Kids Planet Austhorpe

Both our children have attended Sunbeams, Austhorpe. I can’t fault the staff in each of the rooms, our children have always liked going to nursery.

Sunbeams has made our time going back to work so much easier knowing our little one is happy at nursery. The staff are all attentive and all amazing with the children. My little one is in the infant's room and he is so happy. The staff are happy and always available and willing to talk with you. Our little one has come on so much and it's sometimes a struggle to get him to leave. Thank you for everything you do at Sunbeams.

My son has been attending Sunbeams, Austhorpe since June 2019. He has moved from the baby room up to the toddler room and has loved every moment! Which as a parent is a huge relief that we made the right choice of nursery for him.

Fantastic staff and an all-round great nursery where my 4-year-old has been for 3 years. Always very informed and my child loves attending. Never any issues. Lots of themed events and activities

The menu choices are amazing and offer a wide range. My little boy is always coming home with paintings or booklets that he has completed and extra touches such as birthday cards which is lovely.

I have tried three different nurseries for my son and this has by far been the best place. My son has very specific needs. He has autism and is non-verbal. I am so pleased with Sunbeams, Austhorpe Lane, they have been absolutely amazing and I am so glad we found them. Everyone, from the staff to the management, is so friendly and you can tell they truly care about the children. My son has already improved with his development and is now trying new snacks and can drink from a cup of water! On top of that, he loves going to nursery, he screams and flaps with excitement when we pull up and the days he is not in, he cries when we drive past! He cuddles the staff and has developed a lovely bond with them. I couldn’t recommend it more.

My son has attended this nursery since he was 7 months old. In each room he has been in so far every member of the team have been fabulous. My little boy loves the days he goes and always comes home with something new he's picked up or learnt. The staff make a personal connection with not just our son but us as a family when we come to collect him. Everyone always seems very friendly and even if they are not involved within the room your child is in they 9/10 acknowledge you and your little ones are there. Even though the area outside is fairly small they manage the time well outside with the kids.

I have recommended this nursery to a few friends who now bring their young ones here.

My little girl has attended the nursery since she was 6 months old, I was very sceptical leaving her to return to work however Sunbeams made that transition to work so easy with how amazing the staff are! She's still here at 3 years old and won't be leaving until the transition to school. Watching her grow and develop over the years and become the cheeky little character she is today. I can safely say that Sunbeams has played a massive part in this and I can't give my gratitude enough! All staff members engage with all me and my little girl regardless of whether she's in the class or not, I would 100% recommend the nursery to everyone.

I'd just like to say I've been really impressed with how the manager has accommodated my son starting and then soon after increasing his days at short notice. I have found the staff in the toddler room to be completely child focused and positive about my boy and I feel very comfortable leaving him. Each week there seems to have been a theme such as backing for mother's day or crafting for easter and he is thriving at nursery. Thank you for taking such good care of my boy!

Both my children have loved their time at Sunbeams. The staff have known my children inside out and gone out of their way to ensure my children are happy and safe. They have stimulating activities, indoor and outdoor and I love it when they come home with baking! Each time my children have moved into older rooms, the transition has been planned carefully and my children have adapted brilliantly. Activities are varied; crafts, baking, outdoor equipment,paint,sensory experiences. The menu is varied and my children eat a range of flavours and textures. Family style eating, altogether also encourages table manners. My eldest also took part in cook school, learning skills themselves. Thank you Austhorpe Team for your care and commitment.

My daughter has been coming here since she was 7 months old. She is now over 2 years old. I can honestly not pick a fault. She has such fun days and loves it. The reassurance from the staff is amazing. The management and staff could not do enough for the children and parents. Every time I pick her up she has a huge smile on her face and always has a cake she has baked or a picture she has made.

I absolutely love this nursery and the staff. Its so clean and so friendly. I know my daughter is in very safe hands which feels fantastic.

Thank you Sunbeams!!!! You do an amazing job xxxx

My little girl has attended since she was 10 months old and is now 3 years old. I’ve always been extremely happy with the nursery and she has always been happy to attend. The staff are fabulous and so caring. Thank you

My daughter settled into Sunbeams extremely well. She is happy when I leave her and always hands overs pictures and smiles when I pick her up. The key workers are all really friendly and helpful. Very pleased.

Lovely Nursery, all the staff are friendly and lovely with the children.The nursery is kept clean and tidy. My daughter absolutely loves it.

My daughter has been attending Sunbeams on Halton since last March and she absolutely loves it! Her social skills and speaking are excellent and the staff are fab! I couldn’t have picked a better nursery to send my daughter to.

Both son and daughter go to sunbeams and enjoy going. My three year old son has learnt how to spell letter of his name with the help and dedication of the staff in preparation for school. My two year old daughter loves the activities like baking and playing with sand. All staff really friendly and nice and reassuring as both my children have cried at drop off time in the morning but quickly settle with cuddles from the staff which put me as a mum at ease leaving them whilst going to work.

Our daughter has attended this nursery for the last 26 months and we never have any worries leaving her there. Any issues have been addressed immediately and professionally and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sunbeams. Our daughter talks about the staff as much as her friends and looks forward to her time there.

My son's communication, social interaction, confidence, maturity and general wellbeing has been developed and nurtured continually whilst attending nursery. We recently moved him into a separate programme for pre-schools. The children in this class are the same every day, they know each other, they are allowed to develop their voices and to deepen their understanding and relationships. The activities in this room are pitched at their stage in nursery life and has done more to prepare him for school in September than in a room with children with varying age groups. They have developed his knowledge of phonics so much so he is happy to write a couple of Christmas cards which would have been unheard of 2 months ago. Progress is made and rewarded as applicable.

We have also just seen the kids do their first nativity play - which was fabulous. I would recommend this nursery to all my friends and family. Thank you Sunbeams Austhorpe, Leeds.

My son has been there since he was one and he is very happy. He started part-time but now is full time. The management and staff are very caring, supportive and understanding. I never worry about my son while he is there. This means a lot as a working mother. At certain times, they have been flexible with me in terms of additional days. I would recommend the nursery to parents with no hesitation.
