Best nursery that we know. Excellent staff. My child is learning very fast in everything. Suggestions to make parents evening with your child to get know other parents and children as well.

My son runs out of home on nursery mornings and thoroughly enjoys the interactions with staff and all the activities available. He has made good progress in all his skills and it's a delight to watch on as parents. My biggest concern is always that he is happy and he clearly is.

We are so impressed with the experience and care that our little girl (11 months old) is receiving whilst she is at KiddiCaru. The staff are all so friendly and caring - nothing is too much of a problem. The key worker who is in charge of her is exceptional and very kind and committed. Our little girl
loves her. We are always kept up to date with how the days have gone and the comments in the day book are informative and reassuring. We couldn't choose anywhere else and highly recommend to all family and friends.

I am a new mum with my first child and the thought of going back to work and leaving her with people I didn't know really worried me. I had been recommended Kiddi Caru by a few friends so decided to go have a look around. I booked onto a stay and play and from the moment I got there I loved it. The
nursery was clean, tidy and had lots for the children to do. The staff were kind and friendly and really understanding to how scary this process is for a new mum. After deciding to go with Kiddi Caru my daughter had a couple of settling in sessions and has loved it ever since.

My granddaughter has been attending Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Taunton for many years. I can not express how amazing this nursery is. The care and energy the staff put into every child is outstanding. One particular occasion when I went to collect my granddaughter they were all outside as the fire Alarm
was set off. The staff made sure that they were all safe and happy throughout the whole procedure. (Staff from Damson room especially stood out by singing to the children! )
It will be a sad day when my granddaughter leaves to attend school but she will be heads above the others in terms of the skills she has learnt at this nursery.
They are all just fabulous!!

The staff are friendly and extremely good with the children. With their help, my youngest son's development has come on beyond words even with all the difficulties he’s faced.
The nursery has been so supportive through everything with both my children and I can tell you I couldn’t have got through
it without their support at the time.
The activities they do with the children are amazing and so educational....keep up the amazing work.

A lively, busy nursery with lots going on to keep the little ones happy all day. Staff are always happy and caring, and the babies always seem to be well looked after. The building can feel big, but once the babies are in their own room it feels like a nice secure and friendly environment.

Everyday when we walk into the building, my boy gets excited to get in, he gives cuddles to his careers and when I leave he always waves to me with a big smile. For me, that's the best example I can give of the good job they do in Taunton, if my kid is happy to come in, that means he's been treated
well and enjoys his time there. If he's happy, I am happy!

Both of my children attend/attended and I couldn’t be happier. Very polite, friendly and attentive staff. They all seem to know every child’s name, which indicates how committed and caring they are.


The menu is very healthy, varied and smells wonderful. I don’t think the children have ever turned

down or not eaten everything, of any course.


The children look forward to attending and it gave my daughter confidence, structure and tremendous preparation, when she started primary school.


The facilities are second to none too, with emphasis towards ongoing improvement and innovation, of the nursery and grounds.

Absolutely outstanding nursery on every level.
Both my boys have attended Kiddi Caru Taunton, and I’ve never felt more comfortable leaving them. The staff go far beyond the standard requirements; are loving and attentive and, combined with great enthusiasm, always make sure that my children have fun-filled,
educational and creative days.
I cannot thank the staff enough for what they have done for my family and the support that’s been provided to us.
Thanking you, Kiddi Caru!

Kiddi Caru, Taunton is a fantastic nursery. Both my boys go and both come home shattered every night! My youngest is in the baby room and absolutely loves it, the staff are amazing and really look after him. My eldest is in the 2-3 year toom and tells me about all the amazing things they do and he is
learning so much, again, the staff are fantastic.


It's thanks to the staff team at Kiddi Caru that both my boys are so happy. They all know both of them and it feels like one big family.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.710)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.710) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Taunton is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 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 26 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 4.710 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Taunton is calculated as follows: ( (254 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.71

  • 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 Taunton is based on 26 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 129 number of registered child places is 25.8, which has been reached with 26 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.
