This Kiddi Caru nursery is located in the heart of the Whiteley Community Centre, next to the primary school. They offer flexible childcare for all families plus free childcare for all three and four-year-olds, as well as school days and a 45-week option, allowing you to take the summer holiday off with no childcare costs.

They understand that, as a parent, you have a million things to do and prepare for your child every morning. So, they were hoping to ease your daily routine by taking care of nappies for your little one whilst they are at nursery.

The nursery is proud of its well-resourced, age-appropriate playrooms, offering a wide and exciting range of learning experiences. Children are encouraged to learn through play and to follow their own interests. All educational activities are planned by the highly trained Early Years Practitioners. They have an amazing sensory room which is even used by external childcare services, an area that creates a calm learning environment.

Ask about the nursery's all-inclusive activity programme which is delivered by its very own staff and includes Sing & Sign, Boogie Mites; all fun activities with lots of educational benefits which the children love to do throughout the week.

The wholesome food is prepared fresh and daily by the onsite chef and caters for all stages from weaning to older children serving themselves to encourage independence.

Your little one is in very safe hands, not just within the secure environment which includes a double door entry system, but with the staff team all paediatric first aid trained and regularly attend training courses.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

This is our second child to finish their nursery/pre-school experience at Kiddi Caru Whiteley. She has attended since 8 months old and we have been incredibly pleased by her time there. She has loved each key-worker and they in turn have become friends. Cannot find anything negative with our experience.
After a total of 6 years of using this nursery we are sad to be parting company with them as our child starts school.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

We have 2 boys that attend Fareham (Whiteley) Kiddi Caru (20 months and 4 1/2 yrs). The oldest is leaving shortly to go to "big school".
The staff are very dedicated and professional yet caring, friendly and conscientious. They cater for all our sons needs in the warm, welcoming and safe environment.
There
is never any problem in the mornings when we drop them off, which just shows that they really do love their time there.
They are getting a really great start in life and it is lovely to see their confidence, knowledge and experiences growing so quickly.
The facilities are fantastic and are appropriate the age range in the rooms.
The outdoors space is also fantastic and our boys love it when the meet up with each other outside.


They will miss Kiddi Caru greatly when they leave.
You all have our thanks!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.515)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.515) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Whiteley 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 4.7 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 4.843 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Whiteley is calculated as follows: ( (188 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.843

  • 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 4.672 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Whiteley 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 134 number of registered child places is 26.8. 18 Positive Reviews ÷ 26.8 = 0.672

  • 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.
