Excellent nursery my child has adjusted to the nursery really really well all staff are lovely and so welcoming, my child has fitted into the nursery so well. My child absolutely loves going to nursery it's bringing her on so much too.
The environment is condusive, clean and always tidy. Mode of communication is very clear with the parents and carers.
They engage the children in learning activities which has served as a great foundation transitioning to the big school.
I will always recommend this nursery to any parent who wish to have the best hands take care of their children.
The activities are great, there's an abundance of books, toys, outdoor play equipment. The Tots' garden is a good size, very safe with lots of apparatus. It's a really nurturing environment.
The food is fab! My daughter's dairy intolerance is met every meal. They have 2 fresh cooked meals every day which is so reassuring to think she has 2 hot meals in the winter and there's always a good balance of meat, veg, fruit and pulses. No beige rubbish.
Couldn't ask for more. I'll be sad when it comes for my daughter to leave.
Fantastic nursery and fantastic staff. My mind is at ease when my daughter attends, she has developed from the baby room to the tots room and the staff are second to none, every parent worries dropping their child off with strangers but with Ettrick Grove you don't need to.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear you've had such a positive experience with us at Kids Planet Ettrick Grove. Providing exceptional care and support to children and families is at the heart of what we do, and your feedback means so much to us.
My granddaughter started in January and has progressed massively since starting here with her communication skills. She looks forward to coming here and has a good bond with all of the nursery nurses. The range of activities they do is great and she loves all thevdobg alongs. We have no worries about her at all when she is here.

I can't say enough good things about this nursery! The staff are not only well-trained professionals but also genuinely kind and patient. They have created such a warm and nurturing space where my daughter feels safe, happy, and excited to learn. Seeing how much she loves going in every week gives me so much peace of mind. I truly appreciate their dedication and the love they put into their work.
The management team are excellent with questions/information. The nursery staff care so much about the children, I've never felt any concerns whatsoever. The nutrition and meals are so varied, it always smells great!
I would very highly recommend this nursery.
Absolutely fantastic nursery and all staff are also fantastic, my little one loves coming to nursery and all staff go above and beyond to make sure all my child needs are met and he is happy, the nursery is always clean and tidy and my child is always learning new things

Lovely, professional and approachable staff. Great facilities and receive regular updates. Great overall experience every time my child attends, lots of opportunities and regular reviews of my child's development. Would highly recommend!

Your kind words mean the world to our team, and we're so excited to continue supporting your little one on their early years journey.
Fab Nursery, my son has settled in lovely since the beginning of the year. He cries sometimes when I drop him off but is normally happy before I've even got my shoes back on. He enjoys all the food he is given on an afternoon.

My daughter has an allergy and this is always catered to.
Amazing nursery they always encourage our daughter to try new things and has come on so much since been with Kids Planet the staff are so lovely and understanding and can speak to them regarding anything can't thank you all enough!x
Excellent , always take care of my son. Great games and activities every day. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. They always listen and make sure that what I've asked for is done. My son always want to go to nursery and every morning got hug from staff .
Great nursery my son has been attending this nursery for almost a year now and absolutely loves everyone who works here. All members of staff are so accommodating and helpful and it always makes my mind at ease when dropping him off
Overall the staff at the nursery are so welcoming and always greet with a smile. Both my children go here and are in different rooms, staff are always happy to go through what they have done at nursery. There's so much to do regarding activities and outdoor areas are safe for kids to play.
Nursery has brought my little boy on so much. He has been coming since he was 10 month old and is now 15 month. Staff are lovely & approachable, always happy when greeting you. The app keeps me updated throughout the day on how my little one is getting on. Love seeing the photos of him happy and enjoying nursery days. Important reassurance to me is that he enjoys coming to nursery and is happy & content when leaving him. Staff build a rapport with the children. The meals are a wide variety, cater for his dietary requirements cooked fresh on site.
My daughter settled into nursery very quickly with the staff who are all so pleasant and lovely. They build up trusting relationships with the children and I feel confident leaving her with them! My little girl regularly talks about her teachers and how much she likes them. She only has lunch there once a week but whatever they give her she usually eats (things which we would struggle to get her to eat at home!). The app is a good tool which they use to show you what your child has been upto throughout the day! They do variety of activities with the children which my little one likes to come home and demonstrate! It's safe to say shes enjoying her time at this nursery.
I'm pleased to see many of the same faces from when it was little learners when my oldest daughter attended. A particular staff member greets you every morning with a lovely smile and hello. Keep up the good work.
My daughter has loved every minute of being in this nursery. They are fantastic. Treat your child as an individual, not just a group. Fun activities every day. My child has come on leaps and bounds with her learning. The staff are fantastic, so kind, caring and friendly. It's also very safe and secure. I never worry about my child escaping. Keep up the good work Kids Planet.
My little girl attended the older classroom and loved it, staff were so welcoming, and provided her with a high standard of care and lots of fun activities. The nursery has individual gardens for the separate classrooms making it safe for all the different age ranges.
Thank you for your lovely review, we're pleased your child has enjoyed their time at Little Learners.
