We have one 3yo attending this nursery at the moment and are planning to send our second child here once she is old enough. The staff are all extremely friendly and knowledgeable and our child is always happy to go to nursery in the morning. The different rooms and outdoor space are all well equipped for different age ranges with lots of learning opportunities through play.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're so glad we were able to work together to help your little one settle in to the nursery. We really appreciate your trust, patience and willingness to keep going with us, even when things felt challenging at first. By working together and staying consistent, we are so pleased to see how far she has come. It's a wonderful reminder on how important the partnership between parents and nursery is.

Fantastic nursery - couldn't recommend them enough. This is our second child attending the nursery and we couldn't be happier. We were so proud of how our eldest developed during his time here, so sending our youngest was an easy decision. He's absolutely loving it, and the staff are always so warm, caring, and welcoming. It's been great watching both our boys thrive here. Thank you to the whole team!

The staff are friendly, caring and genuinely get to know each child individually, which is so reassuring as a parent.

My daughter has gone from just being a Mummy's girl to being a Mummy's girl and loving Nursery. It was a big thing for us to send our little girl to Nursery as the only people she has ever been with is her Grandad and Nanna, the Nursery has been patient, understanding and lovely towards her and I am glad that Kids Planet gets to be apart of her growth and development. The staff communicate extremely well on collections and drop offs and always tells me descriptively how her day has been. She has already formed great relationships with her peers and staff members and speaks very highly of those she associates with.
Thank you for taking the time to share such a heartfelt review. It means so much to us to know that we have have had the privilege of being part of your journey and your child's early years.

My daughter started at this nursery when she was just 9 months old and is now almost 2. The amazing team have made her transition into nursery so easy, and she settled in wonderfully from the very beginning. The staff are truly fantastic - they are always friendly, approachable and happy to offer help or advice whenever needed. They have built such a wonderful bond with my daughter, and it is clear to see how much they genuinely care about her. The team go above and beyond to make sure the children are happy, safe and well cared for. They treat every child as though they were their own, and that really shines through in the care and attention they provide. I couldn't be happier with the nursery and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring, welcoming and supportive environment for their child.

I had to start my son in nursery from 7 months which was earlier than I hoped but he has settled in so well at this nursery. He has come on so much developmentally and socially. He has a big smile on his face when I drop him off in the mornings and the staff are always so lovely and keep me updated...

Our experience was impacted by ongoing communication and admin issues. We encountered repeated problems with invoices and funding calculations, both before and after the takeover, and often found ourselves having to chase explanations and verify figures. Communication was reactive rather than proactive, leaving us feeling that parents were expected to identify and resolve issues themselves.
Our biggest concern however related to food provision. Our child regularly came home hungry, and we did not feel these concerns were taken seriously, even after raising them formally. With fees increasing by 20% two years in a row, we expected to see improvements in care, communication and overall provision, but this was not our experience.
Better communication, accountability and attention to detail would have made a significant difference
At the...
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. I am sorry to hear that you felt communication around billing was poor and the food didn't meet your expectations. We always aim to communicate clearly and provide a good experience so I'm disappointed that this was not your experience.At the same time I do feel it is important to acknowledge the wider relationship we have had over the years. We had the privilege of looking after your two children for a number of years and throughout this time we always listened to and addressed any concerns you raised with us. We always try to provide a high standard of care, support and a positive experience to all the children in our care.
We respect that everyone can have a different perspective, we remain proud of the care we have given your children and wish them and your family all the best for the future.

Kids Planet School House is an amazing nursery. My little girl has thrived so much, feels comfortable and is safe. She has had the best two years here. Can't fault the staff at all, they go above and beyond and have taught her so much! Highly recommend

My daughter has been attending School House since she was 9 months old, and is now over 4 years old and will be finishing next week to start school. From the beginning all the staff have been incredible and always so friendly towards myself, my partner and our daughter. She absolutely loves going to nursery every day, and we love to see her smiling at drop off and pick up! I couldn't have wished for a better nursery for our daughter, and will all be so sad to not go there anymore once she starts school! Thank you to everyone that has made her time there as amazing as possible.

My son started at Kids planet in Middleton when he was a little over 2.5, having never been in a nursery setting before. I can't praise the staff enough for settling him so well (and easing my apprehension too!). His development in the few months he's been there is already apparent, and he truly enjoys going to nursery. The staff are warm, kind, and engaging for the little ones - I can't say enough positive things. We also really enjoy all of the little extra touches that the nursery provide, such as parties at special times of the year - Halloween, Christmas etc. I'm really glad we picked kids planet, and look forward to seeing my son's continued progression throughout his time there. A big thank you to all of the lovely staff for everything you do, it doesn't go unnoticed!
We are so happy with the placement for our daughter. All of the staff are incredibly friendly, caring, and patient, and it's clear they genuinely care about the children.

We love the frequent updates and photos on the app, as it's wonderful to see the wide variety of activities the children take part in and the different toys they get to enjoy.
A special mention to Shamny, the manager, who is amazing and always so helpful and supportive. We couldn't be happier with our experience so far!

I cannot recommend Kids Planet highly enough! My twin boys have been going here for six months. They initially found it really hard to settle, but the team-especially Shammy and Anna-were unbelievably patient, kind, and supportive. Thanks to their amazing care, our boys now go into nursery happy and smiling every single day. It's such a relief as a parent to know they are in such safe, loving hands.
The staff are genuinely warm. They have helped build her confidence and find her voice, and the progress in how she communicates has been clear to see at home too.

The staff are genuinely warm. They have helped build her confidence and find her voice, and the progress in how she communicates has been clear to see at home too.
We have also been struck by how carefully the team thinks about each child, and the key worker arrangements reflect that. A particular thank you to Merrish, who has been attentive and supportive.
A special mention to Shammy, who encouraged our daughter through her first swimming lessons. That bit of encouragement made a real difference.
The setting itself is clean and well run, and communication with parents is regular and easy. We always know how her day has been.
We would recommend this nursery very highly!
My daughter started at this nursery when she was under four months old, and she is now two years old. She absolutely loves attending. Although she only goes two full days a week, every time we drive nearby, she asks to see her friends, which really shows how happy she is there.

The staff genuinely care about the children and consistently go the extra mile to ensure they feel safe, supported, and happy. I particularly appreciate how they take the time to explain the different childcare support options available and what might benefit families, while always respecting that the final decision is ours.
I am very grateful for the team and fully trust them with my daughter. She has developed so well during her time there and at her two-year health visitor assessment, she was above average in her development.
Thank you to all the staff for your care and dedication.

It has now been 6 months since he started and I cannot complain at all. Our little boy enjoys going to nursery every day, he smiles when he sees the staff and walks in on his own in a morning. He's developing rapidly and enjoying the different activities that the nursery put on for him. He enjoys the variety of food/snacks provided and is doing very well eating at home.
If we have another child I will not hesitate to put them in at the School House and would recommend it to anyone.
My baby has settled into this nursery very well. The staff are friendly, informative and go above and beyond in their job role. Within the first week I can see my baby has developed new skills and is happy and content.

Fantastic nursery. Every member of staff goes above and beyond to make the children feel safe and happy. My daughter found it difficult to start nursery at the age of 2 and a half but with time and plenty of care from all staff, she now loves going to nursery. As a fussy eater, her food preferences are very limited, however, her teachers know her likes and dislikes and ensure that she always has a meal that she likes. My son will be starting there in a few months, wouldn't send him anywhere else.

I am the Nursery Manager at Kids Planet School House and have worked in childcare since 2007, progressing through the sector into a leadership role. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing and inspiring environment where every child feels happy, valued and confident to learn and grow. I truly love what I do and believe that when staff feel supported, valued and empowered, they are able to provide the very best care and experiences for children.
Outside of the nursery, I enjoy spending money I probably shouldn’t (mostly on good food!) and relaxing with a challenging 1,000-piece puzzle. I am also a very proud mum to two grown-up children, who have both now flown the nest and are busy making their own way in the world.
