My child is very very happy at the nursery. I can see that he loves the people looking after him, especially his key person. He eats brilliantly and has learnt so much since he’s been there. He seems to get up to all sorts of fun!

We absolutely love Kiddi Caru Market Harborough and can’t fault it. Our daughter has been going 2 days a week for over a year now since she was 9 months old and it has been the best decision to send her when I went back to work. The wonderful members of staff are so kind, caring and loving, my daughter
has developed some incredible bonds in both bluebells and now daffodils. Their communication with us as parents is excellent. The activities and food that my daughter experiences every day she is there are so varied, educational and nutritious. She has made some friends which is amazing to see. Thank you for helping my daughter to blossom into our confident, independent girl who adores nursery.

The staff are lovely, with a special shout out to one lady who was so patient with my son when moving up to the daffodils room as he was really struggling to start with.
Also, to another member of staff who put so much effort into him before he moved up to poppies, his transition to your room went
so smoothly.
The nursery has also played a massive part in my little boy's development, he has become so confident since being at the nursery, and his speech is great.
Thank you for taking such good care of him.

My 2 boys who have just both turned 3 absolutely love the nursery. They were late starters to nursery but the staff in their first class were so patient with helping them settle into their new surroundings and always so thorough in informing me how their day was. They have now moved up a class and are
doing amazing, the nursery made the transition so easy for them and they now ask to go to nursery when it's not their days! Their speech has come on fantastically and I feel the nursery has been a huge part of that. The boys love the toys, activities and outdoor play. I feel we made the perfect choice for them.

All the staff at the nursery are amazing. They have been so helpful and welcoming from day one with nothing seeming to be too much trouble for them. You can tell they love their jobs and it's reassuring to know that the children are looked after and cared for. They even managed to stay open the couple
of days when we had terrible snow when it would have been much easier for them to close, the staff had very difficult journeys to make it in with some travelling for 2 and a half hours just to get there. Fantastic dedication and responsibility shown and this is just one example. I am extremely happy with the nursery and would also like to give a shout out to a couple of the management team, for their continued help and support to me personally since we started coming to the nursery last year.

All the staff are amazing at Kiddi Caru Market Harborough. Every single one of the members of staff show my son compassion and love every single day he enters his nursery/pre school room. All the staff went over and above to accommodate my sons needs and to provide him with every single opportunity
to thrive in his setting, and thriving he most definitely is! The improvement he has made with his speech and language, as well as his social skills still shock me and my husband every day! It’s just lovely to go somewhere every day where everyone is smiling and genuinely happy - extremely refreshing!

My eldest child has now graduated from Kiddi Caru but my youngest is still in attendance. The team are fantastic, and I highly rate the management team. My daughter has additional needs related to a physical disability and the setting has been excellent at accommodating this. We feel well supported
and the staff and both my children have been very happy here.

I cannot fault our experience of Kiddi Caru Market Harborough. Being a first-time mum, I was very apprehensive about being apart from my son and returning to work but little did I know I had nothing to worry about. From day one he was surrounded by patient, caring and loving members of staff who addressed
all my worries and went above and beyond to help my son's transition into nursery. Their communication with us as parents is excellent. Our son gets to experience a wide variety of activities and explore things that he doesn't get at home. He has nutritious, varied and yummy food and is well supported in his first interactions with making friends and exploring the world independently. I feel reassured he is safe and surrounded by enthusiastic and nurturing staff. Thank you!

A lovely environment for young babies. Our little boy has been enrolled since September and he loves his days at the nursery. The staff are all very caring, supportive and knowledgable. He has been introduced to lots of different food and loves all of the activities, particularly singing and all the
sensory activities. Very pleased with our choice.

I think the nursery is lovely. The only thing I would say that could be improved is the updates on the app, they are always updates and pictures of the week before. I know some nurseries update the app when a child has had a wee on the potty, not that I'd expect that much detail but it would be nice
to get an update if my child has gone in upset, just to show they've cheered them up. Sometimes when finishing work and collecting my child I forget to ask certain things and don't know how much she's eaten all of the time. It would be nice to get more updates of what she's done in the day, such as what she's eaten and how long she's napped, this is helpful information for when somebody else has to collect my child for me, due to work.

The nursery is a good size and very clean. They have a large selection of toys and books for the children, and each room has its own garden.
My son has been going to this nursery for over a year, and he loves it.
The staff are all lovely, and they give you updates every day on what they have done.
I wouldn’t dream of using another nursery.

Both of my children have been through Kiddi Caru from the age of 6 months to school age. Our experiences have been nothing but wonderful; our children were always delighted to arrive each morning and it was sometimes even a struggle to get them to come home! The staff are wonderful: caring, nurturing
and fun! The activities planned were always well thought out and engaging, capturing their imagination and encouraging a love of learning. The communication was also excellent and the manager accommodating, flexible and professional. I cannot recommend Kiddi Caru Market Harborough highly enough.

My daughter is currently in the Daffodils room and has had such a positive experience since starting at 9 months old. She started in the middle of the pandemic and she settled amazingly thanks to all the kind and caring staff team. The settling in process is fantastic offering 3/4 weeks of sessions
to ensure children are ready to start their new journey. The stay and play sessions they offer to enable parents to see the children enjoying nursery to their full potential! We have nothing but positives to say about this nursery and we highly recommend to others.
The management team are always on hand and are always welcoming and friendly.
Thank you all!

The nursery was a recommendation from a friend. After a visit, we knew immediately it was the one without even looking anywhere else. The settling-in sessions were great and it was so nice to see how our son would get on with the staff. He’s been there a few months now and never cried at drop-off. In
fact, he sprints through the doors.
I love getting updates on what he’s been doing in the daytime and I’ve noticed a massive improvement in his speech.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.873)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.873) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Market Harborough is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 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 4.873 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Market Harborough is calculated as follows: ( (287 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 323 Ratings = 4.873

  • 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 Market Harborough 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.
