Leaving your child in someone else's care is difficult so seeing him excited to be dropped off every morning is a testament to the genuine care the staff here give. They have many initiatives to promote each child's culture and have staff that encourage our bilingual son's language development. There
are always fun relevant activities planned as part of the curriculum and everything is well communicated to parents ahead of time including updates as to meals, naps and regular photos.

Reply from Grace Taylor, Marketing and Advertising Manager at Kido St Patrick's

Kido St. Patrick's have played a key role in developing our daughter into the bright young girl she is today and I can see the same positive effect the nursery is having on our son. I can speak on the activities, the facilities and many other outstanding parts of the nursery but I want to highlight
the genuine care provided by the staff, both new and old. I get the sense that they give their best every day and really care about their work in nurturing the kids. We couldn't ask for much more!

Kido St Patrick's provided incredible care and unmatched education to my son. The staff's dedication played a crucial role in his development.
From teaching essential skills to nurturing an interest in 3 languages to fostering compassion, his horizons were surely broadened at nursery.
The app is amazing,
providing detailed updates. The only area where I see a scope for improvement is the lack of outings.

We couldn't be happier with St Patrick's. The staff are wonderful - kind and nurturing - and I feel they genuinely care for my children.
My children are so happy there and have developed so much. They do so many excellent activities - French, messy play, singing, dancing and science topics.

Our daughter started at St Patrick's a year ago. It was amazing how fast our 2 years old settled in. She adopted and loved her key worker and the wider team from day 1. Our daughter always comes home with a big smile telling us all the great things she did or they did for her. Recently we told them
about her French favorite song and they played it for her. She was over the moon and talked about it for days! She also regularly brings home some very beautiful artwork. As parents, we feel that the team of St Patrick's is on top of everything. They communicate extremely well and are friendly, professional and thoughtful. They never hesitated to try to help us with personal challenges when they could. The experience of St Patrick's doesn't stop at their door, our daughter took a little teddy on holiday and has brought books home. They organise events for parents to meet the team and other parents during which the kids are proud to show us around. I strongly recommend this nursery, you won't be disappointed.

I toured nurseries in the area when I was pregnant and selected a spot a St. Patrick's knowing I would have to take my 6-month-old there at the end of my maternity leave. Even though as an expectant first-time mother I didn't know what to look for, enrolling my son there was, in retrospect, an incredible
decision. Both the baby room lead and my son's key worker were key in ensuring a smooth transition into nursery. My son was able to form a really meaningful attachment to his key worker, which left me in peace knowing that if he were ever upset or in need of anything, he would have her to rely on. I appreciate that they replicate the routine we had at home, and partnered with me in tweaking the routine as his needs evolved. Their curriculum seems really well thought out and my son finds it stimulating. He has truly thrived since joining. The team at St. Patrick's has my full trust and I recommend them without hesitation.

Kido St Patrick's Waterloo is the first pre-school my twin daughters have attended. My experience so far has been excellent! The team have been so considerate and caring towards my daughters and have made their transition to school very comfortable. The teachers and the management team are meticulous
with the care plan towards the children and provide a wonderful experience for the parent and the child. I would highly recommend this pre-school.

St Patrick’s is a lovely, caring place for your child and the staff really do go the extra mile to settle your child, welcome you as a parent and keep you updated on their progress. They are kind, patient and flexible.


Staff work really hard to plan fantastic activities and to relate these to the

world children are growing up in.

Overall St Patrick’s is great, their facilities are fantastic, lots of space and material.


Their garden is superb as well. They organise a lot of activities for the children and have very nice initiatives.


Teachers and management are friendly, attentive and welcoming, and keep you up to date

about everything.


They have an in house chef which is a big plus, as well as language learning lessons for the older children.


My little one loves being there and has bonded well with his teachers and peers.


I am certainly very pleased with St Patrick’s nursery, I hope they continue with the excellent work they do!

A fabulous nursery, I highly recommend it to families and friends. My daughter is currently attending Kido St. Patrick’s Montessori nursery in Waterloo since September. I am impressed with how quickly she settled. She has formed strong bonds with the staff and especially with her key worker. The management
team are so friendly to talk to and the staff are so kind and caring. The activities are great and the food is amazing. They send me daily feedback through the parent app. It is easy to see her daily routine such as eating, naps, activities...etc. Being able to see photos of her in the nursery is wonderful!

I cannot recommend St Patrick's Montessori Nursery School enough. Our daughter went here since the age of 1 and has loved every minute of it. The staff in the Bakerloo (youngest children) room is very knowledgable, caring and consistent. Over her time at the nursery, our daughter has built a strong
bond with all carers and in particular her dedicated carer. Equally, as parents, the staff have always been attentive to our request. The nursery management is superb. On the ball, clear, flexible. The rooms are lovely and so is the outside space which is big and full of wonder for the little ones. St Patrick's has set the bar very high in my search for a new nursery in our new area and I’d highly recommend them to anyone, any day!

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.806)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.806) out of 10 for Kido St Patrick's is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 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 4.831 for Kido St Patrick's is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.831

  • 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 3.975 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kido St Patrick's is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.375

  • 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.
