We are so pleased with how our child has really improved since she started going to Kiddi Caru, Rushden. She’s eating/trying loads of food since she started and her speech has improved too, she speaks more than before. They have lovely staff, sometimes our little girl doesn’t want to go home because
she’ll be really enjoying it and we are so happy about it.

When considering all the different options of where we could send our little boy at such a young age, 4 and a half months old, upon visiting kiddi Caru, Rushden it came apparent so easily and fast that it was the perfect place. All the staff are amazingly friendly and know exactly what they are doing.
They take your whole situation into consideration and they will find a way of sorting a perfect plan of action that works alongside your routines and lifestyle. Every query I have had has had an answer straight away and I have never been let down by this nursery. I am so glad my little one joined the baby room when he has and I am excited for him to be at the nursery for the next few years. Thank you Kiddi Caru for your help with everything. My son looks forward to going nursery all the time!

Our son has been attending the nursery setting since March 2019. He absolutely loves going each morning and is so happy when he knows he gets to see his friends. Each day he is busy with a variety of activities that are aimed at his interests. The staff are all very kind and welcoming to both him and
us as parents.

We have been with the nursery for 3+ years and all 3 of our children have attended.
The nursery is well run, staff are welcoming and more importantly, my kids are happy!
Even when I deliver grumpy children they manage to put a smile on their faces!
Well done and keep up the good work!

Our daughter has been at the nursery for a year and it's a home from home.
We were apprehensive about how she would adjust to nursery when I went back to work and she was only 10 months old, and a very tactile baby but the staff were and remain fantastic. Some of the staff are still there from when
my 12 and 10 year old sons went to this nursery and that gave us peace of mind.
Our princess is thriving at the nursery and it's all down to the fabulous staff. The chef prepares great nutritious meals, and they all work as a fabulous team. We have peace of mind when she's at nursery and we are at work.
Staff have been great when I've been ill and my husband has struggled, or when my husband has worked away and baby has been clingy, they have given her the additional care and affection she has needed.
Always friendly with my older boys when we pick baby up - it's like having a wonderful extended family.

A professional and friendly nursery which my son has enjoyed since he was one and is now in preschool. His baby brother will be going at the end of this year.


Lots of outdoor play and more unusual activities of French lessons and yoga. A healthy and fun environment to play and learn.


Food is good

and organic and my son almost always has a second helping!

Two of my three children currently attend Kiddi Caru Rushden. We moved to the area last April so had nobody’s opinion to rely on and initially attended a different nursery in the area but our children were miserable so we decided on Kiddi Caru instead and we haven’t looked back! Our children absolutely
love attending the nursery and they are so well looked after in all aspects. They have both progressed academically but also with their social confidence, especially my eldest who has always been a little shy! We cannot wait for our daughter's journey to start at Kiddi Caru in the next couple of months.

I was really worried about my 2-year-old starting nursery as she’s never been away from me. After 2 months of going (one morning a week), I can already see a difference in her confidence. She loves the staff and enjoys all the activities, and she’s doing new things every week like helping to get her
shoes and coat on and off.

Our little boy has been at the nursery since he was about eight and a half months old. We have loved watching his development and the bonds that he has made with the other children and the staff. He is always excited to go to nursery and starts bouncing up and down and waving when he realises where
he is going.
The staff have always been very friendly and happy to chat to us about any issues that may have arisen or to give us advice on something. The nursery room itself has always been lovely and laid out with lots of interesting toys. We have loved that the children are encouraged to go outside as much as possible and that they are also encouraged to get involved in messy play, cooking etc.
It has also been great as a parent to hear what he has been up to each day and to see the photos and developments on the online journal.

Both children love coming to nursery, the staff have always given their full support and reassurance to both me and the children with each transition (ie starting nursery and moving to the next room). The children are always talking about their KeyWorkers and other staff who help/have helped. They actually
now look forward to coming to nursery and you can see the developments that they are making each week.

My daughter has been attending since May 2018, prior to this, my other daughter attended the nursery in the pre-school room. It has to be said this year I have been very pleased with the room my youngest daughter is in-the staff are professional, kind, caring and always give sufficient information on
what my daughter has been doing during the sessions she attends. The activities that are provided are of a good quality and the resources used are always age appropriate. The staff are well equipped to extend activities where appropriate to develop and strengthen my child’s learning opportunities and experiences. Tapestry is regularly updated with observations to keep me updated with her progress in relation to the EYFS.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.365)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.365) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Rushden is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 11 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 4.792 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Rushden is calculated as follows: ( (105 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.792

  • 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 4.573 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Rushden is based on 11 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 96 number of registered child places is 19.2. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.2 = 0.573

  • 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.
