Keiki has been an amazing part of our London family for our 4 year old (and 18 month old) over the last 3.5 years. Every time we dropped them off it was so reassuring to know that they were in a loving and caring environment. They helped to give our kids (and us) the love and support we all needed. Plus can’t forget to mention how much our kids have learnt there too! Was really hard to say goodbye to everyone at Keiki ahead of going back to NZ. You won’t regret choosing Keiki for a nursery for your little ones.

My daughter spent a very happy two years at Keiki. I'd highly recommend this nursery. We first chose the nursery because of its peaceful location away from main roads. The staff are warm and friendly and my daughter felt at home here and learnt and developed so much. Highlights included the weekly Spanish music classes (bilingual beats) and learning about different cultures through 'country of the month'.

Choosing a nursery is one of the hardest things you have to do as a parent. We are so glad that we found Keiki. We decided to send our little one to Keiki despite the option of more local / convenient nurseries for a few reasons: 1) the team are incredibly caring - you can tell that they are genuinely there because they are passionate about working with children. They always have a smile on their face 2) it’s a family run business and the manager sends her own children there. Being family-run, they are less rigid / more flexible than some other nurseries and have often accommodated extra days for us at really short notice. You can really tell that the person who handles the recruitment and training of staff has children herself - because their team have the most important childcare skills - kindness, warmth, patience. 3) they have their own dedicated chef, and all meals are cooked freshly on site. Our son is vegan, and they have fully accommodated his vegan diet, with staff taking extra care at meal times to ensure he gets the right food 4) learning - I really feel that our child has learnt a lot at nursery - from arts and crafts, to cooking - to learning to share and play with other kids. All in all, I would definitely recommend Keiki - a big thank you to Chelsea and all the team at Keiki for the wonderful work you do taking care of our little one every day. It has made going back to work so much easier knowing that our little one is happy and in safe hands.

Our 4 yr old is just finishing up at Keiki now and we’re getting quite emotional. The nursery and especially the staff have been incredible over the last 3 years. staying open, staying positive and keeping the energy and care up that’s needed to look after little ones and keep them stimulated. All during the pandemic. Thank you!
