Kids Planet Knaresborough

My child has been with them since 4 months old, and have been supportive, providing a secure and educational place for my little one to thrive. I can't thank the team who work there enough.

My little boy loves attending nursery. He has built lovely relationships with the nursery staff, especially those in his room. When picked up, he is content and playing, always with something different. Whether it be singing with a staff member, in the sensory room or playing with his own toy. Pictures on the app also show the varied activities he does. The app is well updated throughout the day for us too.

Our little boy started nursery in September 2025 in the baby room. His experience has been absolutely wonderful. They have helped him settle in well and all the workers in the room know and understand him. Our little boy loves attending and we get regular updates with the fun and educational play that they engage in. They celebrate lots of different events and make the babies feel special and loved. Really appreciate all that they do.

I would highly recommend to anyone looking for childcare in Knaresborough.

Encourage learning and new skills.

You can tell the staff care for all children, as well as management do.

They understand about it dietary requirements and always supportive in giving ideas on how to help your child further at home

I can't wait to sign my 4 month old up ready for when she is 1!

I'm very pleased with your preschool. The care is excellent and I know that my child is in good hands. Very easy to communicate with everyone and everyone is very helpful. I see my child learning new things and eagerly going to nursery.

with kidsplanet knaresborough. Since having our daughter attend 3 days a week & seeing her development over the last year, we feel we definitely made the right choice. All the staff who look after our daughter on a weekly basis have been nothing short of amazing & we feel, as does our daughter, a great connection with them all, having seen the growth in her all round development whilst she has attended. We also welcome all the support they have given us every step of the way to get our daughter to where she is now, whether it being advice we have been able to use whilst at home, connection with local services for support & their own individual daily connection with our daughter who has really enjoys being there. Great atmosphere all round & have sung their praises at every opportunity. You do a wonderful job & our daughter loves showing your her swish dance too.

Our little boy has been at Kids Planet for 10 months now, and we honestly couldn't be happier with the care and love he receives. From the very beginning, the team made the transition so easy and reassuring - it's amazing to see how much he's settled in and grown in confidence.

They truly go above and beyond every single day. The way they engage with my son, the patience and warmth they show, and the genuine joy they bring to his day mean the world to us. It's clear that they don't just look after the children - they nurture them, celebrate them, and help them thrive.

We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful nursery where our son is not only cared for but truly loved. Thank you, Kids Planet, for creating such a special place for our little one to learn, laugh, and grow.

My daughter also loves being there and I can see how she loves the staff when she smiles at them. She loves being able to play and go out side in the sand pit. You can see how much the staff care for the children who attend. Thank you.

I have been so happy with the care my daughter is receiving at Kids Planet Knaresborough. I was very anxious about putting my 11 month old daughter at the time into nursery, and all the staff have made it a really lovely experience for both of us. Staff really care about my worries and concerns and they have put them at ease. Staff are amazing with my daughter, distract her when she gets a bit upset, shows her lots of care and attention and have been so respectful when it has come to following our routine at home in nursery. Staff are really good at updating Parent zone app during the day and including a little photo with what my daughter has been doing. This has been lovely to see while I have been away at work. Thank you to the lovely ladies in the Baby/Tots room!

We can't speak highly enough of Kids Planet in Knaresborough. Our daughter absolutely loves going to nursery and we feel completely comfortable she is well cared for there. She really enjoys coming home and telling me all about the activities she has done.

The staff there take a really keen interest in the individual child and make a huge effort to promote these. The nursery holds special days such as spa days, road safety week and stay and plays. It's also great that they do nursery photos and a football club there too.

Our child has developed loads and learnt so much there. We have been really sad to leave when we moved away. We really recommend this nursery to any family.

Our two boys attend Kids Planet Knaresborough and absolutely love the wonderful staff, as do we. They are never without a smile on their face and the care they provide is exceptional. They really know and understand each child and cater to their personality and needs, making sure they feel happy at nursery each day and get enjoyment out of the fun and educational activities that they organise. Our boys seem to learn something new every day and their confidence has grown in leaps and bounds thanks to the amazing support of the staff. The on-site cooked food is a big hit with them too. The staff always have time to stop and talk to us, providing detailed feedback on the boy's day and creating such a warm and friendly atmosphere. Thank you Kids Planet!

Thank you for everything.

Our daughter absolutely loves going to nursery. She had extreme separation anxiety when she first started in the baby room over a year ago but two ladies in particular worked their magic and she is so happy there. Every member of staff that has worked with our daughter has provided outstanding care and I don't have a bad word to say about anyone in the baby/tots room. They are so caring, welcoming, and kind not only to our daughter but to us as parents too. I love that we get updates on the parents app and anything that hasn't been published is discussed at pick-up time so we are always well aware of how the day has been. We have recently had our second baby and without a doubt, she will be going to Kids Planet Knaresborough too. It is our first experience with a nursery but we couldn't fault them at all! I highly recommend it.

The nursery site is safe and clean. There are various activities for the children throughout the day both indoor and outdoor. Food is cooked on-site, which is great.

My son has been attending Kids Planet since early 2023, so he's experienced all the room settings and become really comfortable there. He's grown in confidence and his communication is getting better every day. The staff are wonderful, they know every child and really take care of them, encourage them to be kind and independent, and always plan interesting and creative things for the children to do. They have been brilliant and I can't praise them enough. My son loves going to nursery and I'm happy knowing he's safe and having a great time!

I also think the variety of food and activities is wonderful and has been great to introduce her to at an early age.

Really impressed with the nursery and all the rooms. The staff are all so lovely and attentive and have always helped the kids especially when transitioning to the next room. All staff are really informative when picking the kids up and inform you about their day, what they have eaten and if they've napped. My eldest has come on loads with his numbers and letters since being in pre-school and they are really keen on singing and nursery rhymes in all the rooms. My little one started in tots when she was 18 months old and has been well looked after and had lots of cuddles when she's been unsettled. Would definitely recommend this nursery and all the lovely staff are a credit to it!

Our two grandsons have been at Kids Planet since January 2023 and January 2024 respectively. Both have always been very happy there. Without exception, every staff member and manager I have met have been excellent. It is obvious the staff take a genuine interest in the children's emotional and educational needs and are so caring, loving, and full of fun! They are especially mindful of friendship groups and at the end of every day, there is always a chat about how the day has been. Meals are varied and enjoyed. On the day I have my eldest grandson, he chatters constantly about his key workers and what they have done and loves making things with me to show to them the next day! The app and social media content keep us informed of activities and visits to the nursery and we appreciate the learning reports. Our eldest goes to school this year and we feel that the Kids Planet preschool team will have made a huge difference in making sure that the transition will be a good one for him. Thank you everyone!
