Review from Laura (Mother of Child) published on 1 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been at Kinder Haven in Horsforth (term time) since Feb '16 and loves it!

The practitioners are passionate, caring and always able to offer advice and support. They are well experienced and actively work towards your child's developmental milestones. They provide age-appropriate activities and lots of time to play (inside and outside). The staff communicate daily events on an online app, which enables parents to keep a check on what their child has done and eaten.

The nursery itself is very secure and people cannot enter without a fob or a valid reason to do so. Rooms are spacious, secure and well resourced with clean looking equipment. Corridors and rooms are kept tidy and are cleaned well. There is also a lovely outdoor area where children can play outside all year round. The walls display artwork that the children have done themselves or photos of them discovering toys/objects.

Meals are well balanced, nutritious and offer a wide range of different flavours.

Review from Amanda S (Mother of Child) published on 1 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been at KinderHaven Horsforth since it opened in 2015. He's now three and in Brightstars, and loves it even more than the younger rooms! The rooms and outside space are fantastic, and the staff caring and engaging. He really enjoys his time there and always has lots to tell us about what he's been up to. I've recommended K H to several friends and they've all been equally happy with the nursery. Whenever we've had anything to discuss, any minor issues with the staff, we have felt listened to and understood. The staff are great at keeping us informed about our son's development.

Review from Parisa M (Mother of Child) published on 31 October 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child has attended Kinder Haven - Horsforth since she was eight months old and is now two years. The staff and environment are incredibly complimentary for a child to grow and explore. I'm especially an advocate of the EYFS syllabus followed by the nursery, and I've seen my daughter flourish in the presence of her carers.
The nursery actively gets involved with calendar events and celebrations, often my daughter regularly brings home artwork and creative work she's been involved with.

Lovely nursery and happy I chose Kinder Haven.

Overall Experience
We sent out eldest son to another nursery and we thought the service was fantastic but Kinder Haven is in a class of its own with regards to our youngest son.
Fantastic support throughout the company, owner, keyworker, manager and chef.

The building itself I can't fault and out must check out the outside area.

Review from Mrs T (Mother of Child) published on 15 May 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The nursery has gone above and beyond for my son, he loved coming to nursery on a daily basis and is always excited to see the staff, they treat us like family and were always interested in what he has been up to at the weekend. The staff were always on hand if I have needed advice or support which means a lot to me and my son.
The facilities are fabulous with an amazing outdoor area which my son called a park which they explore throughout the day with lots of activities that my son tells me about, sometimes he didn't want to come home!

The nursery is clean, bright and the food smells delicious, I could not ask for anything more. I would recommend for any parents looking for childcare!

All the staff are very professional and our son enjoys his day to day experience at the nursery.

He enjoys all his activities and talks about his day when he gets home. We have been impressed with the relationships he has built at the nursery.

Overall Experience

My son has attended Kinder Haven Nursery in Horsforth since he was 10 months old. He has loved coming here since day one. He is now almost two years old and has made some close friends. The team has massively contributed towards his continued development from a baby to a fun loving and happy energetic little boy. As he continued to build confidence his abilities and skills progress on a daily basis and are always supported by the great carers. I especially like that the building is newly refurbished, the outside play area is fabulous. There is an excellent level of security and the staff are lovely. But mostly I love it because my son loves it.

Overall Experience

I cannot begin to express how wonderful the staff are at Kinder Haven. The facilities are incredible. As a children's centre Manager I had already very high expectations of what I wanted for my baby and Kinder Haven Horsforth has superseded my dreams. My daughter began in Twinklets - what amazing staff! And has moved to Angels, the staff there are equally brilliant. I have four children and have considered having more babies because of the amazing staff. They have great management and leadership in place. Fantastic place. Huge thank you.
