Our daughter has been coming to Kids Planet for 2 years now, and she loves every second here. She learns so much from socialising to maths/numbers, to speech-related things and cultural aspect, Kids Planet does an amazing job at providing playful learning environments. Parents and staff communication is also incredible, find out about her day and next steps in learning etc I've never felt a single moment of 'is she safe there' her needs are always met! We could not have wished for a better nursery or better staff to look after our daughter.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! Its great to how happy you are with the care and learning opportunities we provide.

Hanford Nursery has been good for my little one, he has become more sociable. He comes back cheerful and wanting to sing. Of course he is also tired from playing.

We have loved our first half-term with Ollie in the tots room. He has settled in perfectly! We are very happy parents. A big thank you to the team x
Thank you for your lovely feedback, I am so glad the settling is process has been a happy experience for you as a family!
In a word....INCREDIBLE!
The food, the play, the activities, she loves all of them and her vocab has extended more as well which has been brilliant.
The staff here really do consider the child first and cater to their wellbeing and needs and really focus on helping the children learn and grow as well as having fun while doing it.
Though they're busy, they always have time for a quick chat and always keep parents updated on what their child has been up to throughout the day through the app and always respond to emails.
Love this place and the staff so much. So very glad we didn't look anywhere else.
