Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have sent my oldest daughter to Kids Planet in Stockport, and they currently look after my youngest daughter. Over the last four years, I've experienced staff of all ages who all develop a bond with the children in their care. The range of sensory activities they do daily is excellent, and occasionally
they take the children on trips. They ensure the children play outside on suitable days too. Any problems your child may experience throughout their development are listened to, and they try their best to help and support. If there are medical concerns, they will keep you well informed, support you as parents with medication, and will share their daily experiences with your child too. The staff are well-trained, professional, and friendly. There's not too many children in one room either. Your children are looked after properly.

Friendly staff and engaged curriculum to keep little ones entertained all day. Room staff are great at building strong relationships with children and bringing out the best in them. Lots of activities to help development across key learning and development areas and reports each day against progress
to help you know which areas to focus on at home. Room leader who is an absolute star - she's built such a strong and positive relationship with my son, he really enjoys spending time and learning with her.

Since moving up to the toddler's room our son has really come along- his speech is improving and he always seems genuinely excited when he arrives and runs straight in.
The staff are always happy to help and are very accommodating for my ever changing work schedule.

Overall, we've had a really positive experience at this nursery. The staff are without a doubt some of the most accommodating and caring people. Even team members who don't work directly in ny son's room have taken the time to build relationships with him, know his name (which says a lot given how big
the nursery is!) and always make us feel that nothing we ask is too much. They've been very flexible and supportive with date changes or emergency sessions at short notice. Communication is excellent and helps to keep peace of mind.
One of the main reasons we chose this nursery initially was the amount of outdoor space available (every room has access to their own space). My little boy loves being outside - in all weathers!
We're very appreciative of keeping our little one safe and happy.

The staff at Kids Planet Stockport have been absolutely amazing with my son. From him going at 2 years old to finding out he has additional needs they've not only supported him in every way imaginable but also me. From the staff in the room to management to reception. It is always clean, the kids are
always so looked after and they have a great range of meals. They do lots of activities every day and even take the kids out. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough!

Review from Reza J (Father of Child) published on 21 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little boy was terrified of being left at the nursery when he first started going. But with immense help and understanding from Kids Planet's staff and management, we gradually got to a point where our son started going to nursery happily and even started looking forward to go to the next session.
Kids planet's staff and management are patient, understading and compassionate towards children and their parrents. They try hard to make going to nursery as pleasant and memorable as possible for the children to want to go back and enjoy being there, playing and having fun. What more can you ask for from a good nursery? Thank you all Kids Planet, well done and best of luck for the future. Just Briilliant

I moved my little boy to this Nursery in September 2025, he had been to a different nursery beforehand. Since he moved to this nursery I have seen such a positive change in my little boy, he adores nursery. The staff are brilliant with him, he comes home excited to tell me about his day and he has made
some great friends. My little boy also has a Dairy and Beef allergy and the nursery have been brilliant with accommodating his allergies, ensuring that all food is healthy and suitable for him. There is also always someone in the reception area and everyone is always really friendly, the nursery make you feel like it is one big family.

My daughter joined kids planet Sept 2025. The first couple of weeks were really tough emotionally, the staff at kids planet were so understanding and accommodating. They answered all my questions and reassured me with updates throughout the day.


My daughter loves going to nursery now and has a smile

on her face when we get to the door.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team at Stockport has been amazing as my daughter has got medical conditions where she has seizures. There are no warning signs so everyone has to be on guard. My daughter has had a few whilst she has been at nursery and the team have dealt with the situation very professionally, acted quickly but
more so made sure my daughter was cared for as if she were their own whilst I got to her. I chose Kids Planet as other nurseries have just a first aider, however Kids Planet train all their staff with first aid training, so it reassures me that she will get the necessary treatment fast, rather than being delayed whilst a first aider was called. Even after her seizures the team always check if I'm ok and how she is doing. Thank you Kids Planet for the care and putting my mind at rest whilst she is at nursery.

Both our children went to Kids Planet and both had an amazing time. Staff are incredibly friendly and caring, I want to give a big shout out to Enina, Ace and Iffat. Enina is lovely and gentle, my daughter really loves spending time with her, she is always detailed with the feedback and makes sure children
are cared for. Ace is very fun, and has incredible play ideas and energy even at the end of a busy day, I always admire the resilience and enthusiasm and Iffat is really caring about the children overall.

My daughter started here at the age of 2, she is non verbal autistic and I couldn't of asked for a better nursery! They provided Skyler with everything she needed to excel, they're a caring loving and patient nursery. They help you as a parent with schools, EHCPs anything you need. If it wasn't for
this nursery I would of been lost with trying to navigate everything, as a sen parent i cant recommend this nursery enough! I was so nervous about anyone looking after my baby but they helped her grow into an amazing little girl.

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.
