Brilliant nursery, children are safe, happy and well looked after and cared for by the most lovely down to earth staff! My daughter loves her nursery and the staff are so supportive of her needs and emotions. I would of never have imagined sending my child to nursery at all but this nursery has been a godsend so grateful my daughter gets to go here.
Thank you for your kind words im so glad your little one is having a great time with us.
Lovely and kind staff. Look after the kids very well. The curriculam has more extra activities,specially outdoors. My kid loves to go there. Highly recomended. My kid enjoys the food and its a well balanced diet.
thank you so much we love having you here and thank you for all your supporting coming along to stay and play sessions and sharing these amazing experiences with us.
This nursery have been nothing short of absolutely amazing with my little boy since the start and have done everything possible to support not only me as a parent but also support my little boy through every emotion and experience that he's had since starting nursery for the first time. The daily activities and the running of the nursery are flawless and me as a parent am always updated throughout the day what my little lad has been up to and how much he is learning on a day to day basis and it really supports me as a parent and allows me to trust the nursery and all the wonderful staff there that are doing such a great job at looking after my boy. I couldn't be happier with mine and my partners choice of nursery for our little lad and the experience from start to finish has been nothing short of amazing and very easy to get everything set up. I couldn't recommend a nursery and a group of staff more as they are incredible. Thank you!
thank you so much for your kind words were all so happy you are enjoying your experience with us
If you had told me 2 years ago id have sent my child off to nursery then id have called you a big fat liar but kids planet Carrington have been absolutely amazing every single day. Nothing is too big or too small for them to do for my child. My child has absolutely blossomed within only a few months and I would seriously recommend every single member of their staff. They have completely changed my mind about sending children to nursery from a younger age and I would absolutely send any future children there from a younger age then I did with my 1st. Every single day they do activities, play and just completely enjoy themselves to the max! I would also like to add they are absolutely magic there because my fussy eater has changed so much! I love the nursery app they have with all the updates daily about my child. Kids planets Carrington have fully shown me how safe and happy my son is in their care.
Thank you so much its so nice to hear how amazing you are finding the experience and how well your little one has settled in .he is doing really well and im looking forward to continuing the journey with you
Our child has been coming since he was 6 months until 4 years old.
We could not be happier with how he has been at the nursery and pre school. He has improved so much and been so happy here.
The staff, children and parents are so lovely and kind.
thank you so much we are so pleased your time with us has been so positive.
Excellent value for money being an all inclusive setting!
Thank you for your kinds words it means a lot to the team
We love bringing my son to kids planet Carrington they update you frequently and my son enjoys being at nursery. All the staff are very friendly and communicate really well I would recommend this nursery to my friends and family my sons speech and his development has come so far since my son started going to this nursery
Thank you im really glad he is having a amazing time with us at kids planet Carrington.
We looked at multiple nurseries before picking one and we really won the lottery. There have been a few different managers and staff during our time there but they have all been fantastic.
The nursery is homey, fun, makes great use of the space especially for the location.
My daughter loves going and has made great bonds and built great relationships with other children and staff.
The current manager, is amazing. She has supported my daughter while we have been going through issues with her hearing. She is great at communicating, replying to emails quickly and always just a phone call away. She is hands on in supporting each of the rooms, not just sitting in an office.
Really special shout outs to a few members of staff who have been consistent presents in our lives and who we would be lost without.
I could not recommend more.
Thank you so much for your review it means a lot to us all .
My partner and I always drop her off feeling confident that she is in caring hands, and the warm, welcoming environment goes a long way towards this. We also feel that the staff make great efforts to follow up on any requests or concerns we have had. They have been very transparent and this is much appreciated.
We love dropping our daughter off in such a bright, colourful nursery where she is encouraged to learn in her own way.
Thank you very much for your kind words, we take pride in making sure all children's needs are met and all children are happy and content.
My boy recently started this month in the baby room. I was so anxious due to him being overly attached and his first time being away from me. I finally decided on Kids Planet Carrington as a nursery for him and glad I did! The staff in the room are very reassuring, and honest and put in the time with him to help settle in. They kept me updated and put my mind at ease. I get snapshots of him at nursery during the day which makes me feel happier. The rooms look great and there are plenty of activities out for the children to choose from.
Kids Planet was our first choice - partly because of the facts and figures and wonderful activities but also because my instinct said so (you just know, right?) I could leave for work knowing my children were in capable, caring hands.
There are lots of activities/initiatives: yoga, allotment tending and Udeskole (outdoor learning), as well as the picnics, celebrations of cultural festivals, and the usual painting, play dough, etc. I love logging into the app to find out what they've been up to.
Also, a small thing but with the car park behind, parking/drop off is easy and safe (and I can get some shopping done before pick-up!)
Thank you so much for inviting us to the amazing leaving party. My child had the best time and loved every minute of it. Thank you so much to all the wonderful staff that looked after my son and gave him a special leaving party thank you
Communication with parents is excellent, with regular updates, photos, and detailed reports on our daughter's activities and development.
The facilities are modern, clean, and well-equipped, with fantastic outdoor play areas for physical activity and exploration. We highly recommend Kids Planet Carrington for its nurturing, educational, and supportive environment.
We have also been receiving learning framework indicators of where our child is at (through learning stories on the app) which has hugely helped with school readiness as we are aware of areas he may need some support in and where he is confident. We also had a lovely graduation party at the premises where proper goodbyes could be said. We will be sad for him to leave but school and further adventure awaits!
The staff are very present and approachable, informative and kind and loving. They really do care for the child and my child, everyday enjoyed and wanted to attend.
If anyone is looking for nursery places in and around Sherwood, I would highly recommend Kids Planet Carrington - it's a special place where my children have loved playing and learning.
Lovely nursery all around. The staff were so reassuring with me and my 100 questions! Really made so much effort and all were very attentive with my daughter. Always had loads of activities and sensory play which my daughter really enjoys. Some mornings my daughter would take longer to settle and the staff always tried their best to calm her and always did. Really good choice of hot foods too. Really couldn't fault anything. We will miss the nursery and staff. Thank you for everything.
We are very happy, my daughter improved a lot with her speaking skills and activities. She is able to pronounce alphabets, numbers and colors etc. She is doing yoga as well. She is very happy to go to Kids Planet every day.
The nursery is perfect, they always keep me updated with progress and activities they do, never had a single issue with them so yeah they always call if my child has am accident or to get permission for something. The meals are lovely, my child always comes home happy.
Food is provided and the children enjoy it.
It has been a pleasure to see our children blossom since starting the nursery in January. You can see the difference in their development and interaction with others/each other.
