Review from A B (Mother of Child) published on 15 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has been at RAFA kids for several months now and LOVES it. Shes in baby bears with the Laura's and we couldn't ask for anymore perfect, caring, compassionate and experienced in the Laura's to care for our daughter. They celebrate her wins, achievements, growth, her accomplishments and her crazy little personality with such enjoyment, happiness and pride for her development.
The Laura's make dropping our daughter off and going to work that bit easier, we know she is safe, happy and surrounded by fun, singing and energy to match hers.

I can't thank the girls in baby bears enough for keeping our mind at ease and looking after of little one.

Overall Experience

My toddler has been attending the nursery for the last year and a half, she comes home every day happy with something new she's learned to talk to us about. She speaks about her teachers like they are family and enjoys the variety of toys and activities they do. She has learned more than I could have imagined and is excited to attend every day. The staff take my child's allergy seriously and I have no worries about the safety of her food there.

All the staff at RAFA Kidz Wittering are friendly and polite. They helped us settle in nicely and gave my child the adequate space and attention.

After the settling in sessions on the first week I received and overview of my child's time and feedback based on his activities with advice on what needs further focus on his development and learning.

Overall Experience
When my daughter was transitioning to the next room the were very considerate and intune to her needs and helped her feel at ease. They did warm up sessions within the room to prepare her and did activities that the keyworker had highlighted that she enjoyed like singing and painting.
She is very happy and confident within the new room with the staff and the kids, telling me about her day and is always keen to go!

Thank you

Great nursery and the people that work there are just incredible. They have made going back to full time work so easy and my little boy loves going. I don't even worry about him anymore as I know he's having a fantastic time and they are giving him as much love and care as I would be at home

Review from C C (Mother of Child) published on 10 July 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been at this nursery for just over 18 months and she's always excited to go.
Anytime i have had queries or issues the staff have always gone above and beyond. Including the lovely chef who caters for my daughter's dietary requirements. She has thrived and learned so much here and it's given her more confidence, this is due to having lots of outside play and learning, aswell as indoor. I couldn't ask for a better nursery for my children. I can't wait for my other daughter to start here and be looked after and cared for as if they were family.

They are a great support when a parent is deployed also. I would recommend this nursery to anyone without a shadow of a doubt.

Review from Matilda M (Mother of Child) published on 10 July 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with this Nursery and the amazing care they've given our daughter since she started at 1 year old. Now at 3, she has absolutely thrived - socially, emotionally, and developmentally.

The staff are not only kind and nurturing, but they really see each child as an individual. It's so clear how much thought goes into creating a fun, safe, and enriching environment. Our daughter comes home every day excited to tell us what she's learned, who she played with, and what new songs she's singing!

We've seen such a boost in her confidence, language, and independence - and most importantly, she's happy and secure. We are so grateful to the whole team for creating a space where she feels loved, supported, and encouraged to be herself.

Can't recommend them enough!

Overall Experience

Absolutely brilliant nursery. From the baby room where our daughter receives care and nurturing to help her development and she has lots of fun! To the older two in before and after school club which allows us to work while trusting our kids are safe and happy.

I couldn't recommend it any higher.

Overall Experience
Having only just moved into the area, we were very impressed with the nursery, plenty of child-friendly facilities, outdoor play equipment, sand/mud pits, and lots of toys and books. The environment feels very safe and welcoming.
The staff are so friendly and warm and our daughter seems very happy there.
All the team members are extremely supportive,not just for the children but to help parents adjust too.

I would highly recommend using this nursery.

I've been extremely happy since sending my children to this nursery setting. The confidence in both of my children who attend has really came out in them both. It's like having an extended family. The team are not only there for the children but also us parents. I'm so glad my children have been able to learn and grow within this setting. I can't thank you all enough! You're all amazing!!

Review from J M (Mother of Child) published on 30 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been attending this facility for over a year and he is always looking forward to a pre-school day. He loves playing with his friends in the newly refurbished garden and feels confortable with the staff. The staff is always nice, smiling and greeting us, even if they are not in my son's room. We have noticed huge improvement in our son's learning in maths, literacy and social skills thanks to the different activities that are carefully thought through by the staff every day. We love seeing the daily reports too! As this is our son's last year at nursery, a lot has been put in place to liaise with the local primary school to help the children transition smoothly, which is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Review from Hannah D (Mother of Child) published on 24 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been attending this nursery for over a year and he loves it here. He has a good bond with all of the staff and has made friends easily. I am kept updated about my child on pick ups and the app is regulaely updated with what food my child has eaten. They are always teaching new things, and different activities are always set up for the children to get involved in. My child is able to enjoy a lot of outdoor play as they have a good space outside. Overall its a great nursery!!!

Overall Experience
I cannot praise this nursery enough! Both of my children-aged 3 and 1-attend, and they absolutely love it. The staff are so caring, welcoming, and professional. It gives me such peace of mind knowing that my little ones are in such a safe and nurturing environment every day.
My 3-year-old has blossomed with confidence, made so many friends, and is constantly coming home excited to tell me about what they've learned-from songs and stories to numbers and creative play. The team really encourage their development in such a fun and engaging way.
My 1-year-old has settled in beautifully too, which I never expected at that age! The care and attention they give to the tiniest details, from cuddles to nap time, has made such a difference. You can tell the staff truly love what they do.

Thank you to everyone at the nursery-you've become such a special part of our family's life. I wouldn't want my children anywhere else!
