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.

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.

Where do I begin having a child with additional needs and sending them off to nursery is a very daunting experience. But I can hand on heart say that kids planet Stockport have taken care of my son like their own. Nothing is too much trouble. I'm going to be sad to see my son leave and go to school
as I know he was in truly safe hands and I felt so comfortable leaving him. His key worker is amazing and I call her his nursery mum I wish she could go and work in his school with him. The manager is amazing and always available for a chat or to address any of my anxieties. The receptionist is always so helpful and I love seeing her smiley face in the morning. The senco have helped me with his echp and getting him ready for school making sure everything's in place. I honestly am going to be so sad to see him leave and I wish I couple pocket all the staff and take him with me. You have made his time at nursery so enjoyable and I want to thank you x

Kids Planet Stockport is simply fabulous. I couldn't have asked for anything more for my baby. It's always a difficult time for me having to go back to work and not be with my children all day every day, this time around was so much easier because I knew how happy my baby is there and that she's in
very capable hands. The food is always healthy with a good range of different things to try. I am kept up to date every day via the app. The staff are absolutely fantastic and have such a lovely way with the children. The admin side of things is easy to understand and work with. My baby loves coming here. It's also safe and secure.

My child has done 2 weeks and is settling in well. The team in the baby room are amazing. Had the most interaction with one staff member in particular who is great and always does a great handover at drop off and pick up times. I always feel well informed and that my baby is in good care. Two further
staff members have also been great.

Absolutely highly recommend Kids Planet Stockport!
As a first time mummy, it was so hard to start my 2 year old at nursery after it being just me and her all while daddy is at work.
But they have been so supportive, they didn't make me feel uncomfortable at all to call in and check on her as much
I wanted to! Which has been so reassuring. Honestly, it's daunting but with the right staff and nursery, you will have the best support and I feel like Kids Planet Stockport has provided that for me and my daughter.
They have an app that helps keep you updated and captured her moments so you feel involved, and they have weekly activities where you can see what your child will be doing.
It's amazing, as much as I didn't want to send her and still get nervous every day, it's reassuring to know they are doing the absolute best to give her the best experience.

Amazing staff, made me and my daughter feel very welcomed when we came for our inductions back in December 2024. They have gone above and beyond for my little one who has started and made sure she was safe and happy.
Always a joy to pick her up to hear the lovely stories the staff tell me what they
have gotten up to during her days at nursery.
Lovely staff, at reception and in my daughter's class.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When I first started looking for a nursery for my daughter, I found it really difficult to choose the right place. However, when I visited the Kids Planet website and read about how the CEO is a mother just like me, it gave me a sense of reassurance. The staff were incredibly helpful from the start,
making sure my daughter had a smooth induction week where I was able to meet the team and observe the nursery's daily routine. Since my daughter has been attending, any time I've had a concern, the staff has been so supportive, reassured me, and helped resolve any issues quickly. I have to especially mention the manager who has been a huge support to me and my family. The entire team consistently shows a positive and caring attitude, which makes all the difference.
I was so impressed with the care my daughter received that I decided to enroll my son there as well. They've met all his needs and shown the same level of support and care.
I truly couldn't recommend this nursery enough.

My little boy has been at Kids Planet since he was 8 months old, he's now nearly 3. In each of the 3 rooms he's been in we've had a really good experience overall with lots of age-appropriate and engaging activities for the kids and kind staff that make an effort to get to know the children well. The
staff in his current room, Toddler 2, are friendly, caring, and enthusiastic, I feel they really go out of their way to make sure the kids have a good time & have got to know my son really well. My son has come on really well in terms of his confidence and overall development whilst he's been at Kids Planet but more importantly, I feel confident leaving him in good hands with staff who are kind and knowledgeable and who care about him. The ability to add/swap nursery days is also hugely useful as it allows my mum (who has him 2 days a week) to have breaks when needed. I would recommend this nursery to other parents.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.901)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.901) 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 61 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 61 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 4.901 for Kids Planet Stockport is calculated as follows: ( (660 Excellents x 5) + (62 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 727 Ratings = 4.901
  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 61 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 61 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.
