My boy has been attending this nursery over 3 years full time even if it is in a different corner of the city from where we live, but I don't have enough words to praise this place. the managers and the staff are amazing and very understanding, always tried to accommodate our needs and children's as
well. The nursery is very clean with food cooked on site and they have a massive garden where children can explore. For my son to be there full time, means we didn't have the necessary time at home to get him ready for school but they have been amazing teaching him everything he needs to know and now he is more than ready. I feel gutted he needs to leave this nursery now as over 3 years he's been so happy in Kiddi Caru. I really believe it is the best nursery in Plymouth and surrounding areas.

Our 4-year-old Son has received exceptional support and care from all of the staff at Kiddi Caru Plympton since he joined just at 17 months.
Our son has a speech delay and other additional learning needs. The support he has received has been overwhelmingly superb and we can’t praise them enough.

The nursery is fantastic. My daughter has been there since she was one and she is devastated to be leaving in August.
I moved house part way through her time there and viewed a lot of nursery’s that were more convenient due to distance but nothing came close to Kiddi Caru so I travelled the extra distance
to keep her there.

The staff make sure the little ones are fed, clean and going back home tired but happy only to go back or more mischief.

I am so pleased to have placed my little one at Kiddi Caru. All the staff and managers are so professional and so friendly. I was worried about leaving my little one with people who I didn't really know but as soon as I had the induction I knew that she would be looked after well. My little one is always
so happy to go to nursery and is always smiling away. I would always recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking for a nursery for their children.

My son has loved his time at Kiddi Caru and it has given me the ability to go to work knowing that he is happy and well cared for in a fun, safe and clean environment. The activities are excellent and communication from staff is amazing.
My son loves the food and often asks for second helpings!

My daughter loves coming to nursery. The staff are all so welcoming and well informed. I really like how well the staff know all the children and how keen they are to engage with parents. My daughter has an excellent relationship with her key worker and the care and support she receives are wonderful.
I really feel all her needs are met to an excellent standard and communication is always prompt and informative. We are very happy with the nursery and particularly the staff who work with our daughter.

A fantastic nursery with friendly, professional and caring staff. I was initially a little nervous about starting my young son at nursery when returning to work, but as soon as I toured their facilities, I knew that I had nothing to worry about. The staff are a real credit to the nursery and I am always
so grateful that my son is being genuinely cared for when he's not with me. The range of meals is fantastic and I'm always slightly jealous to hear what he's eaten that day!

Kiddi Caru is an amazing nursery. The staff are best in class, always helpful. The main indicator of how good the nursery is, is that our son loves it there and we've seen him really develop and grow over the past few years because of the impact of the nursery.

When my son began at Kiddi Caru, I was extremely apprehensive about being away from him. The staff at Kiddi Caru provide such a wonderfully fun and caring environment that from day 1, I could see how much my son loved it there. It’s clear that all the staff, including management, build great relationships
with every child. I could not be more grateful for all of the staff that work so hard at Kiddi Caru to provide the best level of care every day.

Fantastic nursery!! The girls in Cedar room are like family to our son.
Nursery practitioners and modern apprentice go above and beyond every single day.
I can't recommend them enough.
Their menus are well balanced and they have great facilities within the nursery and garden.
My son has come on
leaps and bounds since joining Kiddi Caru Plympton.
I hope their hard work is recognised by management.

I cannot rate Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Plympton highly enough. This is a fantastic nursery all the staff are truly amazing and so friendly and helpful and really take time to get to know you as well as your children. My little boy has been here since just before his first birthday and I have never had
any issues or concerns (he is nearly 4). The staff really engage with the children and you can see the bond the children have will all the staff. You are always kept up to date with your child's development and communication from the nursery as a whole is fantastic. If anyone is looking for a nursery for their children which is an environment their children will love and also help them to reach their true potential then this is the place to go.

Highly professional and committed staff who are always willing to help parents and children alike.
I have been massively impressed with the development within my son and the relationships that he has with key carers.
The fact that every member of staff knows his name (as well as presumably all the
other children's names as well) speaks volumes for the passion and enthusiasm that the staff have for their jobs.

A fantastic nursery where my child has thrived in a safe and caring environment.
I cannot thank Kiddi Caru staff more for their fantastic care of my daughter. She has been in Kiddi Caru since she was 18 months old and is due to start school this year. She has had many opportunities to learn academically,
socially and emotionally. They have encouraged her to be herself and she loves it there.
There is no other nursery I’d be happy to put my second child in other than Kiddi Caru.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.969)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.969) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Plympton 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.969 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Plympton is calculated as follows: ( (314 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.969

  • 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 Plympton is based on 27 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 100 number of registered child places is 20, which has been reached with 27 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.
