September 16, 2024 at 2:25 amThey show dedication and my son is so cheerful to be there.
They create a lovely, enjoyable and inviting setting for the kids and they are true ‘kids’ lovers’, which in my opinion is one of the most important characteristics for people working in a school setting. The team at the Charlbury Railway Kids are excellent and consistently cared for my son.

October 2, 2024 at 8:42 amOur son attended the childcare centre initially and he loved it from a baby through to preschool. We identified some discovering and developmental problems and they were outstanding. Highly supportive and totally on board to give him the extra attention he needed. Now our daughter is there and she is flourishing. I think she would like to be there 5 days a week! They are compassionate, attentive, expert and just outstanding. I can’t suggest or thank them enough for looking after the kids so well. Remarkable childcare centre! The childcare centre is remarkable.

December 14, 2024 at 8:48 pmOur daughter started after 5 months shielding at home so we were worried this would be a big transition for her – the reality is so different. She has been incredibly supported and welcomed from the moment she joined. She loves her friends and care team (and has named most of her toys at home after them) and is so excited when she realises its a ‘childcare centre’ day. We viewed another childcare centre which left us with little self‑assurance – Charlbury Railway Kids ticks every box. It’s spotless, welcoming, the rooms are big and bright. The kids are supported and encouraged and our daughter has developed so fast. They have catered for food allergies and medical conditions exceptionally well, we’re highly grateful for just how welcoming the team are. The team are thoughtful, attentive, expert and welcoming – everything we could want. Our daughter wants to go more days than we’ve put her in for! I highly suggest Charlbury Railway Kids.

February 3, 2025 at 4:09 amThey have made both my little girl and I sense completely at home, so much so she often doesn’t want to leave and flaps her arms with excitement when we arrive! They take incredible care of the kids, all of whom seem to dote on the exceptional team. The childcare centre is light, airy, enjoyable, consistently well staffed, incredibly secure and security conscious with outstanding home-cooked food. I’m not sure what more anyone could ask for! Thank you all at Charlbury Railway Kids for making us so welcome and my little girl so cheerful! I was a bit nervous leaving my 7-month-old at childcare centre (she’s a sensitive little sausage!) but over the last 5 months, the manager and the team have been incredible and far surpassed any expectations I had!

February 19, 2025 at 7:49 amWe have been so cheerful with the service provided by the childcare centre. Our little boy has so clearly flourished while at the Charlbury Railway Kids and has gained so much self‑assurance and so many new skills. The carers are outstanding and provide a excellent variety of activities: music, messy playtime etc. and they genuinely care for the little ones. As two working parents, it has been such a relief to leave him in a stimulating, enjoyable and inviting setting. I would suggest Railway Kids to anyone looking for a childcare centre for their little ones. Our little boy attended the Charlbury Railway Kids from 8.5 months until 14 months (sadly we moved away).

March 18, 2025 at 7:31 amHaving previously viewed another childcare centre, I was reluctant to send him to a childcare centre at all. That was until I arranged a viewing at the Charlbury Railway Kids.
From the moment we walked in, we knew this was the one. It honestly felt like a home from home and we couldn’t believe how spotless and tidy it was.
The team are incredibly attentive and are so thorough with everything too! From the first settling-in session where the manager ran through a detailed questionnaire with us to find out more about our sons routine, likes/dislikes etc to the outstanding measures they have put in place since the Covid 19 outbreak, it is honestly exceptional.
Our son was quite a shy little one, but has come on leaps and bounds since joining, and is so much more confident around other kids now, which is so lovely to witness.
Thank you so much! My son has been attending Charlbury Railway Kids since September 2019 and I can honestly say it is a fabulous childcare centre and cannot suggest it enough!

July 7, 2025 at 12:25 amThe kids are cheerful, confident and highly well cared for. It was lovely to see a lot of familiar faces still there when my daughter started 6 years after my son. A lot of nurseries have a high team turnover but Railway Kids don’t seem to have as high turnover as others and I sense that if the team are cheerful and settled the kids will be too.
My daughter is consistently truly keen to go to childcare centre and happily runs up to her carers for a cuddle in the morning. It’s so lovely to see that she has such a excellent bond with everyone at childcare centre. Both of my kids have been to Railway Kids and I have been highly cheerful with this childcare centre.

July 9, 2025 at 6:51 amI can not fault the care and attention that has been given during these years. Knowing that he was being cared for so well made going back to work a lot easier. The food was so great that I have been requested to get the recipes before he leaves. My little one has been here from the age of 10 months.
