What a great nursery/preschool! My eldest boy went to Kiddy Kapers and my youngest is still there and they've both had an amazing time. I've always been happy leaving them there with the wonderful and caring people who work there and it's so lovely to see them smiling when they come out. It's a very
warm, friendly and welcoming place and I can't thank them enough for the care and enjoyment they've given to my boys. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to see their children happy.

We moved our youngest here after our oldest started at the connected school. Initially slightly skeptical, as our youngest loved his first nursery, we were soon calmed by how well he settled in.
Whilst the building itself is a little tired, the staff, management and overall care are very good. Recent
investment in the outside space is improved and our lad has very much enjoyed his time there.

Both of my kids have attended Kiddy Kapers Daycare over the past three years. They have now both graduated from their preschool. I have always admired the friendliness of the staff and my children have formed genuine bonds with the staff. Always happy to give them cuddles of reassurance when needed.
Kiddy
Kapers is very conveniently located next to the primary school I chose for my kids which I think really helps with the transition into Early Years Foundation Set. I have raised a couple of issues over the years but they have very promptly been dealt with, the manager is always happy to chat and has been very flexible with me.

A nice nursery set inside the grounds of a primary school. Friendly welcoming staff. My daughter really enjoys attending.
Good communication ensuring that we always had adequate childcare when needed. They were also able to accommodate some changes to the schedule.
I would recommend this nursery.

We moved our son to Kiddy Kapers midterm and, thanks to the amazing staff, he settled in really quickly. It is an excellent nursery and the staff are all really friendly and accommodating. I particularly like the fact that they take the children on excursions to the local park and also do trips to the
library. Our son has now started school and will benefit from their excellent summer clubs now!

This is a great nursery/preschool. I moved my son here after a not so good start at a different preschool and the difference in him, even after a short time, was amazing. The staff are helpful, friendly and fair. I love that they used an app daily and kept you up to date with what your child was doing
at school that day. Never felt rushed at drop off or pick up, they always went into detail about how they were that day, what they did and what they ate. Would highly recommend.

Outstanding nursery. It is run really well. Good outdoor play area. Good indoor space with plenty of toys and games for the children to learn through play. Our son is an only child and, due to the lockdown, did not have much interaction with other children. The manager and her team really helped him
settle in and his confidence and behaviour have developed enormously. Throughout the year any requests we made were carried out. We were able to view pictures and text of activities our son had been doing via the parent app. My child was always happy to attend everyday. He is now ready to start school. Kiddy Kapers is a fantastic nursery. I would highly recommend it as a great choice nursery for your child.

Kiddy Kapers Daycare have been a wonderful nursery for my son. To watch him learn and grow and improve in so many aspects has been great to see. He does suffer from some speech delay but the nursery has been very helpful in that aspect and he has improved leaps and bounds. My son is a fussy eater but
eats very well at the nursery and enjoys his meals. The meals provided are attractive to the children at the same time very nutritious. My son requests to go to nursery even on weekends, when we are on holiday or even when he is not feeling well because he enjoys himself with his lovely teachers and friends. I am really thankful to the staff of Kiddy Kapers Daycare who have taken care of my child brilliantly!

I've had 4 of my children attend Kiddy Kapers, with my youngest graduating pre-school this year. Over the last 9 years, my children have always loved and enjoyed their time here. Any issues (not that there have been many) were met with professionalism and understanding, with continuous communication
throughout their pre-school journey. I've loved seeing their development on the parent app and in person on their special days as they love getting parents and family involved in many activities on site. The staff and pre-school have and will be missed by my children and myself.

My two daughters have both attended Kiddy Kapers Daycare over the last few years, I highly recommend this nursery/pre-school. The staff are kind, caring and professional and I always leave knowing that she is in the best hands. They take the time to really get to know your children as individuals, and
my daughter thoroughly enjoyed her time here, we will be sad to leave when she starts school, although will definitely be back when my son is ready to attend!

I knew from the moment I walked into Kiddy Kapers that their nursery was the right one for my daughter. After looking around a few from all over Leicester this was by far the most welcoming. From day one everyone made us feel welcome, spoke to my little girl like a real person, and made us feel at ease.
I was so worried about leaving my baby (first child) but this quickly changed when I realised how great everyone was, how much she was getting from the setting, and how much outdoor activities and play they do. She has been there since she was 14 months old and has grown up with all the amazing staff there, right through to pre-school. I truly believe my daughter is a better person from being at Kiddy Kapers. She has learned so much in her time there and I will be forever grateful to each and everyone of them involved in her care. We’ve had a few hiccups here and there but these have always been overcome. Please consider Kiddy Kapers for your child, I don’t think you will be disappointed!

Kiddy Kapers has been amazing from start to finish for our son, he has come on leaps and bounds in the few years he has been with them! The Manager and her team have been excellent, they’ve been so helpful, kind, caring and so much more. They carried on caring for our children throughout the pandemic
and have been brilliant throughout. They have been so flexible and accommodating I would highly recommend them to anyone. The attention to detail and feedback they provide at the end of the day gives you peace of mind that my child has expertly cared for that day! I know my son will miss going to nursery, but is now well equipped to head to ‘big school’. I would recommend this nursery and daycare to anyone! Thank you so much!

My little boy went to the Kiddy Kapers pre-school and will graduate in July this year. I also have a younger daughter and I will definitely be sending my little girl here too. I know 100% that when I would drop him off, he will be in the best of care. The staff here really do care about the children.
Teaching them valuable life skills and preparing them ready for primary school. They do lots of fun activities and make learning fun and engaging. I am extremely thankful for their contribution in providing him with the skills and confidence in his transition to primary school.

Lovely people looking after and teaching the children. My daughter is always happy to go to nursery and having lots of fun. It's based in a school ground which makes it easy for parents who have older kids in the school. Caring staff and management.

Kiddy Kapers offers a friendly, warm environment for children to attend. My boys come here during school holidays, which enables me to continue in my demanding line of work. Although it caters for smaller children, my boys have thoroughly enjoyed going here as they deliver an array of activities which
also cater for older children. What they love the most is the amount of outdoor free play that is promoted and the engagement throughout these activities from the staff members. It is difficult enough shipping your children off to a day scheme during school holidays, but when you have peace of mind that they are having fun and playing it makes it a whole lot easier. The staff are always friendly and approachable when the children are dropped off and collected at the end of the day. I would definitely recommend Kiddy Kapers for holiday club! 10/10 service... Thanks guys!

The manager and all the staff at Kiddy Kapers are so kind and welcoming. Nothing is ever too much. Both our daughters absolutely love going and even sometimes cry when they have to leave! Our eldest had been to a childminder previously and my youngest only at home with me and I was nervous about leaving
them but they made us and the girls feel at ease. Within 2 weeks the girls were settled and it was like they’d always been there. They’ve helped my eldest daughter learn to write her own name and other letters ready for when she moves up to primary school. The care and support they give is second to none. We’d recommend Kiddy Kapers to anyone.

Kiddy Kapers has been amazing! My child has increased in confidence and settled so quickly and easily after really struggling at his previous setting. The staff have shown him nothing but care and have really helped him come out of himself. I honestly cannot praise them enough. They have such varied

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.419)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.419) out of 10 for Kiddy Kapers Daycare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 4 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 4.644 for Kiddy Kapers Daycare is calculated as follows: ( (34 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 45 Ratings = 4.644

  • 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 3.775 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddy Kapers Daycare is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.4

  • 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.
