Review from Jessica P (Mother of Child) published on 3 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am really happy with how the nursery has progressed with in the last 9/10 months. I was getting to the point of looking for a new nursery for Otis, however the staff turn over has settled down, a routine has been established more with the kids and their day to day activities.

A massive reason that I chose this nursery was due to the outdoor space, forest school and they used to have chickens. This is before kids planet took over. When kids planet took over it really did go to pot and it didn't feel like the kids happiness and safety was the main focus. Slowly forest school has been introduced back it, which Otis loves! I think it's really important that they are outside a lot of the time.

It generally really has improved and a new offstead should happen as I am sure it would get a different outcome now.

Well done team for turning it around x

Review from S N (Mother of Child) published on 25 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We've had children at this nursery for 2½ years and it's been such a positive experience for our family. The staff are incredibly responsive, not just to the children's emotional and physical needs, but to their individual preferences too. They really see each child.

They've built wonderful relationships with the team, especially Katie, Mia, Emma, Deanna and Richard. They even talk about Indra, the nursery chef, and love learning about the food they eat.

The Udeskole provision has gone from strength to strength. Under Nic's management, the nursery has never been better. It's also lovely to see Nic so hands on with the children, not just in the office. The children are genuinely fond of her.

I never hesitate to recommend this nursery. We truly appreciate you all. Keep doing what you do, the children love you all.

Overall Experience

Amazing place for a child to be and puts my mind at rest knowing little one is happy. Progressed so much since starting and you can see this when she's at home. Love that we have live updates and love even more when I get pictures to see what she's been up to.

Overall Experience

This nursery is so lovely, set in woodlands in a quiet area next to a meditation centre and a secondary school, you couldn't ask for a better location. The building and garden is lovely and we love how much they get the children outside to play and eat, I know this is something they're going to be doing even more of with buying a part of the woods to do forestry school activities etc the team are all really lovely and you can tell they all really care about the children. They made the transition of going to nursery as smooth as possible for my little girl and while it's never easy knowing she was in safe hands and enjoying herself really helped. The updates on the app really help to give you peace of mind, my only comment would be that these can sometimes be a little sporadic in terms of how often it's updated but I understand they're very busy!

Overall Experience

I have nothing but positive things to say about Kids Planet Gedling. The staff are absolutely fantastic, they know both my children so well and really take the time to understand them as individuals. There are always lots of planned activities, messy play, outdoor play and structured learning. My eldest daughter is regularly coming home reciting the alphabet, spelling her name or singing songs for the days of the week. There have been lots of improvements made to the nursery recently all of which are adding to the overall experience. The food is great and both girls love all the food made by the attentive chef, who is as equally invested in the children and takes the time to really understand their dietary requirements. Both my children's key workers are fantastic and are like extended family to my girls. My youngest is 3 weeks in and thriving, thanks to the baby room lead. Nothing is too much trouble and she is so supportive of my daughter. I would highly recommend this nursery!

Overall Experience

As soon we walked into Daisy’s, we fell in love with the outside space and the caring/professional staff. We really feel that they know our daughter well and not just meeting her next developmental steps. We feel confident to approach staff when we have queries and it is dealt with sensitivity and with diligence. They have created a diverse setting which is something we really value and always strive to be inclusive for a range of families. Our daughter loves Forest School and setting up campfires and she had the opportunity to learn Spanish too. We regularly talk about Daisy’s and how brilliant they are and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Nicola Oakes Job Title: Nursery Manager
Nicola Oakes

I have worked in childcare for over 15 years and have been with the company for 5. I am passionate about early years education and believe it is a privilege to support children during their formative years. Through my training, I studied the Reggio Emilia approach in Italy and have since embedded it into our nursery, encouraging child-led play and meaningful experiences. As a manager, I value strong relationships with every child and enjoy being hands-on—whether that’s building obstacle courses, playing with puppets, or exploring clay.
