Outdoor space

Children enjoy being outdoors and show good physical skills. Babies show confidence as they begin to explore and move around well-placed furniture and equipment. Toddlers test their skills as they jump off a small step, landing safely on two feet. Pre-school children enjoy running around the outdoors, looking for hidden dinosaurs and exclaiming in delight when they find one.

My husband and I are so pleased with Kidsgrove., Our youngest daughter is disabled with severe learning difficulties and the nursery works effortlessly making sure all her needs are met. The staff are friendly and very supportive in answering any questions we have and replying in a timely manner. We also feel confident in their training abilities and the health and safety of our children. Our Little ones love to play here, also learning so much from the staff/activities/play areas they provide so much by providing a home away from home lifesytle. Using an old school building for a nursery adds a little nostalgia I can share with both my daughters that come here. Both our girls come across more confident every time we pick them up from the moment we leave her for the day. Our youngest doesn't want to leave by running towards the toys & their outside play area. We recommend KG being an absolute gem and I would recommend it to any parent wishing to choose a nursery in a heartbeat to anyone.

Just a quick review. a really heartwarming nursery with wrap around care. We have a disabled daughter that loves coming here. Such an amazing team. What struck me the most was our kids… all happy, clearly loved from the time they enter the building to when they leave. I am glad that we chose kidsGrove Nursery for our daughters. They are very well cared for, loved, integrated and supported. All the staff are amazing, approachable and full of optimism. The app is regularly updated to let you know what your little ones have been upto. The staff are always happy to help (responding to email in a timely manner etc) listening to any worries you may have at nursery and at home and are really friendly. Highly recommended

My child went to Cherubs for four years before Kidsgrove took over. He seems happier now than he was when it was Cherubs. Sometimes we have to fight to get him to leave, would recommend to friends.
