Review from Natalia S (Mother of Child) published on 13 December 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
A truly wonderful nursery. The staff are so welcoming to both children and parents, and you can really tell they care for all the children. My daughter has been at Little Angels for almost a year now, and she has truly blossomed during her time at the nursery. I can see her skills and confidence develop over time. She loves delicious homemade meals and engaging in different sensory plays. The staff always has plenty of new activities to educate and engage the children. I love that at the end of each day, they always take the time to go through my daughter's day with me.

We couldn’t ask for a better nursery, and we were so pleased we found Little Angels.

Overall Experience

From the second we walk up to the door, my boy is smiling away at the buzzer waiting to be let in. The staff are super friendly and welcoming which really makes a difference. The many different rooms all cater for each child’s individual needs, and there’s always new activities going on which is exciting! I am wowed every day by the different meals and choices my boy has on a weekly basis. The outdoor area has a variety of play equipment and the children are always well supervised, and I always see the staff playing alongside them too which is lovely. The daily communication is great, staff are very good at relaying how your child’s day has been, including every detail you could want and need as a parent. The management are lovely, they really took the time to show us around the nursery before we started, and I know I could go to them if I ever needed to. Overall an exceptional nursery and I feel lucky to have my boy here with amazing staff!

Overall Experience
My almost 4-year-old daughter has been with Little Angels since she was a baby and they have been amazing throughout.
The staff are experienced, kind and supportive and really care about the kids, creating real bonds that make all the difference.
Our daughter has had a key worker in each room she has been in and they have been pivotal in their support through learning to walk, talk, potty training etc.
Communication is excellent from key workers every day as well as regular updates via email on what's happening each month.

Always going the extra mile to make playtime fun and educational. Would happily recommend them if you are looking for a nursery in the area.

Review from Nikki B (Mother of Child) published on 13 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little boy started at Little Angels in September in the Baby room. The staff were fantastic at helping him to settle in and reassuring me, they really listened to me about his routine and my requests for him.
The room is always clean and set up with different toys/equipment for the babies to explore.
I really like the book they fill in during the day all about his day and they still give feedback at the end of the day when collecting.
I really like my little boy to spend time outside, they have a nice secure outside area that they make the most of.
My little boy has a great key worker who he has built a lovely bond with and all the other staff in the baby room, in the under 2's room, office staff and others we have seen around the nursery are all friendly and helpful.

I am very happy with Little Angels.

Overall Experience

What a wonderful nursery Little Angels is. Both my daughters have been going for 6 years between them and they’ve both been given a great start in life both emotionally and educationally. The staff is very supportive of the children and gives you an insight into their days at the end of each day which helps understand how your child is developing. Would recommend Little Angels in a heartbeat.

We cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. We recently moved our son here after having safeguarding issues at a nursery closer to home. All of the staff at Little Angels have been brilliant at helping our son settle in. He loves going to nursery and we have seen a real change in him since he started attending. We are looking forward to him attending for another year until he starts school.

I cannot fault the wonderful staff at this nursery.
My daughter has developed so much since attending and is always ready to run in when we arrive.

The staff have been wonderful in finding ways to support my daughter as we wait for an autism assessment. She has had assessments and they have specifically designed ways in which to help her needs. I really cannot thank them all enough for all they have done so far!

Overall Experience

I can’t recommend Little Angels Day Nursery highly enough. My son has been at this placement since he was 1 year old and is soon to be going to school. He has enjoyed every minute at nursery and will miss it and the staff dearly. He has made so many friends and his confidence has grown and grown. My son enjoys telling me about all the fun things he has done and the lovely meals he has eaten. The staff are welcoming, friendly and helpful. There is always lots going on and the children enjoy both indoor and outdoor play.

Absolutely amazing! I have been using Little Angels Day Nursery and Out of School Club for almost two years now for my and 8 year old boys. All of the staff are absolutely wonderful, friendly and kind. My two little boys are always coming home telling me what they’ve been up to and how much fun they’ve had and they always look forward to going every day! Every single staff member at Little Angels is wonderful and I can’t thank them enough for everything they do! My little ones and me are extremely happy here

Review from Carl E (Father of Child) published on 17 December 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I cannot speak highly enough of Little Angels; the staff and facilities are brilliant, and clearly the best we came across in Huddersfield.
The staff are attentive, and clearly build personal relationships with the children, whilst the facilities stimulate the children and aids in development.
My daughter has been attending for some months now, and her talking and social skills have come on leaps and bounds; something that we were previously worried about being impacted due to covid, but they really have brought my daughter out of her shell.

All I can say is that from my experience and from talking with other parents we know with children at Little Angels, if you can get your child/children in at Little Angels then don’t hesitate. You won’t regret it, and your little ones will thank you for it!

Overall Experience

This nursery is absolutely wonderful. I wouldn’t send my children anywhere else! My daughter has never lacked for anything and has always bonded with all the workers. She has food allergies and it’s never been an issue at all as they always make sure she has everything she needs or could want to ensure she’s included. Hand overs are always so informative and encouraging. Any time I’ve had a query it’s been answered or dealt with asap. Well done to the Manager you have a wonderful team!

Overall Experience

My little girl has been going to Little Angels Day Nursery since 11 months old, since starting there she has developed in so many ways. All the staff are friendly and very good at what they do! The Manager is always around and very approachable if you have any issues or concerns. My daughter has a dairy intolerance and the nursery have adapted to her needs when it comes to her meals. The key person who works in the Baby room is so welcoming and my little girl gets so excited to see her every morning. Love this nursery and would highly recommend it.

My daughter has been attending Little Angels since April this year. She enjoys it so much and its wonderful to hear what fun and educational activities shes been doing each day. The staff are excellent, my daughter adores the team, especially her key worker and its so lovely seeing her face light up when she spots her through the door.

I would recommend Little Angels to anyone.

Review from Catherine F (Mother of Child) published on 27 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My husband and I are very satisfied with the care provided to our daughter (age 3) whilst at Little Angels. Our eldest daughter came here too and we didn’t think twice about using the same nursery again. The staff provide good updates on her day (play, friendships, meals) and are responsive to any requests we have. I can ring any time to check she’s ok (incase off colour or if an issue comes up). The staff and manager go above and beyond to ensure she is happy, safe and progressing against developmental milestones. It really is the little things that make a difference, for example, the staff helped make a card when it was my husbands 40th birthday as a surprise which our daughter was so proud to give him. This week she has recited the Gingerbread Man story (it’s her favourite) and so without asking the staff invited her and a few friends into the kitchen to make gingerbread men! She has fun whilst there and is progressing really well. I am happy with the Covid secures in place.

Review from Marie C (Mother of Child) published on 13 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Summer out of school club, a fabulous place that was recommended to me. Trying to find a holiday club to suit both my boys with a 5 year age difference. I felt so at ease with all my questions put towards the manager, within no time the boys were in and settled. I was at work worrying about their long day but they came home with smiles telling me about the cinema, eating popcorn and then t-shirt painting in the afternoon and their trips to castle hill and the parks.
They look forward to going and having to try new things and new adventures.

I now don't have to worry about the holidays. To the manager and a great team a big thank you.

Grace McLean Job Title: Nursery Manager
Grace McLean

I am the nursery manager here at Kids Planet Longley. My childcare journey began 7 years ago when I first started as an apprentice, working up to management. I am passionate about creating a caring, nurturing and stimulating environment where every child feels safe, happy and confident to be themselves. I believe children learn best when they feel valued, supported and encouraged, and I strive to ensure each child receives the care and attention they deserve. I also understand how important it is for parents to feel reassured and confident when leaving their children in our care. Building strong, trusting relationships with families is something I value, and I aim to create a welcoming and supportive environment for both children and parents.
