Kido Golders Green (West Heath Drive)

I am very pleased with Kido Golders Green. My son enjoys the time he spends at Kido and I am very impressed with all the activities they accomplish and what he is learning. He has made friends and you can tell he has a good relationship with the staff at Kido as well. I would love to recommend Kido to anyone looking for a nursery.

We are absolutely delighted by the way our son has settled into Kido and the development we have observed in him. The staff is very caring and extremely responsive to the parent's questions and requests. Our son loves going in every morning, which I think is the best indicator of how nurturing and supportive the environment is.

My daughter is thriving at Kido Golders Green. I am extremely happy with the service and the education my daughter is receiving. I know the practitioners care for my daughter and I am sent weekly observations and pictures. Couldn't be happier!

Absolutely love Kido Golders Green. My granddaughter attends full time and we could not be happier with the care, love and activities provided. The nursery's communication is great and their nifty app has allowed us to share her nursery experience!

Our son started at Kido Golders Green just 3 weeks ago and we are already seeing significant development. He settled very quickly and is always so happy when we drop or pick him up. The carers are so friendly and happy to adapt to our child’s schedule. We also love how connected we are through the nursery app. Would highly recommend Kido Golders Green!

Kido has been a wonderful nursery for both of my daughters. They are both extremely happy here and the staff are fantastic - so friendly and incredibly caring. The nursery has been particularly well run throughout the various lockdowns, especially comparing to friends experiences at other nurseries. I would definitely recommend.

Our daughter is now two years but started nursery at ten months for three weeks and then sadly we went into lockdown. She returned to Kido Golders Green last September 2020 and has been so happy since. She settled back straight away, runs into the nursery every morning and adores all her nursery teachers. Kido Golders Green have been great at sharing weekly updates and pictures of her day which we love getting. It is such a relief to know that we can rely on Kido Golders Green during the working week. Thank you Kido Golders Green.

My child has been attending this nursery for almost two years now and the best review I can think of is the fact that she's happy there. She's built some strong friendships with both children and staff, is learning skills she's surprising us with and we are confident she's safe and well cared for. We see this via an app, we are being constantly updated with information about her activities, meals, naps and toilet visits, as well as any bump or scratch that happens.

There were times when my daughter didn't want to go (especially after prolonged time at home) and they were always patient and supportive with me trying to calm her down at the entrance and when they saw my distress at her reaction offered more frequent than usual updates about her that day which was very thoughtful.

We have had at least one of our children at Kido during the past 16 months and we've been extremely impressed with this nursery, specifically the way they settle in the kids, have adapted to the new environment of lockdown, update the parents with detailed information (both remotely and at the end of the day), generally create a warm, friendly and educational environment for the kids. Also, the graduation ceremony for the leavers was a fantastic event and indicative of the huge effort all the staff at Kido make. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Kido is an amazing nursery and we have already directed a few families there for their children. The staff are amazing and truly love and care about the children. We have watched our three children flourish and thrive at Kido because of their dedication. We absolutely love Kido Golders Green.

My daughter loves going to Kido; she always has a good time. The staff are lovely, and the range of learning opportunities both inside the nursery and in the garden she receives whilst at nursery is outstanding.

Our daughter has developed tremendously academically and socially since she started at Safari Kid Golders Green in Sept 2018. Several people in her life have commented on how much happier and more outgoing she has become since joining this nursery. She loves her teachers and her friends at school and talks about them with us often. We get reports through the Famly App on a weekly basis (with pictures!) on how much she has learned, whether it’s writing her name in the salt tray, or weighing the different types of dinosaurs during exploration, or building structures in the garden or learning Mandarin or French, she truly enjoys discovering new things at Safari Kid. We can’t be more pleased. She is our 3rd child and this is by far the best nursery experience we had (it’s our 3rd nursery spanning across South Kensington, Maida Vale and Golders in 6 years). Biggest difference? Transparency. We feel so much more connected to the school and her learning experience than any of the other nurseries.

Very impressed with the progress of my daughter at Safari Kid. She comes home every day and can not stop talking about all the different activities she does during the day. She has really changed in many positive aspects and I can not thank Safari Kid enough for all their help and support towards this.

Our twins have been attending the nursery since October. They had a free week of settling in for a few hours a day.

We love the nursery, it is clean (and sanitised regularly), all the toys and books are new. The staff are the most important thing and they are really caring, they pick up the kids when they are upset and seem to genuinely really like the twins. The setting for their age group is so generous with a huge well-appointed room with different play areas and high-end children's furniture. The outside space is bright, not too big or small and has nice toys/play areas. They seem to do plenty of messy play (judging by our washing) and the day is well organised. The food sounds tasty too.

It is expensive (especially 1/2 days) and 5% sibling discount is not very generous. They really should do free nappies (wipes) as it is a bit unmanageable.

Ultimately the kids are happy, stimulated, and loved and the staff are amazing. Ours are really flourishing there. The app is good too.

I have recommended this nursery to a lot of people who have also enrolled their kids there and have been incredibly happy too.

The staff is friendly and helpful. I highly recommend a visit to the nursery.

We looked at other nurseries but really liked Safari as it was new, the space was light and open and the staff seemed very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and interested in early years development. Our daughter started in October when she was 19 months old and has been very happy. Every morning she looks forward to going into nursery and we are greeted by smiling and happy staff and children.

Kids are stimulated and there is learning through play and trips are made to Golders Hill Park and the Nursery has a very nice outside playground. Our daughter loves it and that is the main thing for us.

The location near the tube station is also extremely convenient for drop-offs in the mornings.

It is more expensive compared to other nurseries but I guess you get what you pay for.

Overall, we feel our child is nurtured and safe and the staff really care, which is the most important thing of all.

The facility is beautiful and it's obvious the kids enjoy it very much.
