About this day nursery
Kiddiecare Nurseries is dedicated to fostering intellectual, physical, emotional, and social development in a happy and serene setting. The nursery promotes confidence and independence through a balanced educational programme aligned with the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum, tailored to meet each child's individual needs.
They aim to prepare children for the future by building a strong foundation for a sound education. The nursery focuses on providing gentle and loving care for even the youngest children, prioritising their comfort, safety, and early sensory development.
The curriculum is designed to spark natural curiosity, encourage critical thinking, problem-solving, and a love for learning through age-appropriate activities. Emotional well-being is central, with a supportive environment that helps children develop self-confidence, manage emotions, and build healthy peer relationships.
Kiddiecare also ensures children receive nutritious meals for their energy and development. The facilities are clean and include a canteen with healthy food and a large playground, promoting a holistic learning and growth experience for every child.

My daughter started not long ago nursery and she is very happy that she can play with kids after all this period of isolation. Staff are very friendly, reassuring and proactive in childcare. I noted progress in my daughter's achievements and I am very pleased with that. They do have plenty of activities for children and they do not get bored and they spend lot of time outdoors, which is very important. I do recommend this place for kids to spend time and for parents to be confident to leave their children with the trained staff at Ashdown Nursery 😃

Such an amazing nursery- the Ladies really go above and beyond to make all the children happy and feel secure. Such amazing activities and facilities. Amazing garden for the children to play. They keep you posted through out the day so you know what your child is up to and how they are getting on. Highly recommend KiddieCare Ashdown.

A wonderful nursery with very friendly and caring staff. My son has been attending on and off since last year but full time since March (after lockdown ended) and has been so happy that he actually misses the nursery when he is not there. He has made many friends and is constantly talking about 'Marie'. The manager is very supportive and it is comforting to know he is taken good care of. He has learnt so much and taken more interest in his food since starting two months ago. Highly recommended in all areas.
