Review from Sarah J (Mother of Child) published on 18 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot express how amazingly thankful I am to the wonderful staff at Kindred Cheshunt for the years my girls have spent with you. Staff are spectacular - kind and thoughtful and go out of their way to make your child feel at home and loved. Communication is brilliant, and meals for the kids are fab - my extremely fussy three-year-old raves about the food! The two ladies are fantastic leaders and are never too busy to keep you up to date on your child’s progress. My family cannot recommend Kindred Cheshunt enough.

We are a family at Kindred, and we love to see our little ones grow and thrive, using their imaginations, creativity and curiosity. Being able to be involved in their early years of development is such a privilege. We shall pass your compliments...

Overall Experience

My children (twins) have been going to Kindred Cheshunt for the past three years. They started in the baby room and have just graduated from pre-school. They have had excellent care from start to finish and I have always felt that they are safe and cared for. All of the staff are lovely and go the extra mile with your children. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for childcare.

Our son has loved being here, moving to the UK from South Africa was extremely stressful and they were so helpful to get our son settled and feeling safe. They update you on all meals, naps, activities and any incidents that have happened and what they did to solve them. Would highly recommend this nursery for any child.

Overall Experience

My children have attended this nursery over the last six years. The staff have always been so helpful and quick to respond to any questions I have. The main thing that I love about this nursery is how good the room staff are. I can see my child flourishing in a nurturing and structured environment. I can see that my kids are happy to go to nursery and be with their key worker, peers and just be themselves. Such a warm feeling in this nursery. Keep it up.

Reply from Niki McCormick, Marketing Admin at Kindred Cheshunt Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you for your kind review. We always find that the best accolade is a parent who places more than one child into our care. We love that your family has come through the nursery and we at Kindred Cheshunt are just one big happy family and that includes all our children and their parents and carers. We love what we do and we're so pleased you do to.

Quick turnover of staff. Most of them are too young at 19-25 years. Less experienced team. Generally lots of facilities. Looked after. Good activities. Generally good updates. Long days. Only not using experienced staff.

Really happy with the nursery, my daughter took a while to settle in, but the staff was very supportive. She still cries every time I leave her, but the staff find lots of things to distract her. Then she comes home very happy.

I can’t thank all the staff at Bright Stars enough. I highly recommend this nursery. My son started in 2017. Everyone has played a big part in our lives. Feedback and communication is 10/10. All the staff have such a lovely bond with all children (it’s like one big family). For a mum, this is priceless. I’m sad for my son to be leaving. Thanks again for everything.

There’s no other way to describe this setting but fantastic!
We have been so lucky to find such a caring and nurturing environment for our children. Every single person that works at the nursery clearly cares for every child that is there.

We cannot thank everyone enough at Littlebury for taking care of our children from the moment they started. Our eldest is leaving in August and the girls in the room have helped her flourish and prepared her for starting school in September.

Review from L Z (Father of Child) published on 4 July 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending 'Starlings' (Baby Room) at Bright Stars Nursery in Cheshunt since April 2022 and I couldn't be more thrilled with the care he receives. His keyworker is attentive and knowledgeable, as are all of the staff in his room. The environment is clean and inviting, the outdoor space is beautiful and the children always seem well engaged with the practitioners and activities they have set out. I like that I am kept up to date with how his day is going through the ParentZone app, which saves lots of phone calls! Worth noting that the children are always given healthy and nutritious meals and snacks, too. Management are lovely and are invested in you and your child personally. He is incredibly happy there and his excitement is evident when we walk through the doors in the morning. Since joining, his vocabulary and understanding have improved tenfold, so I can't thank Bright Stars Nursery enough for what they have done for him, and I can't wait to see what the next few years bring!

Reply from Melanie Gibbons, Nursery Manager at Kindred Cheshunt Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you so much for your kind words. We are so glad that your little one is enjoying his time here at Littlebury.
