My overall experience of the nursery since my son joined in Sept 25 is that the staff are caring, communicative, friendly and always happy to give me a daily update on my child. They listen to feedback and act accordingly, my son is very settled and has made some fantastic relationships with the team there, allowing him to settle quickly and enjoy his days whilst at nursery. The menu is varied and my son eats very well so it must be tasty also. I love how they update the app in real time so that I can see what he's eating, when he's gone to sleep etc. Very reassuring for parents. Overall I haven't had any issues since my son started there and I would reccommend this nursery to other parents if considering Country Park - Kids Planet.
The app for us a key way to let you know how the day is going, and the team love sharing different experiences with you. We know how important it is when you are leaving your child with us. The team go the extra mile to make sure parents have regular up dates. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.
I couldn't be happier with the care and support my daughter receives at this nursery. From the moment we first walked through the doors, the staff made us feel welcomed, reassured, and confident that we had chosen the right place. The team is incredibly nurturing, patient, and genuinely invested in each child's happiness and development.
My daughter has grown so much socially and her speech has come along too. The learning environment is fun, creative, and thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity and independence.
Communication with parents is excellent-clear, consistent, and always friendly. I love receiving updates, photos, and insights into her day. It's evident that the nursery prioritizes safety, wellbeing, and high-quality early education in everything they do.
We feel incredibly grateful to have found such a wonderful nursery.
Thank you for this lovely review. Staff work hard to create a stimulating environment were children can thrive and become life long learners. We love to share the experiences with the parents and we know how important it is to have a insight into your child's day. Thank you for choosing Country Park
Since our daughter has been attending kids planet day nursery we've seen a huge progress in all areas of her learning. Her social skills and speech have came on leaps and bounds in such a short period of time. She has built fantastic relationships with all staff who are always so friendly and helpful to not only our daughter but to us as parents too. Our daughter accesses a wide range of activities that she always loves to get involved in from singing, signs to messy play in the indoor/outdoor environment. She is always so happy and excited to arrive at the nursery which always helps as first time parents knowing our daughter is content and safe.
We love to see the children developing in all areas and we are so happy to have bonds with our parents. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about our wonderful nursery.
The support from the staff since he started has been excellent and attentive throughout. As a family we feel confident knowing that whatever the weather, the staff will endeavour to find a range of activities both indoors and outdoors to not only occupy but develop our son's skill set. We have been very impressed and would recommend this nursery to other parents.
The team work hard to develop new exciting activities to challenge and develop children's learning. Thank you for your kind words
Nursery is so much more than somewhere for him to go while we work, it's amazing for his development and we can't ask for a better experience.
Thank you all so much
The baby team strive to build solid bonds with parents and babies. They know the importance of this as its the start of a child's nursery journey. We are so happy to be able to give you this reassurance and watch your child grow and develop. Thank you for your kind words we really appreciate the time you have taken to write this review
I feel so comfortable in leaving my little boy with every single member of staff here as they're all so lovely & attentive, they always seem to have a smile on there faces which puts one on mine instead of worrying! His development has also come on leaps and bounds since being here, I can see a massive change! Thankyou to each and everyone one of you, I couldn't recommend this nursery enough!
The team love sharing the children's experiences with you on the famly app. We know how important it is to have an insight into your child's day at nursery. The team work hard to create lots of activities with awe and wonder for all the children. We love to celebrate these reviews and I will share...
Lots of outdoor play and activities which we loved. They also provide monthly home learning bags which contain a different activity to do ar home. Even our older child got excited about these!!
Id definitely recommend kids planet Country Park!!
The staff love developing the home learning bags and sharing these with the children and their siblings. Outdoor learning is so important to us a nursery with so many benefits. The staff love getting out in the community and on our Udeskole session. Thank you so much for your review we really appreciate the kind words
I feel very comfortable leaving my child in the care of the staff at country park. I'm glad I found this nursery and can't wait to see how his development progresses once he is fully settled in
We appreciate your thoughtful review of our baby room.
When we visited the nursery for my little boy we just knew it was the one. The feeling is just so homely which is what we wanted. As for the staff I couldn't ask for more. They are so supportive not only of my little one but of me, especially when he first started which was quite possibly harder for me than him. My little one has come on such a long way since starting I couldn't be more happier with a nursery for my little boy.
Its been a pleasure supporting you and your son on your return to work, which we know is not easy. Our team is always there to support and we are glad we could make the transition a little easier for you. Thank you so much for the lovely feedback.
I feel that the staff really listen and take a real interest in my child and his day to day routine and every day that I drop him off he's genuinely excited to see the staff and to be there.
He's settled in so well, very quickly and it's made the wrench of having to put him into nursery much less daunting for me.
He had plenty of settling in sessions prior to starting at the nursery and I feel the transition could not have gone smoother.
All in all, I'm very happy with the nursery so far and I'm very glad I chose to send my child there.
The staff work hard to build a solid foundation and bonds within the settling in sessions with children and parents. Thank you for kind words we really appreciate the review
Special mention to one of the members of staff who has been great over the years so nice to her progress at the nursery! Likewise with the manager both ladies are fab! All the staff overall cannot rate them enough!! I would give them 10 stars if I could ! Very very pleased!
We are so happy to have you back at Country Park. We love to see parents returning and watching your little one grow. Thank you for your kind words
The main thing that makes this nursery amazing is the staff - 4 staff members in particular are amazing ! My girls adore them ! They go above and beyond to make sure the children are happy and settled.
We loved to be able to provide our forest session which we will be developing over the coming months. The children have enjoyed their trips into the local community especially going to the library. We really appreciate your review.
All staff are polite, caring and professional.
I couldn't of asked for a better nursery for my child to attend thank you all!!
We are happy to hear you are having a great start to nursery life within Country Park. Thank you for the review
I also really appreciate how much time the children get to spend outdoors here, my younger daughter is in the baby room and loves playing in the baby garden. My older daughter really loved going to Forest School regularly with the nursery, and still often talks about it.
The staff work together to come up with new exciting activities for all the rooms, the teams are very dedicated to making the time at nursery a positive and fun learning environment for all. Outdoors has big impact in children's development and we make the most of our lovely outdoor woodland area. We are grateful for your lovely words and this review.
I can't praise the staff enough, I was a nervous wreck about leaving her but everybody was so reassuring and I got lots of picture updates.
Even if I called multiple times a day, they showed no annoyance!
Our girl has honestly come on leaps and bounds after starting, she's so talkative!
The feedback we get at the end of each day is honestly the highlight of our days, if I don't do pick up, they feed back to me at drop off.
They've always been so accommodating of her needs, following a vegan diet, taking extra time and care if she's grumpy with her teething.
They've always know her inside and out and really tailor their care to knowing what she responds to.
I recommend our nursery to anyone I get the opportunity to!
Thank so much for these kind words. The baby room team work incredibly hard to reassure parents especially when parents are returning to work as we know this can be a difficult time. Building key bonds with our babies are so important to us as a team. We love to provide updates throughout the day...
The staff have always taken the time to get to know my children, their interests and preferences. The nursery have provided a safe and engaging environment for the children to develop and challenged them to progress in their learning.
My eldest was well prepared for school when she left the nursery, having confidence to go into a new environment with all new people and excel.
My youngest is in the baby room now and enjoys attending nursery and is always excited when she sees the baby room staff.
Its great to hear that your eldest is thriving in school. The baby room staff work hard to build the secure bonds with the babies so they can develop in all areas of learning. Thank you for your kind words.
I've rated everything 5* because my experiences, with both of my children in this nursery have been and continue to be excellent.
As a parent, the transition for Hollies to Kids Planet has been unproblematic. Communications have been appropriate and relevant. Even regarding payments, it's felt easy, I've felt well-informed. The staff have adapted to the change brilliantly. Meaning consistency for parents and the children.
We strived to make the transition from Hollies to Kids Planet as smooth as we could. Thank you for your kind words.
Both of our children have attended Kids Planet (previously Hollie's) Country Park. My eldest successfully graduated in the sweetest ceremony and is now managing well at primary school, thanks to the team at nursery for helping to prepare her for this transition. My youngest still attends and thoroughly enjoys her time here. Knowing they are comfortable and happy makes leaving them so much easier. On the occasional times when I have had any concerns regarding either child, the staff have stepped in to help support and overcome any issues promptly, showing their dedication to the children, families, and nursery. Staff have always been friendly and approachable. A particular thanks to the long-standing staff over the last 3 years who have made our experience more personal... 5 members of staff in particular.
The highlight of the year are the graduations we love to celebrate all the achievements the children have made over their time at the country park. It's good to hear that you have felt supported with any concerns. We try our best to resolve anything and provide any support that is needed. Thank you...
Our son started here in Feb 2022 and has come on leaps and bounds. He has made great friendship groups with both children and staff and has been really happy through each room he has moved into. We will be sad to leave but feel he is now ready for the next step in preparing for his new school in a new location. A big thank you to all the staff at the Arnold Country Park site.
It's been a pleasure and joy to watch the children grow and develop within the nursery. We are sad to see the children leave but feel so proud to be part of their nursery journey. We wish you well in your new school. Thank you for your kind comments and review.
Every member of staff has been fantastic with special thanks for their incredible dedication and support. They've created a loving, stimulating environment where our son has developed socially, emotionally and intellectually.
Kids Planet has been fundamental in helping him grow into a happy, confident and curious boy. We'll always be grateful for the care and attention they've given him and highly recommend the nursery to any parent.
Thank you for giving him such a strong foundation for the future.
The staff work incredibly hard and so nice to give them this amazing feedback. We strive to provide an exciting and stimulating environment. Thank you for the kind words and taking the time to write this review.
