Welcome to Kids Planet Fulwood! The nursery operates from a stunning Victorian building with bright spacious rooms which are bursting with children’s next sense of adventure. The enchanted garden, brand new in October 2019, is a great place for children to explore and build friendships. They have an exceptionally large outside space all around the building and this really sets them apart from the local area. They are most proud of the staff team who are genuine, caring and most of all great fun. The teaching team are trained to the highest level and it is their support and respect for each other which makes Fulwood such a gorgeous nursery to be a part of.

Poppy & Jacks has been a great place to send our daughter, she loves every day she’s at pre-school. Every day is different and full of adventure and learning. Thank you Poppy & Jacks for all the support, care and love our little lady has had since starting as a baby all the way to pre-school. I know
she will remember this as she starts big school and beyond Sept 2021.

The staff have been great especially during the whole lockdown and COVID, we couldn't have asked for more. My daughter loves the nursery and she’s always loving the activities and the learning which she gets from the environment/staff here. Thank you, Poppy & Jacks for being so amazing.

My son has been at Poppy & Jacks since he was 1. They have truly helped to raise him to be the kind, confident and quirky little boy that he is. He has been so well prepared for school. I can not recommend this nursery highly enough.

My son attends the nursery and couldn't recommend enough. Firstly the staff are all friendly and approachable and clearly put a lot of effort in creating a fun, engaging and safe place for the children. The nursery grounds are fab and give the children lots to keep them busy in both the inside and outdoor
areas. The food served there always sounds wonderful and much effort is put in to make a variety of meals. Overall a fantastic nursery.

Poppy & Jacks Fulwood is nothing short of amazing! The staff are so committed to making sure the children are happy and have lots of fun, their level of care shines through.
We relocated and moved to Poppy & Jacks from another nursery. I used to think the other nursery was great until Poppy & Jacks
showed us how it should be done! They were all so welcoming and really helped my son settle in, taking him under their wing. A year on, he is always happy to hear it’s a nursery day in the morning and is full of stories when he comes home.
The team somehow manage to tick all the boxes and more, and still have loads of energy to make it super fun! I’d recommend them to anyone!

I can’t recommend Poppy & Jacks highly enough! The staff are fantastic as is the amazing range of sensory activities they do with my daughter. She gets so excited to see the ladies, who are so welcoming to both my daughter and I, in the morning which is lovely. Being constantly kept updated through
the app on what my daughter is doing throughout the day is great and very reassuring when I’m at work. She comes home absolutely exhausted which shows how much they stimulate her and her learning. I couldn’t be happier with our decision to choose Poppy & Jacks.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Firstly I would highly recommend this nursery to everyone. Having a daughter with special needs meant finding the right nursery was crucial, I visited a few local nurseries to find the right one from shiny new all singing and dancing nurseries to the small setting nursery. When I visited Poppy & Jacks,
everyone was so warm and welcoming, and it was a lovely relaxed setting. They seemed to have more staff per child, and everyone was busy playing and entertaining the children in the open-plan rooms and outdoors. They had everything the big new nurseries had, but I found that because this was a smaller setting, that they were more involved with the children. Very good and understanding of her needs. They are great and focused on all the children, and teach them the key skills and more, and have lots and lots of fun. All the staff are amazing, and the food is unbeatable. They go the extra mile with everything, especially getting involved with her educational specialists. Very highly recommended.

Both our daughters attend Poppy & Jacks Nursery Fulwood and we can’t rate it highly enough! The facilities and activity schedules are fantastic, but what really sets this nursery apart is their team. We can’t praise the girls enough for their support with our daughter's development both in and out of
nursery. If you are looking for a truly caring and nurturing environment for your child to flourish in, then look no further than Poppy & Jacks Nursery Fulwood.

My son absolutely loves Poppy and Jack's Nursery after starting at 9 months old last year. We looked around half a dozen nurseries in the area and we were struck straight away by the friendly and enthusiastic staff.


The staff are amazing, so kind and nurturing yet also encourage the children's develop

at their speed. Everybody smiles and says hello to my son and us, from the chef to the Pre-School staff. My son loves to go and looks forward to seeing the staff in the baby room. He's made some lovely friends.


I highly recommend Poppy and Jack's Nursery, I don't think I could have found a better nursery for my son.

Poppy & Jacks Fulwood is fantastic. The staff are amazing. Open, friendly and very easy to communicate with. My daughter is so happy at the nursery and is developing at a rate of knots. The facility itself is warm and even as a grown up I want to explore it so I can only imagine how the children feel.
Wonderful nursery, brilliant staff, excellent communication.

I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending the nursery to other parents. Both of my children are very happy there, they are well looked after and have come on leaps and bounds since being there.


The nursery have been exceptional in the recent support the gave to my family following my daughter’s surgery.

Their support and understanding meant that my husband and I could continue with our normal lives as much as possible, I cannot thank them enough for this.

My daughter has just started here and my son has been here for two years. I can't rate this nursery highly enough, my children adore the staff and have so much fun.
I believe my son has hugely benefited from attending this nursery, he always has access to a wide range of activities, and the outdoor
space is fantastic. He is gaining independence with the help of the staff who are very supportive.
My daughter has only attended for a week so far but has settled in beautifully already. I would highly recommend Poppy & Jacks.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.786)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.786) out of 10 for Kids Planet Fulwood 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.814 for Kids Planet Fulwood is calculated as follows: ( (151 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 177 Ratings = 4.814
  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 4.972 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Fulwood is based on 14 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 72 number of registered child places is 14.4. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.972
  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.
