Review from Rebecca M (Mother of Child) published on 16 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy has been coming here just once a week for the past month and he's settling in amazingly! All of the staff are so welcoming and reassuring. They update the app promptly so I am always aware on my child's meals and sleep. The meals he eats are of a great variety and he seems to enjoy them. They teach great independence with certain things like teeth brushing & pouring out their own cereal. I can't fault this nursery in any way, thank you

After a new transition into her room, my little girl has been made to feel welcome and loved. I feel confident leaving her and she loves it.

The nursery facilitated an extra day at short notice so i could go to work.

Review from Kimberley C (Mother of Child) published on 13 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

All 3 of my children have attended this nursery, it's always been outstanding and the staff are simply amazing! They do things with Millie that I don't have the time to do. They have such a good knowledge of her needs and she's progressed so much since she started in September! I couldn't recommend this nursery enough. Millie is a little mardy when she first goes in but previously in Tots Poppy was there and now in Toddlers Beth is there ready to scoop her up and give her cuddles which settles her quickly and Beth reassures her that Mummy is coming back later. Millie loves it when she's there and always comes home with a big smile and tells me she's really enjoyed it playing with her little friends.

Review from Bethany F (Mother of Child) published on 10 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been in kids planet baby house little lever since he was about 10/11 months old (now 14 months) and he has absolutely settled into his environment so well his teachers are so loving and caring and as a first time mum it's heart warming knowing my child gets the same love and care at nursery as he would at home, the teachers care for him as if he was their own and it puts my mind at ease knowing he is safe and happy to be around them and his friends, I couldn't recommended kids planet enough, I've never had any problems. Putting your child in nursery can be so scary especially your first child but I never have to worry about my son when he's there and his development every-time he comes home from nursery is amazing I see such a difference in him and his skills. His meals are all nutritious and homemade which I love! They keep you updated via the app when best they can and it's lovely to see what my little one is up to throughout the day. I can't thank the staff enough !!

Overall Experience

Great communication, easy to get along with, my son is happy, he enjoys going. Good variety of food at meal times. Lovely keep sakes made for special occasions to keep along with sisters who attended when she was a baby (10 years ago). Same staff looking after my son as did my daughter - I think when it is a low staff turn around, it speaks volumes! Welcoming atmosphere both environment and staff.

Review from E C (Mother of Child) published on 3 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We love this nursery for our little boy. Our little one has always been clingy and we were worried it wouldn't be a smooth transition for him to settle. However, since joining the staff at the nursery have done everything to help him settle and he has done so well. The staff treat him as one of their own, which we are very happy with.
The nursery gives off a family feel which instantly made us feel so welcome when we went for a show around. This hasn't changed since joining.
The baby room is new and looks amazing. It has so much space for him to enjoy.

The office staff have also been really helpful when it comes to bills and nursery information. They always seem happy to answer your questions.

Review from Ian F (Father of Child) published on 3 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our son loves nursery, he enjoys all of the facilities, enjoys the food (evident by him eating it all and more), the staff and his friends.
From the moment we drop him off in morning the staff take care of his needs and look out for his wellbeing. It's a home from home, he feels comfortable there and whenever he doesn't and he's a bit upset the staff will comfort him and put a smile back in his face.
Anything we ask of the staff is never too much trouble, they're great. They're attentive to our sons needs and also to the parents queries about his day too.

Being comfortable and happy with where Tom is and that he's safe and happy means the world to us and we truly think the staff at kids planet care

Great nursery where the staff are always friendly and lovely to the parents and the children. Never see an upset child there. My son is always looking forward to being there. They have activities planned for learning and social development which is great as we would struggle otherwise.

Review from Jayne H (Mother of Child) published on 20 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We always receive a warm welcome when entering Kids Planet. The staff are all friendly and helpful, giving information at the end of the day. If for some reason I need to rush off or the staff are busy looking after other children or talking to parents, I can find information on the app about my son's day. My Child is still a little unsettled when he enters but has gained confidence and now puts his arms up to his key person. The meal choices are a great variety and my son likes to take a piece of fruit which is available in the foyer at home time. The staff are very experienced and I really like the fact that many of the staff members are the same from when my now 10 year old went to the same nursery. The staff are currently helping my son with his speech development and I have seen a vast improvement.

Review from Rachel H (Mother of Child) published on 16 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with our daughter's experience at this wonderful nursery. From the moment we first visited, the warmth, professionalism, and care shown by the staff have been exceptional. Every member of the team is nurturing, enthusiastic, and genuinely invested in the children's development and wellbeing.

Our daughter has absolutely thrived here. She particularly loves the focus on outdoor learning, creativity, and developing independence in such a supportive environment.

Communication with parents is brilliant too. We always feel informed and included, whether it's through regular updates, photos, or chats at the door. It's clear how much time and thought goes into everything they do.

It's a joy to see our daughter so happy and excited to go to nursery each day. We're truly grateful for the positive impact this nursery has had on her early years. Thank you to the amazing staff-you've created a nurturing, inspiring, and joyful place for children to grow!
