My baby has been attending since September last year. Ever since my daughter has been going to KLN I can see that she is thriving. She is only 16 months currently but loves her key worker so much that she often wants to stay at nursery with her teacher. The washload a day is a small price to pay
for the experience she gets at the allotments. Photos have been sent home multiple times of her covered head to toe in mud which is exactly how she should be experiencing childhood. Thanks everyone

Just an amazing team who care for our children wonderfully! We have had 2 children at the nursery and honestly could not rave about the team enough. So approachable, child centred approaches with an emphasis on play which has been fantastic for my kids development! I also most importantly feel that
my child is SAFE in their care!

Can't praise KLN enough for its friendly staff and wonderful outdoor space encouraging children's love of nature and exploring. Our little girl has grown so much in confidence since starting and we always pick her up with a smile on her face.

My daughter started at Kids Love Nature in November and, after an initial settling in period, has really thrived there. She is able to access a wonderful balance of allotment/garden/art/yoga/stories/learning activities. The communication with the staff is excellent and all questions are answered
promptly and clearly. The opportunities for parents to visit on family days is also really nice. We are very happy!

Amazing. My daughter really enjoys herself and staff really help with her development. Staff are attentive and she says they are her friends which is a great view for her to have.
Weakness. Report should be daily. Bi weekly is not good enough for this age group.

This nursery is absolutely fantastic. My daughter, who is now in school, still talks about her time at nursery and wishes she could go back! The staff are amazing with the children, building genuine connections that show through each interaction. For example when picking my son up, they all talk to
my daughter, asking how she's doing and she loves to keep in touch with them. They keep parents well informed on your child's development, any concerns they have and help give advice when parents have concerns themselves. The management are very approachable, friendly and kind to both the children and parents. Both my children love(d) this nursery, and I couldnt have wished for a better setting for them!

Great nursery with lovely staff and amazing outdoor space. They do an array of activities with the children, spend a lot of time playing outside and learning about nature. Staff is very helpful and always willing to improve. Both my kids love the setting.

The old victorian school that houses the nursery with space for crafting, playing, quiet time, yoga, obstacle courses and a huge sandpit is just amazing, the orchard, vegetable garden with a full time gardener, the time the kids spend outside every day, all of that is full five stars and simply
amazing. However, the staff is what makes KidsLoveNature in Lytchett Minster truly wonderful. They are loving, caring, they are really engaged with the kids and all they get up to in the day. We joined after moving from Buckinghamshire where we were at another great nursery, but we would never leave KLN, it is a great place for kids and our daughter usually comes out with a big smile on her face at the end of the day and returns with one the next morning.

We transitioned from a nursery to this kindergarten due to a relocation. I couldn't have been happier with how my daughter has been supported by the staff. It was a tricky time but she seems to have settled in amazingly well and seems to be thriving.

My son started attending this nursery from the age of 1 and he has loved it since day one. The nature element of learning has really helped my son develop so many new skills and he loves going over to the allotment to water the plants and harvest the vegetables with the gardener. My son is happy and
confident going into nursery to play with his friends and I can be rest assured knowing that whilst I am at work he is enjoying his day. He is really well supported throughout his journey here by his fantastic key worker and I am regularly updated of his progress via the app. The nursery hold regular Q&A sessions via video chat with a child development specialist covering a wide range of topics which I have found to be really useful and informative. The staff here are a great team and work tirelessly to make nursery a fun and happy place. Thank you!

parents and children. Nothing to too much trouble and I love going to work knowing my daughter is having a great day! Highly highly recommend this nursery!

My daughter has been going here since she was one and she has thrived. The ethos and the way in which they approach learning is fantastic and evidence-based. Their outdoor environment is beautiful and allows for a real hands-on learning experience. My daughter loves attending and has built great
relationships with staff and other children.

My son has just started and has settled in beautifully. The staff have been amazing and he loves going already. I love being able to see what he gets up to so a few more pictures would be lovely. The food sounds really varied and nutritious.

Super helpful and friendly staff with boundless energy for all the fantastic activities enjoyed by the children. Our son loves his days at the kindergarten. Thank you.

I couldn't be happier with Kids Love Nature. My son has been going since he was 1.5 years and he's nearly 4. I am going to be sad when he has to leave for school in September. Kids Love Nature is the most amazing place! The staff, the setting, the allotment, the time spent outdoors in nature, the
yoga and the food, just everything is amazing. Going to nursery there has helped him grow into the most amazing, kind and caring child. If I could keep him in that environment for his whole school years, I would. It's the best!
31 March 2023
Our son has been going to Kids Love Nature Kindergarten at Lytchett Minster for two years and absolutely loves it. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, the facilities are excellent, and we know he is in safe hands. We’re so thankful he has had the opportunity to start his education here.

My daughter absolutely loves attending Kids love Nature Kindergarten.
She comes out every day full of beans and has always had a full day of different activities.
The allotment is fantastic and all the children get an opportunity to plant things and help them grow.
The staff are so friendly and
approachable, they are always happy to help with any inquiry and are there to offer support and advice for any parental challenges.
I can't recommend the nursery highly enough, it's a fantastic environment for children to develop, be creative and confident.

Warm, welcoming and happy. My daughter is so excited to get to school in the morning. Nothing but good things to say about this place, my daughter is learning so much and making great friends along the way.

I am overall very happy with Kids Love Nature Kindergarten at Lytchett Minster. Even my little one asks to go into the nursery. I think the staff work very hard to achieve every kid's emotional and learning needs. I love how kids are being made aware of their environment through play. My little one
often comes home with some new vocabulary and lots of fun stories of what they have been up to during the day.
27 April 2022
Our daughter has been attending Kids Love Nature in Lytchett Minster for 6-months. It's a nurturing, fun and very happy place staffed by a team that genuinely cares about the children's growth, development and sense of self.
From spending time in the allotments, nature walks, yoga, and feeding the
resident ducks through to planting vegetables in the poly-tunnels, many of the activities are geared towards outdoor learning and the world around them. Meals are healthy, largely vegetarian with many ingredients 'kindergarten grown'. Messy, creative play is encouraged with arts, crafts and water-based activities meaning spare clothes and shoes are essential. I feel confident that our daughter is really developing her social skills, learning something new every day via activities we would struggle to replicate at home (or in any other nursery setting). The Ofsted outstanding rating is richly deserved with credit to the team for their boundless energy, fun and creativity.
