Working for KiddyKare is great! I love how it is flexible with the hours and days. I like how well the communication is, and if I have a problem or don’t understand anything it gets sorted out really quickly.

Aaliya

An enjoyable experience

I have been temping for about a year and a half with Kiddykare and for all that time it has been a very positive experience. There has never been a time when I have not had a shift if I have wanted one and the staff have always been friendly and helpful. Kiddykare are very good at communicating and keeping their staff informed about any changes that might have occurred and I find the whole process of being a temp with them very enjoyable.

Caroline

Fantastic support

KiddyKare have been fantastic from the start. I had the pleasure of being contacted by Erin who was very warm, bubbly and supportive. Erin remained with me from my telephone screening to my interview and once successful Erin even checked in with me on my first week. I can’t thank her enough for finding me my new position in a wonderful setting. I don’t believe there is anything more they could of done to support me more and I recommend anyone to use KiddyKare moving forward.

The advantages of flexible working

I’ve been a temporary employee at Kiddykare for over a year. When I’ve had an emergency or been sick, Kiddykare has been really understanding. I appreciate the flexibility of working as a temporary nursery nurse since it allows me to get experience with different nurseries while still spending time with the children. It’s also wonderful when you get the chance to go back to a nursery I have enjoyed working at.

As a company we have been working with KiddyKare Agency for over 3 years now. They have supported us with both permanent and temporary staff.

All the staff that come to us have been fully checked by the staff team at KiddyKare. All staff that turn up to the settings are very professional and work well with other members of the team.

If we have any concerns we can contact the staff at KiddyKare and they act quickly and professional to help clear up any situations .

It is as great partnership that we have with KiddyKare ,and I am sure it will grow stronger as time goes on.

Very Efficient

I first heard of KiddyKare through a local newspaper advert and after a few e-mails, I went down to their office for an interview. I had no previous experience working with children of this age, but despite this, they were keen to find work for me. They were very efficient getting my CRB check through. It was less than 2 weeks after registration that I was on the way to my first nursery.

Alan Macnair

Professionalism is second to none

I feel the service that has been provided to me was excellent. I joined KiddyKare on 30th July and by Friday 1st of August I had 3 interviews lined up. Subsequently I have accepted a job offer and I start at the end of September. Communication from Jen was excellent and made me feel at ease. Her professionalism is second to none and I would fully recommend KiddyKare to anyone wishing to seek employment in childcare.

M Fish

I could not be more satisfied

Regarding the service provided by KiddyKare, I could not be more satisfied. The service has been excellent from the start. I have been offered work regularly and at times convenient to me. I am always able to get hold of Jen or another member of staff via e-mail or telephone at all times, and if I leave a message KiddyKare come back to me promptly.

All of my documentation needed to commence work with KiddyKare was compiled quickly and easily by KiddyKare, as was my CRB check. Additionally, the weekly pay slips are on time and easy to understand. Jen and the KiddyKare staff are extremely friendly and cannot do enough for me. They are approachable and hard working.

N Tizzard

Highly recommended

KiddyKare have shown great professionalism and efficiency since I joined in March this year. After registering, I was placed in a nursery within days and continued to be placed in many other nurseries soon after. Staff have done their utmost to make sure I’m placed promptly and appropriately and they have been consistently professional and personable towards me at all times. Kiddykare provide an overall excellent service and are highly recommended to anyone seeking temporary employment.

I feel that KiddyKare are very supportive and able to accommodate the majority of the needs within the nursery, even emergency cover. The ladies are very approachable who I come into contact with whether it be by email or telephone.
