Kenwood Day Nursery Stretford

We have been using Kenwood Day Nursery for 7 years and found the care and staff absolutely brilliant. It really is a second family to our little ones. Thank you for being brilliant guys, we really appreciate it.

My little one loves Kenwood. She started going when she was 1 and settled in really well. The nursery takes less kids than a lot of the other nurseries nearby which is a really good thing for us. Everyone knows her and she reacts really well to all the staff. They do lots of activities for the kids and keep us up to date with what they’re doing with daily forms and photos.

Our daughter spent 3 years here very happily. She was very shy but the friendly ‘ home from home’ environment allowed her to settle in quickly. The staff were caring and professional and I never had any worries about leaving her there. Would highly recommend.

My two daughters attended Kenwood Day Nursery from just 1 until nearly 4 when they went to a school. They have fond memories and formed strong bonds with the staff and still talk about them. The girls were well cared for, had fun and had lots of outside play which was my main concern but now having two in the school system Kenwood also sets the children up well for school. My daughters are doing extremely well in attention, learning, imagination, numeracy and reading and writing. Also, I found toilet training quite stress free but again this was largely due to the nursery staff! It’s a small nursery so has a nice ‘homely’ feel. There is minimal staff turnover (odd changes mostly for maternity covers). Also, the staff arrange a special leavers day out for children which was probably the girls first independent adventure and they both sleep with their leavers photo with their nursery friends by their bed!

Kenwood is a fantastic nursery. The staff are so warm and caring. It’s small enough that all the staff know your child well, not just their keyworker. My son was very happy during his time there. He was not a great sleeper and they got him napping in no time. They also do a great range of activities, with lots of messy/wet play. The outside space is a really good all-weather area which means they really do go outside every day. I would happily recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic staff, lovely small nursery so little ones feel like it’s a home from home experience. Both of my boys have loved it here. They’ve got brilliant facilities and put an amazing amount of effort into offering a wide variety of activities and experiences for your little ones. All with a focus on the early year’s development in preparation for school, but with an emphasis on play.
Highly recommend this nursery!

It is a lovely, friendly, family feel nursery. My son attended when he was little, and my daughter is there now. The owner still plays an active role in the nursery and is often there, the manager is extremely efficient and really knows her stuff when it comes to child development. In fact all the staff there are lovely and seem to have been there a long time – one member of staff, in particular, seems to have a real bond with my daughter and still pops in to see her now she’s in the ‘big room’. It’s such a small nursery so you feel like they really know your child, and have a genuine affection for them. My son still loves going in and saying hello when we pick up his sister. The food is home cooked and nutritious and my kids loved/love it. They also do nice things like hatch out eggs (ducklings this year), caterpillars, frogs etc and go on trips to the local park. I feel really lucky that both my kids have had a chance to go there.

My child attended Kenwood 4 days a week for 4 years and I couldn’t recommend the nursery enough.
It’s small and family-run so you get an intimate feel because of this – with only about 30 children there. There are dedicated baby, toddler and preschool rooms, which are really well equipped. You get updates on your child’s progress via an online app, so you can see pictures of activities they do in the day, which I loved.
The staff are amazing, really well trained and qualified and my child adored her key workers and they adored her. There’s a really low staff turn over – only a couple moved during our time with Kenwood, so you know them and they all know your child.
The outdoor space is smaller than other larger nurseries, but it’s more than enough for the small number of children at Kenwood.
The home-cooked food and snacks are nutritious and varied every day, which is great.
Overall our experience of Kenwood was extremely positive and my child loved going there.

Our little boy had a fantastic experience at Kenwood. We can’t thank the manager, staff member and all the amazing team members there enough for being so warm, welcoming, caring and friendly – both to our toddler and us as anxious parents! He looked forward to going in there every day and we had peace of mind leaving him, knowing he’d be so well looked after. The atmosphere was one of fun and laughter and there was always great communication about what he’d got up to and how he was progressing. Thank you so much.

I can’t recommend Kenwood Day Nursery highly enough. Both of my sons went there over the last 5 years. It’s a small nursery so all the staff and children know each other and build lovely relationships. The children, despite being split into their age ranges, also know each other. They have recently undertaken a cellar conversion to almost double the space in the nursery and have created a lovely new activity room. They also spend as much time as possible outside in the garden and take the children out on walks to nearby Longford Park or further afield when they can which both my boys found really exciting. The staff are so caring and dedicated – we can’t thank them enough for looking after our boys over the last 5 years
