My son has been attending Kiddi Caru since May 2016 and I have always had a very positive opinion of the staff and facilities provided there. He has excelled in many areas of child development, which is a testament to them. Every day when I go to collect him he never wants to leave :-) and always wants
me to know what he has been doing that day, also proud of any skills he has learnt. Based on my son's development and happiness attending there I would strongly recommend Kiddi Caru for any parents when choosing a nursery for their child.

My son started here five months ago and LOVES it. As parents, we were anxious to send him as he had been to a different nursery previously, where he was unable to settle; we needn't have worried. The team here have been excellent, they really listened to us to ensure that the transition was done in
a way that best suited our son, and in no time at all, he's completely settled and content there.


We are always thoroughly informed of what he gets up to each day, and there are always lots of different activities for them to get involved with. We have turned up at different times during the day to collect him, and the team are always fully interacting with the children. Not only is he always happy to be there, his speech and understanding have developed no end since attending there.


It really makes a difference to be able to go to work each day, having such a high level of trust in the people looking after your child.

Kiddi Caru Wellingborough had been part of my family since my son was 1. The staff are incredible. They make you feel so welcome and they are so easy to talk to. I always felt that each and every one of them loved my child and that he was their favourite! They are super supportive and provide excellent
suggestions that really work. My son has now left Kiddi Caru and is at school, but leaving the nursery was so difficult and extremely emotional. I really felt like I was losing family! My son has devolved and grown so much during his time at nursery. He has turned into such an amazing young man, a great deal of that I cannot take credit for!


If I have another child in the future they will, without a doubt, be attending Kiddi Caru. I could not ask for a better nursery, I cannot express in words how truly incredible they are! Well worth the price and by far the best nursery in the area! Thank you all so much again.

Kiddi Caru Wellingborough is by far the best nursery, I can't recommend them highly enough.
The staff at Kiddi Caru are amazing with the children, giving them the education and guidance but also being there for comfort when needed.


My son always went to nursery very happy and always enjoyed his

days there And grew very close to the staff.


The learning they offer is of a high standard and the children have great fun whilst doing so.


We found the food menus brilliant as they are very healthy and the staff are great at encouraging the children to eat (my son always needed it).


The garden is the best part for me as there are so many areas where the children can explore and learn.


You will always be greeted with a big smile.

My daughter started at 9 months old and is due to leave shortly as will be starting school. I have never had any issues or concerns and this remains. As she has grown she has learnt things and taken part in activities we wouldn't always get to complete at home and loves her days here. The staff are
and always have been wonderful, they are still very helpful and caring as much, as she is so much older. I could not recommend enough.

So happy with Kiddi Caru in Wellingborough. I wish I had found this company years ago when my other 2 children were at Preschool age.
In our misguided minds, we believed that a small family-run preschool was a better start for our eldest 2, but Kiddi Caru Wellingborough is just a dream to deal with.
My youngest son is coming on leaps and bounds every day and it is so noticeable.
The team in the diamond room are so clearly passionate about what they do and you can literally feel the care they provide. The management team go out of their way for anything you need, even answering their mobile phone at 9pm on a Friday and organising for you to attend on a Saturday morning when technically it's closed so you can arrange to collect your sons bunny that you should have picked up the previous day and didn't.... (I am such an idiot)
If you're looking for a preschool that will take as good care of your child as you do, then you've found it with Kiddi Caru Wellingborough.

Kiddi Caru is a brilliant nursery, I'd heard so many great reviews from other people and I couldn't agree more, all of the staff are so friendly. When I drop my daughter off every morning I can go to work with ease of knowing she'll have a fun day, be well looked after and fed well/healthily and taught
well!

The staff have alway been really helpful and do their best to make sure our child has a great time at nursery. She loves coming to nursery and is especially attached to one lady who goes above and beyond the call of duty! We have recommended the nursery to many friends and family and will continue to
do so. Keep up the good work.

As soon as I walked into Kiddie Karu I knew I wanted my daughter to come here. Experienced, welcoming and caring staff in every room helping my daughter have the most wonderful time and experience. She absolutely loves coming to 'school' and has benefitted so much. I have a very happy and confident
little girl and would like to thank the staff for their excellent care. I would recommend anyone to choose Kiddie Karu. XXX

We love the individual attention our children get at the nursery. Their learning experiences are tailored to their individual needs and interests. Everyone at nursery knows our children by name, even if they don't work in their own room. I love the atmosphere at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and the staff
really work hard to make it a wonderful homely place :)

My child is very insecure due to a bad experience in a different nursery. The staff have all been so kind and caring towards my child. They have helped my child so much I honestly couldn't ask for any better quality childcare! They are amazing.

I can't fault this nursery, my daughter loves going 3 days a week. The staff are really friendly and are always smiling. The nursery offers a wide range of meals for every child to try different things. My daughter has been going since she was 8 months old and she has learnt so much and come on leaps
and bounds. I don't think you'd find a better nursery, they treat everyone with so much respect.

Since moving to the nursery my daughter has come on leaps and bounds. She used to cry just at the thought of going, but due to the excellent interaction and care from the staff, she now can't wait to go in every day. Most recently her writing and drawing has improved massively and she's made lots of
friends. Kiddi Caru is a great environment for my daughter and I couldn't ask for any more from them.

Good value for money, you pay for what you get as I know price is at one of the top levels compared to some.
Money is certainly reinvested to continue to good standard of care.


Parents will always have an issue at one stage or another regarding an incident, I would find it unlikely to find a parent

that has never had an incident or complaint but genuinely this setting will oversee that odd occasion and see your child right in the early years of learning.

I just wanted to take the time to say a big thank you to Kiddi Caru, Wellingborough and especially to the ladies in the Amethyst room for all the care and personal care that they have been able to give to my son since I returned to work. As i'm sure you can appreciate it is always hard to leave a child
with someone else but since my son has been going to your nursery, I have really noticed a lovely difference in him and how the team have brought him on already. They always make me feel at ease when i leave and always take the time to tell me what he has done in the day when I pick him up which gives me great confidence that my son is really enjoying his time there.


I couldn't say enough great things about the Nursery and the team!

Happy with our sons learning, progress, development and most importantly how happy and settled he is. Staff always friendly, happy to give feedback, always feel listened to and offer good advice. They take their time handing over. Overall very happy with the nursery. My only concern is discipline techniques
with some children and having to explain inconsistencies with home life.

Reply from Caron Moseley, Marketing Manager at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Wellingborough

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.571)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.571) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Wellingborough 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 16 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 4.738 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Wellingborough is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 202 Ratings = 4.738

  • 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 4.833 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Wellingborough is based on 16 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. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.2 = 0.833

  • 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.
