Delighted with the care and development the nursery provides for my little one. He runs into the nursery at drop off and is happy to see all the staff. The range of activities that they set up for the children is brilliant and makes it easy to know they are well looked after. When the staff update us on pick up, they make us feel like they have only been looking after our wee one which is definitely a skill. Overall, would definitely recommend the nursery to anyone looking for a safe and caring environment for there child.

Third child now in Kirkintilloch Nature Kindergarten and I've always loved the caring and familiar nature off the staff. They are excellent at knowing the children as individuals and keeping you up to date with what they've been up to and any issues that might arise. Always do their best to accommodate requests. The in house kitchen means freshly cooked meals and my kids have always benefited from trying new things and having a hot lunch. The newly renovated garden is a great environment and my middle boy in particular loves outdoor play they encourage.

My son started at the nursery in October 2023 and he has settled in really well. He was given lots of settling-in days which really helped prepare us both for the transition. The staff have been great and can always give me a good update on what my little boy has been up to each day. I also love the app for getting regular updates on how my son's skills are developing. I can see by how happy my little boy is at nursery that he has a good relationship with the staff and I feel they really care about his well-being.

We appreciate the regular updates we get about our children’s progress. We love seeing the photos and hearing about their learning. There has been such a wonderful improvement in communication and the team are really making a big effort to engage with families. It is always a joy to read an update and picture them at nursery. We have had all 3 of our children at the nursery over the last 7 years. My children have never had a complaint about the nursery or staff once, they have thoroughly enjoyed every day and I can see they are loved. Thank you.

Everyone's lovely. My child is really happy and arrives and leaves with a big smile on her face. I can tell she's well looked after. Communication is excellent. All staff are kind and caring and know my child very well.

Fantastic nursery! Our daughter absolutely loves coming here, and we are so happy with the service. It’s a great feeling being able to drop her off and know that she will be well looked after, and have lots of fun! All the staff working there are so lovely and approachable. You can tell they are all dedicated to what they do. We feel that we are always kept in the loop about what is going on and love to get updates on what fun activities our daughter has been up to during the week.

As a first time mother, I was so apprehensive when it came to choosing a nursery for my son. From the website, to my first show round, to meeting all the staff, I had nothing but good vibes from this nursery. My son absolutely loves to go to nursery school. He doesn't even bother with me leaving him and walks into the nursery arms open wide happy to see every single member of staff for a cuddle. Action always speaks louder than words and this tells me the staff are so attentive to my son, that he knows there's always cuddles and love waiting on him at nursery. My son's speech has came on amazingly since starting two months ago, I can't quite believe the difference myself. The staff always let me know how his day has been and their communication is spot on, I am fully informed about my son's whole day. There's no words to describe how reassured I am leaving my son in this nursery's care when I go to work. Thank you to all the staff for being truly amazing and nurturing!

As a first time Mum, I was really nervous about putting my child into nursery so I could return to work. All staff at KNK are extremely professional, knowledgable and approachable, making me feel completely at ease as a parent. The nursery has great communication with us as parents, whether this be updates and photos, further learning opportunities or information about what is coming up at the nursery. Most importantly, my daughter has been attending nursery since before she was 1 and her reaction to going to nursery tells me everything I need to know. She literally runs into the building smiling and is so excited to spend time with the staff and other children. Every member of staff I have spoken to has known my child extremely well, clearly have great relationships with her and I fully trust them and believe they want the best for her.

The staff are all wonderful and caring, my child (who is in the under 2's room) loves going there. The staff are great at keeping parents informed and updated and I think it is a really nice environment. My child eats well, sleeps well and always seems delighted to be there.

Our child loves going to this nursery and we’ve seen him grow into a confident and fun little boy. His language has been coming on well and he has loved exploring new rooms as he moves up each stage at the nursery. The meals always sound great and he usually eats most or all of his food so enjoys it! I love that they encourage him to be independent and he loves to be helpful. The staff provide excellent care and there is a lovely, friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

The nursery is excellent and the staff really are wonderful. I feel so reassured when I drop my little one off that she will be well looked after. She has great days at nursery. I love hearing what she's been up to. If we need to be contacted when she's in nursery, the staff always approach this in an appropriate way. They really care. Another reassuring aspect - they're always striving to make changes to improve. For example, working to improve the outdoor facilities. We are kept updated with everything and if we ever need to speak to a member of staff, it is never a problem. So grateful to this nursery!

We love Kirkintilloch Nature Kindergarten! Both our boys have attended since they were 9 months old, and we have been so happy with it. The ladies are all great, and their meals are being made fresh on the premises. They grow vegetables in the garden and have lots of time outside.

My daughter has been at Kirkintilloch Nature Kindergarten for almost two years and really enjoys it. The staff are all friendly and helpful and seem genuinely interested in what's happening with my daughter. I love that all food and drink is included - one huge thing less to think about everyday and the menu is always varied. I can see that she's learning at nursery and enjoys the activities.
05 July 2023
When we drive into nursery our child cheers because she is so happy to be at nursery. She loves the staff and being with her friends. We love all the activities the staff do with the children and we have found that our child has come on leaps and bounds since attending nursery. Her speech is fantastic and she surprises us with new words and phrases every day. The variety of food is also fantastic and the staff provide options and encourage the children to serve themselves which is great for building confidence.

My daughter started with the nursery (she was just 2 years at that time) in November 2022, it didn’t take her long to settle in because of the experience, very attentive and also nurturing staff that made her transition so smooth. We had the usual tears during the initial drop off but she settled in quickly with the reassurance from the staff. She has thoroughly enjoyed her time with the nursery and there are actually days where we couldn’t get her to leave the school. We are also always kept up to date with her activities during pick up and we were also informed on any mishaps or accidents immediately, which is very much appreciated knowing that our daughter is very well cared for.

Staff genuinely care about the children here. They are always keen to pass on stories and information. Our child loves going to nursery, is well looked after, comes home happy, well fed and tired. I'm more than happy with the care and attention she gets.

My three child attend Kidsplay and absolutely love it. The staff are very caring and easy to chat to. Management are always happy to chat and are quick to resolve any issues. My only comment is that since Covid there has been a lot less updates for my younger two boys via the portal.
18 April 2022
Staff are so friendly. Interaction from the kids to staff is always excellent. My kids particularly love the outdoor aspects of the nursery. It's like an extended family for the kids, my girl, who left for school in 2021, loved it and my boy, who is currently there, looks forward to going every day. The staff and manager couldn't have been any more accommodating when we really needed them for extra help for a personal matter and still go above and beyond.

My daughter started the nursery this month, the girls have taken their time well before her start date to settle her in (which I think hasn’t been easy). Everyone is so friendly and helpful, which puts my mind at ease every time I drop her off! Thank you so much for reassuring both my daughter and me at the stressful time of returning to work.

I cannot rate this nursery highly enough. The staff are extremely considerate, gentle and caring and helped my son through a long settling period with as little distress as possible. A year on, he is delighted to go to nursery and talks about the staff and other children fondly. Outside play is really important to us a family and we’re delighted that the children spend plenty of time in the garden in all weather! The management is so accommodating, friendly and helpful and I feel like everyone at Kidsplay takes a genuine interest in all of the children who attend. Thanks to all of the staff!
