We are so happy our son is attending Kido. The new management since it took over from the old nursery are so lovely, approachable, listen to our concerns and actually act on it. My son settled it when he was 16 months fairly quickly to our surprise and it’s a credit to the staff. They are caring, communicate to us very well through the app and listen to us as parents. The Kido app is amazing and gets updated throughout the day re Meals, snacks, nappies and naps and staff are very efficient at doing this. Also, we can communicate via the app and drop a message the managers and our son’s room teachers if we wanted a photo or update on our son. Very happy with Kido and it’s lovely to see our son thrive because of all the activities they do with him and communicate with him. We also get monthly reports on our child’s progress which is always lovely to read.

We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our daughter received at 9 months nursery. The staff are incredibly warm, nurturing, and truly dedicated to creating a safe and engaging environment for the children. From the wide variety of activities that stimulate both learning and creativity to the genuine love they show for every child, it’s clear that they go above and beyond. Our daughter looked forward to going and we’ve seen her grow in confidence, skills, and social development. 9 months nursery feels like a second home, and we’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for her early years.Highly recommended!

We couldn't be happier with our experience at 9 Months Nursery! After a difficult time at a larger nursery where my daughter was upset most days, we made the switch at the beginning of the year, and it was the best decision for her. The caring and attentive team in this smaller setting helped her thrive, and her confidence grew so much, particularly with the help of the drama sessions. Now that she’s moved on to primary school, I can see just how well prepared she is, and I’m so grateful to the wonderful team at 9 Months Nursery. Highly recommend!

My daughter was a part of the 9 Months family for two years. She was always happy to go to the nursery and she called the nursery "Party "😆. Everyone in 9Months is very kind and polite. She started a school now, but still misses her "party", friends and Ramandeep. All what I want to say, thank you for making my daughter first experience of being without parents so special, she is fully prepared for a big school.
