Overall Experience

A fantastic nursery - my son has been attending since he was 1 year old and is so happy and thriving at the nursery. The staff are amazing and create the perfect balance between a caring, nurturing environment whilst focusing on children's development. The menu is varied and lots of different activities including a dance and football coach coming in every week. Such fantastic facilities and events throughout the year. Couldn't recommend more!

Review from J H (Mother of Child) published on 26 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

One of my children previously attended Creative Kids in Shenfield and the other currently does. I feel so lucky they've attended this nursery. The staff care so much and there's a real variety of fun activities. They teach the children important skills such as sitting down together and eating themselves, as well as phonics, maths etc. Both my children have been so happy and gained so much from Creative Kids. It's wonderful knowing they're safe and being given lots of care and attention from the wonderful staff there. All staff, from cleaning, cooking, nursery staff and management all seem to really care about delivering an excellent experience for the children.

Review from Sam V (Mother of Child) published on 26 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Harry, has absolutely thrived at this nursery. From the moment he joined at 9 months old, he has been welcomed with kindness, patience, and genuine care. The staff take the time to really get to know each child, and it shows in how confident, happy, and settled he is.
The learning environment is fantastic-engaging, creative, and perfectly suited to curious little minds. Harry comes home excited to tell us the friends he has played with, and all the new things he has learned. We've seen such positive development in his communication, independence, and confidence.
What truly stands out is how nurturing and supportive the team are. They communicate brilliantly with parents, celebrate each child's achievements, and create such a warm, family-like atmosphere. It's clear that Harry feels safe, valued, and encouraged every day.

We couldn't be happier with the care and attention he receives. A huge thank you to the team for giving Harry such a wonderful start!

Reply from Emma O'Doherty, Manager at Creative Kids Nursery Brentwood

Thank you again.

Review from D K (Mother of Child) published on 30 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a mum, handing your little one over to someone else's care is one of the hardest things you'll ever do.But from the very beginning, the team have gone above and beyond to make the transition not only smooth, but truly special.
They took the time to really get to know my little boy - habits,needs, his unique personality - and tailored their care in the most thoughtful and attentive way. Just two weeks in, and he's already running into the arms of Millie, Brooke, Grace, and Nicole (apologies if I've missed anyone - you're all amazing!).
What felt like one of the hardest moments has been transformed into a beautiful experience, all thanks to the genuine love, empathy, and nurturing care that comes so naturally to every single member of staff.
I'm already seeing such wonderful development in my little boy - from his confidence to his communication - and it's clear that the work they're doing with him is making a real impact.

I honestly couldn't have asked for more.

Overall Experience

I feel incredibly lucky and grateful that my daughter has had the chance to attend Creative Kids Shenfield. As her nursery journey comes to an end with school starting in September, it's the perfect moment to reflect on the truly wonderful experience she's had.

The entire team has been amazing-always kind, caring, and genuinely committed to the children's wellbeing and development. A special thank you to the manager, whose leadership sets such a positive tone throughout the nursery. We're also especially thankful for 4 other staff members who are my daughter's absolute favourites have each played a big role in making her days so joyful, nurturing, and fun.

It's clear that the staff always have the children's best interests at heart, and the warm, supportive environment they've created has made a lasting impact on our little one. I couldn't have asked for a better start to her early years.

Thank you, Creative Kids Shenfield, for everything!

Review from N F (Mother of Child) published on 4 November 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Creative Kids is a friendly, fun and educational nursery that has brought out the absolute best in my son.
He has been attending since he was 10 months old, and I have always felt he was safe, looked after and nurtured.
In his current room, I am sent daily updates with photos of all the activities he is enjoying, and he is now on his way to being fully potty trained - thanks in no small part to their efforts. He has grown and developed so much in his time there.
The staff always have time to help and provide advice when needed, and they support the local community such as the recent charity food bank donation.
The girls there feel like family and my son loves them all - its so nice they have watched him grow through the years.

I would recommend to anyone.

Overall Experience
My daughter loves attending Creative Kids, Shenfield, the staff that look after her are attentive to all her needs and go above and beyond every single day to ensure she is happy and content. The nursery is a homely environment and I couldn't have chosen a better team for my daughter. You can tell that all the staff know their children and key children very well. She loves the food and always eats all of her meals and is always happy when I collect her.

Thank you to everyone at Creative Kids, Shenfield.

Overall Experience

The girls who look after my daughter are so welcoming, and friendly and put my mind at rest knowing that my daughter is fine and happy, they are positive when collecting and dropping off. My daughter is always smiling when I pick up so I know she is happy there. They do great creative activities which enhance her learning and every day she does is different! The nursery manager is very welcoming and very knowledgeable, she is willing to help whenever she can. The nursery is very clean tidy and well run, and I am always well informed about updates through apps and newsletters! 5 star rating from me.

All the staff at Creative Kids have been amazing. My son struggled to settle in due to separation anxiety and the nursery has gone above and beyond to help him. Every staff member I’ve met has been so friendly and supportive. The facilities are fantastic and he loves the garden. We are really looking forward to watching him grow and develop with the huge range of activities the nursery provides. Thank you Creative Kids!

Review from Kayleigh B (Mother of Child) published on 28 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The nursery has been fantastic, they settle babies into the nursery and keep the parents informed of their routine, activities, and progression. They ensure children have a range of activities and different throughout the day, my child tries all different foods from the chef on site, with the food changing month to month. The staff are caring, and polite, and really do understand each child is different. So even on the days when a child is not happy when dropping off, they know how to settle them into the class with confidence. The outdoor space is amazing too. Both indoor and outdoor spaces are kept immaculate and clean.

Review from Katie M (Mother of Child) published on 7 September 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Excellent care at the nursery. My child loves going there and spending time with her friends and carers. Good communication with the app. Parking is a nightmare, only downfall, as there is nowhere to park. We were told we could part at the banqueting suite next door, however, they have changed their system and only allow fifteen minutes. A lot of people have received tickets for quick pick-ups.

Overall Experience

Creative Kids Brentwood is a fantastic nursery. My eldest has attended full-time for the last year and a half and, through their support and care, is a flourishing two and a half year old. The staff genuinely care about all the children in the nursery and do everything to ensure they are safe, happy and having fun! As well as the incredible garden and play area, we love the fact there's an on-site library and external teachers that come each week to do dance and football. My youngest has also just started full-time and is already absolutely loving her days at Creative Kids.

Review from Emma P (Mother of Child) published on 10 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been at creative kids for 9 months now and the care he has received has been exceptional. He’s been in both the youngest room and now in an older room and he has been very happy in both. He spends long days there due to the hours we work and it’s lovely as parents to know how much he enjoys his time there. The staff are outstanding - so caring and clearly very dedicated to their jobs. His speech has come along so much over the last few months and I know a lot of that is thanks to the hard work nursery put into helping him develop. They’re great at communication and also very organised which helps as full-time working parents! My daughter will be starting there soon and I’m looking forward to seeing her enjoy herself and develop like my son has. We are very lucky to have such an outstanding place for our children in such a convenient location - I manage drop off to on the train in 4 minutes! Highly recommend to any prospective parents.

Overall Experience

Very happy with our experience at Creative Kids Shenfield. My son thoroughly enjoys his time there and has come along leaps and bounds since he started. There is a great outdoor space and they make a great effort to use it unless the weather really doesn’t allow. The staff are friendly and take pride in their work. Our son could be a bit picky with food before he started but they've made a big effort to introduce him to a varied diet and he's now a great eater. Very pleased with everything. Highly recommend.

Review from J M (Mother of Child) published on 29 July 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has been attending Creative Kids since it opened. After little social interaction during lockdowns, this was her first experience of attending nursery at nearly 2.5 years old. We couldn’t be happier with the way in which the staff care for her and have helped her settle into a new environment and to interact with her peers.

The facilities are fantastic - bright, clean, spacious and amazing outside space. Meals are varied and nutritious and we get lots of feedback either verbally at the end of the day or through the app.
