Our daughter started at Kindred in Sept 2024 aged 1.5y after we moved to the area, the staff were brilliant with settling her in and making her feel happy and safe. I love the Satchel app they use for updates throughout the day. The staff have also been brilliant dealing with multiple allergies and I love that everything is included so I don't need to worry about nappies and wipes. My daughter comes home telling me everyone she's played with during the day and she goes in every morning with a smile and a wave. They've also organised little trips out and bring extra resources into the setting for the children to enjoy. The messy play ideas are so creative and means I don't have all the clean up at home! Thanks to all the staff who are so kind and caring!

Great nursery. My son has been at Orchards since he was a baby and absolutely loves it. The staff in each room are amazing, thoughtful and always so caring. Any questions are answered in a timely manner and parents' evenings are always informative.

We love Orchards for our child. They are caring, supportive and genuinely make your child feel special. Nothing feels like too much trouble and our child has thrived in the environment, no matter what room they’ve been in.

This is a wonderful nursery with truly caring, children-focused staff who help and nurture every child's development focusing on lots of fun and making each day thoroughly enjoyable for the children. My son has flourished at this nursery and loves his time there.

When choosing the best nursery for my daughter it had to be Kindred St Neots Nursery and Pre-school, they made going back to work a lot easier for me, knowing that she is looked after to the very best and always has the best time, the app is brilliant for keeping parents up to date, love seeing posts come through while I’m at work knowing she’s having a lovely day. The staff are so lovely, the garden space they have is perfect so much room and activities for the kids.

Both of my children have attended this nursery (11 year old girl and 4 year old boy) the youngest of which has just started school. They still talk about how much they miss their time and the staff there. We always felt it was such a safe and educational space for the children, the things they have learned and the social skills they have picked up have been invaluable in making them who they are today. The staff always went out of their way to cater for each of the children's needs and to organise events, trips and visits from the local firemen, animal experts (along with the various animals) etc. The food is also of a very high standard, we've often had some brought home to us and we have even stolen the fish pie recipe for ourselves! I genuinely couldn't recommend Kindred St Neots Nursery and Pre-school enough!

Our little girl is thriving at Kindred St Neots Nursery and Pre-school and I could honestly write forever about how wonderful all the staff are. They make you feel like part of the family and truly care about the children, always looking for ways to enhance what they do. They take time to get to know the children and do what they can to personalise their experiences when in their care. In addition, they go above and beyond to help! Not long after starting, we had concerns about our daughter's development (nothing to do with the nursery!) and arranged a meeting with the team, I can honestly say they were incredible, ensuring she got the support she needed. Not only that, but they continued to help even after the initial meeting and provided us with both the practical, and emotional, support we needed! Kindred St Neots Nursery and Pre-school are amazing and we are so thankful for everything they do.

Our son attends the nursery and he has come on in leaps and bounds in terms of physical and social abilities. He seems to have a great time in the sand pit and with all the activities that the nursery set for him to do. The staff clearly work so hard to create variety and fun and they go on day trips outside of the nursery which is one of the big reasons we picked this nursery as not many others in the area do that.

Brilliant nursery and pre-school - highly recommended. Lots of activities for the children, visits to the park and church, great learning environment. Nutritious food is served and with ideas and input from parents. We are kept informed and updated on our son's progress.

Orchards is a fantastic nursery and preschool setting. Both of our children have attended and have both thrived here. The team are wonderful. Every day the children come out with a huge smile on their face after a busy day full of a variety of activities. They have both been supported with all areas of development, with all educational and emotional needs being given the attention they need. They have such a variety of activities, both in and out of the setting, they are involved with the local community including the church and visits to the local nursing homes, and regular walks out to the park, visits from the farm and science professor and music man. Initiatives such as cool and chat boxes that they prepare and send home are also great. They are a very caring and enthusiastic team, lead by a fantastic management team. They always have time to talk and listen. There are plenty of opportunities to visit such as Mother’s Day/ Father’s Day teas. I couldn’t recommend Orchards enough.

My daughter has been attending Kindred St Neots Nursery and Pre-school since she was 9 months old, she is now nearly 4. All the staff have been brilliant with my daughter and I believe know my daughter and her personality well. Lovely when we see updates or when staff are chatty at the gate. When I had to attend a funeral last year, the manager was very accommodating and allowed my daughter to go in for a day that she doesn't usually attend so my partner and I could go to the funeral. When my daughter leaves to go to school in September, we will be sad to leave Kindred but believe Kindred have set her up well for school.

A fantastic nursery where they focus on supporting children through every development stage, making every day different and fun! Our son has been with the nursery for a year now and they have always provided great care and attention to him. We love the little extra touches, like the family cook-together boxes!

My little boy has attended Kindred St Neots Nursery and Pre-school from age 1 to 4 and during that whole time, the team and environment at Kindred has been fantastic. My little boy is highly sensitive but both me and him have always been listened to and he has always been treated as an individual. Nothing is ever too much trouble: my son needed to be held to fall asleep and needed to wear lots of layers to go outside due to cold sensitivity: no problem at all. Food is varied, healthy and nutritious and prepared freshly onsite. You are kept up to date on all training and development staff undertake and I was always impressed by this: safeguarding and accreditation, let alone their “outstanding” Ofsted result! My son comes home every day full of excitement about the new activities he has done that day: learning about nature, different cultures, managing emotions, arts and crafts, moving their body - the breadth of topics and how they are delivered is incredible. Highly recommend!

Fantastic nursery with lovely staff. Excellent communication with an app to keep you updated on your child’s day, including pictures. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others looking for care for their child.

My child has been so happy at Kindred St Neots Nursery and Pre-school. The staff are always very friendly and everyone knows him by name which is very nice. The variety of activities and food is great. We can't recommend it enough.
05 March 2024
Very happy we chose this nursery from a number that we viewed. Staff have always been great on daily handover, asking plenty of questions and sharing updates of our child’s day. Swift communications via the app they use and regular updates, food, sleep routine and pictures are provided there. Visited a few events and witnessed first-hand how great the staff are with the kids and ours has come on leaps and bounds in their care.

This nursery has been superb for our 3-year-old for the last couple of years. I have seen her confidence, learning, and social skills grow significantly through the excellent team of people at Orchards. There are regular updates on progress, daily through the Kindred site, face to face, and by allowing parents in for activities and to share special days. There seems to be a great people focus at the nursery, my child runs into the nursery being so happy to go there and is always greeted with huge smiles and care that is obviously through the culture that has been created there. She always comes out happy and talks about what she's done that day. A good variety of food that is both nutritional but also helps our child to experience new flavours. Cannot recommend this place enough. It's the people that make it. The team is great.

This is a fantastic nursery and preschool. My daughter has been going here since she was 1 and has just recently started preschool. The staff are all brilliant and the thing I love the most is that I feel they all truly know my daughter and provide her with the best care. My daughter loves going here and always comes home with a big smile after I know she has had a great day! I highly recommend this nursery and it’s been the best support for my family.
05 March 2024
Orchards is a fantastic nursery and preschool due to the kind, caring, and warmhearted staff and creative learning ideas they have. It's a fun safe space for our child. I love how they include the parents and invite us in. Couldn't recommend them more. Don't ever change! Thank you!

My son attended Orchard Day Nursery from a baby until school where I felt he was prepared for the big change to school due to the staff's care and attention to detail. They have always felt like an extended part of the family. My daughter now attends the same nursery where she is thriving in a caring and stimulating environment. The staff are always there with a smile on their face and genuinely happy to see her. We have lots of activities at home to support her learning and get regular feedback and photos which is always lovely to see her enjoying herself in the different activities during the day.
