Review from A M (Mother of Child) published on 18 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

All staff are very friendly, my child started when he was around 9 months and he is now 3. He walks through the door every morning without a 2nd glance at me, he would rather chat to the staff member at the door. If I ever have any questions or concerns the staff have been helpful. I would highly recommend the nursery.

Overall Experience

Brilliant childcare. I've had my daughter with them since they were in the baby room all the way through to the preschool room where she is now. All the staff are very kind and caring and are always very helpful and informative about my child. They take the children out on walks daily, sometimes twice a day which is very important for me as a parent that my daughter gets out during the day. The location is excellent, being beside Londonderry Park. I wouldn't send my child to any other nursery.

Overall Experience

Amazing nursery. My daughter goes in happy and comes out happy. The staff get to know the children in a group but especially as an individual and that’s what has been fantastic for my little girl. They adapted ways to give her support when she needs it and communicated with myself in a warm and understanding way.

Review from Lauren P (Mother of Child) published on 1 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I was so nervous going back to work, and the staff instantly made my worries disappear. Kindergarten Kids is a fantastic nursery. My twin boys are in the baby room, and the care they receive is second to none. I can tell by my son's faces the second I pull up to the nursery how excited they are to go in and play and see all the staff. My boys have come on so much in the last 12 months, and I know that Kindergarten Kids have played their part in promoting their development. I'll never forget when one of my sons started waving at me after nursery one day, something he had never done before! It was also one of the most reasonably priced nursery schools that didn't expect a minimum attendance, something I struggled to find as a twin mum as everything is usually double the cost; Kindergarten Kids charge very fairly, which I appreciate so much. Thank you for all your care for my babies.

Review from Brenda S (Mother of Child) published on 13 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son is in the toddler room and really enjoys going. The supervisor and all the girls in that room are so lovely. The app they use is a great way of seeing how little one is doing throughout the day. Owners are fab and all the management team are really approachable also. Not a bad word to say, wouldn't go anywhere else.

Review from Laya M (Mother of Child) published on 13 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter started in Kindergarten Kids over a year ago, aged 1. She was born in lockdown and had a very high stranger danger radar. The staff have been patient and understanding in helping her adjust to going to nursery. My daughter goes two days a week, and it amazes me how much the staff get to know each child and their likes, dislikes and what comforts them.

The nursery is located beside a nice park area, and we regularly see little groups of nursery kids out for walks there.

Review from Chloe B (Mother of Child) published on 12 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to Kindergarten Kids for just over a year and we absolutely love it. The staff are kind, attentive, and clearly care for her so well. My daughter loves going to nursery, running in and not even looking back! Which for a girl who is very attached to her mummy is no small thing. We are so grateful to have found a nursery that we love so much. Couldn't recommend more.

Couldn't find a better place to look after your children. My son has been there since he was in the baby room and now in the preschool room and loves it. My daughter went as well from when she was a toddler. First-class care from first-class staff.

Overall Experience

After only her direct family looking after her with being a COVID baby, I was worried about putting her into daycare but from day 1, I was put at ease. Every time she goes in she's excited to be there and waves every time going past in the car! A lovely place for kids to go!

My son started here when he was seven months old. He has loved every minute of it sense. The staff are amazing and and genuinely loving and caring toward the kids but also toward us parents. There is nothing to small for them and they help us parents in any way they can. I feel blessed to have my son in as nursery he is so happy in.

I have 2 daughters at Kindergarten Kids (baby room and pre-school) and they absolutely love it. The girls were so great when settling in and really understanding. They keep in regular contact and always update me on how my daughters are getting on. I give their service 10/10.

Review from Stephanie Y (Mother of Child) published on 2 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son now loves going to nursery after being an isolated lockdown baby. The girls were really helpful and considerate during our settling-in period and would happily send through updates/pictures to reassure me he was happy. Now in the new premises, they can go for daily walks in the park, and he loves standing at the windows and watching all the cars go by!

Review from Jasmin H (Mother of Child) published on 1 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Having been at a few nurseries, we were naturally anxious about starting over, however, our little boy has loved every minute at Kindergarten Kids. They treat him so well and we are kept really well updated throughout the day. Every member of staff knows him by name (even those who don’t work with him!) - it really is a home away from home. We have already recommended Kindergarten Kids to so many of our friends, couldn’t speak highly enough of them!

Overall Experience
From day one our daughter has loved going to the old location and the new premises. Now our second child has just started, it has been less stressful as we already know how good Kindergarten Kids is.
Have already recommended them to work colleagues who are pregnant.

Big thank you to all the staff for the updates and images of the girls via their app. Nice treat when in work.

I have two boys at Kindergarten Kids (3 and 6) and they have been at the nursery from 7 and 9 months. They both love it! As parents we love the home-from-home care they get while we are both at work. Would highly recommend it to anyone in the area!

Both my sons have been attending Kindergarten Kids nursery for nearly two years now and I have to say all the staff are friendly, professional, helpful, and doing an amazing job, they have both received so much care and love from the staff. The boys are enjoying spending time outside in the park and playground. I would highly recommend it.
