My son has been attending KGems since he was 4.5 months old to 3 years 9 months old and I cannot express how grateful I am for the care and attention he has received over the years. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel like family. They arranged brand new items (bed-swing etc.)for my
son. The caregivers are incredibly loving, patient, and dedicated to ensuring each child thrives in a nurturing environment.


My son has grown so much emotionally, socially, and intellectually thanks to their efforts. Their communication with parents is excellent-they keep us informed of his progress, milestones, and even the small, heartwarming moments of his day. The app is really helpful.


I wholeheartedly recommend KGems Valentines Park to any parent looking for a daycare that genuinely cares for their child's well-being and growth. It has been a joy to watch my son flourish here, and we will always cherish the memories of his early years.

Our daughter has absolutely loved nursery from the very first day she joined kGems Nursery, Valentines Park 2020 to 2024 (1 year old through to pre-school).
This nursery is perfect in size, spacious and is situated in a great location. It's allowed kids to enjoy being close to nature. The staff at
kGems are really friendly and have been supportive throughout their journey at nursery. Our child has made lovely memories that she'll cherish for life. Our child has really enjoyed eating her meals. With fresh food being cooked onsite - variety has included teriyaki chicken, meatballs to curry and rice.
As a parent, we have enjoyed using the app to receive regular updates on our child's progress as well as tracking how she was doing with toilet training, learning new skills, eating independently, trying new foods, etc.
kGems hosts really enjoyable annual sports days and open days. Thank you kGems for taking care of the little one.

My son attended his preschool in 2022-23 with kGems Day Nursery and we can't express how grateful we are for the staff, manager and entire team of kGems for their lovely behaviour. I do not think I could have given a better start of education to my child than this school. We as parents feel proud to
have chosen the school and our son who loves his teachers doesn't wish to leave which tells us how happy he is with the school.

My son is way happier at this nursery than when he used to go to the previous one and that says a lot to me and my wife. One of the things I like most is the facilities and open space. I'd also like to remark on the lovely staff. Who are very professional and caring. I also love the app where I can
have real-time feedback on what's going on with my child.

Wonderful atmosphere. I come all the way from Beckton to pick up and drop off my daughter as I really didn't want to change her nursery after we moved from the area. It's a spacious nursery with excellent staff and my daughter has learned a lot. I can visibly see the development in her.

We choose this nursery after being recommended by a friend, and after the 2 years my son spent there I feel like we've made the right choice.
I just look into my son's eyes and I understand that he is very happy and confident around everyone here.
Excellent staff, management and the best service,
all in a beautiful space with an amazing garden.

As parent's, it's always difficult to find the right nursery that meets all our expectations, so it was such a relief when I was recommended Knowledgems by family. I have been so pleased with the nursery, my son has been attending since July and he absolutely loves it!


With safe, big gardens for

the children, clean interiors, professional and caring staff, Knowledgems has made the transition so smooth and manageable. Massive thanks to all the team there!!

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.437)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.437) out of 10 for kGems Day Nursery - Valentines Park 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 4.861 for kGems Day Nursery - Valentines Park is calculated as follows: ( (31 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.861

  • 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 3.576 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for kGems Day Nursery - Valentines Park is based on 3 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 = 3.25

    • 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 46 number of registered child places is 9.2. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.2 = 0.326

  • 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.
