RAFAKidz Leeming

We have had such a positive experience, and it is genuinely sad to be taking my daughter out. We will always be grateful to all the wonderful staff for everything they have done for her. Highly recommended!

Absolutely amazing nursery! We're so happy with the care they provide for our little one! He's always so happy to be there, all the staff is so lovely and I'm so thankful for how supportive they are of the children and parents. The best nursery out there!

Excellent nursery and the staff truly care about the children. My son started at 12 months old and is now 2. His development thanks to the staff has been incredible. His speech, confidence, eating is improving every day. I'm so sad to be moving as I genuinely love this nursery and I know my son does too. I never worry and have full confidence in the staff. The staff are always helpful and make time if you need to go through anything. Thank you.

We absolutely love this nursery. My daughter has thrived in terms of confidence, speech and how she eats, and you can really see how much the nursery staff care about her and the other children - they are amazing. The food is great, always gets eaten and the rooms are always packed full of activities. My daughter gets excited to come to nursery and do 'whats in the box' so much, that she's started to do it at home!! The support myself & my daughter have recieved whilst my other half has been deployed has been so lovely as well - you can just feel the genuine care and concern from all of the staff in the office and in my daughters room. I have just had another baby and she is already on the waiting list for when I go back to work - really wouldn't want to send my children anywhere else. So greatful for everything- thank you !!

We are so incredibly grateful for the care and support our children received from RAFA Kidz. From day one, the staff have been welcoming, kind, and truly dedicated to creating a nurturing environment. Our children's well-being is their top priority. The team takes time to get to know each child, offering support that is thoughtful and tailored to their needs. As parents, it gives us peace of mind to know our children are in such loving hands every day! Thank you to all of the amazing staff for everything! We could not have chosen a better nursery for our children to start their academic journey!

Staff are helpful, kind and willing to take feedback and caring.

My little boy has been in the nursery for nearly 3 years, he has thrived in each and every room. The staff are amazing, and the love and care they give the children shines through. He wouldn't be the kind, clever, and confident little boy he is today without RAFAKidz, thank you!

Such a home-from-home nursery. The staff are superb, so caring and affectionate towards the children. The baby room manager is incredible. She cares for the children like they're her own and puts so much effort into creative play for their development. The other ladies are all so enthusiastic and create a fun and warm environment. Both my daughter and son, love it so so much and I have also been given so much support when my daughter was really poorly. Super grateful for these ladies and I couldn't recommend the nursery more for those on camp.

My daughters have attended here for 9 years in total. They have thrived here! The staff goes above and beyond, always engaging with the children. The manager understands military life better than anyone and is always on hand to help. Wonderful environment, staff are amazing!

What an amazing nursery. My daughter started at the nursery and transitioned perfectly to start reception at school last year. The lovely relationship between the nursery and school definitely helped. She attends before and after school club and loves it.

Excellent nursery, that go out of the way for the children and parents. Nothing is too much trouble. Always doing something fun with the children and they are all really happy and settled. Highly recommend!

Our daughter loves attending nursery, she always looks like she’s had a great day and she was very happy to see me. I was very happy to watch her playing and see what she gets up to on a day-to-day basis.

I’d also like to add the work the staff members do for the community is fantastic, such as hiding books around the area and leaving small gifts on people's doorsteps!

Our little girl started here in November when she was just six months old. She is now ten months old and is absolutely thriving. We were so worried about her being so young, but the girls in the baby room were amazing with her. She loves going to nursery and will nod if we mention her key worker and room lead name. She has made a few little friends there, and it makes us really sad knowing she is leaving here next month. Thank you, Rafa Kidz Leeming, for making our little ones' nursery journey begin with such a lovely one.

A lovely nursery that provides a welcoming and happy environment for our son, who loves attending and interacting with the staff and other children. They are always so new things and creating a learning environment for the children.

A brilliant nursery that both my children love attending. The staff are friendly, caring and brilliant at what they do. The amount of care and attention that is shown to the children is outstanding. What a lovely bunch of ladies who work at this nursery! I couldn't recommend it enough!

I cannot speak highly enough of this nursery, my 2 year old has settled so well. She has additional needs and all members of staff have been so supportive. I can go to work and feel 100% content that my daughter has everything she needs. She has developed into a beautiful little person and the nursery has been an absolute rock for her. I would never dream of leaving the setting I only wish my other two elder daughters could have had the same care and experiences. Thank you so much.

RAFA Kidz Leeming is a fantastic community-focused nursery that goes the extra mile to support children and their families. Our daughter has attended the setting for just shy of two years and has enjoyed every day thoroughly. The staff are very kind, caring and professional in every respect and work collaboratively with parents to ensure children have the best possible experience. The range of daily activities they provide is excellent, and their efforts to enable children to engage with local events right through national initiatives are amazing. What is more, the nursery is managed extremely well; communication from the Management Team is timely, clear and helpful. We certainly feel we made a very good choice by sending our daughter here and that it has set her well on the way to a successful transition to primary school!

When we joined RAFA Kids Leeming Nursery my daughter was shy with difficulties with her speech. She spent the first year in full-time nursery and the difference in her speech was amazing. She is now in year 1 but attends Jesters (wrap-around care at this nursery for 18 months). She has blossomed into a confident, polite young lady. The staff are passionate about the children's development, always ensuring there are crafts and activities for the children to join in on. There is a lovely outside area to play in the summer, which is well managed by staff from a safeguarding point of view. I see the cleaning staff there at pick-up every evening, ensuring the nursery is in tip-top condition for the next day’s activities. A big thank you to all the staff for making my daughter feel welcome and settled. 5*

All 5 of my children have been to the setting and they absolutely love(d) it. The staff are like family and treat the children like their own. They even undertook specialist training to look after my son with complex special needs. I can't rate them highly enough.
