Review from Angela H (Mother of Child) published on 17 April 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

From Day 1 in nursery, I have found Kids Allowed nursery to be amazing - from the initial settling in, through to Toddler 1. My child loves the staff, the activities, food looks amazing. All staff are friendly and took a genuine interest in my child as an individual and some amazing days out, especially to see the horses at the horse centre.

Thanks so much Angela, such lovely feedback and it means a lot to the team. We love looking after her and it's been so lovely being part of her Kids Allowed journey.

Review from Alex G (Father of Child) published on 17 April 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My son has been coming here for almost two years and has been through both the baby room and toddlers.
I am always impressed in the way everybody takes time to get to know him and his individual needs and quirks. The support my son has had over the time he has been here had been excellent and has helped him learn and grow and always at his own pace.

It's just the security a parent needs when handing his child over 5 days a week.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Alex, Thanks so much for this wonderful feedback, we really appreciate it. It has been amazing seeing his journey through Kids Allowed so far and we love looking after him. Again thank you so much this will mean so much to the team.

Review from Amy R (Mother of Child) published on 17 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I enrolled my son into Kids Allowed Macclesfield in June 2018 when my childminder closed her business. I was hesitant to have him go to a large nursery as I felt he wouldn’t get the 1-1 attention I wanted for him and feared he would just be another child in a huge class. I couldn’t have been more wrong. The team at Kids Allowed Macclesfield are the most welcoming, warm and loving people. My son absolutely loves it there. Since he started, his speech, vocabulary, confidence and independence has come on unbelievably. The activities and trips they plan on a weekly basis keep my son entertained and engaged. I couldn’t be more thrilled to have found somewhere so nurturing for my little one. Thank you so much to the team for everything you continue to do.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

This was so wonderful to read, thanks Amy! I remember doing your show round and I am so glad you're happy with your decision, we absolutely love looking after him. Thanks again for such lovely words, we really appreciate it.

Overall Experience

My child came here after almost two years from a different nursery and it was a total game changer. Happy staff, happy children. I had him in the same time as my nine-month-old in the baby room so have experience of the whole baby to leaving experience. I loved the way the staff reacted to the needs of the children on a daily basis - my son needed settling in, had a hat obsession and the trip the following week was to a hat museum - the personal touches are just what you need to feel your child is cared for and listened to. So much love for this place - slightly more expensive than some alternatives but well worth every penny. I couldn’t be happier with it for my kids.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Aww Katy thanks so much for such lovely feedback, this will mean so much to the team. We love looking after both your children. Thanks again we really appreciate your lovely words. xxx

Overall Experience

I would highly recommend Kids Allowed Macclesfield. The staff are fantastic - friendly, caring, well trained and hard working. The facilities are excellent and the meals which are prepared for the children are first class. My daughter has attended the holiday club for the last four years and my son who started in the baby room is now in toddlers. Both love it at K A. It puts my mind at ease knowing that my precious little ones are being well looked after and that they enjoy their time there.

Kids Allowed is a fantastic nursery with excellent facilities that benefit all ages. Both my children attend Kids Allowed and they couldn’t be happier. The staff go out of their way to build positive relationships with the children, and to make their experience the best it could possibly be.

Review from Louise C (Mother of Child) published on 6 February 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I can never thank Kids Allowed Macclesfield or the staff enough for how they have looked after my little girl and me. My little girl started whilst I was in the height of post-natal anxiety. I was always honest with the staff about how hard I found even the idea of leaving her and hadn’t even left her with family yet. From her settles everyone went above and beyond. But for me it was the little things. A reassuring phone call to say she was ok. Pictures being sent home so I could see she had had a good day. Even the team at reception would always be there with a tissue when needed. Nothing is too much bother. I can honestly say without the staff at Kids Allowed I wouldn’t have been able to return to work. Knowing my daughter is so well cared for, loved and genuinely seen as her own person, not another number. Thank you Kids Allowed Macclesfield.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

This was so wonderful to read, thanks so much for the lovely feedback. She is a pleasure to look after, it's been amazing watching her go from babies to woddlers and we can't' wait to be part of the rest of her Kids Allowed journey.

Overall Experience
I love Kids Allowed. My daughter started in the Toddler Room and now attends the after school club and holiday club. The team go above and beyond to ensure every child has the best time and the team really get to know every child individually.
The menu is fabulous, home cooked and healthy and the trips the children go on are another reason why Kids Allowed is the only place I'd send my child.

They also now do flexible hours so it's not just the standard 8-6. Top marks Kids Allowed.

Review from Lisa G (Mother of Child) published on 29 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I can't rate Kids Allowed highly enough. Our son has been in every room from Babies all the way through to where he is now Prep School. His Kids Allowed journey has been incredible and we couldn't be happier. The facilities are fabulous, so much space, both inside and out for the children to play. The trips that he has been on over the years have been fantastic, museums, parks, the airport, sealife centre etc.
The activities are always so well planned & structured. I believe that Kids Allowed (particularly Pre and prep school) provides the most amazing environment and activities to prepare the children for School.

The staff are just amazing. From, Babies, Woddlers, Toddlers, Pre/Prep school I have never had one cause for concern. I know that I leave my son in the best hands at Kids Allowed. They truly care. Every child is important and special. My son has had amazing relationships with all of his key workers and lots of other staff. Not forgetting the reception / admin staff. Again, just brilliant and always there to help out

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Aww Lisa, that is such wonderful feedback and so lovely to read. We have loved looking after him and seeing his journey through Kids Allowed! Reading this feedback is the exact reason we love what we do so much, making children happy! Again thanks so much we really appreciate it. x

Review from Evie (Mother of Child) published on 12 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I moved my Daughter from another nursery to Kids Allowed Macclesfield just as she turned 2 and I can honestly say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made. The facilities are amazing as is the flexibility (swap day service) but it’s the Staff that make it the best. They create such a welcoming, loving and friendly atmosphere.
I drop my daughter off in the early drop room and although there tends to be different staff each week, they are all so good with her. Always happy with open arms and what amazes me is, they always know the names of the children.

There is so much to do and I know my daughter never gets bored, the activities are planned with much consideration. No matter how busy they are when I go to pick her up they always ensure I am told about her day. My daughter is thriving and a lot of that is down to the staff at KA. I trust the whole team and know that my daughter is safe and well looked after. I would definitely recommend Kids Allowed Macclesfield.

Review from Emily C (Mother of Child) published on 12 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both of my children attend Kids Allowed Macclesfield (one from Preschool to Holiday Club and the other from Baby Room to Preschool) and I am so thankful for all the care, attention and fun that Kids Allowed provide. The staff look after my children so well whilst nurturing their individual needs and personalities in a safe and loving environment. The staff not only care for the children but for the whole family from the friendly daily greetings for us all, to the comprehensive handovers and beautiful creations my kids bring home to share with us. Our family has had a tricky personal journey, but the staff are there every step of the way to support and help us in any way they can which is so reassuring. The bonds my children and the staff have are so special and it is lovely to hear and see all the amazing activities they have done together. I am so grateful to that Kids Allowed has the same philosophy of care and nurture that I would wish for in a nursery - my children are so happy, confident and look forward to each day at Kids Allowed.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Emily, that was so lovely to read, such lovely feedback and it's very much appreciated. This is exactly why we love what we do, looking after both your children has been an absolute pleasure. Again thank you so much.

Review from Alison P (Mother of Child) published on 12 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son is currently at this fantastic nursery. In the year that he has been attending Kids Allowed he has absolutely thrived, he loves going in every day and the staff are all so friendly and welcoming.
They take the time to get to know him and are aware of his likes and dislikes.
He loves the little trips that they go on and the variation of activities that they provide each time he attends is brilliant.

It makes going to work that little bit easier knowing my little boy is happy, safe and enjoying a fun packed day.

Reply from Beth Rumsey, at Kids Planet Macclesfield

Alison, thank you so much for your lovely words, I'm so glad we make going to work that bit easier for you, exactly what we're here for and we absolutely love looking after him. Can't wait to see him carry on thriving through his KA journey, again thank you we really appreciate it.

Review from Milly B (Mother of Child) published on 20 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending Kids Allowed since he was 8 months old and I honestly cannot speak highly enough of everything about this nursery. The staff go above and beyond and not just the staff in their rooms either - they all make such an effort to know all the children which creates such a lovely, friendly atmosphere. The activities for the children are planned with much consideration and my son is absolutely thriving. The girls are a huge part of my son's life and it means so much that they genuinely love taking the time to get to know him through and through. I trust them implicitly. As a parent, I would highly recommend Kids Allowed.

Review from Clare B (Mother of Child) published on 19 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a childcare provider who really goes the extra mile. Every day I leave my son knowing he’s in amazing hands of people who genuinely care about him. They take the time to get to know him as an individual and his likes and dislikes which is why he loves it so much and will often refer to his carers by name when he’s at home! My son is now 2.5 and started at this nursery when he was 7 months and in the time there he’s developed into a confident, bright and kind little boy and I know nursery has really contributed to this. Both myself and my husband work full time and we can only do this knowing our son is in a safe, encouraging and happy environment such as this.

Our family has used Kids Allowed Macclesfield since August 2012 for our two children. They have both been in babies, woddlers, toddlers, preschool, prep school and are now in out of school and holiday club. We cannot rate this nursery highly enough. We have always been struck by the professionalism and friendliness of all the staff. Our children love the activities and opportunities that this nursery has afforded them. As parents, we know that our children will have a great day when they go to Kids Allowed Macclesfield, that they will always enjoy the food, and they will be well looked after.

My daughter has had a super time developing and learning at Kids Allowed. She started in the baby room and has progressed through the whole nursery. Every room has been a pleasure to walk into. The staff are very friendly to me. I love how well they know my child, her likes and dislikes, personality and interests, using this in the activities they take part in with my child. Now she is all ready for school with a whole load of life and school skills. Thank you, everyone, at Kids Allowed Macclesfield for the amazing work you do every day.
