    The team are all welcoming, and they listen to any changes/concerns. They are willing to work with you, and my daughter genuinely seems cheerful there. My daughter has been going to this childcare centre for around a month now.

    My daughter loves it there, from 9 months to now 3 years old, she has come such a long way, not only with her discovering but her eating too! I would suggest it to anyone! Thank you to all the team at Kids 1st @ Newark (Breedon House) Day Childcare centre. Such a lovely childcare centre with lovely team that truly care for the kids!

    Highly switched-on manager and passionate team in a lovely setting. Consistently do their best to assistance and accommodate. A wide range of activities for kids of all ages. Free playtime with a steady introduction of structure to prepare for primary education. Absolutely fabulous.

    Every single member of team cares about their job and the kids. They are compassionate and attentive to all our kid’s needs and they know him as well as we do as his parents.
    Dropping him off feels like leaving him with family. He loves being there!
    The facilities are incredible, the outdoor space is what initially attracted us to Kids 1st @ Newark and we have not been disappointed! From our first visit, I knew this was the childcare centre for us!

    Me and my partner viewed every childcare centre in our area and this was the only one that not only ticked all the boxes but also exceeded expectations. Right from the get go we were greeted by lovely team who took so much interest in our son and his needs were consistently met. My son tries new healthy meals which he thoroughly enjoys. He plays all day without realising he is discovering so much. He has made some lovely friends who are taught values such as attentive, kindness, sharing, taking turns etc. The only thing I can say is it was the most expensive childcare centre in the area but I firmly believe you get what you pay for here and every penny is worth it. Going back to work after maternity leave was highly hard as I had to trust someone to look after my kid the same as I would, but you instantly sense at ease. This is the best place to get your kid ready for school. I suggest it to any new parent! My son has attended this childcare centre since he was a baby and I would never send him anywhere else.

    My son absolutely loves attending childcare centre and never complains about having to go. He eats highly well, has lots and lots of enjoyable playing inside and outside, he’s made lots of friends, not only with the other kids but with the lovely team members too. He’s also highly well developed for his age which is largely down to the outstanding discovering and education provided here. I couldn’t suggest Kids 1st Day Childcare centre, Muskham Road enough.

    Team are knowledgable, enjoyable and cheerful, engaged with playtime, and genuinely committed to his social/physical/cognitive development. The rooms are comfortable and lively, full of books, toys, different activity zones, but with special lights and music for nap time. He has a lot of autonomy in deciding how he plays. They take them outside a lot, and the baby garden and patio areas are excellent (the garden for bigger kids is truly impressive). Food is cooked on site with care given to quality, balance, and enjoyment of meals. When he’s been ill or had a little accident, the team are fantastic with attentive for him and contacting us immediately. He loves going in the morning and is cheerful, well fed, and well rested at the end of the day. The updates provided are consistently truly informative. We are so cheerful with this childcare centre, we suggest them highly. Our son (22 months) has been going here since he was 12 months and we’ve been massively impressed over the last ten months.

    My daughter has attended two other nurseries previously and I have never seen her happier in a childcare centre setting and her development has come on leaps and bounds since attending Kids 1st. All the team are incredible, highly expert and approachable. Their updates with parents is consistently outstanding.
    It’s lovely to see the bonds my daughter has made with all the team in the early years room, especially one member of team who she talks about every day! My daughter is consistently asking when she is next at childcare centre because the childcare centre team and kids have become her second family and they make sure each day is enjoyable and full of discovering. I honestly can’t thank them enough for the time, care and adore they put into every single kid in their care! I am so cheerful and impressed with Kids 1st Day Childcare centre and the standard of care they give to my daughter and every other kid that attends their setting.

    She gets excited when I tell her she’s going that day. I adore it when I collect her and watch her playing, unaware that I’m there. As she is consistently having so much enjoyable and doesn’t stop telling me about her day on the way home. I also adore how this childcare centre feels like a family, and no matter who your kid’s key worker is, you get feedback and comments from a variety of team members about little things, which goes a long way with me. I consistently sense highly included in all goings on, and we only attend twice a week. I highly suggest this childcare centre. My daughter absolutely loves her two days at childcare centre!

    They have truly strived to help our little boy to sense at home and settled since he began in January. It’s never easy leaving your little one with others but all of the team have put us at ease and communicated brilliantly throughout. We have been truly delighted with the care from all the team at Kids 1st @ Newark.

    My son has recently started in the baby room and the transition into a regular pattern was super flexible and supported by the team. Baby room team are welcoming, confident and brilliantly attentive towards all the babes. I consistently knew my son would be left in capable hands but it’s been a truly incredible process and drop offs are truly smooth. Books are still used in Baby room which I like to be kept up with what the baby has been up to. 10/10 from this family. Keep up the great work! My Daughter has attended the childcare centre since January 2021 and has adored attending childcare centre through her time there (asks to go on days off).

    They also have a fabulous outdoor area for the kids to delight in! My daughter absolutely loves coming to this childcare centre.
    All the team are compassionate and attentive, this makes such a difference in the whole journey.

    They come home spotless, dry, well fed and, most importantly cheerful. We adore reading the daily diaries to see what they have been up to – both in terms of discovering and in terms of their care during the day (meals/sleeps/changes)! The team are lovely and welcoming and obviously care deeply about the kids that they look after. The childcare centre itself is set in remarkable grounds with lots of space and provision outdoors for discovering and exploration, as well as lovely, newly-refurbished rooms indoors with lots of lovely equipment for the kids to use in their playtime. We have recently moved our baby and toddler here and are highly cheerful with the care that they are given whilst at childcare centre.

    The setting is absolutely incredible both inside and out with huge amounts of space that has been thoughtfully divided into different activity zones. Honestly a little bit jealous that he gets to playtime there all day!
    The team are welcoming, well‑informed and attentive. We get excellent updates from both the childcare centre regarding upcoming events/activities/weekly themes and from his key worker with individual updates regarding his development and discovering outcomes.
    Overall, an outstanding childcare centre and we are highly grateful that our son is so cheerful here. Our son absolutely loves going to childcare centre here and the development he has made amazes us on a weekly basis.

    The team at this childcare centre are incredible. We tried some sessions with her earlier than 7 months but she wasn’t ready. The childcare centre manager was incredibly accommodating and understanding as we went through the process. Since she joined she has been looked after like she is in a home from home. I sense 100% confident that she is secure, exceptionally well fed and well cared for, the team are so attentive with the kids and truly help them with their development milestones at the right pace. The systems the childcare centre use are also fabulous, I can check in and see what she has eaten, how much and when she has been to sleep. If there are any concerns or if they need anything. It truly is the best childcare centre and I can’t imagine her developing as well as she has or being cared for like she is here anywhere else! The facilities are well maintained and well equipped, it is inviting, enjoyable and inviting. Our daughter has attended Kids 1st @ Newark Day Childcare centre since she was 7 months old.

    My kid comes home cheerful every day, lots of self-development, discovering basic, great habits, physical development and looks forward to going to childcare centre.
    Highly suggest to all parents looking for a great childcare centre! Highly great, hygienic and kid-welcoming childcare centre.

    If you are looking for a childcare centre in Newark that has excellent facilities, expert processes and remarkable outdoor space but that still manages to maintain a close-knit, family sense for the kids then this is your childcare centre. The baby room is exceptional with the recent refurbishment and the team are so attentive, they’ve helped guide my youngest through major milestones and he’s so obviously cheerful there. In the early years, my son plays outside, climbing, digging, and being super imaginative and somehow they manage to fit discovering in too. His school have commented on his educational level already and so much of that is down to this setting. Also, allergy parents- please accept my recommendation. My youngest, in particular, started with a complex and long list of allergies, we’ve had no slip-ups and they’ve bent over backwards to work with us to ensure they’re secure and fed well. Both my sons currently attend Kids 1st Newark and I often refer to the childcare centre as our extended family.

    We have been well supported and all team have been inviting and welcoming and my mind is totally at ease. It’s taken so long to find our perfect fit. Highly recommended. We have only been using Kids 1st @ Newark Day Childcare centre for the last couple of months, we have moved from another local childcare centre that we had multiple issues with.

    Consistently sense confident leaving my daughter here and she is cheerful to stay. She gets fantastic home cooked meals that have encouraged her to try more foods at home too! The early years room is simply incredible with the best facilities! A lovely childcare centre with the best team.
