No. 1 nursery in the area.
Staff really helpful. Me and my daughter we’re from Poland, and we recently moved to the UK.
From day one, when I inquired about my daughter's space, they helped me with everything.
Great activities and the kids really enjoying them.

I am very happy that I chose the right nursery for my child. I feel very satisfied knowing that my daughter is happy every time she goes to Kindred. She looks forward to it. As a mom, I forgot all my worries.

My daughter has just started at Kindred in Hanwell and is loving it. Quality of care is excellent, food is great and the nursery nurses have been lovely and friendly. The Famly app has also been very useful for photos and updates.

Kindred Hanwell is a very friendly nursery. The staff helped to settle my daughter in brilliantly. It has always been easy to contact the managers if I have any questions, and they always take time to answer them. My daughter looks forward to her days at nursery and always comes home happy.

We have twins attending Kindred and they are always happy to attend the nursery. They really enjoy their time playing outside with good outside toys, trikes and plenty of space to run around. My children have a good relationship with their key workers and are very well looked after, with a stimulating
learning environment that supports their growth and development. Kindred's online system allows reporting of the children's activities and progress, whilst making it easy for parents to oversee the administration of nursery details and fees.

My son has been at Kindred Hanwell since he was 1 and he is nearly now 3. He absolutely loves his time there and is very happy. This was evident during lockdown when he really missed not being there. There is a good mix of activities and outdoor play that stimulates his development.

My son has been at the nursery for 3 weeks and settled almost immediately. He talks about key children and staff within the nursery and absolutely loves the garden. The garden is a wonderful space for the children to be free and enjoy the outdoors. His favourite activity is football and the bikes!
My
wife and I have noticed his communication and language develop so much more as he is around other children.

Our toddler really enjoys her time at Kindred nursery. She settled in quickly and has a strong bond with her key worker, and is developing relationships with the other staff in her room. Because of this we feel confident that she is well cared for. We've noticed her social skills and confidence with
others come along in leaps and bounds.
She spends time outside everyday and is given a good variety of food to eat.

We have overall had a very good experience with our daughter attending Kindred Hanwell. The staff are kind, and welcoming. Our daughter has thrived there in the 2 and a half years or so that she has attended.

My daughter has been at Kindred since she was 10-months-old and is about to start school. She’s loved her time at the nursery - she has enjoyed doing a wide range of activities, gets on well with the staff and has made some great friends. She has developed into a confident, sociable, enquiring and articulate
child, and I think she will settle into school well as a result of her nursery experience.

The restart at the nursery in Hanwell after the lockdown was very smooth and professional. The staff worked on every single detail of government recommendations and guidelines. All very serious such as cleaning re. times staggered pick up and drop-offs, shift patterns and many more. We were very pleased
about being informed since the very beginning. Our feedback and concerns were particularly clarified and addressed, which again was very reassuring. Many thanks to all Hanwell staff.

My son has been at Kindred since he was 2-years-old, he's now 4-years-old. Kindred is a great place with friendly and skilled staff. My son loves to go there, and he has improved on his speaking, listening, sharing and confidence since he started. I feel confident when I leave him there because I know
staff members are taking good care of him.

Our eldest child joined Kindred Hanwell nearly 2 years ago and our youngest child since February. They both love the nursery and are really happy here. The staff are fantastic and have formed a lovely bond with our children and made returning to nursery really easy post lockdown. The facilities are
great with a lovely outside space which is big, considering most London nurseries don't have a huge amount of space. Would highly recommend.

Our son has been at Kindred since January 2019. He settled in very easily, and the staff have always been kind and caring. The nursery is a really friendly and relaxed environment, and the children always seem happy and well looked after. The nursery communicates well with parents/families too.

Our son has been at Kindred since he was 15-months and will be leaving this September to go to school. We are all sad that he’s leaving Kindred!
For him, it has been a wonderful experience, and he has developed lovely bonds with staff and friendships with the children alike. He has learned so much
over the years - it never fails to astound me how much. Social skills, writing, culture, songs, reading.
The staff that I’ve known have been caring, responsive, open and accommodating. For me, the benchmark has always been how happy my son has been, and that was never in question.

We've been so happy with the return to the nursery after lockdown; a difficult time for everyone but made simpler due to Kindred. Our daughter is delighted to be back with her friends and the staff, and Kindred have made the transition so smooth. She loves nursery so much!

My son has been at Kindred (formerly Buttons) since he was seven months old, he is now almost two. Our experience of the nursery in both the baby and toddler room has been really positive. The staff are very positive, and my son looks forwards to his days there. The facilities and equipment are very
good, it is a safe nurturing and happy environment for my child. I highly recommend it.

My daughter attended Buttons Day Nursery since April 2016. The progress she has made and the care she has received is amazing. The staff there are so loving and caring and my daughter enjoyed going to nursery every day. I can’t recommend them enough.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.838)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.838) out of 10 for Kindred Hanwell Nursery and Pre-school 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.838 for Kindred Hanwell Nursery and Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (182 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.838

  • 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 Kindred Hanwell Nursery and Pre-school is based on 18 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 86 number of registered child places is 17.2, which has been reached with 18 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.
