KiddiCaru is an amazing nursery! It's the second one I have been using and it really doesn't compare! My little one has been going there 5 days a week for over a year now and we both love it. It offers the reassurance of big companies (in terms of health and safety, official curriculum and quality learning,
appropriate diet, big facilities with gardens etc.) but it also has a local/family feel to it. It is a comfortable and caring environment with friendly and enthused staff who make all activities both educational and entertaining. My little one just loves the constant dancing, acted stories, role plays, messy play etc. She has been thriving there and I can see a real improvement in her social and language skills that I know are mainly due to her time at nursery! (We speak a different language at home) She has also built very strong bonds with the staff which is lovely to see. I would recommend Kiddicaru Redhill to anyone really (I did already, to my GP!) It is a worthy investment!

My child for 6 months was in the baby room (5 days a week). We as parents can see a big difference now, the child with the key worker and the whole team support has gone a long way. She did not really crawl when she first came, now she walks. I can see that she learns more from her peers now, copying
adults when they have a sing and sign and other activities.
The other point to make is 'shoes off' approach in the baby room that we liked. Children are well looked after, most of the staff is enthusiastic about what they do, focus on new skills development based on child's ability, very personal approach and friendly.

Totally happy with the care received by my daughter at the nursery. She absolutely loves going there everyday, interacting with the carers, playing with other kids and having lots of fun in the daily activities. Totally thrilled with this choice.

A great nursery with lovely staff, our son has had 2 great key carers in the baby and then toddler room. He has a dairy allergy and they have been very thorough with the risk assessment for him on that front, which always gives you peace of mind. Communication is great and any concerns we have had have
been received and dealt with very professionally.

We have been extremely happy with the nursery and couldn't recommend it enough. The staff take wonderful care of our daughter and she gets so much stimulation through fun activities. She has recently moved up from the baby room and has taken to it so well. It's a testament to the staff for making her
feel comfortable and well looked after that she is as happy as she has ever been.

We have been delighted at the growth and development which is abundantly apparent in our daughter. She is happy, confident and has a great sense of humour which she shares with the staff. We have been impressed by the variety of meals provided and the activities that are offered, both indoors and outdoors.
We look forward to seeing her continue to flourish.

Right from day one, we were welcomed by very friendly and experienced staff. Our 2-year-old settled in very quickly and she always leaves nursery in the best of moods thanks to the teams and activities. We're thrilled about the Outstanding Ofsted review and would recommend Kiddi Caru Redhill to anyone
looking for a great launching pad for their kids' education and development.

My son has attended Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill since he was 10 months and he's now coming up for 3. I've found that he's thrived from being at nursery and is very a happy, sociable and talkative little boy - a lot of which I attribute to the care and attention he receives there.


The nursery is

clean, the staff are lovely (both carers and management) and there is plenty for my little boy to do and play with each day - he's particularly enjoying learning his ABC yoga at the moment! He genuinely loves going, so much so that he cried when I picked him up the other day!


I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery and will definitely register any further siblings for a place there.

We are very happy with Kiddi Caru, Redhill. There is a great variety of fun activities for the children to enjoy which enables them to learn new things and develop new skills but are carried out in a safe environment. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful and our daughter enjoys the time she
spends at the nursery.

Great nursery with amazing staff who clearly care a lot about the children in their care. We feel completely comfortable leaving our son at Kiddi Caru safe in the knowledge that he's going to have an interesting and stimulating day, eating wholesome food with staff who are loving and dedicated. It's
only downfall for us is that it's very expensive and unfortunately means that we will have to find alternative childcare when baby number two arrives.

Great clean nursery, with good facilities. Staff are very friendly and provide lots of support and advice. My child has been attending the nursery for 9 months and recently moved up a class. The transition was very smooth with plenty of settling in sessions.

All the staff at Kiddi Caru are excellent and we feel totally at ease with leaving our daughter there. She comes home happy every day and we know that she has had a good time full of play, learning and fun. She is never unhappy to be left at nursery and has settled in really well. I have no complaints
whatsoever about the staff or facilities at Kiddi Caru Redhill.

My son has been at the nursery since it opened in 2016. He absolutely loves it and consequently so do we. Each room he has been in (he started at 18 months) has been filled with fantastic resources and activities and the staff are wonderful. They actively play with the children and engage them constantly.
They are supportive and really care for the wellbeing of the children. When my son has had an interest in something particular, they have tailored activities around that which is really impressive. He is always coming home singing songs he has learnt and talks so positively about his days there. We will be sad to leave when he goes to school!

I would highly recommend Kiddi Karu in Redhill . My daughter is the easiest girl but she is extremely happy in nursery, lots of fun and lots of love from the carers. I am a full time working mum but I can leave my baby there without any worries and focus on my work.
The food there is fabulous too.
My daughter has an allergy to gluten/wheat products so nursery provides her really yummy gluten-free meal and at the same time she still enjoys the meal time with other kids.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.947)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.947) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 13 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 4.397 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill is calculated as follows: ( (102 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.397

  • 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 4.55 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.55

  • 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.
