Here’s what our parents say

"My son absolutely loves YKN and has made so many friends. His personality and confidence has grown in YKN and he's become a well-rounded little boy with a curiosity to match. They make sure to include many activities so the children can learn different skills. I'd highly recommend YKN to all parents."

Fatima Alsayegh

"My 2-year-old son has attended YKN for the past year. We have nothing but good things to say about it from start to finish. Wonderful facilities, caring, lovely & friendly staff. My son will go to pre-school in September but we will really miss YKN. We were considering a number of nurseries but are so glad we chose this one. Thank you so much to Ms Jade & everyone else at YKN - it's a special place!"

Oliver Stevens

"Mila is now in FS1 & joined YKN when she was 1.7 years. I can confidently say that the best years were spent at nursery. The teachers are very professional, warm & caring. Mila was able to make huge progress throughout her stay at nursery. She is very lucky to have her first schooling experience at a warm & vibrant nursery."

Ghina Saab

"Absolutely love YKN! After taking tours of multiple nurseries, we chose KKN due to the open spaces, interactive classrooms, & warm & caring teachers. My son goes to the nursery for the full day & his learning curve has been steep over the last year. Thank you YKN!"

Shilpa Agrawal Walia

"YKN was the right choice for our daughter after experiencing other nurseries. It's a happy environment with amazing outdoor facilities. Everyone is welcoming & approachable. She settled in quickly from day one & is always excited to go to nursery in the morning. I truly appreciate the teachers & assistants for their extra care & attention to her."

MJ Arellano

"Our princess joined YKN last September & throughout the year she showed very good progress & development in social, communication, & motor skills. We love the way they are planning the weeks & sticking to a theme to let the children learn about a lot of fields. All of the staff are very warm & caring. Thank you for everything!"

Anas ElArabi

"As for our youngest who joined beginning 2023, the nursery has been a wonderful space for both social and emotional growth. The staff is incredibly attentive, offering a mix of structured activities and free play that has helped him develop his communication skills and make lasting friendships. We’ve also seen a noticeable improvement in his confidence and independence since joining."

Wissam Hussein

"From our very first tour we knew we’d found somewhere special and different in Yellow Kite Nursery….unlike other nurseries we saw which felt a bit businessy, the team really took the time to get to know our family and listen to our needs. The teachers are so experienced in everything child development related, from coffee mornings with expert speakers to chats at pick up time I feel really supported as a parent."

Lynsey

"We always hear the term “home away from home” this is literally what Yellow Kite nursery is (previously named kangaroo kids). What makes it very special are the heart warming teachers, management and all the staff who are all very highly qualified and well trained to deal with the children and to foster the Montessori approach in this beautiful massive garden which makes every child happy."

Ibtissam C

"YKN is not just a nursery, it’s an extension of our family. Moving to a new country can be daunting, especially when you don’t have the network of an extended family, so finding a nursery like this with exceptional management and staff was a blessing. My daughter finishes this year and she’s blossomed in the time she’s been there, she’s been treated like a daughter by everyone from the security guards, the teachers, helpers and the nurse."
