Review from Jacqueline E (Grandmother of Child) published on 7 December 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I am a retired teacher with a wealth of experience in education and I have been amazed by the wonderful provisions available at Kids Allowed. Both of my grandsons have enjoyed and thrived educationally, physically, socially and emotionally under the expert guidance of the skilled staff at Kids Allowed, Macclesfield.
The whole ethos of the nursery is one of caring, support and encouragement which ensures that every child within their care reaches their own personal potential within a safe and stimulating environment. The staff plan well for their children offering varied and enjoyable activities throughout the day. I particularly applaud the fact that within each of the Kids Allowed facilities there is a trained teacher who oversees the planning and ensures that the activities being delivered are appropriate and challenging.

The staff are always welcoming and helpful and I love the printed feedback received when I collect my grandson outlining everything he has done during the day.

Overall Experience

Excellent nursery - we've used Kids Allowed for both our children from the baby room right the way to them starting school. We now use the out-of-school club for them both. The environment is stimulating and the staff really care about the happiness and well-being of the children. Could not recommend it more highly.

Reply from Emma Thomson, at Kids Planet Macclesfield
Hello, thank you so much for your lovely comments it means the world to the team. We have loved every minute of watching both your children develop through the rooms at Kids Allowed for all these years and they are an absolute pleasure to care for.
Many thanks

We have used this nursery for both of our children. Our youngest is now in toddlers. The team are amazing, dedicated, nothing is too much trouble. Both my children have loved attending and gain so much from being at this nursery. Great feedback about the day and what they've been doing. Could not recommend Kids Allowed Macclesfield enough.

Reply from Emma Thomson, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Hello, we are so happy you chose Kids Allowed Macclesfield for both of your children. It has been so nice to see what a fantastic big brother your eldest has become and watching them both enjoy their time at nursery. The team are all so passionate at what they do and love to see the children learn...

Review from Lucy B (Mother of Child) published on 24 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We are really pleased with the excellent level of care for our daughter at Kids Allowed Macclesfield. One of the deciding factors for me was that when visiting the nursery prior to committing to them, every member of staff smiled and said hello in passing in the corridor. The architecture of the space also feels very 'open' and accountable eg large windows, outdoor spaces off every room and a real sense of community amongst the staff. At every touchpoint we've had with the nursery, every member of staff has been professional, friendly and helpful and they have always put the needs and wellbeing of our daughter first. Throughout the day-to-day pick up/drop off of our daughter, staff members are always, without fail, friendly and professional and you feel well able to talk to your child's key worker at any point without rushing. The team have always answered our questions really well and obviously work hard to enable a good relationship with the parents of children in their care.

Review from Francesca S (Mother of Child) published on 23 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The baby room staff are always enthusiastic, friendly and happy to listen/talk about any questions I have on drop off/collection. My little one is always very excited to go inside and start his day with the baby room staff. I enjoy seeing updates throughout the day on the activities and 'moments' that my little one has been up to. I really like the variety of food that my little one experiences at nursery which greatly helps with his weaning journey.

Additionally, the reception staff have always been very helpful and respond quickly if I have a query or issue that needs resolving.

Reply from Emma Thomson, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Hello Francesca, thank you so much for your lovely feedback and we are so glad your little one has settled so well in with us. He is so happy to come in which in turn makes us feel happy. Lovely to hear that you are also enjoying the new app which we love uploading 'moments' and things throughout...

Our son loves his Kids Allowed days - he always has such fun. He is getting extra support for his speech which the K A team have readily supported and they’re clearly committed to seeing every child flourish. Wouldn’t send my son anywhere else.

Thank you so much, Helen, for the lovely feedback it really means a lot to myself and all the team. We love watching him grow and learn and happy to hear the support we are providing is helping him to flourish.

Overall Experience

Such a lovely environment. I wouldn't send my son anywhere else! The staff are all so kind and caring, not just to the children, but the parents too! One day, I was feeling a bit emotional and they gave me a big hug and lots of reassurance. My son is learning so much. It is incredible to see how quickly he is developing. Thank you, Kids Allowed, for everything you do!

Overall Experience

I would have no hesitation in recommending Macclesfield Kids Allowed Nursery. The care my son receives is second to none and it is a joy to see him so happy. The staff are friendly and welcoming.

My son has thrived since being at the nursery (over 3 years) and the environment has really grown his self-confidence. The room team are imaginative with their activities and trips and it's awesome hearing about all the things he has done at the end of his day.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Michael, thanks so much for this lovely feedback, we have loved being part of your son's Kids Allowed journey and seeing him grow. We also love seeing that he is so happy here. We really appreciate your wonderful feedback and it will mean the world to the team. Thanks

Review from Jacqui R (Mother of Child) published on 29 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Choosing a nursery is such a hard choice as you are trusting people you don’t know to look after your child! My son started Kids Allowed at 6 months old and graduated last year, my daughter started at 6 months old as is now moving up to woddlers. They treat all kids like there own, all staff are so welcoming and friendly! Sending my kids to Kids Allowed was the best decision we made and somewhere they have both made friends for life!!

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Jacqui, thanks so much, this was wonderful to read and we really appreciate it. We love looking after both of your children.

Review from Joanne D (Mother of Child) published on 26 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both my children attend Kids Allowed, my eldest from the age of 8 months and still goes to out of school club now aged 7 and my youngest who is now in toddler 2.
My children have never had a 'bad' day. They teach them so much, from how to sing wind the bobbin to lifelong skills such as using cutlery or holding a pen to write and draw, The team are amazing, caring, knowledgeable and kind. They make an effort to get to know your kids on a personal level, their likes, dislikes and interests, they are met every day with a smile, a warm heartfelt cuddle and genuine eagerness to give them the best day. Not to mention the yummy nutritious meals that the in-house chef prepares daily, my daughter never comes home hungry (which is no mean feat for her and her bottomless tummy). She goes on amazing trips and is always eager to tell me what she's been up to with her friends when I collect her. I wouldn't trust anybody else to look after my girls!

I would highly recommend Kids Allowed to anyone.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Jo, this was wonderful to read. We love looking after both girls and watching them grow through their KA journey. This feedback is lovely and exactly why we do what we love. It will mean so much to the team. Thanks so much!

I would recommend Kids Allowed to all of my ‘mummy friends’. I think the nursery is well led, clean, has a range of activities for the children to do and much more. If there are any problems they deal with it straight away. All the staff are very friendly and approachable. The staff are always happy and appear to enjoy their jobs in making children happy.

Review from Rachael B (Mother of Child) published on 23 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Kids Allowed have been really supportive and flexible with regards to childcare. They put me at ease straight away when my child started nursery as she was only 7 months old so I was a little apprehensive. Since she has been there, my daughter has settled very well and the learning and interaction Kids Allowed provide, even from such a young age, is notable in all aspects of my child’s life.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Thank you so much, Rachael, for such lovely words, it's a pleasure looking after her and so happy she's settled into babies so well. Again thanks, we really appreciate it.
