Excellent nursery, which both my children have attended. Staff are very friendly and show great interest in the children. The children always come out with a smile on their faces, having been very active both inside and out the whole day. Great preschool learning environment, and the children especially enjoyed learning sign language. Overall, a great place for your child to grow and learn ahead of primary school.

My personal experience with RAFA Kidz Odiham has been positive all round. The care given, the attention to detail, the compassion of staff towards the children heartwarming. The environment reflects positivity, encouragement and support for the children giving them an excellent start in life. Thank you all for the time and attention you are giving to the children.

A fantastic nursery with such welcoming, professional and nurturing staff! Everyone that works here has such a good heart and knows every child individually. Our little one thrived here! We went from him being reluctant to going to childcare to walking without a look over his shoulder and asking to go back to pre school every day within a week of him joining! All thanks to the staff here! Communication is excellent via the app, phone calls if necessary and parents evening and a real open door policy. We are devastated our little one had to leave due to a posting and have found to hard to find a nursery remotely close to RAFA Kidz Odiham!

It is difficult to explain with words how important Rafa Kidz is for us and the impact their work has on our children. Their confidence and abilities have grown exponentially, and this is all down to the staff who spend time getting to know them individually and embracing their characters. Their import will help shape them for a lifetime, and we are forever grateful for that. Thank you for your time, energy and all the fun.

My daughter has been attending RAFA Kidz Odiham for almost 4 years and it is an excellent nursery. The leadership sets a high standard and the staff work hard to maintain these high standards. The whole team are particularly good at dealing with tricky family situations such as long overseas deployments and illness, where they offer an understanding and flexibility that most other nurseries just can't. All staff members are friendly and approachable and my daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her time there. They have helped shape her into the independent and confident girl she is now, and prepared her very well for school. It's also very good value for money!

The RAFA Kidz Team at Odiham has been lovely. All the staff are friendly and professional. They put effort in knowing each and every kid, which is such a great touch in itself. The communication on the app has been good and up to date. Handovers during pick up has been great. A huge thank you to the team for making the preschool experience amazing for our little one.

My granddaughter has attended RAFA Kidz Odiham for nearly two years in the preschool class, and we couldn't be happier. All the staff are warm, caring, and professional, creating a nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and excited to learn. She has grown so much in confidence, independence, and social skills. What really stands out is the brilliant focus on emotional learning and empathy, children are encouraged to understand their feelings, express themselves in healthy ways and develop kindness and consideration for others. The setting is well-equipped, and full of fun, enriching activities, whether it's messy play, storytelling, imaginative role play, or outdoor exploration, there's always something exciting going on. Communication with families is excellent, and it's clear that every child is truly known and cared for. I'm so grateful for the positive start RAFA Kidz has given my granddaughter and highly recommend it to other families.

Staff are consistently helpful and friendly. They adopt a collaborative approach with us as parents to address any issues and advise methods to aid our child's development at home or within the nursery. We recommend RAFA Kidz Odiham to our friends who join the area with nursery aged children.

Our son has been attending RAFA Kidz Odiham for over a year, and we couldn't be happier with the care and support he receives. The staff are incredibly nurturing, creating a warm and welcoming environment where he feels safe and happy every day. One of the biggest changes we've noticed is how much his vocabulary has grown. He constantly surprises us with new words and phrases, and it's clear that the engaging activities and interactions at the nursery have played a huge role in his development. He absolutely loves all the activities they provide, from creative arts and messy play to outdoor adventures and story time. It's wonderful to see him so excited to go in every morning, knowing he's learning, exploring, and having fun with his friends. We're so grateful to the amazing team and for their dedication and care. We highly recommend them to any parent looking for a fantastic early years setting.

I can't recommend RAFA Kidz Odiham nursery enough! The staff (front and back of house) are fantastic- they all (even staff I don't know) greet my son by name, and with genuine warmth and enthusiasm, every time they see him. They are also so helpful (a recent example is one of the ladies in the office helping us with the government childcare scheme) and plan such lovely and varied things to do with the children. The menu is varied and they cater for my son's dietary requirements. My son always eats all of his meals each day. The outside space is lovely, filled with lots of toys and things to do, and even in the winter they wrap the children up and either play with them outside (which I love) or take them for a walk- I love that my son gets fresh air and plays outside. My son is just under 2 (has attended full-time for 10 months) and is always excited to walk in each day, waving and smiling at the staff, which I think speaks volumes. I am so grateful for all they do. Thank you!

RAFA Kidz Nursery is absolutely amazing and my daughter loves it. The staff are so friendly and communicative! My child is developing her social skills and naps more regularly since starting. She loves getting ready in the morning to go!

RAFA Kidz is a brilliant nursery. The nursery staff including management, admin and the nursery chef are caring, attentive and know the children well. Our children have loved the varied and engaging activities at the nursery. It is clear that a lot of thought, time and effort is put into making learning fun while supporting each child's individual development. We have felt part of a family with all of the nursery team and have felt very supported by them. We would highly recommend RAFA Kidz Odiham to anyone looking for a nursery in the area and we feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful, caring and happy environment for our children.

Rafa Kidz is a brilliant nursery. Our daughter has thrived at this nursery. Attending since she was 10 months old until starting school they have supported and nurtured her through the years. We are a military family and they have been fabulous. All the staff are friendly and approachable. My daughter loves the nursery so much! I would recommend Rafa Kidz at Odiham over and over again!

My eldest daughter has been with Rafa Kidz Odiham since 2020 and has absolutely loved her time there. We have watched the nursery grow and develop into a wonderful, nurturing and fun environment for the children. The staff are all so lovely and caring and really have become an extension of our family for both of our girls. My youngest can't wait to get out of the house every morning and excitedly runs into the nursery as soon as she sees the door. Both my daughters have grown so much emotionally, academically and socially, all with the help of the amazing staff and the environment!

Lovely staff, warm and friendly. My daughter loves cuddles and lots of interactive play. A real family environment. On sunny days they spend lots of time outdoors running around and playing. Wet days are filled with fun activities (which are well thought out and varied) and lots of exploration.

I have put my 20-month-old and 6-month-old into Rafa Kidz and I have had nothing but confidence in the care that my children receive. I have had nothing but great experiences with the team and management, all of my and my children’s needs have been met. Could not recommend enough!

RAFA Kidz is a lovely nursery for both children and adults. All staff are very polite and take the time to make you feel welcome. My child is developing more and more by the day, and the staff are always very excited to tell me what milestones have been reached, who she has been playing with and what activities she has been up to. I would highly recommend this nursery to everyone. My daughter loves going and seeing all her friends and the staff.

Our son has settled brilliantly and we firmly believe this is down to the staff. They have enhanced his confidence and we have watched him flourish. Potty training during week was not the best timing but the staff were supportive and he did very well. He is engaging in learning and getting more independent by the week.

Absolutely fantastic nursery with the most caring staff, they have made us feel welcomed as a family from the moment we stepped foot in the nursery and our boys have felt like part of the RAFA Kidz family. Would love to thank each and every caring person that makes RAFA Kidz Odiham the amazing, happy place that it is! Thank you.

My children have been attending RAFA Kidz for years. Sadly my youngest has just finished as she gets ready for school. The staff were so kind to give up their Saturday morning to put on a fantastic graduation party for the children and families. The staff at RAFA Kidz are wonderful. So kind and helpful. Always going out of their way to help and provide a wonderful experience for the children. I am sad that our RAFA Kidz journey has come to an end but will look back on it with a smile.
