August 9, 2022 at 12:00 amMy little boy has attended this nursery and now pre-school since he was 8 months old, he’s now 3.5. I can’t explain how much he loves the place. It’s like a big family. The staff are all so welcoming and will always help with any queries you might have. The meals served are nutritious and filling and he always goes for 2nds it’s that good! His development in speech, communication, and social ques is all down to the nursery and pre-school. For me, it’s the best one in the area.

August 12, 2022 at 12:00 amGreat nursery for service personnel, right at the front gate. Friendly staff who keep you informed throughout the day of little one’s activities. Good variety of food, and they try to encourage even the troublesome eaters to try. Always clean and well presented.

August 12, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has been coming to this nursery since the baby room, and every room with all members of staff has been amazing. The management has been kind, caring and supportive. I couldn’t ask for a better place for my son.

March 6, 2023 at 12:00 amWe are so happy with RAFA Kidz Brize Norton! I feel really reassured knowing my son is well looked after and settled at nursery. We receive lots of updates via the app and face to face during pick up and he always comes out really happy and smiley!

March 14, 2023 at 12:00 amI have two children who attend this nursery, and both are always happy and enthusiastic to go. The staff are personable, kind and attentive to the children and offer lovely activities for the children. The room leadership is strong, and the management team, whilst new, show enthusiasm and commitment to the company. I feel confident sending my children to this nursery and would recommend the setting to other families.

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amOverall a wonderful nursery! My children enjoy their time and have never not wanted to go. There’s been some great improvements over the last 12 months but it’s good to see the willingness of staff listening to us parents and improving where able. Staff are friendly and supportive of children. Management lovely and approachable.

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amA great nursery. My little girl has loved attending from day 1. All members of staff are polite and friendly. The facilities are great. Information on their day (food/sleep/nappies) is shared seamlessly on their app, the only thing missing is if we could find out more of their day to day development and what activities they’ve been doing. Otherwise a super nursery, extremely reasonable compared to others in the area and we’re very lucky to have it on our doorstep.

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amWarm, welcoming setting. Worked well to help settle my apprehensive daughter and always reassured me with messages/pictures that she was happy and having fun. Incredible staff who really understand the children and some of the tough times they go through with deployments and work together to help ease this. Would recommend to anyone looking for a setting for their children. Thank you everyone.

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amExcellent nursery with caring staff. Both my children have been happy here and made good progress in their development. Recent changes have meant staff are now more able to give written feedback regularly about my child’s learning. Staff are wonderful in each room and we have been very happy to send our children here. Some activities off site for the older children would be wonderful e.g. a nature walk locally

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amOur son attends here two mornings per week and he couldn’t be happier going to nursery. It’s reassuring to see your child happily going in and leaving with a big smile on his face. It’s the first nursery we have ever used and have had a fantastic experience. The staff are always friendly and we love the regular updates on the app. It’s great to see him thriving at such a supportive caring setting

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amWe love RAFA Kidz Brize Norton! Our son is so happy and excited to attend each and every day. All the staff, not just our son’s room staff, are friendly, helpful and welcoming. They know and recognise us, and also greet our son by name daily. The staff take great pride in their jobs caring for our son and are always happy to help and accommodate any worries we may have. Communication is super as are the weekly updates about what the nursery and our specific room have been up to each week. We can’t recommend RAFA Kidz more highly!

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy Daughter has been at this nursery for over 18 months, she has gone from strength to strength here with the support and love she has received. The food provided is excellent and offers such a variety each day.

March 29, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth my children are coming along so well here. They both love coming into the setting and always leave with smiles on their faces. Staff are very welcoming and approachable and I feel confident leaving my children in their care. Communication is great with regular updates and photographs outlining what has been happening during the day. Staff work well with parents to facilitate appointments, allergies and other requirements.

March 29, 2023 at 12:00 amSince my son has been diagnosed with ASD, RAFA Kidz have worked hard with us and the professionals to best support him in the environment with his communication and overall understanding. He’s developed so much since being there. My daughter loves going each day and has started to come out of her shell more whilst making new friends.
Thank you

March 29, 2023 at 12:00 amI am a serving member of the armed forces and find that the service provided by Rafa kids Brize Norton is nothing short of outstanding. The staff are friendly and welcoming and take an active interest in the children and the importance of their development. They have also been very accommodating when my own work commitments have changed, often affecting my drop-off or pick-up time at the 11th hour. I would highly recommend this service, and if you are a serving member of the armed forces with a child of nursery age, I would suggest it would be a foolish decision not to take advantage of the service.

March 29, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son is always well looked after and I can see he is provided with love and care whilst he is attending nursery. The nursery has taught my son his own emotions and he can clearly identify when he is happy, something that they have taught him extremely well and with care. He has learned to count confidently and can sing nursery rhymes very well! It gives me peace of mind knowing the nursery is teaching him fundamental information about day-to-day life and setting him up for success.
I cannot recommend this nursery enough!

March 29, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been going here since he was 1. The staff are absolutely lovely and have been so supportive. I’m a military mum and have had to deploy for months while he’s been going through nursery. They were amazing, helping my husband out and being supportive for my son.
