Review from Victoria S (Mother of Child) published on 9 July 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have been so impressed with the care and attention our son has received at this nursery. The teachers are truly amazing-always happy, smiley and welcoming- which has made a huge difference in how our son feels about going to school. Unlike his previous nursery, where he often felt upset and didn't want to attend, here he looks forward to his mornings and enjoys being with his friends. We also noticed great progress in his English skills, which has boosted his confidence not only in speaking but also in interacting with other children and people. He is noticeable more confident within himself, which has been wonderful to see. The positive and nurturing environment has clearly helped him thrive. We're very grateful to the entire team for making this such a wonderful experience for our son. I highly recommend this nursery!

Overall Experience

Kids-Time is a family member for my little one. She started nursery at Kids-Time when she was 2 years old. Then she joined there again for afterschool club since the primary school reception. Kids-Time provides the collection from the school and have a good relationship with her school. I have appreciated the service Kids-Time provides for the single mums like me. My daughter enjoys the food there and still remembers the trip Kids-Time arranged to the zoo and China Town. Staff are very kind and easy to talk. They sometimes organise the parents' coffee time which is very helpful.

Review from William M (Father of Child) published on 10 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Kids- Time has been a great place for our son to learn, get used to playing with other children his own age, and experience new places and develop skills.

The staff are always friendly, keep us up to date on the day's events and any unexpected occurrences via the app, and hand him back at the end of the day with a good verbal summary of what they've been doing.

They give him three meals during the 10-hour day with an excellent menu from the on-site chef and kitchen, there are a good range of indoor and outdoor facilities for different activities each day as well as trips out to local parks or museums, and they are always evaluating and upgrading their equipment and services as they go, currently a big refurbishment has just started!

There are very flexible options for what care is available for a good range of ages, for as many days as you want to pay for, including holiday time, and good integration with childcare funding schemes to split costs.

Review from G B (Grandmother of Child) published on 5 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Each time we press the buzzer and walk in through the entrance door we are always greeted with a hello and a smile. And staff saying the child's name, no matter what their role is, each member of staff are very approachable even during their busiest times, to talk to about any solutions, or issues or even just a general chat on leaving. They have a team for Special Educational Needs, which has been excellent in all areas for my grandchild's learning development. Kids-Time have a brilliant App, Where we can read the weekly updates explaining the topics of all learning activities throughout each day. And photographs to back this up is great to see. We receive monthly updates of what is coming next. It's a great way to communicate directly with the nursery and vice versa (even before opening hours) EG; to inform them about a day off. Stay & Play is a fabulous way for all carers/parents to be involved, it's truly a wonderful place for my grandchild's start in Early Years!

Overall Experience

My Daughter has attended Kids Time since she was 10 months old. She initially struggled to adjust as she wasn't use to being away from me but every member of staff worked their magic to help her settle in and she has thrived ever since! She is now 3 and loves going to nursery everyday. As she has worked her way up through the rooms she has gained so many skills and achievements that wouldn't have been possible without the amazing team at Kids Time. We will both be very sad to leave everyone when she starts school next September but can't thank them enough for giving her the most amazing start to her education.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us-it's been such a privilege to watch your daughter grow from a shy little one into the confident, happy child she is today.

Overall Experience
I cannot recommend Kids Time Nursery highly enough! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the fantastic facilities that are designed with children's learning and play in mind. The environment is bright, welcoming, and filled with resources that spark curiosity and creativity.
One standout feature is the SENCO support , who has been exceptional in supporting children with special educational needs. Their dedication and understanding have made a world of difference for our child, ensuring that every child's unique needs are met with compassion and skill.
The staff at Kids Time Nursery are truly fantastic! They are not only friendly and approachable but also incredibly professional. Each member of the team is committed to providing a nurturing atmosphere where children feel safe and valued. It's clear that they genuinely care about the well-being and development of every child.

Overall, Kids Time Nursery is a wonderful place for children to grow, learn, and thrive.

Excellent nursery!
All staff is very friendly and extremely helpful. They went extra mile providing extra settling days for my children to make sure they were ready for their full days spent at nursery.
Communication is on top level, either through the app or face to face at the time of dropping children or at handover when picking them up. The nursery is spacious indoor and outdoor as well, with plenty of play area.

The nursery is very well organised. They really thought every single detail through.

Review from Katie P (Mother of Child) published on 29 May 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Brilliant nursery, I moved my youngest here when I had problems with her other nursery. My eldest was already here for after school club and we've never looked back!
Everything has been so positive from day 1, the staff are so welcoming and they do great activities and trips.
Both my girls use holiday club and after school club now, and I love the flexibility which makes being a working parent so much easier!
I've had to change days quite a few times over the years due to work, and nothing has ever been an issue.
My girls are happy and make great bonds with the staff even though they're older now.
My main thing with any setting is safeguarding of the children and they excel here - secure building and garden, very on it with procedures and policies.

Would recommend to anyone, either for daycare or wraparound. It will be a sad day when my children get too big for Kids Time!

We have found Kids Time to be a lovely and welcoming nursery for our child. They love going in every day and get to do lots of experiential learning. I love that the children are encouraged to brush their teeth every day and get to paint, do water play, play in the sand pit and get to play outside.
The food is sensational and so varied and they always ensure my child's allergies are taken into consideration.

The room leaders have lots of experience a d are very helpful with any challenges we have faced with potty training.
