Kiddi Caru is not just a day nursery; it’s a great start in life!

The nursery is bright, homely and spacious with a fantastic outside area for children to enjoy; an environment that is safe and secure.

The welfare of the children in their care is paramount and through an excellent key carer system they are able to ensure that the individual needs of every child are met.

As well as providing all the activities you would expect from a top-quality nursery, they also offer extra curriculum activities such as yoga, French, music and movement and sing and sign. They believe these activities are simply part of their quality brand and should be enjoyed by all children – therefore these programmes are provided at no extra cost.

I find Kiddi Caru a brilliant nursery for my child and I have and still do recommend them to my friends and family. The facilities are very good and make for a fun and safe environment for my child to learn and play in. The staff are very helpful, friendly and attentive, the food is excellent and well
balanced and the organised activities (plays etc.) are great for kids confidence. My son attends another nursery 1 day per week in my local area (for school reasons) and although it is also rated a very good, my wife and I feel it is nowhere near the standard of Kiddi Caru. We make a 30-mile round trip to bring our child to Kiddi Caru for this reason.

Kiddi Caru is an absolutely amazing nursery! My eldest has been going since she was 9 months old (now 2yrs 5 months) and my youngest will be joining in April. All of their staff are so friendly, welcoming and warm and so good with all the children! They are always so descriptive about your child’s day
and whenever I’ve picked my daughter up she’s always happy and never wants to leave. I also feel that since my daughter has been going, she has learnt so much that I may not have been able to teach her which has contributed massively to the little character she is today! They are always doing fun days where you can go in and do activities with your child too which is fantastic! The food they feed the children is great too as it’s always healthy and something different each day. If your child has an accident, their communication skills are amazing and will always contact you as and when it happens. I can’t wait for my little boy to join in April! I would definitely recommend them!

Such a lovely nursery my little boy doesn't want to leave. Very friendly staff and it can be seen how much they love children. Healthy foods and many activities, what more can you ask for when leaving your little one.

Not sure my review can do the Peterborough branch enough justice, however, I cannot recommend this nursery enough! The location is perfect for me and my husband in terms of distance from our work and home. Our daughter started when she was 3 and a half months old and I couldn't have left her in safer
hands. Both the baby room and staff have been amazing from the activities planned each day to the staff advice on teething and weaning. The nursery manager and office staff has also been really supportive going above and beyond at times and again offering advice and tips with our daughter's development. At 10 months our daughter has really benefitted from attending this nursery (5 days full hours) and has a constant smile on her face. The baby room has recently had a makeover which has added to my daughter's delight in exploring the different areas and toys - if you are looking for a nursery on Peterborough I would certainly encourage you to send your child - a home away from home!

I could not recommend Kiddi Caru highly enough. My daughter has been going for nearly a year now and it’s such a tough process for any parent and child but they made it easy for me and their standards have never dropped in fact they work as being the best they can. They are not the least expensive nursery
but absolutely worth every penny. I’ll always be grateful to them for taking such excellent care of my daughter.

We opted for this nursery, as it was highly recommended by friends and colleagues. I have to admit, all the hype is for a reason, and the recent high ratings they have received , is a testimony to that. I'm just glad, we happened to reside in the vicinity, and this nursery became our first choice.

He looks forward to coming every day and has turned into a very polite young man which I put down to our upbringing at home in line with yours at the nursery.


I can only thank you.

My son started nursery in September 2017. From the first day looking around, I could tell that this was a nursery that really had the children's best interests at heart. The office where the manager is, located right next to the door, shows on a daily basis how hands-on and easy it is to talk to everyone.


My son was really hard to settle into the nursery and as a first-time mum, I was really worried, however, the on-going support from staff made this easy. My son always comes home with beautiful artwork or muddy knees and I can tell he always has a fab and busy day!

My son started in November 2017. He has settled into the baby room so well. I am very pleased with the staff and how they are caring towards my son. They have a fantastic range of toys and my son has made a bond with everyone, especially his key worker. His key carer has planned well to suit his needs
and development and have been excellent at supporting our choice to raise our child. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

In the four years we have used Kiddi Caru, we have always been extremely impressed with the efforts made by practitioners to build a strong relationship with our children and us. Nothing has ever been too much trouble and the setting has been a lifeline to us, offering support and encouragement with
everything.
Any issues have been swiftly dealt with and our children have always been very happy in the setting. We would highly recommend Kiddi Caru to anyone looking for childcare.

My little boy went to Kiddi Caru for three days a week from the age of 3 when we moved to the area and he loved it from day one.


The communication with parents is great and he really came on leaps and bounds and formed incredible relationships with the staff who he still talks about today even though

he's at school. I felt so comfortable leaving him in such a fun and caring environment.

Kiddi Caru was not the cheapest option but having viewed 6 other nurseries, Kiddi Caru stood out. I spent weeks deciding and finally took the leap. Best decision ever. Staff are amazing and very approachable. My son had settling-in issues but was supported all the way. If I have more children there
would be no doubt that I would use Kiddi Caru. There is no value on a child's safety and happiness.

Our son has made significant progress since joining Kiddi Caru in Peterborough. He has formed strong bonds with some practitioners and often mentions them in conversations at home. He has also grown in confidence and made new friends easily. We are very pleased with the level of care our son is enjoying
but we are also impressed with the way the nursery is managed.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.516)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.516) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Peterborough is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.516 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Peterborough is calculated as follows: ( (207 Excellents x 5) + (68 Goods x 4) + (26 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 310 Ratings = 4.516

  • 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 Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Peterborough is based on 23 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 114 number of registered child places is 22.8, which has been reached with 23 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.
