Absolutely amazing nursery, very engaging with the children, my child always comes home happy and excited to tell me about all the fun he has had at nursery, the staff couldn't do enough to keep me informed about my child's day at nursery!
Couldn't recommend enough
My little one has been attending since September 2024. I visited a few Nurseries prior to applying to this one and none of them was as good as Kids Planet. The facial recognition and finger print access gives you so much confidence with the safety provided to your baby. Since joining, all the staff have been incredible and so helpful, even staff that arent in your baby's room. The staff in the office are also amazing, theres always someone there to help and they will go the extra mile for you when needed. I cannot recommend this Nursery enough. If youre thinking about sending your child/ren here, dont hesitate, just do it!
The staff and management are great at this setting always supportive and know all the children's needs impeccable! The outdoor area does need refurbishing and improvements made to keep the children engaged while outside!
Excellent nursery, staff in my child's room are all lovely and listen to my preferences for my child. The nursery manager is also lovely. Everybody is always smiling. I know that my child is being well looked after, and I love that they update the app regularly throughout the day.
Never had any issues, staff are very approachable, have a very good understanding of each child's individual needs and interests. Personally, I wouldn't send my child anywhere else!
Both my children have attended this nursery (since Clockwork) and I couldn't recommend it enough. We feel they're part of our family now, the staff are so caring, and both my children have progressed leaps and bounds while attending here. Will be a sad day when our youngest leaves, no better nursery around Tameside!
I would highly recommend this setting!
There when I need them the most very satisfied and also my children have come on leaps and bounds.
They have made friends with staff and gained close bonds. Within the family of kids planet.
Staff and children.
My daughter has been attending the nursery since she was 10 months old all the way through to now at 11 years old. The holiday club has always been brilliant. The staff are amazing and I seriously couldn't thank them enough for all of their wonderful support. I love the home-from-home. Skills my daughter has picked up supporting me in getting her an EHCP. The nursery has always been a warm and friendly welcoming environment. My daughter has met some amazing friends especially one who has been friends since the very start of meeting at nursery. Thank you so much. Keep doing what you're doing.
My child has loved coming in every day and is sad to leave for school!
Big thanks to all the staff for all their help and support!
He will miss you all.
Kids Planet is an outstanding nursery and they look after my children like they are their own. I would recommend this nursery to anyone. The management team are always welcoming when they see you too.
My son has had an excellent experience at this nursery from 7 months to now 4 years old, he thrives and loves coming to the nursery. Staff are brilliant with my son! He has made some lovely bonds with staff and children.
This is the best nursery in the Tameside area. The staff are fantastic and treat the children like their own, the bond they have with the children is amazing. I can go to work knowing my child is safe and all of their needs are met. They offer great advice on parenting and children's development. My child has come on leaps and bounds due to this nursery. I can't thank you all enough.
Shout out to the staff who are in pre-school 1, my little boy loves them both so much and so do I. We're going to miss them so much.
Thank you for treating my son like your own, I can't tell you how easy you made my experience of leaving my pride and joy in the care of someone else and he's come on so much since starting in January.
Such a lovely nursery. All staff members are very friendly and so lovely. My children absolutely love coming here and are constantly doing new activities which aid their learning. The rooms are very equipped with lots of fun things for all the children. I recommend this nursery for any child in the area.
She enjoys it every day and loves coming in.
My son has attended the nursery from being 12 months old and he absolutely loves it. The staff in each and every room have been friendly, approachable and knowledgeable about the curriculum. They have also taken amazing care of my son. Thanks for everything!
It is always clean, tidy and plenty of inside and outside activities to do for the children.
I would recommend Kids Planet to anyone who looking for a nursery for their child.
Our son loved his time here and we were always safe in the knowledge, that he was very well looked after by attentive but personable staff.
He will miss his time here, as will we.
Thanks for everything.
We have loved the nursery since day one! Staff are wonderful and the kids have progressed so much thanks to all their help! There is a lovely, family-like environment and the staff really take time to get to know the parents too.
