Kids Planet Austhorpe

My daughter loves attending nursery here. The staff are always friendly, warm and caring and have really taken their time to get to know her and her interests. She has developed in confidence since starting at nursery and has benefited from socialising with children her own age. There are always interesting activities set out in the room, and the themes are ones that she enjoys and talks about at home. The food menu is varied and encourages her to be more adventurous with the things she tries.

Great staff, My daughter has come along in leaps and bounds since going to this nursery. She loves the staff, and I know she is safe, fed and happy with them. Very flexible with my shifts and understanding management.

I have two children at Sunbeams and cannot fault it. Both of them enjoy being there, and I feel like all of the staff go out of their way to get to know them and what they like/do not like. It is also very easy to contact them, calls are always answered and emails have always been responded to promptly.

My son loves going to nursery. All staff are very pleasant and easy to speak to. My son is developing amazing with their help! The rooms and outside play areas are always tidy, and the food is lovely!

We can't thank the team enough for everything.

Thank you to all the lovely staff.

All the staff at your Austhorpe Nursery are absolutely amazing, it is definitely like all the staff are one big family, and I truly am grateful. They really are the best. I am a single mum who works full time, but I know that my son is well looked after, and he looks forward to going, which is such a relief for me. The manager and all the staff are just brilliant. One lady is just brilliant with him; she has really taken the time to get to know him and listens to things that we are doing at home, so they can be followed in the nursery. She supports me so much, which is so reassuring, and I am so grateful for. She is truly a credit to you!

Most importantly, my daughter is happy, engaged and kept safe.

Tentative staff, clearly invested in your child. Made me feel at ease immediately. The app gives you all the information you need to feel reassured. My child has a great bond with her keyworker, and that shows the effort put in by the staff.

Sunbeams is a great nursery due to the staff being kind, caring and supportive. I have sent two children there, and both have loved it. Well done to the staff for fostering such a terrific environment for children's learning and development.

An excellent nursery with the most lovely staff. My little girl never wants to come home after a day here. She is always doing different activities and eating great food. I couldn’t be happier with my experience of Sunbeams!

My children have had the opportunity to make new friends; many of whom my older child then went to school with. It has been lovely for them to form these bonds before school.

He will be sad to say bye come summer.

My son attended Sunbeams for nearly 3-years, and his confidence has grown so much thanks to all the staff. He comes home every day telling us of all the different activities he has done. It took my son a while to settle into each of the rooms, and the staff settled him and were really patient with him. I can't thank them enough. It's such a friendly nursery

Staff are absolutely fantastic with my little girl; she loves everything about the nursery. She was very shy when starting last year, and we have seen a massive difference in her confidence. I would highly recommend this nursery to everyone.

He is now 4, and in his final months at Sunbeams. His development, over the years, has been amazing. He's a very social, happy and confident boy, and always talks about his carers at home. The whole team, throughout the setting, have been absolutely fantastic, engaging and enthusiastic from his very first day, and I know I absolutely made the right choice for him. I would highly recommend Sunbeams to any parent.

My son joined Sunbeams last year at just over 2-years-old. He settled in pretty much straight away; he wasn't really talking, and this has greatly improved since he started. He enjoys his days and very enthusiastic when he's been; he knows his carers and feels comfortable with them. It's a fantastic nursery, and would definitely recommend it.

Both of my children have attended this nursery, and they have both loved their time there. All the staff across all the rooms are really friendly and always make the time to give you a full update of the day no matter how busy it gets. The staff are really attentive and help address any issues you have. One of my children had a speech delay, and the staff were really supportive in helping him develop with that, and by the time he started reception, he was so much more confident with his talking. The nursery is always doing different things to engage the children, and mine have always loved going and often talk about the staff at home. I will be really sad this summer when my youngest leaves to start reception in September.

My little girl started attending Sunbeams in the summer of 2020 soon after she turned one and I was quite nervous having her out of my care for the first time, especially during these strange pandemic times! Her carers and all the staff have been amazing from the very first day and so reassuring. They took detailed notes before she started about her needs/how things are done at home, and they have continued to be receptive and communicative about her development ever since; they have also never begrudged a phone call from me when I have had a wobble that she's okay! My little one is now approaching two and talks happily about the activities she has done that day, she knows her primary carers by name, she's always got a full tummy, and I know she is building healthy and positive relationships.

I would highly recommend Sunbeams Day Nursery. My daughter attends Austhorpe, Leeds and has done since she was 12 months (she is now 32 months old), and she absolutely loves it. The staff are all lovely and spend lots of time doing activities with the children. They regularly update the parent app so you can see what your child has done through the day and what they have eaten etc, which gives reassurance. They have been great throughout Covid and have kept us informed and have a good process in place.
