We couldn't be happier with the care our daughter receives in the Toddler Room. The staff are so caring, friendly and attentive, and it's clear how much they genuinely care about the children. Our daughter is always happy to go in and comes home full of stories about her day. We've seen her confidence grow so much since being in the Toddler Room. We feel completely reassured knowing she's in such lovely hands.

It is so reassuring knowing that my children are happy, safe and genuinely enjoy going in. They absolutely love it and get so excited to go, which says everything! The staff are fantastic with them, and you can really see how much care and effort goes into making sure every child feels settled, supported and included.
The communication with parents is also brilliant, and we always feel kept up to date with what the children have been doing and learning. It really feels like the staff know our children individually and genuinely care about them.
Finding somewhere you can leave your children and feel completely comfortable and confident in their care is priceless, and this nursery has given us exactly that.
A huge thank you to the whole team for everything you do. You are all amazing, and we are so grate

My daughter has been attending the nursery since she was 8/9 months old and we could not have asked for a better setting for her. As a very apprehensive first time mum, this nursery supported my daughter from the very start. The resources and environment are fantastic but what really sets the setting apart from the rest is the loving, caring and dedicated staff team who are undoubtedly the best thing about this nursery. I feel so lucky that my daughter has had the opportunity to grow, develop and have amazing experiences with such a fantastic group of practitioners. They have supported my daughter (and me!) from being incredibly emotional and struggling with separation, to my daughter now being a confident and happy child who absolutely loves nursery! She talks about the staff as if they are her best friends. We will always be so grateful to every person who has worked with her and shown her the love and care that parents aspire for when looking for a nursery.
Thank you Sarah for this lovely review!! It has been a pleasure looking after Tilds and seeing her grow into the little confident character she is. She is going to thrive at school in September! Make sure to email us photo's when she starts x

I would definitely recommend Katie's Kinder Care, I have seen such great development with my daughter. Sometimes we are so surprised at home how much she has learnt at the nursery, such as numbers, colours,objects and her speech. The staff at the nursery are like family, they have taught her from being a little toddler learning to sing let it go (frozen) to becoming an independent child with continuously new inspirations. As working parents, staff at the nursery have played a major role in our child's development. We are very grateful to the staff for being part of our child's journey.

Josie has worked in childcare for over 17 years. She has worked my way up from Nursery Practitioner to Room Leader and then became a Nursery Manager.
Josie started in childcare as a work-placed apprenticeship; she then completed her Level 3 in Childcare & Education. Josie progressed onto a Team Leader and Level 3 Management qualification and became a Nursery Manager at my previous employment in 2012. Then, after moving to Katie’s Kinder Care in 2013, progressed to Nursery Manager in 2020.

Ashton started at what was Katie's Kinder Care, now Kids Planet Cleckheaton, as a student while at Dewsbury College. This then led to a job opportunity as a Level 3 Practitioner in the Baby Room in 2015. From then on, she has worked her way up and become room leader in all rooms, continued her professional development and graduated with a BA Honours in Early Years.
Ashton was then successful in gaining the role of Manager and the Special Educational Needs Coordinator in 2022 alongside Josie. She is a Level 3 qualified SENCo and has completed an Elklan Level 3 training in speech and language for 0-3 years.
I love seeing children grow into little characters and being a part of the reason that they have the best start in life. Childcare has been something I have always wanted to do, even from being small and making my brothers play teachers.I also have my own little boy who also attends the Baby Room, so I am able to see things from every point of view!
I love that even though we are part of a large chain and we have similar elements to other Kids Planet nurseries, our nursery has a ‘home from home’ personal feel, and our staff and I take so much pride in being a part of this change, ensuring our children have the most suitable and exciting learning environment. I also know how important parents are to our children’s development and ensure they are involved in as much of their child’s nursery journey as possible.
