Cannot speak highly enough of kidorable. We moved back to the UK after a few years abroad, with our three-year-old Scarlet and Kidorable staff were absolutely amazing in her adjustment back to the UK way of life and understanding her. She has progressed far beyond what we expected. Special thanks to Emma, Sharon and all the magnificent staff there, and also to the owners who work so hard to run this lovely little school.

My boy has been here from 4 months old, he is now 15 months old. He has quite a few dietary issues and we have had to keep adjusting what he can/can't eat. They have all been brilliant with this issue and in general everyone too. Everyone says hello and asks how we all are. We feel like family, I feel very lucky to have found such a great place for my boy to be while I work.

Lovely place, very friendly, couldn't be happier as parents to send our child there. He has so much fun and has opportunities to play with different toys, arts and crafts, messy painting and outside sometimes all in 1 session, wouldn't hesitate in recommending Kidorable to anyone who will listen!

An absolutely horrendous nursery! Many of the staff at this place seem to be completely uneducated imbeciles.... and they are left to look after and "teach" children?!? Some of the staff are extremely rude and unhelpful when spoken to and to each other! I for one would not put my children in this place if they actually paid ME! AVOID!!!!

Made enquiries here, though I did not take my child to this nursery due to proximity, the staff were so lovely and consistent.
