Kloisters Kindergarten & Pre-School

Overall Experience

I've had a child in Kloisters since 2019, and both my girls have loved coming here. My youngest has been through baby room, and kindergarten and is now in preschool. The staff are absolutely wonderful and cannot do enough for the children, nothing is ever too much. My girl has allergies and they cater

to her perfectly so she never misses out. You know your child is happy when they ask for the staff and their friends even at home. We will be sad to leave this year. Thank you for all you do.

Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at Kloisters Kindergarten & Pre-School

Thank you so much for your kind words. We're delighted to hear that your youngest has had such a positive journey through each room and that our team has been able to provide the care, attention, and support she needs, especially in catering to her allergies.

Review of
Prima Montessori & Day Nursery

Overall Experience

I moved my daughter from another nursery where she wasn't happy to Prima. The staff were so welcoming and made her feel safe, happy and welcome. The children also made her feel welcome which I think is down to the work the staff put in. They are open early and close late and are happy for you to drop

off and collect anytime within the opening times. They feed the children decent food and give them a choice of various activities to do during the day, which is all updated on the app.
I wish I had my daughter here sooner so she got the full benefit of going here for years.

Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at Prima Montessori & Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear how happy your daughter is at Prima and that she feels safe, welcomed, and engaged. It's our mission to create a nurturing environment where every child can thrive, and it means so much to us to know we've made a positive difference for your family.

Overall Experience

Both my sons have gone to Kloisters, with one still being there. The staff are always caring, and friendly and it shows that they know each child. My youngest has severe food allergies and all the staff have taken his needs on board and always ensure his safety, whilst making sure he is always included.

My eldest thrived at Kloisters which has enabled him to start school with communication and learning skills, which has meant he has had a smooth transition. I know that when I drop my son off at Kloisters he will have a fun day!

Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at Kloisters Kindergarten & Pre-School

Thank you for your kind words. It's heart warming to hear how the team's attentiveness and care have positively impacted both of your sons. We are delighted you feel the nursery provides a safe, nurturing environment where children thrive.

The team at Little Explorers are just so wonderful! They have always gone above and beyond to support and develop our little one. They are very knowledgeable and experienced. They have a wonderful rapport with the children which reassured us from day one. They are by far the best nursery we have sent

our daughter to and greatly deserve the 'Outstanding' grading from Ofsted. Thank you!

Overall Experience

My child has been at this nursery for two years after being turned down by other nurseries due to her disabilities.
I just want to say what an amazing and nurturing nursery this has been for my little girl. She unfortunately is unable to walk or stand up and that hasn't stopped this nursery from helping

her and encouraging her to be more independent. All the staff are a credit and a special shout out to the staff who have done nothing but be supportive and helpful to my child. It's been heartbreaking to say goodbye but I will definitely keep you all updated with her progress going into primary school.
Thank you again so much.

Reply from Sonny, Marketing at Kloisters Kindergarten & Pre-School

This review touched our hearts- thank you for sharing your experience. Supporting your little girl and watching her grow has been such a privilege. We are so proud of her progress and the independence she has gained. Our team is deeply committed to providing a nurturing environment for every child, and your words remind us why we do what we do. Wishing her all the best in primary school- please do keep in touch with her journey. We'll be cheering her on!

My daughter has been attending Kloisters for 4 years now. Cannot be more grateful for the care and support. What makes this nursery amazing is the staff. They are professional, knowledgeable and so attentive. The manager's office door is always open-literally and the girls are always happy to answer

any questions (with a smile). You feel that staff have the time to discuss and talk to you. In this day and age, it is rare for professionals not to rush. They have organised so many fantastic family events. Kloisters are truly an amazing nursery which provides the perfect nurturing environment.

Kloisters Kindergarten is an excellent childcare provider with great leadership and staff. They remain respectful and open to communication. I get regular updates and pictures.

Overall Experience

We chose this nursery over two years ago and visited another between then and our daughter starting, which was far closer to our house and great, but didn't compare. Having just completed our first term I would highly recommend Prima Montessori. We have asked 100 questions (maybe more) and had a variety

of challenges but everything has been handled with a personal touch, a positive attitude and a very open mind. Whether it's what to feed your child or helping them settle, everything is done with your and even your parenting preferences in mind. We look forward to next term.

Reply from Sonny, Marketing at Prima Montessori & Day Nursery

Thank you for such a thoughtful review! We're thrilled that you chose us after careful consideration and are delighted that your experience has been so positive. We know how important it is to address every question and challenge with care and it's great to hear that you've felt supported every step of the way. We're excited to continue this journey with your daughter and are looking forward to another term filled with growth and joy!

I am thoroughly impressed with this nursery. My son has been attending for a few weeks now and he absolutely loves it. The staff are excellent with him, providing me with peace of mind knowing he is well cared for. They offer a diverse range of meals, encouraging the children to explore different flavours

and keep them engaged with various activities that foster their curiosity and learning. Every staff member I've met has been incredibly welcoming and genuinely friendly.

Overall Experience

We found Little Explorers after a false start with another nursery. From day one, it's been an exceptional experience all around. The induction was brilliant, my son was happy and I was left feeling confident that he would be safe and well cared for. The senior staff know all the children by name and

are happy to stop and have a chat and I love that so many staff across all the rooms are involved in the children's care. My son is quite full-on for his age and I've appreciated the ongoing conversation with the team about ways to manage various behaviours. His social skills, motor skills, problem-solving and communication have all developed noticeably as a result of the support he has had at Little Explorers. The team have gone out of their way to accommodate us when I've needed additional hours at short notice (they can't always do this, but have been very helpful). We are absolutely delighted to have found Little Explorers and consider ourselves very lucky to have a place here.

Reply from Sonny, Marketing at Little Explorers

We're overjoyed that you found Little Explorers to be such a positive experience after your initial nursery search. It's fantastic to hear how your son's skills have blossomed with our support. Our team loves getting involved and making personal connections with every child. We're delighted to accommodate your needs whenever possible. Thank you for sharing your delightful journey with us!
