Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son thoroughly enjoys attending nursery every day. I think he would go on the weekend if he could. The staff are brilliant and caring and always in a good mood. I know that he is learning tons and being prepared for school in the best way possible. But the most important thing to me is that he is
happy. What more could a parent want.

My daughter attended the nursery from July 2019 until April 2021.
It was a fantastic experience! The staff are super friendly. The activities are very attractive, she was returning home very happy and if, for some reason, I said she would not go to the nursery the next day she would be very upset!
She had a lot of fun during that time at Kido in Camden.

Since starting at Kido Camden, my child has come through leaps and bounds. He’s super happy here and the activities are always age-appropriate. We are always in communication with the staff members, they always send photo updates and always happy and super friendly. The garden space is good and has
different areas for them to play in. Will definitely be recommending to others.

The staff at Kido in Camden have made our son completely welcome since he turned 1 and joined the nursery. They spend as much time as possible outdoors, offer feedback and updates regularly via the app and at the nursery gate at pick-up and drop-off times. My son is happy each morning when he arrives
and most evenings he leaves tired and a bit mucky, which I firmly believe is a sign of a great and successful day. Kido is a wonderful place for a child.

My daughter, who is two years old, has been attending this nursery for the last year or so.
She seems very happy and is progressing well. There is a garden at the back, kids spend a lot of time outside. The nursery staff are very caring, and the communication during Covid-19 has been great.

Very happy overall of the great environment and people at nursery. Pleased to see my son thrilled to go to nursery every day and coming back with new skills and things he has learnt. All staff are kind, approachable and very knowledgeable and the activities are always inclusive of all culture and backgrounds/world-oriented.
The app used for communications and updates is very clever and give immediate feedback on how my son's day was.

They are so lovely and look after all children like their own, they get to know everyone children and parents. They know how to comfort your children if they are unsettled and know how to work around children that need extra support. They have grown alot as a team and just keep getting stronger and
better.
You can always have a catch up with your child's keyperson or keybuddy. If needed you can speak to the management and they will put your mind at ease about anything.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot say enough good things about Kido Camden. I have two children here so we have experienced all the rooms from baby up to pre-school, and the quality and standard of care across the whole setting is outstanding. The facilities are excellent - toys, books, food and outdoor space. But what really
makes Kido Camden exceptional is its staff. Every single member of staff that we have met has been so warm, patient and caring. They really display a passion for the children and their development, and it is so reassuring as a parent to know you are leaving your little ones in such a secure, fun and loving environment. This is the third nursery my kids have attended due to house moves and it really stands out - I would highly recommend.

Our kid has been at Kido almost since it opened and we could not be happier. The staff are lovely, and the nursery is new and resourceful. Food is also very good, with healthy snacks throughout the day. They do lots of activities, but the most important part for me, is the staff, and I feel very lucky
to have these people looking after our kid; they are all very professional and very caring. Organisation and communication are also very, very good!

Lovely staff and management. My son is always happy to go to the nursery and see the girls at the door. He learnt words and has fun activities. I know he is in good hands, which is the most important. Food is always diverse. Could do with a bit more organisation with not mixing children's clothes or
making sure accident files are signed. Apart from this, I'm super satisfied!

We love bringing our little one here. It’s a very friendly and welcoming place and the staff are great they make sure they do all they can to care for our girl and make sure she is having fun and learning.
I feel comfortable leaving my girl here and the staff show a real interest in the children and
not treat it just like it’s a job having worked in the childcare setting myself for many years this is very reassuring.
I would 100% recommend this nursery without hesitation I have already told a few parents about it.

Kido is a great nursery with staff that make such an effort to get to know each child and foster strong relationships with both parents and children! My son is always very happy to be dropped off at nursery and has wide access to a range of activities, outdoor learning, sensory play, languages and lots
more! He clearly enjoys his days there, especially the food! I always feel content and reassured when I leave him and love seeing all the new things he has learnt when I pick him up!

Kido Camden is such a great nursery: a brand new environment with bright and clean spaces. The most amazing thing about Kido is their people: all staff are positive, caring, friendly and very knowledgeable towards children. They do great activities with the children such as visiting the local pet shop,
introduce kids with Mandarin and French, and take pride in offering healthy meals and snacks.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.274)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.274) out of 10 for Kido Camden is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 8 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 4.948 for Kido Camden is calculated as follows: ( (91 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.948
  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 4.326 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kido Camden is based on 8 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 = 3.8
    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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.2 = 0.526
  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.
