We are an award-winning group of inspiring day nurseries and pre-schools based in the UK, dedicated to providing high-quality childcare and early education. A 'big little family' of nurseries across the country, we realised that by pooling our shared passion, experience and resources we can achieve even more in our mission to create inspiring worlds of awe and wonder for little ones to thrive in.

Our nurseries are usually for children aged 0-5 years, however some of our pre-school settings are for children aged 2-5.

We aim to provide flexibility for working families, meaning many of our nurseries offer early starts and late finishes. Please speak with your nursery manager to find out the exact opening hours of your closest Kindred Nursery.
