Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill. My 3-year-old daughter has thrived during her time there. The day is structured very well and she comes home most days having learnt something new. The staff are friendly, kind and know my child really well. They do lots of topic work and early learning which means my
daughter is well on her way of being ready for school.

We are very pleased with the decision to send our son to Kiddi Caru Day Nursery Redhill. The staff are dedicated to the children and very informative and helpful to their parents, especially ones who are always worried about everything! Our son enjoys time at the nursery and has really progressed in
terms of his social and personal development.

Wonderful nursery. My son has been attending for over two years now and I couldn’t ask for more. He has become a confident happy child. The staff are wonderful and encourage learning and playing.
Everything from the food they eat, to the activities they do, are well thought out.
The staff genuinely
care about the children, I think this is why my son seems to be happy there.
There is a lot of outside play time but also learning. My son seems to be counting and singing the days of the week in French.
Any problems, for example, bedtime, are talked about and a plan of action put into place like shorter nap time.
I couldn’t feel more comfortable leaving him at the nursery.

My son has been attending the nursery for six or so weeks.
The staff have been very supportive as he has adjusted to his new routine. His key worker is especially attentive and helpful.
There is lots to do and plenty of activities to keep him occupied which is good for his development.
We are always
kept informed if he has any accidents or is feeling under the weather.
We are very happy with the nursery.

Kiddi Curu is an amazing nursery.
My son had the best experience and loved every day before he started school.
This nursery deserves 10/10 the staff all work so hard and you can just see how much they interact and care for all the children.


Kiddi Curu is clean and totally up to date with all

the latest technology and toys for the children.
They do Sing and Sign, Boogie Mites and even yoga and French and the babies even have there own 6 seater buggy to get out and about it’s amazing.


Thank you Kiddi Curu what a fab nursery you are.

Our experience of Kiddi Caru has been so positive, the staff have been very supportive, especially with potty training and any other specific areas we want them to concentrate on.
My daughter's development with her language has come on leaps and bounds since starting at this nursery. Now at age 2.5years
old, she can count tot 20 and can say the days of the week in French.
My daughter is always happy when I go to collect her, playing with other children or chatting to the staff.

Kiddi Caru Redhill is an amazing nursery. Both my son and daughter have been attending for the past 10 months and I couldn't be happier. The nursery is relatively new and the equipment and facility, in general, is up to date, in good condition and appropriate. The staff are amazing and have a great
bond with the children - both my little ones love going and I have no issues with separation when dropping off. Their learning and knowledge have improved hugely since joining, and their communication and social skills have also improved. They are thriving at Kiddi Caru!!

This nursery provides a really warm and caring environment for the children to grow up in. The staff really seem to know our child and provide them with a really safe and nurturing environment. We have previously used another nursery in the local area but have found Kiddi Caru to be much more structured
and focussed on helping our child to grow. I cannot highly recommend the staff enough. They have formed an excellent bond with our child and talk about their time at the nursery in really positive terms.

Great new nursery and we are extremely happy with our child's progress. He was a quiet and shy boy and has developed into a very confident little man. Thanks to all at the nursery.

My parent review explained clearly what stage my daughter was at and how she was developing at the nursery. My key worker obviously had a fantastic understanding of my daughter's characteristics and needs.

Our daughters are in Ducklings room at nursery since January. They have settled very well and enjoy going to nursery. The activities and menu are very varied and the resources available to the children such as outside space and sensory room. We would recommend the nursery to anyone, a purpose built
nursery with fantastic caring staff.

A fantastic nursery, with happy and caring staff. I'm often astounded by what my children come home having learnt at nursery, with topics often being inspired bu what the children show an interest in.
The outdoor space is fantastic with children spending lots of time in it. Both my children have flourished
at Kiddi Caru and the low staff turnover shows the excellent stability.

My son moved to Kiddi Caru after being at another good nursery, so I was a bit apprehensive, but my son (now 4) absolutely loves it. The nursery is light, spacious and has incredible facilities and resources. My son joined cygnets and then moved into swans where his key carer has become a big part of
his life. He is due to go to school in September and has asked if we can go and visit his key carer every day after school. All the careers are fantastic and the communication is superb. My son is ahead of my previous son in terms of numeracy and literacy at this age, due to the learning activities in pre-school. In addition, he has taught me some yoga moves, shared stories, danced like crazy, built the tallest towers, met a range of animals from butterflies to lizards, sung in a care home, baked cakes and is becoming a well-rounded independent little boy. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

KC is literally the best nursery ever! My little princess has been here for nearly two years now, progressing from Cygnets through to Swans and has loved every single second!


She has thrived and flourished both in confidence and independence since day one and it fills my heart with such incredible

pride, reminiscing back to that very moment we first stepped our feet through the door, until now. Wow, we've come so far and it sure has been such a journey of boundless fun and adventure, full of gorgeous memories we will treasure forever!


I was always extremely hesitant and sceptical about sending my child off to nursery (full time!) in the first place; essentially trusting complete strangers with my most prized possession is hardly a piece of cake. However, KC erased all of these fears tenfold!


My babe loves each and every member of staff to bits, especially her two key carers, who are just amazing and absolute naturals at what they do! Their life's work has been helping my child to grow and there is no price tag for that. They have done an absolutely remarkable job in helping to raise my little lady to be all she can be and so much more. They are selfless, creative, honest, caring, gentle and kind and truly make such a difference in our lives. They make my daughter feel safe, secure and so incredibly loved, which as a parent is all I could ever ask for. They sincerely nurture, celebrate and embrace her for exactly who she is and love her like she's their very own.


I simply cannot praise them enough for their hard work, because it certainly isn't easy, but they sure make it look that way. They take time out of their (enormously busy!) days to communicate/write lovely messages, share special moments and photos with me in our communication book, which is just amazing and appreciated more than they will ever know! These "little things" are the big things and mean the most!


My daughter will be starting "Big School" this September (2017!) and we will be absolutely devastated to say goodbye to the team who have been such a hugely significant part of her life for so long. They are truly like family and we love them so very much! Always will!


KC is everything childcare should be and more! All our love & more.

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.
