Review from I L (Mother of Child) published on 13 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My daughter started at Kinderland Central at the beginning of the year and settled in straight away. Drop-offs were easy, she was happy from day one, and I was impressed with the staff, their attentiveness, and the diverse environment. She eats well, learns, and always comes home happy, so I know she
is well cared for. However, after several months, I've noticed a worrying issue: staff turnover. It feels like every few weeks familiar staff leave and new faces appear, including some very loved and parent-voted staff. As a parent, this is unsettling because my daughter builds bonds only to have them broken soon after. Having spoken to some staff before they left, it's clear there are underlying issues. While I still think Kinderland is a great nursery and my daughter enjoys it, for the premium fees charged, I believe staff stability and retention should be a top priority.
Overall daughter is doing really well there, and in many ways, I can't fault the care she receives on a daily basis

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We've had a wonderful experience at Kinderland! Our son has settled in beautifully and absolutely loves his new nursery. The staff are incredibly welcoming, attentive, and know him so well. Initially, I had some anxiety, but the excellent communication and care have put my mind at ease.


The outdoor

space is phenomenal, and our son can't get enough of it! The nursery rooms are spacious, colorful, and well-resourced. Every day, my son greets me with a big smile at pickup time.


The staff do an amazing job caring for the children, and we're so grateful for their dedication. We highly recommend Kinderland to anyone looking for a nurturing and engaging nursery experience. Thank you, Kinderland, for providing such a loving environment for our son!

My son has recently started at Kinderland central, although he was already used to nursery life moving him to a new setting was daunting for me as a mother. The staff at Kinderland have been amazing through this settling process. The room leader of Tumble Tigers really took the time and effort with
my son which really put me at ease! I can't wait to see my son thrive at the nursery!


I would also like to add on how stunning the nursery is and all the extra curriculum that the nursery offer is an added bonus for me!

Review from Natalie B (Mother of Child) published on 7 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter is 2 and has never been left in an unfamiliar setting without a family member. She started at Kinderland Central nursery a few weeks ago and is thriving. I had a lot of anxiety leading up to her start date as I wasn't sure how she was going to react but from meeting the staff at her first
settling session I immediately felt reassured as they were all so lovely and welcoming. The nursery itself is well equipped, clean and full of lots of exciting activities for the children to explore. The most reassuring aspect from a parents point of view is that my daughter is always excited to go to nursery and happy when she greets the staff, then upon collection she is reluctant to leave.

Our little one has attended Kinderland Day Nursery Central for a number of weeks now and is loving every minute! The nursery team are caring, attentive and warm - always letting my husband and I know how our child has got on that day and all the things they enjoyed doing! They have lots of lovely activities
for the children to play with, books to read and tasty food. My husband and I couldn't be happier with Kinderland and how well our little one has settled in, we can't recommend them enough! Thank you to the whole team for being so brilliant!

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.661)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.661) out of 10 for Kinderland Day Nursery Central Croydon is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.883 for Kinderland Day Nursery Central Croydon is calculated as follows: ( (55 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.883
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 3.778 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kinderland Day Nursery Central Croydon is based on 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.5
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 90 number of registered child places is 18. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.278
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
