Child development centres in Welling

“Our son has been at Kateys for 9 months now and we couldn't be happier. The staff are so welcoming and loving towards the children. The range of activities, play and learning they do is outstanding. Each day useful feedback is given and periodically more thorough feedback in the form of a learning journal and parents evenings. I'm always astonished by the range and depth of topics covered. The setting is excellent too with lots of outdoor space and nearby points of interest. Highly recommend.”

“Great place to bring your little ones for activities and health clinics. Friendly staff, varied schedule.”

“Great nursery. Facilitates are great, especially the big garden which has a climbing frame, fish pond, sandpit, guinea pigs. They even had incubated chicks earlier in the year. The staff are great and have been working there for years which is always a good sign. My daughter loves it.”

“Great staff, l remember when my baby got his BCG , it was a cold and rainy day but it ended up being a good day for my baby and l , the place was conducive for breastfeeding and relaxing and the staff were all so nice ,my baby was still a newborn and l was exhausted but that day my energy was boosted and made me more confident of going out and wanting to attend more class.”

“So you need to get your new born vaccinated? And you love somewhere within a 4 mile radius of tolworth? Then this is your centre. If you are driving there, please plan some additional time to find parking. Take your pram with you in case you have to walk a distance from where you parked to the centre. Situated right next to a school is this brilliant children's centre with absolutely amazing staff! We went in for a BCG and it was a breeze once we were inside. The staff was fantastic from welcoming and helping my pregnant wife with carrying the baby seat, guiding us to the waiting room, then the vaccination staff was intelligent and well informed on all things about the vaccine, explained all the potential side effects and how to care for the area that was vaccinated etc. all was done in less than 5 minutes. Wearing layers of baby clothes that are easy to remove and put back on would be ideal. I prefer the zip ones to the buttoned ones.”

“My daughter has been going to this nursery since we came out of the first lockdown and she absolutely loves it. We haven't had any negative experiences or reasons to complain. The first time we went to view the nursery, we were amazed at the space the children have to play and explore. The staff are always welcoming and ready to have a chat about your child's progress. A lot of times when my daughter comes back from nursery, she role plays her experience with her dolls and teddy bears like she is teaching them, that really helps me to see how she is developing. I am grateful for the teachers and the work they are doing. As a parent, I have the comfort in knowing that Ethelred Nursery is providing the best environment for my daughters growth right now.”

“Went here with my friend and children what a lovely place for children to be children free snacks and lots to do. Very friendly and helpful staff especially the reception team I had to write a review after reading lots of negatives ones I don't know why these are on there they are not seeing what I'm seeing good work John Smith keep it up...”

“My 3-year-old son attends this nursery, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! All the teaching assistants and support staff are amazing—kind, patient, and truly dedicated to the children’s well-being. The environment is warm and nurturing. He always looks forward to going to nursery, which speaks volumes about the care and effort the staff put in. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe and engaging place for their child’s early education!”

“This centre is old heritage building.”

“If you want your child nurtured, looked after, encouraged to grow and learn in a safe and secure environment, Kintore Way is all of this and much, much more. Having had 3 children attend, over a total period of 12 years, we could not be happier with the care they have all received alongside the invaluable support and advice that we as parents have received over the years from all of the staff, from nappy training to food fussiness, their advice is always well informed and offered both freely and kindly. In terms of continuity, we are amazed that many of the staff caring for our 2 year old daughter today, are the same staff who looked after our (almost) 13 year old son from the age of 7 months in the baby unit (now closed). This is a clear indication, in an industry renowned for a high turnover of staff, that this is good place to work, that staff enjoy caring for the children, take immense pride in the huge roles that they play in the children’s development and also that management understand the value of this team, that they support and encourage them. This comes across in the welcoming friendly atmosphere that is always present at Kintore Way. The facilities are secure, spotlessly clean and well maintained, the garden area is always used to its full potential, the children have a wide choice of activities to undertake both indoors and outdoors and are encouraged to do so. Any achievements , however big or small, are praised and always recognised. My daughter loves it as much today as her brothers did 13 years and 7 years ago, it’s part of our family story, even I attended nearly 4 decades ago! I could go on……. but in summary, if you are looking for an amazing nursery, with the most caring, loving, encouraging and professional staff, who take pride in their role nurturing and preparing your child for the next step of their journey into education, primary school, you’ve found it.”

“Having had one of my sons attend Park lane children centre I had no doubt to take my second child there, The Staff are very kind, caring & thoughtful, always greeting children with a smile on their faces. Facilities are clean and set up as a welcoming. They have a spacious outdoor play area where children happily roam at outdoor and Inside has plenty of space as well and is set up thoughtfully for different focus areas of play and learning, catering to the range of ages in nursery. The staff always around the children giving lots of positive attention. My eldest son left well prepared & confident for Reception; now it’s time for my little one, he loves it already..I highly recommend Park Lane Children Centre.”

“This centre was and continues to be fantastic support for our family. I was saddened to hear that the services were reduced to to cuts :( Staff are fantastic and v knowledgeable.”

“The staff were very good and friendly with my Godson when we went for appointment. They made us feel welcome and it was a very safe and pleasant environment filled with toys to keep them occupied while they carry out the assessments they need to do.”

“I took my 2y.o. grandson to The Willows drop-in playgroup yesterday afternoon- he loved it. I thought there was a good variety of play things - all with an educational value - and that phones are to be kept in your bag. Nice play-leaders too. Amazing that it's free”
