Parent Reviews

"My son started when he was nine months old and left just as he was about to start foundation in a school.
The staff are fantastic, very caring and treated my son so well. He enjoyed going to nursery. The nursery always organised lots of fun activities for the children in line with the month/special event.
The graduation ceremony for the children was fun and special.
Having everything on the app to see/read what my son had done for the day was excellent. If I needed to check on my son during the day I could call up and speak to a member of staff in his room."

"ur daughter is very happy at Kindred West Bridgford. The staff are fantastic, so caring and look after our daughter so well. The chef prepares delicious home-cooked food every day, and the menu is very varied. We couldn’t recommend it enough."

"We have been extremely happy with the nursery for so many reasons. Our son is enjoying it so much and it feels good to drop him and see him going with a smile on his face. He learns a lot there and does many different activities every day. The staff are fantastic, they are all lovely and we can tell that they take good care of our son. Besides they always communicate well on how the day went and which activities they did with the kids. The app is also very helpful to keep track of it and we enjoy watching the pictures. The manager, is very nice, a good listener, very supportive and accommodative. We definitely recommend the nursery and we feel that we made an excellent choice as we know that our son is in good hands. Thank you to everyone at the nursery!"

"Thank you to the staff for taking care of and showing love towards my child when he is not with his parents. He loves going and enjoys his time. He is coming on leaps and bounds and will be sad to leave."

Kelly Bell
Nursery Manager

Hi I'm Kelly. I decided to begin my career in childcare after helping out as a parent at my son's nursery and seeing the rewards of working with children.

I now have over 20 years of experience, as well as a Level 5 in Leadership and Management and qualifications covering first aid, food hygiene and child safeguarding.

Most importantly, I have a passion for helping children develop and having worked my way up from a nursery practitioner, I now manage a thriving nursery with happy children and caring staff.

Rachel Pedder
Deputy Nursery Manager

Hello, my name is Rachel. I have worked in childcare since leaving college over 20 years ago. It's something I have always wanted to do, and I enjoy every minute.

I hold an NNEB Diploma (NVQ Level 4) as well as qualifications in Leadership, food hygiene and first aid.

I enjoy helping our children learn new things and developing new skills that they will need later in life. Seeing them achieve these milestones is always so rewarding.
