Review of Kids Planet Darlington from N H (Mother of Child) published on 24 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We love this little nursery for our daughter. All the staff are so nice and welcoming and you always get a really good update through the app during the day but also at collection. Since our daughter has been going here (she started when she was 11 months old and she's now 2 and 3 months), she's come on so much and we know that part of this is because of her surroundings at nursery. We obviously love all the staff but our little girl has taken an extra special likening to Tilly and we often get told on mornings when she's going to nursery that she's 'off to play with Tilly's, which as a parent is so reassuring to hear.

Review of Kids Planet Darlington from Ciara Q (Mother of Child) published on 24 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has attended Kids Planet from 18 months old. We are delighted with the nursery, the staff and the activities. My girl thrives there and often asks to go on a weekend. She has learned so much, tries new things and has grown in confidence. The girls at nursery really take the time to get to know the kids in their care, and the relationship they have built with my daughter is lovely. Their love for her reflected in her love for them. Knowing she is so well cared for and really challenged has really helped me manage being a working mum and seeing her so happy to go in at drop off lets me know that it is the right place for her.

I cannot imagine entrusting anyone else with my daughter's education in care in her most important formative years, Kids Planet have got her off to a brilliant start.

Review of Kids Planet Darlington from Rita A (Mother of Child) published on 24 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
It is hard to put into words how grateful we are to the amazing team at Kids Planet for giving Kyra the most wonderful first year at nursery.
Starting nursery was a big adjustment, and the first few weeks were challenging, but the love, patience, and reassurance from the team made all the difference. Not long Kyra got too excited to go to nursery and would often go hide in the bathroom when it was time to come home because she wanted to stay with her teachers and friends. Kyra has blossomed into a confident, happy, bubbly little girl who has made wonderful friendships and come on so much in her development. The teachers has supported us through important milestones, including potty training, and always made us feel like we were in it together. Kids Planet has such a warm, family feel, and the care and communication are second to none.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving Kyra such a happy, safe, and unforgettable start. We will never forget the kindness and love.

Overall Experience
My little one has been kids Planet durham since 2022. Throughout her whole time here, the staff have been amazing. I couldn't wish for better people to have been apart of her young childhood. The care they give her is brilliant. My little one loves her nursery days and talks about everyone and everything she does daily. Thank you for making everyday so much fun for her. She has created so many amazing bonds with staff and the children over the years and as parents that is all we ever wanted for her.

The only place i would ever recommend to anyone

Review of Kids Planet High Bank from Joanne S (Mother of Child) published on 5 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little boy has been with High Bank since being a baby and is due to finish this summer ahead of moving on to school. His younger sister also attends the nursery and has settled well in her time there so far.
The class grouping by age means that activities are tailored specifically for their developmental stage - it's really lovely to receive photo updates of what they have been exploring, whether that be forest school, reading or playing with toy animals in gloop!
The staff throughout all classes are wonderfully caring and encourage appropriate levels of learning and creativity.
Access to the outdoors was a huge priority for us and High Bank offers a unique environment for them to explore the world around them.

Activities such as gardening, sports, and French help make the nursery's environment truly unique. They provide enriching experiences that support my children's growth and development, giving them the opportunity to thrive during such an important stage of their lives.

Review of Kids Planet High Bank from Emma S (Mother of Child) published on 2 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little girl has been attending High bank since she was about 9 months old and is currently 2 years 2 months, she has been in three rooms across her time and each room has been fabulous. The staff are just the loveliest, hardest working bunch. The effort they put in to creating a fun, friendly environment with endless learning opportunities is second to none. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds in this nursery, and she will be remaining here until school age. As a mother with older kids who have attended around 5 nurseries between them across the local area, this is miles above and my little one literally runs in every morning.
Set in the countryside, visiting the farm animals in nursery time and before and after with us is a highlight for all of the family and we look forward to seeing them every day!

The food is fresh and home cooked and having tasted it personally I can see why my daughter always has seconds. Highly, highly reccomend.

My little boy recently started at Kids Planet High Bank in the babies room and I have been impressed with the facility so far. He settled in really quickly and the staff are really kind and caring, taking the time to get to know him and make sure he is happy and having fun. I love the outdoor space and there's always some fun activity going on to ensure he is learning and developing. I'm really looking forward to watching him grow at High Bank.

Overall Experience
Both of my children attend High Bank and have since age 9 month old. I wish they could stay until 16 yrs. The staff are amazing the grounds are beautiful and the learning is excellent, children love their days at nursery, and have been well learned and prepared for school, from academic learning to talk training getting dressed + being independant.

I would like to just add the staff are exceptional, caring.

Review of Kids Planet High Bank from S R (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with high bank nursery and the care our child receives. Since starting here in 2024, our child has grown so much in confidence, independence, and social skills. The progress we've seen has been amazing, and it's clear how thoughtfully the team supports each child's individual development.

The staff do a wonderful job of teaching key skills through fun, engaging activities, and the nursery places a strong emphasis on outdoor learning. The udeskole approach and the many opportunities to be outside have been fantastic for our child's development, encouraging curiosity, resilience, and a real love for learning in nature.

Our child settled in extremely well and is always happy and eager to attend, which is very reassuring for us as parents. The nursery provides a nurturing, safe, and stimulating environment, with excellent communication and a truly dedicated team all staff go a. We would highly recommend this nursery to any family. We have our son joining this year.

We have always been incredibly impressed with the provision offered at High Bank. Since joining in the babies all the way through to the toddlers room I have always felt supported as a parent and that the staff genuinely care about the children. Our son has come out of his shell, is so confident and loves going to nursery. I can't recommend high bank enough!

Review of Kids Planet High Bank from S M (Mother of Child) published on 19 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child has attended High Bank since he was 15 months old and has always been very happy there. Since High Bank was taken over by Kids Planet there has been a significant improvement in the communication between staff and parents and the facilities/equipment have improved a great deal too. They follow a forest school ethos and spend as much time as possible exploring the natural environment. The outdoor facilities are brilliant and the indoor spaces are also great for rainy days.

My son is loving the weekly football and French lessons as well as visiting the animals on the farm and the recent addition of the tipi preschool classroom. I highly recommend this nursery/preschool.
