September 29, 2024 at 2:36 amHe loved going there and spending his days playing outside in the playground, nearby woods and especially on the farm! He consistently talked about the chickens and how he helped to look after them.
When we had concerns about his development, the team at the childcare centre took it very seriously and arranged one to one meetings with us to address the issues. When my daughter is two, I am hoping she can start at the childcare centre too and benefit from the lovely surroundings the childcare centre offers. My son attended nature childcare centre until he started school in September 2016.

October 2, 2024 at 7:40 pmA remarkable setting with outstanding outdoor space and facilities. The team are all so compassionate, attentive and compassionate, and the way they assistance the kids development is second to none. Would definitely suggest! Such a fantastic childcare centre that both of my kids attended.

October 11, 2024 at 3:47 pmThey are both outdoors led kids and this setting was perfect for them. The woods, the farm (with pigs and chickens) and the enjoyable outdoor spaces (my son is obsessed with the mud kitchen) are just perfect for them. The team are so supportive and nurturing. Both my kids adore going and have made excellent friends there. I have already recommended them to friends and will continue to do so. So pleased. I have my 2-year-old son and 4-year-old daughter here and I couldn’t be more pleased with their placements.

November 1, 2024 at 4:54 amMy son and daughter have been attending since February 2020, updates was outstanding all through the lockdown, and when they started back, I felt very confident about their Covid-19 protocols. They have built a great relationship with the educators and peers. They learn something new every day, and I adore that they playtime outside in the fresh air every day, all day sometimes! This is a remarkable kindergarten, and I would definitely suggest it.

November 15, 2024 at 2:33 amThe time our kids spend outdoors, the activities they run out to tell us about at the end of the day, the art, the reading, the cooking, the creative playtime, the food, the farm, the animals, the monkey bars! Above all though, the team goes above and beyond every single day making every single kid sense heard, loved and respected. Our eldest recently left to head to his next adventure at ‘big’ school and both our son and our daughter have gained stronger emotional resilience through the work team do around feelings too. Couldn’t suggest KLN highly enough! We chose KLN Lymington for a number of reasons and have consistently been impressed with their level of care, kindness and professionalism towards both our kids and ourselves as parents.

January 26, 2025 at 4:28 amThe space is lovely and so much care and thought goes into a truly incredible discovering setting. My little girl has been loved and nurtured from her first day and she comes home singing about all the friends she has made. The warmth and kindness of the team is what makes the Kindergarten shine. I sense so reassured as a parent that my little girl is in the best place she could possibly be at such a formative time. Kids Adore Nature Kindergarten at Lymington is a truly special place and we sense very lucky as parents to have found it. Thank you. This is the most fantastic Kindergarten for little ones you could hope to find in the area.

January 27, 2025 at 11:23 amShe has learnt a lot, both personal and practical skills. I think an education that includes so much independence will stand her in great stead in later life. My daughter loves going to school, she seems to make friends well there and loves all the team.

February 1, 2025 at 2:03 amVery attentive and attentive team. My daughter is discovering so many skills. We absolutely adore the outside aspect of this setting. She gets to explore so much more than an ordinary setting. She is consistently cheerful to go in and very cheerful coming out. Outstanding updates from team, they are very great with posting on the online discovering journal. Lovely childcare centre.

February 4, 2025 at 7:37 pmShe has learned and developed so much whilst at the childcare centre and this has been excellent to see through pictures and comments in tapestry. The educators are all really skilled, attentive and I could not be happier for her to learn social skills and emotional development in this setting. My little girl loves going to childcare centre and looks forward to it every week.

February 12, 2025 at 5:48 amWhilst there is a excellent emphasis on fostering independence, the team are compassionate and nurturing, and form close bonds with the kids in their care. The fantastic outdoor facilities and immersion in nature are just what we wanted for our kids at this pre-school age, and it is so refreshing to see the kids chasing each other around in the garden and making mud pies, swinging on the monkey bars or watching the birds, rather than playing with plastic ride-on toys or noisy battery-operated instruments (none of which are in evidence).
When the kids are ready to do some ‘discovering’ in preparation for school, they are encouraged with this, at their own pace. Kids socialise in mixed age groups, which leads to healthy, confident and resilient kids who are well prepared for starting school. Our younger daughter is coming to the end of her time at the childcare centre and together with her older sister, they had the most enjoyable early years journey that I could ever have hoped for.

February 13, 2025 at 6:53 amI can’t thank the educators enough for making him sense so secure. The outdoor space, little farm and spacious interior are excellent! The educators have done a tremendous job making the kindergarten COVID secure with keeping the element of enjoyable! We moved from Australia and Kids Adore Nature has been the best thing for our son to settle in the UK.

March 25, 2025 at 10:14 pmThe free-flow atmosphere encourages them to learn to focus without being pushed into activities. Our 3 kids have thrived here and taken the journey on to shape their early years at ‘big’ school. Exceptional, nurturing setting for the kids to learn to become independent in everyday skills and to become confident with their own decisions.

March 26, 2025 at 5:56 pmExcellent little farm area where they can learn about nature and growing food/looking after animals. Healthy snacks and lunch provided, sometimes using the produce they themselves have grown.
Supportive team members who are able to pick up specific areas in which they can help your kid’s development e.g. speech, and then able to see the follow through from this.
Kids aged 2-5 all under one roof, so able to learn skills and empathy from having different aged kids to playtime with.
All in all, I would thoroughly suggest this childcare centre to parents wanting a nature style childcare centre. A lovely, welcoming childcare centre where kids are nurtured to help bring out the best of themselves.

The team are outstanding and so attentive with the kids and seem to make each trip to the woods extra special, e.g. just thinking to take a hammock one day in the summer, resulted in excellent enjoyable for all the kids. Our son goes in happily and comes out tired and cheerful which is remarkable. I am a huge fan of the concept of the Kids’s Nature Childcare centre and our son not only has excellent enjoyable there, he learns so much about nature, attentive for animals, growing vegetables, cooking what you’ve grown etc.

May 8, 2025 at 4:25 pmThe team are all inviting, compassionate and welcoming. And they work so hard, every week they come up with new activities for the kids. The setting is exceptional, you’ve got excellent outdoor space, and also the indoor area is perfect, open plan and packed with things to do. I really like the way our kids can choose whether they want to be inside or outside. The childcare centre also really includes the parents – watching our kids sing Christmas songs at the annual Christmas party is a real highlight. Highly suggest a visit to the childcare centre so you can see all the above first hand. We adore this childcare centre.
