I really do rate this nursery! The staff are so welcoming and brilliant with children. I only really know the Bumblebee staff, but even when walking through all the staff say 'hello' and acknowledge you - which is lovely. You can really tell they care about the children and their welfare and wellbeing

always comes first. I feel reassured and relaxed leaving my daughter here when I go to work.

Overall Experience

The new addition to the team has definitely made a major positive change. I refer to the new ideas brought, activities and most importantly parents being updated almost daily with pictures, descriptions of certain activities or games. Also, I like that new staff has been assigned in the room bringing

warmth, compassion and positive vibes, making transition for my little one much easier and enjoyable.

Overall Experience

My son started at Kiddi Caru in January 2022 at 9 months old. Since the first day we visited I knew this was the right setting for him. He has made many friends and connections with the ladies in each room. Now he is 3 and still thriving at nursery and learning new things each day he attends. We have

no plans of moving him until he goes to reception as we are happy with the level of care the setting provides! The price of a full day is a bit expensive but you definitely get what you pay for and as long as my son is happy it’s a price I’m willing to pay!

I can honestly say, I was a little worried about my little one starting, and it has not been an easy start but can say, that she has settled so well there and is really enjoying going in. The young deputy manager who works there, is always so welcoming and very pleasant, friendly and supportive.

My daughter has only started Kiddi Caru Nursery beginning of May, she is 17 months, she seems to enjoy it, quite bubbly for most of evening at home after, full of energy too. The nursery seems nicely presented with the different areas for different children ages. Clean, friendly staff. Good play area

outside for children too.

Overall Experience

My toddler has been with Kiddi Caru since she was 7 months old and has always loved nursery and the practitioners. Despite historical staffing issues the ladies who run the rooms all seem to genuinely love working with children and my toddler has developed really lovely relationships with her regular

carers. The nursery has been really helpful in assisting with multiple allergies and done well to assure me as a mum that my toddler is well taken care of at meal times. My toddler is always happy to see different activities set up in the morning and loves the outside space and occasional trip out of the nursery. We're really happy with our choice of nursery and whilst costs for childcare are high they are very transparent about costs and their standard of care is worth it.

Overall Experience

My son has only been there for two months and I’m already not happy with the setting. Every time I’ve gone to pick him up, I have had the nursery staff complain to me that he hasn’t been listening and keeps running in the room, bearing in mind he is only 2 and doesn’t understand what he’s doing wrong.

I have also felt judged as a parent as I had been told that they think I’m not telling him to stop when he’s at home which is completely wrong of them to think that. I just feel the staff are very negative when it comes to feedback and I don’t enjoy picking him up as I’m worried of what I’m going to be told on collection. My son has also come running up to me with a wet top on which I feel they could have changed his top on a few occasions. I have to ask the staff what my son's had at meal times as sometimes they haven’t put them on the app which is what it’s meant to be there for.

My daughter always goes happily to all the practitioners at drop-off. Always happy to see familiar faces. At pick up always happy, and smiling, and practitioners always say what happened throughout the day. Really appreciate the use of the app. You can see all the updates as soon as they happen. I can

definitely see the positive change in my daughter after coming to the nursery. She has learned a lot from the practitioners and also from other children.

Silks Farm is a fantastic nursery, in a lovely setting with fantastic, caring and compassionate staff. My little boy has thrived here and loves all of his teachers. The outside space is fab too. I couldn't have asked for a better nursery experience. We moved out of the area recently, and it was a very

sad day when we said our Goodbyes! Thank you for everything, Silks Farm team!

Overall Experience

The teams that have looked after my daughters have been amazing, so helpful and caring. I would easily give them five stars. Both my daughters have enjoyed their time there and have really benefitted developmentally. The location of the nursery is great, out in the countryside and with access to nature.

The administration, however, and overall nursery policies are sadly what let it down. I have struggled to get places for my daughters on days other than Monday and Friday, and that’s most likely because you are charged the full fee for bank holidays - even though the nursery isn’t even open. This is instead of spreading the cost equally across all attendees. I have also had to contact the nursery on a couple of occasions to sort out miscalculated invoices and settling-in plans. At times, it feels like the parents are asked to be flexible (eg when there are unexpected staff shortages), but this flexibility is not returned. Overall, I would still recommend it, but things could be improved.

My daughter loves going to nursery every day and is even sad to leave when it’s collection time, which tells you everything you need to know. She has the most incredible carers in the bumblebee room, whom she adores. Very rarely does she cry when I drop her off. She come on leaps and bounds since being

at nursery, and I’m very happy with everything to date. My only comment is I would like to see more creative messy play in the baby room, but aside from that, 10/10.

My daughter has been going to nursery since she was 9nine months old - she will be three in August.
The care she receives not just from her key worker, but all members of the team is impeccable.
They go out on little walks to the forest school; they do lots of activities, singing, dancing and teaching

sign language.
All children are well looked after, and I feel my daughter is safe in the environment.
