Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are very happy with Kids Planet Stockport. Our son started in the babies room back in June 2024 and has progressed through waddlers and into toddlers. Each room have been fantastic with him and have helped him to grow and develop.


He loves going to Nursery and he enjoys all the different experiences

that are created for the children. A wide variety of food is offered to the children and alternatives are provided if they are not keen on a particular meal.


The staff are lovely, friendly and enthusiastic which creates a welcoming environment. The staff at reception are very helpful and nothing is too much trouble.

Our daughter started the nursery a few weeks ago and it's been a tough transition for all of us. The nursery have gone above and beyond to make sure that I'm kept informed and that whenever i have called or messaged when worried, they've responded straight away and instantly put my mind at ease. She's
already started settling well now which makes us all feel better. I don't think we could have asked for better support at a really difficult time.

Kids Planet is a lovely nursery and staff are excellent. Our child loves her time at Kids Planet. She's settled well and has developed her language and motor skills in the short time she's attended. Kids planet structure their days well with a variety of celebrations throughout the year with learning
angles to the activities. I highly recommend them. Staff are anpproachable and always contactable. They're helping with potty training at present and have been really supportive with personal goals. On a whole I feel very comfortable with the setting. The catering is really good and fruit is provided as standard every evening.

Sending our children to nursery is such a big decision and I'm so glad we chose Kids Planet Stockport.


Our eldest has been through all the different rooms and has had the best experience to learn and grow in each and built a special bond with all the staff and is ready to take the next step to primary

in September


And now our 2nd is on that same journey and I'm super confident that she will have the same experiences and build similar relationships.


The reception staff are so welcoming and friendly every morning and very accommodating with any changes to schedules etc we might request.


The updates we get and any calls required are always thorough.


Couldn't imagine our girls going anywhere different


Thank you to all the staff you are amazing!

My daughter has only been coming here since September 2025 and I have never felt so at ease leaving her in somebody else's care. I worry about everything and was on the verge of tears for absolutely no reason when she first started, but the staff have been amazing with me and my daughter from day one,
to the point where I trust them 100%. My daughter loves it here and shes thriving. Special thanks to Ace, Iffat and Enina x

Couldn't be happier, my little one loves attending, there's always a good range of activities including outdoor play, sports and learning. Parents and carers are provided with good updates via the app and all staff are super helpful, engaging with the children and form real bonds with the kids which

My both kids went to kids planet Stockport and I would never think and trust anybody else with them. When looking for a day care/nursery for my kids my utmost priority was that they are well fed during the 8 to 9 hourse they are away from home. And among all nurseries I visited, Kids planet was the
only one with full halal menu. Actually they eat better at nursery that at home, hahaha.
I can't even explain how caring and gentle the whole staff is towards the kids. Kids develope an attachment and always looking forward to all the fun they enjoy. I would always recommend kids planet to my family and friends.
Love for all the staff.

Excellent purpose-built facilities and cover a wide variety of dietary needs. The staff go above and beyond to help your child settle and stay happy and i look forward to my daughter having many happy years there. The only thing i dislike is the new timings, i would love for then to be more flexible
and reconsider their policy on that!

My little boy attends the baby room and the staff in the baby room are amazing. In particular Jenny and Millie he sees the most I believe, and they make him feel very settled when he gets upset in the morning. They also give me plenty updates throughout the day & during the handover session they are
so lovely to talk to and you can tell they are very caring people. I'm really happy that my little boy is looked after by all the staff in the baby room as I can't fault them.
The reception team are also so lovely and welcoming when coming in in the morning and for any enquiries they are happy to help.
Would highly recommend this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.906)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.906) out of 10 for Kids Planet Stockport is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 66 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 66 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.906 for Kids Planet Stockport is calculated as follows: ( (717 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 786 Ratings = 4.906
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Stockport is based on 66 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 197 number of registered child places is 39.4, which has been reached with 66 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
