    My son attended Safari from six months until three years old, when he left to attend the childcare centre at the school I work at. Only for pure convenience; otherwise, he would’ve been there until school age. The team at Safari truly go above and beyond to meet the needs of the kids in their care. As it’s a small childcare centre, they really get to know each individual kid and work exceptionally hard to meet their needs. They are well-resourced and ensure that all kids’s interests are met with whatever they bring in. Great, home-cooked nutritious food is made every day. A stand-out point for me is that they are never complacent. The team constantly think of new ways to engage the kids and frequently celebrate a diverse range of celebratory days. They really were a home-from-home for my son, and we cannot thank them enough for everything they did for him. An absolute hidden gem!

    The team are the most incredible people that make my kids sense welcomed and loved. Five stars are not enough.
    As a childcare centre, on the whole, Safari Kindergarten is very supportive towards kids and families. I have had three of my boys at this remarkable childcare centre, with two of them still there.

    I was so sad for her to leave, as it’s by far the best childcare centre I have come across!
    The team are all so lovely and attentive. My daughter had a excellent bond with all of them. They have lots of activities to keep them busy and discovering lots, including people coming in to teach dance and Spanish! Lots of trips out and outdoor playtime.
    The care, attention and discovering she receives are second to none. I can’t thank them enough for all they did for my daughter. They helped turn her into a confident little girl with lots of friends. My kid attended Safari Kindergarten for just over two years before it was time for her to leave for reception.

    The team are also very well‑informed about how early years kids learn and have a variety of resources and activities every day. I can’t thank the team enough for making my daughter sense cheerful when I’m at work. The team here have really tried to help my daughter to settle into the childcare centre; they are so inviting and compassionate to her.

    All the team at Safari are welcoming and supportive and are committed to enabling kids to reach their goals. My kid loves it at Safari and has built lovely relationships with team and other kids. I’m so pleased with the development he has made so far, and I know that all he has learned will really help him when transitioning to school. We are so cheerful we chose Safari for our kid, he is so well looked after, and we sense secure knowing that he is in a loving and nurturing setting.

    The care the team provide is exceptional.
    The team are consistently welcoming and approachable, and my kid leaves me now with ease.
    The discovering and developmental opportunities provided are absolutely phenomenal, and I cannot thank the childcare centre enough for the service in which they provide. Outstanding.
    Words cannot describe how much my now 2-year-old has grown and developed in less than 12 months of being at this childcare centre.

    All the team were remarkable with my twins. They came such a long way during the 2.5 years they spent here. The team treated my daughters like their own – couldn’t ask for more from them. I’ll consistently suggest this childcare centre to anyone. Such a fantastic childcare centre.

    The team are all very expert but also have the most attentive nature. They consistently provide outstanding provisions to engage the kids and develop their discovering. I have sent all three of my kids over the past four years and have loved their journeys. This childcare centre is incredible.

    The team are compassionate and attentive and will go out of their way to assistance the needs of every kid, while still being expert and following operating procedures and developmental goal plans. The management is flexible, and I’m able to arrange extra hours as and when I need them. Through the app, I have so many pictures of what my son gets up to a childcare centre, and I can see the vast range of activities that he does and how cheerful and engaged he is. He loves the home-cooked meals – Safari has been exceptional at catering for his dietary needs. It’s so reassuring to know that while I’m working, he is receiving so much adore and attention and access to new experiences and that he’s cheerful. If my son were to write this review, he would tell you that listening to the speaker while playing outside and the dancing lady that comes once a week are his favourite things. I highly suggest Safari Kindergarten.

    Very spotless! Great fresh food! My kid is very cheerful, and we can see lots of development in our kid’s development. Lots of activities, trips and competitions. Very great updates emails, telephone, face-to-face and Childcare centre website. Many thanks! Very expert and welcoming team.

    The team clearly adore their jobs and look after the kids with excellent care.
    Very approachable management.
    Excellent childcare centre – glad we picked them for our boys who have extra needs. Exceptional childcare centre, really supportive and welcoming.

    My grandson has a food allergy and hypermobility and was a late walker, all of which the childcare centre team took in their stride. Even allowing an outside scuttle bug into the childcare centre room when he was still not self-mobile. On leaving and collecting the kid, the team consistently have time to listen to your concerns and adapt the day to suit the kid. Every day he is discovering, developing skills and socialising with his peers and adults in a sharing discovering setting. Safari Kindergarten provides home-from-home care with team who are attentive and in tune with their little childcare centre kids on every level.

    Spotless and secure setting all the time, but especially through Covid, as they stayed open and supported not only the kids but their families too. Would highly suggest this childcare centre to everyone I know. Amazingly, welcoming team who consistently have the kids’s best interests at the heart of everything they do.

    All the team are welcoming and consistently more than cheerful to help in any way they can. Very great prompt updates, whether through phone calls, in person or email.
    I have two kids who attend here, and they are so cheerful and content in their setting and with all the team. They adhere to every kid’s individual needs, and do their very best to be informative and supportive through an app that allows updates between caregiver and parent. Consistently striving to do their best in any way they can. Lovely childcare centre. Safari Kindergarten has been exceptional.

    All of them have loved their time there. The team are welcoming and outstanding with the kids. I would highly suggest this childcare centre to anyone! My son went to Safari Kindergarten a couple of years ago, and now my twins go.

    We adore how much care and effort has been made by all the
    team and management team to make every day a great day for kids. We have recommended Safari to many parents and will continue to do so. My toddler has been with Safari for more than two years, and she has loved and developed so much!

    All the team are very dedicated, attentive and loving towards the kids. The programme they offer is perfect, from stretch and grow – discovering about healthy bodies to talking about emotions. They keep the parents updated about their kid’s development daily and consistently try and tailor activities to what the kid likes and enjoys. They have been incredible with my daughter with her food allergies, and they have fully embraced it, and this means my daughter doesn’t miss out or sense different from the other kids. We will be forever grateful for that assistance and for everything they help us with. Safari is a remarkable childcare centre.

    My son has attended since he was a year old, and has been and still is thriving. All team are lovely, attentive and attentive to health and/or dietary needs. They use an app which informs me of daily foods and photos of what he has been doing and how the activities reach his developmental goals. Team and parents can also communicate via the app, which is very useful. The nursey is flexible, which is one of the first things that attracted me to them. I sense content and at ease that my son is secure, loved, cheerful, discovering, experiencing and thriving whilst I am at work. The only slight downfall for me is the food. Most are homemade, which is excellent, but there could be a little more variety and greater nutritional value in the meals. A fantastic childcare centre.

    I know of many nurseries that charge more than Safari Kindergarten, and they are no way up to the standards of these guys. I know if my kid is upset, the team here make it all better with a hug or two, and that’s what matters to me. They have helped my kid in so many ways, from her eating to her talking, and I can not thank them enough for everything they do. I wish she could stay forever. The best childcare centre I have ever come across, from the team to the adore they show the kids is impeccable.

    Consistently so accommodating. I would consistently suggest it to family and friends, and my kid and older kid have loved coming to you. The care you provide to them is second to none, and I know how much you genuinely care for my kid and the discovering and effort you put in. Thank you so much. Best childcare centre around.
