Welcome to RafaKidz Wittering, a 99 place setting, open 51 weeks per year, catering for both Military and Civilian families. At RafaKidz Wittering little ones can experience a nurturing, warm and stimulating environment from 3 months to 5 years, ultimately preparing them for school.
At RafaKidz Wittering staff strongly focus on play based learning taking leads from the children's interests, the indoor areas are filled with age appropriate resources that cater for different aspects of each child's development. Each room has their own separate garden area, allowing the children to engage in physical activities and connect with nature. There is also a dedicated, fenced-off nature space as part of the nursery that children can really learn about all things nature in.
Parent partnerships are very important and you will be kept up to date regularly with your child's day and development through the Famly app.
The Nursery also operates a small out of school club within the setting and can accommodate 26 children.

About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

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.

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.
My child has been attending the nursery from September 2025 and i've had the best experience so far. My child is well taken care of by the staff and he loves the food. Their safe guarding is top notch. They are simply the best.

My little boy really enjoys coming to the nursery and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. He always comes home happy and smiling when I pick him up him up and always has fun. Very good nursery.

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.
My son has been at this nursery for four months we have never had any issues he settled very quickly into the nursery and the staff are amazing my son is very happy at this setting , I'm always kept updated with what he's doing and have always been a variety of activity for him to do there .

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!
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.

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.

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!!!
Thank you for the lovely review, it is lovely to hear :)

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!

The staff have been amazing with both my son and myself which I feel is very important. They keep me updated with any changes, issues, etc and support us both.
He wasn't great with the dinners at the start but the staff have persevered with him and he is gradually starting to enjoy them and has even had seconds on odd occasions!
I hope he continues to enjoy his time as he moves up through the years before school so he can grow with his friends.
5 Stars from us to you all!
Thank you, it has been a pleasure looking after all your little one :)
