Review from Eden C (Mother of Child) published on 30 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter always goes in and comes home from nursery with a big smile. She has settled really well and has learned so much already, the staff are super friendly and very informative about what she has done in the day.

Review from Elizabeth G (Mother of Child) published on 12 April 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little one smiles as soon as he gets to the door. Such a wonderful feeling to know that I’m sending my child somewhere that he is happy to go to. I know that he is safe there and he always has so much fun. When I peer in and see him playing he is always loving it. The practitioners are wonderful and you can tell that they do genuinely care for the children. They keep us up to date regularly on how the children are doing and what activities they have been up to.

Review from Jamie R (Father of Child) published on 7 April 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn’t be happier with RAFA Kidz Digby, our child is clearly well looked after, additional needs are met consistently and he is developing every day through the varied activities. The food is impressive, varied and changes are communicated well. Our child has had the same members of staff in each room throughout his time there which means he is settled and there are always familiar faces. Clearly staff turnover is low which means our child goes to nursery in a good environment with motivated staff. The facilities are excellent with a lovely outdoor area.

Reply from Katie Tatton, Deputy Manager at RAFAKidz Digby

Thank you for your review, we really value our parents' feedback, and it is lovely to hear you are happy with the service that we provide.

Overall Experience

Staff are always friendly and happy. Very accommodating and supportive. My children thoroughly enjoy playing and going. I love the new outside ethos and no use of plastic at lunchtime. Seeing the children self serve their food is wonderful for independence.

Reply from Katie Tatton, Deputy Manager at RAFAKidz Digby

Thank you for your review, it's so nice to hear your lovely comments. We are so pleased your children enjoy coming to our nursery.

Overall Experience

Really easy and flexible service - recently moved to the area. Wrap around team been great with the kids and admin has been straight forward. Boys enjoy the sessions, I would like them to eat everything they're offered rather than say they're not hungry.

Review from Richelle B (Mother of Child) published on 24 July 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son is so happy to be back at nursery after lockdown!
The staff are very friendly and inviting towards every child, including my little monkey. The activities that are planned are so engaging, and the outdoor play area is picture-perfect for littles to explore and have fun! I can always count on my son being tuckered out from having fun all day when I pick him up at the end of the day.
If you have queries about your littlens day, the staff are happy to look into it for you and come back with an answer/solution. The online daily diary entries, sometimes with pictures, is wonderful to read and see how your little is developing.

Couldn’t have wished for a more wonderful setting for my son right on our doorstep.

Reply from Cheryl Cooper, Nursery Manager at RAFAKidz Digby

Thank you for your lovely review, we love having him back! He loves being in nursery, especially exploring our outdoor area and going for walks to see the 'big planes'. Thank you for choosing our nursery and allowing us the pleasure of seeing him grow and develop.

Fantastic nursery with lovely staff who really engage with and care about the children in their care.

Fantastic nursery, as a parent you know the nursery is doing an amazing job when your child doesn’t want to come home at the end of the day because he is having too much fun. He has grown and progressed so much while in the setting

Review from Charlene K (Mother of Child) published on 29 June 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The nursery is exemplary. The care my daughter receives is second to none the staff go above and beyond in their roles. My only negative feedback would be regarding the change over to Rafa Kidz, the processes proposed have been slow and in most instances not implemented.

Reply from Cheryl Cooper, Nursery Manager at RAFAKidz Digby

Thank you for taking my call in regards to your concern with the take over of the nursery. As the new manager of the setting I will ensure that I become familiar with the information discussed during the consultation meetings and address your administrative questions. I am so happy with your...

Lovely early years setting, good communication and all staff go above and beyond for the children in their care.

My Son loves attending and has made some lovely friendships. He is preparing to go to school in September and with their help I'm confident it will be a smooth transition.

Reply from Cheryl Cooper, Nursery Manager at RAFAKidz Digby

Thank you for your review. It has been a pleasure to care for your son and he is a very popular member of preschool. He will be missed when he goes to school, but he is more than ready for this next stage of his learning journey. I hope that we see him in holiday club.
