My First child started at kids planet in 2023 and it was the best decision I made. My second child then joined April 2025.
This nursery is a little home and family for the children while us mums & dads work. I drop mine off there safe in the knowledge they are looked after, interacted with and brought
on by learn through play and a structured routine. The staff are great, friendly, thoughtful, nurturing, attentive, encouraging, praising and the time & effort they put in with the children shows when my kids come home telling me all sorts of stories from book and telling me what they've been doing that day.
My daughter has a couple of health conditions and requires medication administering and I fully trust the staff and have a massive appreciation for all they do. Thanks kids planet Dukinfield x

My child attended tots room and has currently moved up to toddler room within the nursery. Both rooms have been brilliant with my daughter and I cannot fault them. she enjoying going to nursery everyday and we have no problems. The new app is efficient and works well with contacting staff members within
the room. You get regular updates on what they have eaten and photos throughout the week.

My son is extremely well looked after in a calm and happy atmosphere. Communication between the nursery and parents is exceptional, and provide detailed updates of my sons development. All staff members are extremely friendly and provide a welcoming environment. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and
the staff are always happy to chat about anything raised. I would highly recommend Kids Planet, Dukinfield. My son has come on leaps and bounds in the nursery, and that's all thanks to the brilliant staff!

I cannot express how grateful to have found kids planet Dukinfield. I would recommend this nursery to anyone and everyone I possible could. My eldest had a bad experience at a childminders and became a shell of herself, we joined in the toddler room of Kids Planet and every single one of the staff was
so patient and kind and caring towards her, she's absolutely smashed it and has now gone on to School, my youngest started in the Tots room at Kids Planet and is now in Pre School she absolutely loves it. I trust my children are in safe hands when in the care at Kids Planer. Keep doing what your doing guys because you're all amazing and I appreciate you all SO much!!!

He has only had 3 full days in nursery, but he has settled in the baby room really well, and that is testament to the staff. Keep up the great work, i am looking forward to him progressing his skills in the future.

My daughter has just started nursery here and the staff have been really lovely so far. From the show around to 2 weeks in they've been lovely and very helpful. Reassuring us that she's having a good day with pictures on the app. Really efficient app makes it easy to see what she's been up to, been
eating and how she's toileting. So far it's been a really positive experience. My daughter loves the garden and using the messy play.
The food sounds to be really delicious and nutritious with plenty of variety each week

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Finding the right nursery for my two children was a big decision and choosing Kids Planet has been the best one I could have made. From the very beginning, the staff have been incredibly supportive, not just of my children but of me as well. They understood our situation, made the settling-in process
smooth and reassured me every step of the way.


Both of my boys are thriving here. The team take time to get to know them as individuals, encouraging their unique interests and celebrating every achievement. They communicate with me regularly, which helps me feel completely involved in their development.


What I appreciate most is how caring and approachable everyone is. It truly feels like a partnership. I know my children are safe, happy, and supported every single day. Kids Planet has given us so much peace of mind and has been such a positive part of our family's journey.

My son has just started this nursery and the baby room is fantastic! When looking at nurseries we viewed 11 and this was by far the best for our little boy. Julie is fantastic and my little boy has taken to her straight away! Both Julie & Mel are so friendly and made me feel instantly at ease. They
even made a little bag up for the parents to welcome us to the baby room, a lovely personal touch! Would highly recommend.

My little girl started in January 2025 and has really settled in the nursery and loves going in in the morning as well as all her teachers and has a really good relationship with her keywoker.
Although she is only in babies she had started to make some good bounds with her friends in the room.

Would highly recommend Kids Planet Nursery in Dukinfield. My children attend both the baby room and toddler room and are both cared for impeccably. Meals are home-cooked and are always well-balanced and healthy, activities are fun and engaging and the overall atmosphere of the nursery is lovely.
The
support for both of my children and myself has been excellent and I feel so comfortable knowing they are in a safe, caring environment.
Staff cannot do enough for my children and they have both settled in so well.

My son recently started at Kids Planet Dukinfield and I am so happy with how easily he has settled in. The staff are wonderful and very attentive to each child. I am always greeted by the staff and told about his day. The app is also great to keep up with his food and milk intake throughout his time

The nursery offers a warm and welcoming environment for my child.
A variety of carefully planned activities are provided to meet their developmental needs, as well as follow their interests. The nursery also offers a range of themed days to help the children build great knowledge and understanding
of the world.
As parents, we are kept up to date with meals, sleep, activities, and nappies via the use of the app. Staff also often add to this with a verbal update at the end of the day.
There are regular opportunities throughout the year to receive in-depth updates about our child's development and next steps as well as discuss any concerns we may have at parent's evening.
The staff are all wonderful and it is clear to see they have genuine care and a passion for their roles and the children.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.810)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.810) out of 10 for Kids Planet Dukinfield is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.810 for Kids Planet Dukinfield is calculated as follows: ( (287 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 348 Ratings = 4.81
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Dukinfield is based on 29 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 29 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
