Grandir UK - Basingstoke

Josie Jean Bagnall-Cruz

Fantastic company to work for !!! I am part of the Grandflex team which is a new concept created by Grandir and it works fantastically especially around my family life. You’re able to work the hours that you can work you get to meet amazing people , You learn so much with the job role and you get great experience within the childcare sector.
Harriet at Grandir has gone above and beyond to support me in my role, she is always there to speak to if you have any questions or concerns about anything.
I thoroughly enjoy my job and it’s the first time I’ve ever enjoyed any job that I’ve ever had and I just wanna say a really big thank you to Grandir for giving me the opportunity 🙂

What a great company! I was looking for a job and applied via indeed. I was contacted by the lovely amazing Harriet! From the beginning till the end she's been with me and has been very responsive. I told her exactly what I wanted - from the hours to the pay! She put me forward for an interview and mentioned she had told the nursery what I'm looking for. To my shock (good shock! Haha!) the nursery manager and deputy were aware of exactly what I wanted and offered me a position of third in charge and a room leader! I couldn't believe it because I have been messed around with many agencies and they aren't honest and just put you through till you get to the place and the nurseries aren't aware of anything you wanted. Grandir isn't an agency you apply directly to them! Thank you Harriet ! Hope to meet in person too!

I've had an exceptional experience with Grandir UK. The team is professional, dedicated, and truly cares about the well-being and development of the children. From the engaging activities to the warm and nurturing environment, it's clear that the staff go above and beyond to provide top-quality care. Communication with parents is excellent, and they always keep us updated on our child's progress. I highly recommend Grandir UK to any parent looking for a trustworthy and enriching childcare provider.

Our (almost) 3 year old has been at a Grandir nursery for 2 years and has had the most wonderful time. The team in Wellingborough are outstanding, so caring, encouraging and switched on to each child's needs, likes and curiosities. Our little boys development has been nurtured at ever stage and at the same time he's had so much fun! Such a fantastic nursery.

Have sent both my daughters to Grandir Kiddi Caru Hanham Hall over the last 3.5 years and the younger has just graduated before starting school in Sept. Couldn't speak more highly of the nursery, the staff, the care the atmosphere. Always felt at ease leaving my children in the nursery's care and its been great seeing their development. Really appreciate the experiences they have had there.

Very unprofessional organisation. The local facilities near us was Kiddi Caru Hounslow (Middlesex). Met with the staff in October 2023 who were very welcoming and went through the process of enrolling very swiftly to start January 2024. Shared all the necessary personal data and completed the application forms. Even signed up to the Grandir app with login. 3 weeks later was told that corporately they are pulling the plug on the facilities as they are not going to renew the lease. Left my child emotionally hurt and distraught when he was told as he was looking forward to joining. I cannot imagine the feeling of other children who are already attending and now told to find another place from January 2024. This organisation comes across very cutthroat, as even the staff probably did not know otherwise they would not have enrolled my child. They basically don't come across caring for their staff (who are probably now jobless in the cost of living crisis we are experiencing) and they don't care about children's emotions and feelings. They say God works in mysterious ways, and we found a more caring nursery locally who promptly enrolled our son. We are very fortunate not sending our child to a nursery under the management of Grandir UK. We need more nurseries and schools in the UK, and this company does not care.

Absolute crooks. When the government announced that taxes would be deployed into child care to support families - Grandir announce fee increases to almost exactly the same amount. So parents remain under strain while their private business profits from the tax paid funding programmes.

Disgusting

Be very careful if you are thinking of selecting a nursery in this group to send your children to. They have today shuttered the nursery my kids attend with 3.5 weeks notice and thrown the 60 kids attending into the wild. Presumably the building will now be converted to flats. An unethical company without doubt. Not the sort of people to trust with your kids. Seriously, caveat emptor.
