September 5, 2024 at 5:42 pmThey go above and beyond to make your kid’s time there the most enjoyable ever! My daughter absolutely loved her time here being excited every day knowing when she was going back, which is all you want to hear that they delight in going, having enjoyable but discovering at the same time.
Every single week I was sent different pictures of what they had been up to and never was it ever the same. The kids get lots of outdoor time exploring new things as well.
The team are incredible consistently welcoming, consistently cheerful, attentive and very creative with all the fantastic things they do plus nothing is ever too much trouble – it’s endless.
Rafles setting is so calming with lots of space in each room plus lots of outdoor space too.
My daughter will truly miss her time at Rafles but has accomplished many milestones and created fantastic memories she can have forever. Thank you all at Rafles Childcare centre. Rafles childcare centre is absolutely incredible!

September 10, 2024 at 7:36 pmThe childcare centre Room made the transition going back to work so much easier than I could have ever imagined. Every member of team shows genuine interest and care not only in our little boy but also our whole family life too.
Rafles have the perfect balance between getting the kids to engage in activities and allowing them time to relax like they would do if they were at home. My kid has progressed socially in the most incredible way since starting. I drop off and pick up a smiley boy who cannot wait to get out of the car each morning and see his extended family.
All team are approachable, welcoming and down to earth. Although there is a key worker system, I sense cheerful to speak with any member of team and know they all have an understanding of my kid’s needs equally well.
I will be forever grateful for the care they have shown both my son and myself, at such an important stage in both our lives. My son started Rafles at 10 months old.

September 24, 2024 at 11:10 pmI have 2 kids attending Rafles and they are both very cheerful. The team had made the transition period very easy and positive for both me and my kids.
My kids go into childcare centre very cheerful and it’s excellent to see what they are up to and what they eat via the Famly app.
Rafles do so many activities with the kids and celebrate a variety of festivals and charity days and it’s excellent to see all the team participate.
All the team are expert, welcoming, approachable and incredible at their work.
My kids are very cheerful there and come out of childcare centre full of smiles. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre to anyone who is looking for a expert, welcoming placement for their kids. Rafles is a remarkable childcare centre set in lovely surroundings.

September 26, 2024 at 10:25 amLoved all team in every room, and the time was consistently nicely organised, with loads of special events. He is a picky eater and so had to bring his own lunches, but he is consistently encouraged to try childcare centre lunches and sometimes successfully he discovers new flavours. The menu is provided in advance so we can plan accordingly. The outside space is incredible and loads of it, which helps since we don’t have a garden. You can pick from different start/finish hours to make it work for you, team and management are flexible and attentive. I couldn’t suggest Rafles enough, simply an incredible place! My little one attended from 1 year old starting from the childcare centre room, via Lower preschool and Upper preschool.

October 7, 2024 at 1:08 pmThe facilities are very great. The food is freshly cooked on-site every day. The team are absolutely incredible and adore what they are doing. My son loves going there every day and he has learnt so much! I cannot suggest highly enough. I have had 2 kids attend the childcare centre and would not go to another childcare centre. The childcare centre and the team are outstanding.

October 18, 2024 at 4:27 pmThe team are so incredible and I felt so comfortable leaving my kids here whilst I went to work.
I am very sad to say goodbye now my last kid leaves this incredible childcare centre to start school.
Rafles is the best childcare centre around. Both my kids have attended Rafles and both loved it.
Spencer Quincy
October 22, 2024 at 8:28 pmI have had nothing but a positive journey and would highly suggest. Both of my kids have come on leaps and bounds since their start at Raffles. Both of my kids have attended this childcare centre from 15 months to school age.

November 1, 2024 at 7:46 pmRafles is a exceptional childcare centre! The team are incredibly attentive and nurturing and my son absolutely loves going there! He has built strong bonds with the team and kids there and he has really thrived, becoming confident and independent through Rafles guidance.
It’s the best childcare centre in this area and the outside space it affords is miles better than any other childcare centre I’m aware of in the area.
Don’t hesitate in placing your kid at Rafles!
We will miss Rafles once my son leaves and I’d suggest it to all parents in the area. My son has been at Rafles since he was 10 months old and he will leave at the end of August before starting primary school.

November 1, 2024 at 8:23 pmThe boys adore it there! I would definitely suggest this childcare centre. All the key workers are excellent with the kids, the management and office team are consistently very accommodating and very easily contactable. All the team are very welcoming and know the kids’s needs. My boys have learned so much since being there, their self‑assurance and their discovering skills have grown greatly. Outstanding childcare centre with a excellent atmosphere and excellent team. Outstanding facilities and outstanding level of care. My eldest son has been attending Rafles since October 2017 and my youngest son since October 2018.

November 6, 2024 at 8:02 amThe incredible ladies from the baby room right through to preschool and including the office team have been nothing but supportive, attentive and genuinely interested in my kids’s growth and development.
The thought and care that goes into the development of each kid, for me, is second to none. They take a holistic approach to a kid’s development and consistently provide different, interesting and enjoyable discovering activities every day, as well as lots of free playtime both inside and in their remarkable outside playtime area.
Rafles have helped me as a parent promote confident and cheerful kids that are more than ready to sense secure and confident in the next stage of their discovering journeys in a school setting.
My son leaves for school this month and I can’t help but sense sad that he will no longer be attending Rafles where he made excellent friends and had so much enjoyable but I’m so grateful that he spent his early years here. Both of my kids attended Rafles from 9 months old.
Robin Sawyer
November 12, 2024 at 6:36 amThe team were very welcoming and I was kept informed at all times about my him. This made me sense very comfortable about leaving him and my son was consistently cheerful which reassured me.
He would be so excited about going to childcare centre, that he would even ask about whether he was going when it was the weekend. I felt that my son was leaving home and going to another home. The team are tremendous, attentive and consistently has the kid’s best interest at heart. I highly suggest Rafles childcare centre to family and friends. My son had attended Rafles childcare centre for 3 years.

November 18, 2024 at 4:04 pmThey are so compassionate, attentive, cheerful and one thing that’s exceptional is the food is made fresh from scratch My daughter has been going to Rafles Childcare centre since Feb 2017
She absolutely loves it and I’m so cheerful with all the team.

December 26, 2024 at 6:12 pmMy son started when he was six months and is now one years old. In that time he has really thrived. The childcare centre room team are outstanding, they keep you well informed via the app and send you updates and photos which is compassionate and reassuring.His key worker is exceptional and provides updates on new skills and how he is developing. They will also do their best to work around your routine in terms of sleep and feeding. They also do a variety of activities with the kids from painting to outdoor based things. When I pick up my son he is cheerful and has clearly been well looked after, I can’t praise them highly enough. Overall, I have been delighted with Rafles Childcare centre & Preschool – Cheshunt.

January 18, 2025 at 9:38 amOur journey has been a very positive one. We would definitely and have recommended to others. Both our daughters have enjoyed their time here. We have never had an issue or problems. The ladies throughout the childcare centre are very approachable, attentive, expert and whom the kids respond well to. The facilities and outside spaces are also very great. When we were looking for a childcare centre we were looking for a home from home setting and this is exactly what you get from the team at Rafles. Rafles Childcare centre & Preschool do and have done a fabulous job in helping us bring up and teach our girls. We have been using Rafles Childcare centre and Preschool since 2015.

February 4, 2025 at 11:37 amI would definitely suggest Rafles. Rafles was remarkable for my kid in every way which has given them a excellent start in reception.
Milan Walker
February 24, 2025 at 12:01 pmI viewed 6 full-time nurseries across the area of Cheshunt. Upon walking into Rafles childcare centre, I knew this would be where I wanted my daughter to attend. The layout of the childcare centre being open, bright and well organised.
The childcare centre team and especially my daughter’s key carer went above and beyond to ensure my daughter settled as quickly as possible. I and other family members saw a substantial improvement in my daughter’s use of numbers, colours and the grammar.
Being a full time working mum and my daughter being my only kid, you can imagine she is my world and I don’t often leave her anywhere without feeling guilty of missing the day to day things. That’s why I absolutely champion the App. The team are so great at posting updates and observations of my kid that I sense I’m witnessing live in-the-moment and I also reap the benefit of being able to discuss with my daughter activities she’s taken part in during the day.
Highly Suggest!! My daughter joined in July 2018.
Billie Quinn
March 23, 2025 at 4:26 amWe had the best journey with Rafles, the team and management team are remarkable and my son looked forward to going there every day of the last 2 years. They provided him with an incredible and cheerful setting where he could learn and have enjoyable. Rafles really helped him shape his young character. We highly suggest Rafles and we were sad that our son now has to move on to primary school and he made us promise him to take him back to visit them often.
Thank you so much again to the Rafles team. My son has been going to Rafles for the last two years and he had his last day on Friday 27th August 2021.

May 6, 2025 at 8:20 amConsistently very accommodating and excellent value for money. The App is also very useful and we consistently sense updated. Highly suggest Really inviting and attentive Key Workers, excellent facilities and activities for the kids.

May 22, 2025 at 8:39 pmThe baby room is outstanding at settling the little ones in with an outstanding programme of visit sessions prior to starting and are so attentive to the development and needs of the babies. The room is spotless, modern and well equipped. They do an outstanding range of activities.
The preschool room again is outstanding and they are fully involved in supporting and developing the kids. They again have a large, light and well-equipped room and a lovely garden for the kids to use. They focus well on the needs of individual kids.
The app is an outstanding tool used by the childcare centre for giving information about the kids’s day to parents and is updated during each day.
All team at the childcare centre are outstanding. They are attentive and attentive to the kids’s needs and very expert.
I would wholeheartedly suggest this childcare centre unreservedly. Well done Rafles! Both my 3-year-old son and 1-year-old daughter attend Rafles childcare centre.

June 9, 2025 at 9:05 pmAnd to leave them when they are so young is one of the hardest things you will have to do, but leaving my kid at Rafles was made easy by the adore and care that all the team showed him.
They have been an integral part of him growing into the little person he is today.
I would say to anybody considering a place here for their kid/baby, as a mother I would suggest Rafles in a heartbeat. A parent’s adore for a kid is unconditional and they are the most precious things in the world to you.
