I can't express enough my gratitude for the preschool and all the staff, having gone to a different nursery previously, the difference is huge. Here I have confidence and peace of mind that my daughter will be comforted when she is upset, will have fun and will learn. She's formed strong bonds with the supervisor and other staff and I can't thank them enough.
My son has absolutely enjoyed his time from 2023/2024. I can't express enough how amazing the staff are and management. The environment of the nursery is lovely and so are the staff. I highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a safe nursery for their children. Overall excellent.
Could never fault the nursery. best my child has ever attended. They have always been supportive, and caring and you can tell this is the job they love. Always putting the children and their well being first. Absolute credit and I am sad to see my daughter leave as she is my last.
Our experience of Kids Planet Widnes has been nothing but amazing, the care, consideration, time and energy given to my son has been nothing but brilliant. The room leader especially goes above and beyond to ensure every child feels valued and creates individual binds with them all. The staff are also considerate and caring towards family, show an interest in the whole family and offer time to talk things through and find solutions together. I can't recommend Kids Planet enough.
Staff are always so welcoming and help with development.
Really good nursery my little boy has loved and enjoyed every minute being here, all staff members are lovely and welcoming would definitely recommend.
Kids Planet has been amazing for my child. It helped him grow and come on so much. Finding his personality. All members of staff have been lovely and my child does nothing but sing everyone's praises.
I would like to thank the key staff in the baby room for making it easier to go back to work and keeping me up to date on the app each day.
I would especially like to give credit to one staff member in particular who was amazing stepping up when another staff member was on leave and who always listened in handover and pick up making sure my child is well looked after.
All the staff work hard and it is clear that they love working with the children and watching them grow.
My daughter has attended Kids Planet Widnes since December 2023. She has additional needs and needs a lot more support and assistance daily. The staff are amazing with her. Very caring, considerate and supportive to myself and my daughter. The staff understand her needs and accommodate them great. Since starting, I can see a huge improvement and continues to thrive. I cannot fault this service. I feel relaxed leaving her there and know she is getting the best care and support. Between the management, the SENCO and the staff in her room, they are an amazing team.
Staff are amazing, go out of their way to help, very polite and cheerful. Children have lots of activities and lots of learning.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review; we really appreciate it.
Such a wonderful nursery. They take their time to bond with our son and help him over the next milestones. From baby to pre-school, he has blossomed because of Kids Planet. Keep up the good work, guys.
Our little boy has been going to Kids Planet since Babies room. It was such a hard decision for us choosing a nursery as he started at a Manchester nursery during COVID whilst we were waiting for our house move to Widnes to complete. We loved the Manchester nursery so the next had to tick the same boxes. Kids Planet have done that in every way, x1000. We have felt sad every time he's moved up a class because we have loved his key workers and all the staff in every room. But we get the same love and attention from all the staff in every room. We love how much focus and care they seem to have on every individual and also how happy they have made our boy for the last three years. There is nothing we would rate below five stars and we will be heartbroken when it comes to leaving for school not to have the same routine of walking into such a happy, safe environment every morning. The staff all do such an incredible job - thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your review, we will make sure that we pass your comments to the nursery team as it will make their day to read them. We are so pleased that we exceeded all your expectations with the nursery move you had to make, it's really important to us that all...
I have had four children all go to the nursery for over 15 years. The standard of the nursery is second to none. I am happy with all aspects of the nursery such as cleanliness and care. The app is excellent to receive updates about my child’s day and the staff are wonderful. The nursery continues to grow and thrive, especially under the new leadership.
So today we said a sad goodbye to our Kids Planet family, where our son has spent virtually the entire first four years of his life. What started as just one day a week eventually turned into him going for the whole week until he turned 1. I can only speak in the highest regard of the guys who look after the kids at this place. Our son has loved every minute of his journey and he is genuinely gutted about leaving for big school, albeit really excited for the next chapter in his life. We want to thank each and every one of you who has looked after him as you all have honestly made such an impact in your own way. He has never had a bad word to say.
I have loved mine and my little boy's nursery experience since being in tots right through to preschool. From the staff to his friends. I and him will miss everyone at Kids Planet Widnes and would like to thank all the staff for everything you have done for him since going into tots.
I have nothing but positive things to say about Kids Planet and every last member of staff. Every last single time I have dropped my son off and picked him up I have seen how lovely, genuine, caring and just over all perfect and my son absolutely loves it. So, thank you to all the staff for being the perfect people for my son. Thank you.
Absolutely amazing. They have helped him so much. Thank you.
Kids Planet is the best nursery, my son has loved all his years being here and the staff have been amazing. Thank you for everything, he will miss you all.
I have nothing but good things to say, preschool has been a massive help with my son. The staff have been fab, he's very sad to leave.
Kids Planet is a wonderful nursery. My son has thoroughly enjoyed his time here, making friends and learning so much. The staff are amazing and friendly. We are always welcomed with a smile and I am kept updated about my son's day. There are lots of interesting learning activities and experiences for the children and lots of lovely meals to try. I would highly recommend Kids Planet.

Originally qualifying as a Primary School teacher, I spent several years in Primary Schools before transitioning into the Early Years sector. Over time, I have taken on a variety of roles within Early Years settings, gaining valuable experience and deepening my understanding of early childhood development. I took over as Nursery Manager at Kids Planet Widnes in March 2023. I hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), a Master’s degree in Disability Studies, and a National Professional Qualification in Early Years Leadership (NPQEYL). In September, I will begin studying toward a Doctorate in Education (EdD), further deepening my expertise and commitment to driving excellence within Early Years.
