Kinderkare MCS has been brilliant since my daughter joined 18 months ago. They provide regular updates and photos alongside comprehensive details on her progression. All the staff have been amazing from the outset regardless of her key worker. I couldn’t recommend them more highly!

After sending my eldest to Kinderkare a decade ago, it made sense to send my toddlers here too! Staff are wonderful, kind, caring, polite, understanding, supportive and great communicators. The nursery is clean and organised. My children are supported with age-appropriate learning and really enjoy their
sessions. The chef is brilliant - able to cater for all dietary needs and requirements, making further adjustments where necessary.
I couldn't imagine sending my children anywhere else!

My daughter has been at Kinderkare for 1.5 years now, and I would not send her anywhere else. The staff are absolutely fantastic; they know each child individually (regardless of whether or not they are in their room) and tailor their support to the personality of each child. They are brilliant at communicating
with parents and approachable should you have any questions. I feel lucky to have found such a lovely place.

My daughter has been going for a couple of years, and they know her well. She feels comfortable with all staff members who are caring and nurturing. The nursery nurses noticed that she fell more than the other children, and when a physiotherapist observed her activity-based play and read the nursery
nurses' observations, a diagnosis of flexible joints was given. The physiotherapist was very impressed by the observations and early pick-up of the issue.
The professionalism of all staff is very impressive, and my daughter is very happy going into the nursery with any member of the team. She often sings the songs she has learnt from nursery when we are out and about. I love reading about what she does during the day on their online journal, and we have many pieces of her artwork on the wall.
She has made some good friends at the nursery, and I go to work knowing that she is happy.

Both our children started at Kinderkare in the baby room and moved up through to the preschool room.
Our children flourished throughout their time at Kinderkare with the help of all the kind, supportive and knowledgeable team there.
Our youngest starts school in September, and it will be the end
of a very special era - my husband and I are very grateful to all the team at Kinderkare for taking such great care of our children over the last four years.

Brilliant nursery. Staff are amazing; they are really caring and take their time to get to know him as an individual. Our son loves going there, and whilst sometimes he doesn’t want to leave his parents, we pick him up at the end of the day and he is buzzing. They do lots of activities to keep him entertained,
and we have seen a huge amount of development from him since he’s been going. I can’t recommend them enough.

We have been so impressed by the manager and all of the other wonderful staff at Kinderkare over the past two years. Our little one is so excited to go in each day, and we love hearing about what they have learned when we pick them up. They have been so flexible with helping with any requests we have
made, including allergies, changes to hours, etc. Also, always so quick to respond to communication, which is excellent. The team are clearly highly skilled at supporting children to reach their milestones, learn and have fun, and we can't rate them highly enough. A big thanks to the whole team; you really are amazing!

My daughter loves going to nursery. The staff are lovely, caring and very knowledgeable. She has learnt so much with them, and I am well informed of her progress. I love that they find garden play extremely important and being in the great outdoors. My daughter has been to this nursery for over a year
now, and she is excited to move into the 2+ class!

Amazing nursery!
Amazing staff!
My girl is running to nursery every morning.
English is not our first language, but she never felt uncomfortable.
All teachers are so caring.
We are lucky to get a place there.

Being a first-time mum and trying to navigate the best for my child, Kinderkare was the best decision I made for my child’s education and growth. They made each step into giving my child the best possible and have been a fantastic support to me and my child.

I chose to walk further past two other nurseries to take my child to Kinderkare, and it was the best decision. The staff are very professional, and this is shown through my child enjoying her time learning and making new friends both with other children and the staff.

My little one has been attending Kinderkare for the last nine months, and I have been thrilled about the way they have settled into nursery life. The staff have been brilliant every step of the way, easing my anxiety at leaving them at the beginning of their journey and praising and developing my child's
skills along the way. You can tell that each of the staff, I have come across, genuinely enjoys their jobs and looking after the children, and my child has come on leaps and bounds since they joined.
I can not thank them enough and would recommend them every time.

Love this nursery and will be sad to leave when my son starts school in September this year. The staff are brilliant, no issues with my son going in each morning. We are kept up to date with what goes on via the app.
Such a friendly place where my son feels happy and learns so much. I highly recommend
this setting and will continue to do so once we leave at the end of the summer term.

Our boy loves his time at nursery. He does lots of activities and eats a wide range of different foods. He talks to us about what he does and who he likes playing with. Really happy we chose this nursery.

Our twin boys have attended Kinderkare MCS since June 2020. We are very sad that they have to leave to go to school in September. They come home with new skills, knowledge and stories of the adventures they have had every day they attend! All the staff are lovely and have taken the time to get to know
our children. They provide regular updates on the online learning journal, mostly including ones specific to our children. One of our boys has a learning delay and therefore needs additional care. We could not be happier with how Kinderkare MCS have provided this additional care including regular team around the family meetings.

Kinderkare have been amazing with our twin boys. They really love going and have come on leaps and bounds. They have developed really good relationships with their key workers. One of the boys has additional needs and they have been very proactive in supporting him. Kinderkare is a friendly small preschool
and nursery and I feel they have gone above and beyond in supporting my children.

As a new parent deciding on a nursery is a difficult decision. When we looked around Kinderkare we were super impressed by the facilities, the staff and the catering. Out little girl now goes to Kinderkare, and they have worked tirelessly with us to adapt to her disabilities. As a parent of a disabled
child, we were not even sure she could attend nursey but the team have done everything to include my daughter into all activities and for that I am very thankful. All the staff are great, excellent communication skills and willing to answer any questions we may have. I highly recommend Kinderkare, as I can leave my daughter knowing she is in a safe and happy environment.

Really lovely friendly nursery with wonderful staff! Engage really with all of the children. Our little girl loves her keyworker in the baby room, she's been incredible with her. They do lots of different activities with them and we love seeing what she's been up to on the parent app.

Our daughter started at Kinderkare in April and loved it from the moment she walked in. She immediately bonded with her key worker and the other adults in the room and throughout the nursery. Her lovely workers kept me well-informed with how she was doing and really took the time to get to know her.
Each day, she comes home very happy. The food is healthy and very tasty and I love the way that the children sit together around the table for their snacks and lunch. There is always a range of activities for the children to do and lots of opportunities for stories, singing and dancing. I love listening to the new songs and stories she learns when she gets home. Thanks for everything you do Kinderkare team!

My grandson has attended Kinderkare Nursery for the last eighteen months. He has been eager to go every morning and is very happy there. He had very little experience of being with other children but he settled in remarkably well thanks to the care and understanding of the staff. He has come on so well
in so many ways and we have been very pleased that the nursery takes such trouble to keep us in touch with his activities.
I would say that Kinderkare is a five star nursery and would recommend it as such.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.988)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.988) out of 10 for Kinderkare MCS is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.988 for Kinderkare MCS is calculated as follows: ( (329 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 333 Ratings = 4.988

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kinderkare MCS is based on 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 69 number of registered child places is 13.8, which has been reached with 28 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
