Parent Reviews

"I am so thankful for Kindred Salisbury. My girl cannot wait to go and learn and play with her friends.
The staff are caring and treat our girl with love and respect. They come up with the most creative and fun activities so the children can learn. They keep us informed throughout the day, which gives us full confidence that our girl is doing fine, and when we collect her, her key worker gives us a full review of the day.
The management replies to our enquiries quickly. Also, they are thoughtful of doing activities with parents for Christmas and recently for Mother's Day.
Superb!"

"I have my second child attending the nursery and they both love it. The staff are so caring and kind. The outside area is big and has challenging and interesting play areas. I love how at the end of the session the staff tells me a little about my child's day, it shows how they really did pay attention to them individually. It is also very easy and fast to reach the nursery through the app."

"Both my children have been going to Kindred Salisbury. It's a nursery with a great ethos and a safe and lovely place. They have numerous activities for children every day, two outdoor play areas. My daughter (now at school) still remembers how staff at the nursery asked them to bring in their swimsuits as they got the paddling pools out when it was very hot in the summer. The children absolutely loved it! Staff always go with the weather and plan accordingly.
They have separated indoor areas for babies, toddlers and preschoolers, so each age group can get the most out of their time at the nursery."

Aija G
"Our son has been going to Kindred Salisbury Day Nursery and Pre-School for almost two years now and we feel it has been a great choice for him. The staff are fantastic and his confidence has grown and grown. He loves attending and his baby sister has just started and he enjoys spending time with her before she goes into Curiosity Crescent. Our daughter has settled in so well and we are really pleased with how she’s done. It makes going back to work a lot easier knowing they are both in safe hands.
Staff are always happy to answer questions about anything and management are quick at responding to any messages or helping to get kids in for extra days during the holidays.
On another note, Kindred has been so transparent and helpful with regard to the new funding hours for 2-year-olds. It’s been so easy navigating this and we feel fortunate that Kindred are able to participate in this scheme.
Thank you to all the staff who work with our kids! They love attending so much."

J M
"My boys both love their time at nursery so much. My eldest has been there for nearly three years and I didn’t hesitate to put my next son there when he was old enough. All of the nursery staff go above and beyond to give every care to everyone in their care and they are all so knowledgeable about how the boys have spent their time whilst at nursery. Communication is great and I feel confident leaving my boys there every morning knowing they will be looked after extremely well."

Kindred Salisbury Nursery and Pre-School FAQs

We offer a personalised and flexible settling-in process designed around the needs of each child and family. Our aim is to help children feel happy, secure and confident as they begin their nursery journey with us.

Session One
We ask parents or carers to stay with their child for an hour. During this session, we complete the child's All About Me, helping us get to know their routines, interests and preferences. Children will also meet their key person and become familiar with their room and surroundings.

Session Two
Lasts approximately 1.5 hours. Children stay independently while parents or carers leave the nursery. Activities are planned around each child's interests to help them feel comfortable and engaged.

Session Three
Lasts approximately 2 hours. Includes snack time, helping children become familiar with daily nursery routines.

We understand that every child settles at their own pace, so our approach is always flexible. If a child needs additional settling-in sessions or shorter visits at quieter times of the day, we will work closely with the family to provide the support needed.

Our aim is for every child to leave their settling sessions with a smile. Wherever possible, we encourage collections when children are happily engaged in an activity or enjoying their play, helping them build positive memories of nursery and look forward to their next visit.

Outdoor learning is a core part of life at Kindred Salisbury. Children have free-flow access to outdoor environments throughout much of the day and are encouraged to play outside in all seasons and weather conditions. Whether they're exploring the sensory garden, creating in the mud kitchen or enjoying imaginative play under the trees, we believe outdoor experiences support children's physical development, wellbeing and curiosity.

We offer convenient parking and secure access for families at the start and end of each day. Located on a private school site, families can use the school car park, including an area close to the nursery entrance. We also provide a buggy store for families who walk to nursery. Being close to Salisbury town centre makes the nursery easily accessible for both driving and walking families, while our secure site provides peace of mind during drop-off and pick-up times.

We have strong relationships with the local primary schools attended by our children, including a nearby school located just a short walk from the nursery. Teachers regularly visit the nursery to meet children before they start school and support the transition process.

Children can explore school-themed role play through our home corner, complete with uniforms and book bags, helping them build confidence and familiarity. We also run dedicated transition meetings for parents, sharing practical information about school readiness and how families can support their child's next steps.

We are committed to providing the highest standard of care and attention for every child, with safety as our top priority. Our staff-to-child ratios strictly adhere to and, in some cases, exceed UK regulations to ensure a secure, nurturing, and engaging environment.

Our regulated ratios are as follows:

Babies (Under 2 years): 1 staff member to every 3 children (1:3)

Toddlers (2-3 years): 1 staff member to every 5 children (1:5)

Preschoolers (3-4 years): 1 staff member to every 8 children (1:8)

By maintaining these ratios, we guarantee that each child receives the individual support, supervision, and guidance they need to thrive in a safe and monitored setting.
