Parent Reviews

"My son has been at Kindred Cambourne for nearly two years and he has enjoyed every minute of it. Even those that he has found challenging, he has been supported throughout by the most attentive staff who have been extensions of our family. They are such a core part of his life and at no point have we ever doubted our decision to entrust him to their care. Every day, they come up with creative and innovative ways to help him develop and engage with the world around him and we are constantly impressed with the growth he shows week in and week out. The team also communicate with us really well which helps us to continue supporting his learning at home.
We will forever be grateful to the staff at Kindred Cambourne for helping us to raise our little boy and for giving him such a wonderful start."

"My experience with Kindred Nursery is really good because my 3-year-old daughter comes home singing songs that she learned at nursery. The nursery teachers are really good with the kids, sometimes things might be misplaced but you get them back on the next day at nursery. They are very helpful and supportive toward parents who are in need of help. I would recommend this nursery to anyone. The activities are great, the facilities awesome, they even involve you in the care of your child and they send pictures of their activities."

Suzette W
"The staff at this nursery are fantastic, they are so caring and really invest time in getting to know the children and their families, take enjoyment in each new learning they see and are always thinking of new activities to stimulate and excite the children. There is a real family feeling that is genuine and consistent (my son's been there for 6 months now). The food menus are also varied and sound delicious, and the rooms have lots of different spaces for a variety of activities."
