My son has been in the nursery since he was 9 months old and loves it. The staff are so friendly and he learns so much each day.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, it's always lovely to see.
Our daughter has attended for the last 3 years. In that time, she has grown in confidence and been provided with a nurturing environment in order to learn new skills. The staff are all fabulous and our daughter loves it here!
Thank you for your amazing feedback, we are so pleased she has such a wonderful time at nursery.
Kids Planet Longbenton is a lovely nursery, and we very happily send our child here. It is full of kind and compassionate staff who we trust to take good care of our child.
Thank you so much, we all really appreciate your lovely feedback.
My child loves going to nursery, been great for his language and social development. It is very lucky to attend a nursery where he get's a healthy choice of meals, variety of different daily activities and have staff who are attentive and caring. Plus really enjoy each month getting golden moments.
Thank you for your amazing feedback, we are thrilled you are so happy with your son's care.
Our daughter started attending this setting after she had just turned one. We are delighted with how she's developed from a babbling baby to a fully conversational, confident toddler. The staff are fantastic, the care is exceptional, the activities are engaging and the daily menu is varied and nutritious. Communication is second to none and the staff have always supported us with any concerns we have as a family. We are so confident in this setting we have also chosen to send our 11-month-old son and although he's only been attending since the beginning of January he is also thriving and we can sense he feels both happy and safe in the environment. If there was one area for improvement it would be being more transparent in setting out how invoices are charged. As an individual who is confident in understanding figures, I find these more complicated than needed. Given this is our second largest expense after our mortgage, I want to be confident what we are paying each month is correct.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback, we are so pleased your children love coming to our nursery and we absolutely love caring for them too!
My daughter absolutely loves this nursery! The staff are amazing so nurturing and attentive and have created such a warm and supportive environment. My daughter always looks forward to coming and has progressed in leaps and bounds in the time she has been here. Couldn't be happier with the care and encouragement she receives and can't recommend enough!
Thank you for taking the time to send us your lovely feedback, we appreciate it so much.
We have used the nursery for almost three years. Our little one has always loved going into nursery and always enjoys his time. We do recommend the nursery and our littlest will be joining in the summer.
Thank you very much for your lovely review, the team appreciates the feedback so much.
My daughter has been coming to the nursery since she was 8 months old and is now 3. The staff in the nursery are fantastic and I can't really fault them however since the nursery was taken over by kids planet they have implemented certain things that just do not sit right with me and I find it to be a huge safeguarding concern and feel it should be removed and done how it was previously. They have taken the excitement out of the look of the nursery e.g. no more paintings in the windows. Staff are great but has lost its uniqueness, you can tell it's just a chain wanting to make money.
Thank you for your review and for your time to talk through your worries. I hope your concerns have been eased and if you have any further queries please get in touch. We look forward to continuing to care for your child hope they have many more happy days with us. Best Wishes, Kate
Very positive experience. Staff are brilliant. App keeps you up to date. Daughter has settled in very well and quickly. Thoroughly enjoys it. Bringing her along leaps and bounds. Great healthy food. Would recommend.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and support.

Meet the Team (1)

My name is Kate and I am the Manager at Kids Planet Longbenton. I have worked in childcare for over 20 years achieving my foundation degree in Early Childhood studies. My childcare journey started as an apprentice at age 16 and over the years I have gained lots of experience, working my way up and eventually, I was promoted to manager in October 2023.
I love being involved with all aspects of nursery life seeing how happy and content the children are and how seeing them grow and learn in our caring and nurturing environment.
We look forward to hearing from you and showing you what our nursery offers.
