View Full Details of Pennies Day Nursery - Newnham Court, MaidstoneMy child has been attending since November and he has grown to love it so much! Starting off at nursery was hard on him and myself but I knew he was in excellent hands. The staff are amazing and have been working there for years they made us feel so assured. He loves going now, drop offs are still challenging but by the end of the day he is happy and playing! He comes home with having excellent meals and snack, wonderfully creative messy play, loads of outdoor time and crafts! Pennies was recommended to me by a colleague and I would recommend them as well! It's a wonderful caring compassionate place, and feels like one big family!
My son has been attending PKC/holiday club for nearly 3 years and the ladies that look after him are outstanding. His confidence has come on so much because of them, he eats different foods and really has come out of his shell. My son is well looked after whilst in their care and I can't thank them enough. I also cannot recommend PKC enough. Always go above and beyond for the children.
The nursery provides an outstanding environment for children, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and engaged throughout the day. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with warmth and positivity, and it's truly remarkable how the staff maintain their friendly and supportive attitude-even at the end of a long day. Everything about the nursery is well-organized and transparent, making it easy for parents to stay informed and feel confident about their child's care and development. The staff build wonderful relationships with the children, showing genuine care, patience, and dedication. Their ability to connect with each child on an individual level creates a nurturing and encouraging atmosphere where little ones can thrive. Overall, this nursery is a fantastic place for young children to learn, grow, and develop in a loving and stimulating setting. Highly recommended!
I cannot recommend Pennie's at Newnham Court highly enough. My almost 3 year has attended since he was 13 months old and absolutely loves it. Settling in was tough for us both but the staff were so warm and loving towards him and really put my mind at ease. He runs happily into his room in the morning and comes home from each session having learnt something new and singing the praises of the staff in his room. I have always found the staff to be warm, approachable and happy to answer any questions I have about my son and his development. I really like the continuity of staff and how those who have looked after him in previous rooms seem to remember and speak to him when we see them. He also raves about the food and eats everything "and more"! My second son is signed up to join in 2025 and I have every confidence that he will be just as happy there. Leaving your children to return to work is the hardest thing ever but Pennie's have made it slightly easier and I am forever thankful!
My son attends the pre-school at Pennies he loves it two members of staff in particular are amazing and all other staff. The nursery is always very clean great security and very good home cooked food. I can not recommend it enough Thanks
Absolutely fantastic nursery. We now have two children attending pennies and honestly I cannot fault them. The opening hours are brilliant for two working parents, specially a shift worker. Both my children love attending and they love their key workers like another member of our family. There's no way I could have comfortably gone back to work without the peace of mind that my children love attending nursery! The food is incredible (better than anything I could make at home) and the activities they set up provide both a challenge and fun. No faults with pennies at all. The management are approachable and always there for advice and I feel the genuinely care for all the children. Very happy with pennies
My daughter has been attending nursery since January 2024. She has developed wonderfully since then. She is more independent and capable . So far we are extremely happy with our child, teachers and learning at pennies.
My daughter started Pennies in September 2024. My daughter was apprehensive to start nursery and pennies went above and beyond to settle her in. They respond to her needs, they no all her likes and dislikes, they give her extra food if she's still hungry. They have brought her on leaps and bounds and I'm so pleased she's a pennies girl
Fees do not reflect the fact that the nursery is closed throughout the whole Christmas period even on normal working days. Would like more regular parents' evenings to understand developments etc. The staff are friendly and great with children, really happy with activities done throughout the day and the catering. Outside equipment should be cleaner.
My daughter has attended Pennies since she was 1, she can be shy and requires a lot of reassurance. During her time at Pennies, she has become much more confident and I cannot fault the staff at all, her key workers have supported my daughter and myself through some tricky stages with my daughter's confidence and she is becoming such a happy, confident little girl ready to go to pre-school soon. My son is starting Pennies in the new year and I look forward to seeing him flourish at Pennies, I would recommend to anyone I know.
My daughter has attended Pennies Day Nurseries since February 2023 and has thoroughly enjoyed her time there. The staff are fantastic and she has made great connections with numerous staff members over the years. The nursery is inviting and vibrant. The meals provided are nutritious and healthy. Every day she comes home happy.
Since our little boy started Pennies in February 2024, we have had nothing but support from the nursery, from settling in to moving up to his next room. Pennies have been outstanding. All the staff are amazing and genuinely care about your child and their wellbeing. I would recommend Pennies to anyone!
Pennies is a much-loved nursery by our daughter. Our experience at Pennies has been very positive and much credit to all staff who pay such focus on our daughter's development. Special mention goes to all the staff, especially a particular staff member in Little Lunars, who always goes above and beyond. No task feels like it's too much. Thank you and keep up the good work.
Both our children have gone to Pennies and one is currently at Little Lunars. Both our daughters loved every room and the connection with all the ladies is amazing. They do a lot of outside play and plenty of arts and crafts. They kindly make little gifts for us to keep as keepsakes. This includes Christmas decorations and hand prints. The ladies do generally seem to love the kids and light up for each kid that comes in the room. Would recommend!
Pennies is such a kind, nurturing nursery who I cannot recommend enough. My son loved attending from 12 months until 4 years old. He now attends the PKC holiday clubs with his sister, loving the fun activities they complete. The staff are all really caring and always put the children first. My son had various allergies and the kitchen worked with us to make sure he always had a delicious meal and didn't feel left out when others had treats such as cakes. The facilities are great - especially the huge garden and outdoor toys. They know all of the children so well and support with all aspects of their care - thank you to all the staff for all the fun, care and nurturing you provide.
Our youngest child is now attending Pennies at Newnham Court and we are just as thrilled with the care she receives, the opportunities for indoor and outdoor play, huge variety of activities, crafts and games as we were with our eldest. The staff in the rooms are excellent, they really get to know each child and build great relationships with them and with us as parents. She is so happy to attend each day and tells us about the friends she's made and things she's done. The management team and the facilities are all excellent too, and she loves the food which is a huge bonus for us!!
My son has been with Pennies since April. The staff have been excellent and so supportive given how he has struggled with settling in. Big shout out to a particular member of staff in Supernovas that has been so supportive of him and really helped getting him comfortable. My little one happily runs into nursery ready for a fun day ahead!
Pennies is a home away from home. A little professional haven for little ones. After 4 years at Pennies, my daughter not only flourished but made some healthy relationships, and is confident, eloquent, and way ahead of her peers. She has not completely left Pennies as we still use PKC. So, if you are looking for a place where you don't have to worry about what your little one spent the day doing, what they ate or did not eat, who played with, and where their interests lie, then get your little one into Pennies.
Our daughter has been attending Pennies since she was a baby and is now at school and moved into PKC. She's always loved Pennies and has made some great friends there. We as parents have never had any complaints at all and think it's a fantastic setting. All the staff truly care and we are so pleased we found Pennies!
Pennies are exceptional in every way. My daughter had such a positive experience attending their setting and I'd highly recommend to any other parent to send their child to Pennies. Communication is brilliant, the setting is always clean and the staff are so friendly, kind, and caring.
