Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 2-year-old has been attending Kiddi Caru in Redhill for over a year. We found that he absolutely loves going there on his nursery days. He settled quickly. The staff working in his room are absolutely amazing.
They are friendly, supportive and hard-working.
They really bring out the best in the
children and encourage them to make friendships and they also create bonds with them.
They always have plenty of exciting and creative activities giving the children the chance to explore activities they generally won't be able to do at home. They are also currently supporting my child with potty training, offering us lots of good tips and supporting the little one at the nursery.
My son has flourished at Kiddi Caru and I feel it is a great place to have your children in.
My child is always pleased to see his nursery teachers and will happily go to them as I walk away, which assures me he is in good hands and receives great care. I would definitely recommend it.

Our daughter started here in May 2021 having previously come from another nursery. The care is absolutely exceptional, the kids are treated with dignity at all times and individual preferences, needs and wishes are taken into account and respected. The nursery is kept clean and tidy at all times, staff
are exceptionally lovely, polite and approachable. Our daughter always has fun at nursery, there is always lots going on. She was supported to make friends, interact and 'come out of her shell'. We cannot express in words well enough how happy we are with the care she receives and seeing her happy being there.

A wonderful nursery where I feel my little boy is safe, loved, encouraged and developed. He's always happy and he's built friendships and has learnt new things, growing in independence every day.
Staff have been brilliant, his key worker in particular and I've always felt they put him and his needs
first. The garden and outside activities have been fab too. Just a really big thank you as he starts his journey in moving up a class.

Review from Emma D (Mother of Child) published on 27 April 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill since November 2018 and we have consistently been impressed with the high standards of care. As an ex preemie, the nursery has supported us and I genuinely mean the whole family, through her early developmental delays, dealing with external agencies
and the eventual diagnosis of cerebral palsy. Whenever my daughter is at the nursery, I am completely confident that not only will she receive excellent care but have great fun through play and learning. Her care plans and ISP will be followed brilliantly and every member of staff is fully capable to support this. In particular, I wanted to mention the support we had from the Special Educational Needs Coordinator and my daughter's key worker, who were instrumental in helping us with the long and complicated process of completing the Educational Health Care Plan application. Their observations and hard work in completing this were key and we could not have done it without them.

Our son has been at this nursery for nearly 7 months and honestly, the level of care shown by the nursery to him has completely exceeded our expectations. He absolutely loves it, he settled in instantly and seems to have a really strong bond with the staff in his class. I love that you get updates through
the app on a regular basis and they keep a close eye on any changes in his development and share little details of things he’s learnt. Overall I honestly couldn’t speak more highly of this nursery we are so so happy we chose to send him there.

It feels like a second home, a really lovely place where my son has been given loads of love and attention. We have been going to this nursery full-time for the last two years and have been very happy with all the care and support provided. My son has learnt a lot and there is a lot of focus on learning
and encouraging children to develop new skills and learn to be more independent which is fantastic practice before going to school. They always have a nice healthy menu, spend a lot of time in the garden and learn a lot! I am just very happy we’ve found this nursery!

Great nursery and fantastic staff. Nothing is ever too much trouble. This is not simple child care, they nurture and develop the children to a very high standard so when they leave for school they are at or above the required standard. If you get the early years right it makes the next stages much easier
- and this nursery has got the balance perfect.

An amazing nursery, thank you to all the staff, three members in particular. You have made my daughter's time at nursery really enjoyable and helped her grow as a person. I can't recommend this nursey enough to anybody in the local area, looking for somewhere for their child. I am so grateful that my
daughter could spend 3-years plus with you all.

My daughter is very happy and has made many friends at Kiddi Caru. She loves the variety of activities provided; from crafts, role play and reading to French, yoga, dance and sing and sign. She has attended 5 days a week since I returned to work form maternity leave, progressing through a fun filled
learning journey, where she reached milestones and has learnt how to make good choices, building confidence through Ducklings, Waterlillies, Cygnets, and now Swans. Transitions from room to room are seamless, and I always feel that she is safe and secure. Potty training was completed quickly, with her friends, just after COVID19 lockdown. As a parent I feel supported and enjoy learning tips and tricks from the staff. I am grateful for the wonderful menu and diet adjustments that have been made for her eczema, as well as their acceptance to apply eczema skin creams. I feel it has been a fantastic choice to select this nursery and highly recommend the excellent team here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Kiddi Caru Redhill is an outstanding nursery, providing brilliant care on virtually a one to one basis. My grandson, who lives with me, has come on extremely well having moved from 1-1 childcare to a nursery environment. He is actively positively thriving here and being extended in his learning where
the staff see his abilities to do so. He receives the very best of care as the staff care so much about the children they look after, there is not a doubt in my mind that this is the very best setting for him to be educated and cared for within such an amazing place. The app they use is so useful to monitor his daily care along with achievements made and videos to keep and discuss at home. I would recommend this nursery to anyone reluctant to leave their child, outgoing or anxious children or anyone seeking the best educational start and the highest standards of care for their child.

At Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill, all the staff know the children's names no matter what class they are in. It is lovely that siblings get to see each other during the day. The in and outflow of the older classrooms is great, and the children always tell me how much fun they've had playing, reading
and having fun with their friends. It's a positive environment and really encourages children to explore and learn.

I cannot praise Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill enough especially with the preschool team. My child has been with the nursery since 1 yo. The management team has always been understanding and attentive. The carers team are knowledgeable and experienced in caring for young children and paying extra attention

Both of our kids attended this nursery and were both happy there throughout the last 5 years. The staff were brilliant especially when my son was suffering with food intolerances they were very accommodating at adapting the menu for him as needed as well as checking certain things were ok for him to
have. It is a safe and lovely environment to leave your children in and I would highly recommend this nursery. The staff are excellent and our kids loved it there.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.496)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.496) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.696 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill is calculated as follows: ( (157 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.696
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill is based on 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 100 number of registered child places is 20. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.8
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
