My son loves coming to the nursery, all the girls are fantastic with him the nursery has gone above and beyond in helping with his weaning. My son will stay with Kids Planet until he is ready for school.

I can't recommend the nursery enough. Since my son started in January his confidence has grown and the staff have really helped with his development before school. Nothing is too much trouble and the staff are super friendly. Lovely daily feedback and the addition of parentzone with information and
photos from his week is just what we as parents want to see. It makes it easier going to work knowing I'm leaving him somewhere he loves and with a team of people who care about him.

My daughter has been at Kids Planet Middlewich since being ten months old and she is now in preschool, ready to leave in August ready for school. She has loved every room she has been in and every member of staff have been brilliant with her and her development. I want to give a special thanks to one
particular member of staff; she has been in a number of the rooms with my daughter and my daughter loves her so much, she is kind and thoughtful and very caring towards all the children. My daughter is very sad to be leaving her group this year. My son is starting in the baby room in November and I am confident he will love it just as much.

My Son will soon be leaving his preschool room and has been so well prepared and supported in his transition to school by the staff at Kids Planet.
He has been at this placement for 2 years and has truly loved being a part of his room class. He's made close friends and developed in leaps and bounds
since attending.
I can always drop him off knowing he is thoroughly cared for emotionally, physically and educationally.
The staff are all wonderful, well respected by myself and truly loved by my son. They offer a great variety of activities to fill their days and give reassuring handovers at the end of the day. They are also always open to offering further support where they can.
I can honestly say that I'd give my full positive recommendation to any parent sharing interest and considering Kids Planet day nurseries.
I know both my son and I will be sad as the end of his time here comes to a draw.
The staff are all a huge credit to the company.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little girl started in August 2022 at just 6 months old. The staff in the baby room are simply amazing.
I suffered with post-natal depression and was extremely anxious about leaving my little girl, the ladies in the baby room and the manager instantly put my mind at ease. They answered all my questions
and went above and beyond to make sure both my daughter and I settled into our new routine.
The activities and updates I get are brilliant to see and my daughter really is thriving there.
She eats a wide variety of foods and they learned very quickly what activities she did and didn't like.
I cannot recommend highly enough and will continue to recommend to any friends and family.

My daughter has settled in really well at the nursery. Her initial settling in days helped me when I was feeling anxious about leaving her. The staff were really helpful in answering all my questions. My daughter smiles when she is greeted by the nursery staff; she clearly enjoys going! I’m delighted
with the variety of activities my daughter gets to do and love that there’s lots of messy play!

My kids love this nursery. They have joined in September 2021. There is not a day they would not want to go there. Staff are very friendly and helpful. We love how we get updates via app, especially observations, so we know exactly what kids are up to.
Highly recommended!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter, 4 in a few weeks, and son, 20 months, both attend Kids Planet. On initially starting our daughter there, I cannot praise them highly enough in the baby room. Staff are approachable, friendly and go out of their way to help. This is something that continues throughout all of the nursery.
It has a lovely family feel and I feel that all staff in the rooms really know my children well and have excellent relationships with them. My daughter, every day she isn't in, just wants to role play nurseries at home, acting out being one of the staff there. They are also pretty reasonable and flexible with changing days too - as much as they possibly can be. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Honestly cannot fault this nursery! My eldest started at 10 months old and my littlest at 8 months old and it’s safe to say that every single day they go in with the biggest smiles and I know they’re going to have the best day!
As a parent picking the right nursery is always a difficult decision but
from the second we walked into Kids Planet Middlewich we knew we had to send our little ones there! Nothing is ever too much to ask and their communications with you as a parent are exceptional. I honestly cannot fault the team here and I am so so grateful for everything you have done for our little family!

My little boy, who has autism, has attended Kids Planet since April 2021.
The manager, SENCO and all the room staff are all amazing. They go out of their way to not only make sure your child is happy when they go to nursery but that as parents you are happy and well-communicated with.
My little
boy has come on leaps and bounds in the pre-school room and you can tell the staff are as happy about his progress as I am as his mum.
The facilities are brilliant and the children enjoy outside time every day.
I can’t recommend this nursery enough.

A fantastic nursery who really care about developing my children’s educational and emotional needs. A lovely team and a really nice setting. My children are in the preschool and baby rooms. The baby room has a separate room for them to sleep in which is also a sensory room. The preschool room has a
great outdoor space.

2 of my 3 children go to Kids Planet and they both absolutely love it. Nothing is ever too much and always very helpful. I cannot rate them enough. I was very nervous due to lockdown and the boys not used to being away from me, all the staff were extremely understanding and helped my anxiety as well
as the boys.

Our daughter has come on lots since starting Kids Planet. She quite often says ‘yes’ when we ask if she wants to go to nursery.
We enjoy the updates, and particularly the assessments, which keep us informed of development.
Can’t wait to see how she develops further, with the staff's help.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending since September 2021 and was 2 years 9 months. The staff have been amazing with him with helping him come out of his shell. He was shy and had a slight speech delay. He is now a very chatty little boy. Each morning I drop him off he can't wait to get through the gates and start
his day. He also can't wait to tell me all about his day when I collect.
The app is fabulous. It explains everything from nappy changing times and what they did to how much lunch they ate.
I was very anxious about sending my son to nursery as he has multiple allergies. Their red plate way of doing things is great. They also have someone sat with him to make sure he doesn't come into contact with any food he shouldn't. Makes me feel at ease knowing he is in good hands.
Would 100% recommend them.

I could not recommend Kids Planet enough, the team in baby room have been so incredible with my little boy! He has come on so much and has started walking, he’s so sociable and smiles and laughs as soon as he sees the building! He initially was upset leaving me at the door but has now started walking
in himself and waving me off - I am naturally an anxious person but the staff have honestly made me feel so relaxed about leaving him in baby room - I couldn’t imagine him being anywhere else!
They are always so quick to update us via the app with anything through the day, and seeing the photos make mine and my husband's day. Our son has struggled to eat for himself but since being in baby room he is becoming so much more independent and confident at trying foods himself.
Nothing ever seems too much trouble for them, and they always go above and beyond. We definitely appreciate everything they do!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.841)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.841) out of 10 for Kids Planet Middlewich is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 37 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 4.930 for Kids Planet Middlewich is calculated as follows: ( (410 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 441 Ratings = 4.93
  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 4.911 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Middlewich is based on 37 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 203 number of registered child places is 40.6. 37 Positive Reviews ÷ 40.6 = 0.911
  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.

Hi, I am Becky.
I am a dedicated and experienced childcare practitioner with 16 years of continuous service, formerly known as Rainbow Day Nursery, now Kid’s Planet. Since beginning my career straight from school, I have achieved both Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications in childcare and developed extensive experience in supporting children’s learning, development, and wellbeing.


Alongside my professional journey, I am also a proud mum to my 6-year-old son, Lennon. Becoming a parent has given me valuable insight and taught me so much about children’s needs, growth, and individuality—further strengthening my commitment to providing the best possible care and support for every child. I am passionate about creating a nurturing and positive environment, building strong partnerships with families, and working collaboratively with colleagues to ensure the highest standards of care.
