Kids Planet George Perkins is an Ofsted "Good" rated nursery (May 2023) situated just 2.5 miles from the City Centre. The emphasis is on ensuring their practice is the best it can be and in 2017 received Level 3 accreditation as a “Healthy Setting” which led on to being shortlisted for the 2017 Nursery World Awards in the Health and Wellbeing category, recognising their “Building Healthy Lives” initiative.

The nursery aims to be the children’s second home and they have embraced the cosy atmosphere of being based in a house whilst being versatile in the use of space, keeping separate rooms for small groups of children when needed and then opening up to provide a free-flow environment to maximise access to a wide range of facilities and opportunities for them to develop. The nursery is divided into three units, the Under 2s (Babies and Tots), Toddlers and Preschool.

Parents are recognised as their children’s first educators and communication between home and nursery is encouraged in a variety of ways. In addition to the informal discussions held regularly with parents regarding day to day developments, biannually Parents’ Evenings are held, providing reports detailing children’s progress and which also offer workshops on aspects of child development and parenting.

Regular newsletters are sent out to keep parents informed and there are several opportunities to go into the nursery to join in with activities with their child; there are regular “Stay and Play” sessions as well as opportunities like pancake making on Pancake Day, afternoon tea on Mothers Day and many more festivities.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our child had a wonderful experience at Kids Planet George Perkins Nursery. From the very beginning, the staff were warm, attentive, and made him feel completely at home. The care and dedication they showed were exceptional-he was always happy, engaged, and thriving in their nurturing environment.


We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing he was safe, learning, and enjoying his time there. The staff's enthusiasm and kindness are truly commendable-they create a welcoming atmosphere where children feel valued and supported.


The nursery's facilities are fantastic, with a great mix of structured learning and free play, both indoors and outdoors. The management is highly professional, communicative, and always approachable.


We couldn't have asked for a better start to our child's early years-thank you to the entire team for their outstanding care! **Highly recommend.**

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All staff at the nursery are kind, caring and genuinely look happy to be there every day. They are extremely welcoming, enthusiastic and always smiling. They are really caring and nurturing with the children and do a good mix of learning activities and also allowing free play. Children are always engaged
and happy. My daughter absolutely loves it there and I feel confident that she is safe and cared for - all her keyworkers have been absolutely fantastic and she has great relationships with all the staff. I would be absolutely exhausted from looking after little kids all day, but none of the staff ever seem tired!


The outdoor space is absolutely brilliant and the preschool indoor space is really large and nicely laid out.


The manager communicates really well and always answers emails. She is very present and approachable. She also really cares for all the children and gets involved with them.

I can't rate this nursery enough. My first daughter has been here since she was 1 year old and left this August to start school. And she still talks about the staff and her friends she made there. She always loved going. My second daughter is now going here and she is in baby room currently and it hasn't
taken her long to settle into nursery! She smiles when I pick her up. I have built up such a great relationship with the nursery staff and feel able to tell them how I feel about things. And they give back such detailed end-of-day reports of the children.

The staff and management are amazing. This is one of the best nurseries I know. They do so much with the children, my daughter comes home every day learning so much, it shocked me what she picked up on a daily basis. They were really helpful and accommodating with a swap of days I needed for a family
funeral and they were amazing and so understanding about it all.

This is a nursery that really cares about the children in it's care. My daughter has formed very close attachments to several of the nursery staff and she views them as much part of her inner circle of trusted people as us!
They respond to the child's emotional and physical needs and provide care which
is personalised - moving them into different spaces for sleep/play/comfort as the children require and will benefit from most. We trust them with our daughter implicitly and haven't hesitated to sign up our second child. Outstanding care.

We love sending our daughter to George Perkins Nursery, we know she is well looked after, cared for and learning to grow in a nurturing environment. She comes home fulfilled and worn out which is perfect! All the staff are so kind and friendly and they always take the time to explain what she has been
up to during her day. The nursery always has a calm and pleasant atmosphere and we are very grateful to all the staff for looking after and helping to raise our daughter.

I have nothing but praise for the staff at George Perkins. They helped ease me and my 11-month-old into our new routine in August 2023. The ladies in the baby room are full of kindness and compassion and are wonderful with all the babies and come up with lovely creative play, getting them outside regularly
and baking. I love seeing what he gets up to on the app and I always get a thorough handover at the end of each day.

Our son loves going to Kids Planet George Perkins, which is the most important thing. The staff there are caring and kind, and we have seen our son make friends and play with many different children. They are responsive to queries and emails. The premises are clean and there is a nice outdoor space
which our son enjoys, and I like the proactive attitude of staff or taking the kids outside whenever possible. Well done Manager and team!

Our son has been going to George Perkins since June and full-time since October. He seems so happy and is thriving there. We get regular updates and pictures that document his activities and progress. He loves the nursery staff there and it seems such a warm and friendly environment when we drop him

A warm, supportive environment for both parents and children alike. The caring and compassionate staff at George Perkins feel like an extension of our family. My 2-year-old asks to be at nursery on her days off - a testament to how hard the staff work to make the nursery a home from home.

The staff at George Perkins have helped both of my girls settle in comfortably this year. They love the different activities on offer, themes of the week and especially the well-maintained outdoor area. They have both learned so much in the short time they have spent there and I could only imagine this

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.901)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.901) out of 10 for Kids Planet George Perkins is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.901 for Kids Planet George Perkins is calculated as follows: ( (229 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.901
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet George Perkins is based on 21 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 63 number of registered child places is 12.6, which has been reached with 21 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
