happy too.

Review from Laura K (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
The nursery is new so all equipment and toys are modern and clean. The nursery provides very comfortable accommodation for our 10 month old. The staff give great feedback and communication is strong. I feel really informed about what our child does each day and how they develop and learn. The staff have really encouraged our child to be independent and also sociable with other children. I really can see the evidence of his learning at home, which is great and testament to the staff's skills and environment. I feel really confident that our child is happy and supported which is a must!

Indoors is fab but the outside play area is something else! They've thought of everything and have lots of themed areas for the children to learn and be creative. There are always lots of activities which are varied and sound great fun. It is also reassuring that both the manager and deputy know us and our child and can tell us much about his day as the key worker can. Shows great team work.

Overall Experience

I went to see a number of nurseries in the area and Kinder Haven stood out lead and shoulders above the rest. They offer a great menu, varied daily activity, an outstanding outdoor area and amazing staff! I have experienced 5 different nurseries and this is by far the best. I feel that my son is well looked after and safe. Which is important with the job I have, I need to feel that peace of mind. Love, love, love this nursery and the team.

Review from Emma W (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

This nursery is by far the best I've been to, having taken my son out of his previous one. I found Kinder Haven were the best and have meet all my expectations. The staff are highly qualified, friendly and have a great understanding out the children. Both my son and daughter attend the nursery now and they both love it. They have made a fantastic transition to the next room up and security and wellbeing are high in there priorities. I would recommend and definitely will send anymore of my children if I have any.

Review from J M (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The staff are always really friendly and helpful. My son always enjoys being at nursery and on his report at the end of the day he has always been doing lots of activities or exploring the sensory room. He is well cared for with regular nappy changes and has a good variety to eat each week. I always receive a thorough handover when I collect him. The nursery is clean and the outside play area is great. Would highly recommend this nursery to friends and already have done.

Review from Katy M (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter started this nursery as it opened in May 2015. She loves it, and I feel so happy and secure in sending her, knowing she is well cared for.
The outside facilities are fantastic, and the rooms are all very well equipped and always kept clean. They are such a fun environment to spend time in.
The staff are friendly and welcoming, and obviously know my child well by the things they have said to me.
My child has some additional health needs and they are so helpful and reassuring with this.
She is learning new things every day she is there.
The manager is always around if you need her for anything. The key fob entry and cctv are all great safeguarding features.

Overall, it feels like a loving, happy environment and I am happy to be sending my child there.

Overall Experience

Brilliant, brand new & safe facilities for the children. Very clean and well organised. The Keyfob entry is fantastic and gives real reassurance to parents, as does the cctv which can be viewed via the parents room. The manager/staff & keyworkers are very supportive to your child's individual needs and also help support and change if your child's life. I would 100% recommended this nursery.
