My son has been attending Kiddies Playhouse for around 9 months and he absolutely loves it. The staff take wonderful care of him, and I can clearly see his independence growing. It is so reassuring to see how happy and settled he is, especially when he wants to stay and keep playing even when I come to pick him up. I really enjoy seeing his observations on the app, as it is lovely to know what he gets up to during the day and how I can support his learning at home. The termly meetings are also very much appreciated, and you can really see how much care and detail the team put into supporting him. Any worries I have are always dealt with quickly, which gives me real peace of mind. I also really appreciate that they provide halal food, as this is not something all nurseries offer and it means a lot to our family. I was quite anxious about sending him to nursery at first, but the care and support from the team has been amazing. Thank you all for everything you do. You are truly amazing.

I would highly recommend Kiddies Playhouse to anyone. My son, who has additional needs, attends this nursery, and the support we’ve received has been incredible. The staff have gone above and beyond to provide the right resources and activities for his development, and all their efforts are truly paying off. The positive impact on both my son and myself has been immense, and I cannot thank them enough for their dedication and care.

I cannot sing the praises of the nursery enough. Each time we have entered the nursery room, it is always very clean and set up with varied activities to provide sensory experiences and to develop different motor and communication skills. My daughter’s key worker simran and NImra and the star ladies two manager who’s name I forgot and her colleague have been outstanding. Their communication with me as a parent allows me to know where my child is up to in her development and any areas that they are working on to improve. They also give me huge confidence knowing my children are looked after like their own parent. If wondering to give your kids don’t hesitate and bring I have been to many nursery this is the best 5 star would give 100 if possible
