Testimonials

Quotes from recent past parents

"Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such good care of A this past year.  You have nurtured him into an inquisitive, kind and social little boy.  We feel very grateful for all your love, care and hard work.  Sending A to Kia Mena was the best choice we could ever make for him"

AS July 2024

 "Thank you for taking such good care of M.  We really couldn't ask for a better pre-school - you've all made M's time with you phenomenal!  M has made so many happy memories at Kia Mena and will miss you all so much:

ML 2024

"Since the first day that G went to visit and meeting the teachers she has never looked back.  She loved going to school every day.  You are all awesome and she will never forget you"

ND 2024

"We are so incredibly grateful to you all for taking care of R during his time at pre-school and helping him blossom.  We still can't believe his transformation from such a shy little boy into the chatty, loud 4 year old we see today!"

HB 2024

 "Thank you so much for looking after G over the last few years.  She has loved every single day at Kia Mena and will really miss you all.   Thank you for teaching her so many amazing and interesting topics.  G is really prepared for school thanks to all your hard work.  You are all so special to her, thank you for your love and support"

HM 2023

 "Thank you for all that you have done this year with L.  She has absolutely loved her time with you all and has totally thrived.  We couldn't have wished for a better pre-school for her!  We know she's going to miss you all a lot but hope you have a wonderful summer and all the best for the future."

A few anonymous reviews from recent parent surveys  

"I am so happy that we moved our son to Kia Mena. He will remember his time there fondly. It’s a very nurturing setting and I leave him there on a morning knowing he’s going to have a fun learning and playing with his friends."

"It's a safe happy place for my child to play and learn, where I know the staff will look after my son the way I would look after him. I get the feeling that the staff really do love each of the children genuinely and its so nice to see the children being appreciated this way."

"Kia Mena has done so much for our son, and we are blown away by the progress you have helped him make since joining. We only wish he could have been with you from younger. We will be recommending you to anyone we can in the future."

"Flexibility across everything. It feels like Kia Mena is making things work for YOU rather than you needing to make things work for the preschool. And while I know it's a business it doesn't feel like one compared to other preschools. You feel that everyone truly loves being there."

"I think the teaching elements have been great. My child has done very well with numbers and sounds, as well as learning other things which I am forever grateful for."

"We chose Kia Mena because of the open and airy space that felt like a place a child could thrive. We have not been disappointed. The staff are very stable and our son has had the same contact points all year which has been so helpful for him feeling secure and building lovely relationships. The team are unfazed by all things and are kind and patient with an eye for the individual things that make children special and families content. Topics are always well thought out and some of the activities are things that I would never have imagined doing with a pre-school child. Our Fridge door will never be the same!"

"Kia Mena is a lovely preschool. The staff are warm, kind and attentive, and thoroughly engaged with the children. Jane is a fantastic manager and always has time to talk to parents about any concerns. The children do a wide range of enjoyable activities and are encouraged to follow their own interests. There is a general culture of respect and consideration, which means that the standard of behaviour is very good. My daughter has been very happy there for two years; she has made wonderful friends and we will miss everyone very much." 

"What shines through each day that our daughter goes to Kia Mena is her smile; wider than Tower Bridge and lit up brighter than the London Eye. Well done!"

"I’ve had both my sons at Kia Mena, the staff are really lovely. They are attentive to the children’s needs and by the time my eldest son went to reception he was well equipped and had a good understanding of numbers, sounds and letters. I would highly recommend Kia Mena." 

"Best preschool in the area. My 2 children have been really happy there. They learnt and made lots of friends there. The staff are always very happy and welcoming. I love seeing my son enjoying his day and telling me all the activities he has being doing."

"My daughter has been attending Kia Mena since she was 2 until leaving for school. She had learnt to read, write and do basic addition. She is happy and enjoys her days there. The staff are confident, friendly, caring and keep you well informed of your child's progress and of any information regarding the pre-school. My younger daughter will be attending when she is old enough as I truly find this preschool outstanding." 

"Such a fantastic place for children to enjoy, develop and grow. Cannot fault the care and attention given to my twin boys. The team are fantastic and provide great communication and support for parents."
