Since my son has been coming to Kiddicare nursery I have seen a real big difference with his development and behaviour. I am very happy I have chosen this nursery for my son as the staff are extremely helpful and always do their best. I feel very lucky that my child attends this nursery as he really has changed and improved in such a good and positive way.. with a big thanks to the staff! As they really do care about the children’s needs. I highly recommend Kiddicare nursery and I’d like to say a BIG thank you! To staff for supporting my child and helping him with his development, social skills and behaviour.

Our 2 and a half years old daughter has been attending Kiddicare nursery for over a year now and we chose them after researching and visiting 3-4 other nurseries before. She loves her carers, goes there happily every morning and is greeted every single day with warmth and smiles. The staff do an amazing job communicating and collaborating with the parents to provide adapted and appropriate care. The program is pedagogical and stimulating whilst making activities enjoyable and fun for the children. They sing, read books, paint and do crafts, learn about nature and what surrounds them and how to be nice and respectful to everything and everyone. The meals are vegetarian, all freshly prepared, rich in fruits and vegetables. We are very happy with our nursery and highly recommend it.

My sons have attended Kiddicare Nursery in Pinner for the last 2 years and I am very happy with the care and support they receive there. They happily enter the nursery every morning and are greeted by warm and attentive staff members. They have made many friends at the nursery and come home talking about their friends, teachers, what they played with and all the fun activities they did. Their classroom is stimulating and they are provided with freshly cooked, healthy meals everyday. Their speech, vocabulary, knowledge of number, fine and gross motor skills as well as general knowledge have dramatically improved since attending. Most importantly, I know my children are happy and safe at the nursery. I feel comfortable sending them there and I know they are well looked after. Kiddicare is a fantastic nursery and I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.

Our second son has been at Kiddicare for just over a year now and we’ve had a wonderful experience during this time. He has really come along in his development (motor skills, language, social skills) over his time with the nursery and we are so thankful for their huge efforts. The staff are incredibly attentive and caring day to day and go above and beyond in creating a joyful environment for the children. We had our first son in another high end nurserie in Pinner, and based in our experiences, Kiddicare way better in every single aspect. Can not recommend it high enough. We feel extremely lucky they are nurturing our son's life with their care, love and teaching. It feels we work as a solid team between home and nursery!
