Kids Planet Stockport

My daughter has had amazing settling in sessions and has had a brilliant first week. The staff have been so friendly and helpful. I love the app and how it updates with her naps, food, nappies and observations. The sensory room and outdoor space are amazing and she's had some positive potty training here as well.

The staff are all lovely, and I feel calm leaving him as I know he is in good hands.

Absolute amazing nursery, Kids Allowed Stockport have been amazing with my little boy. Fantastic space, learning resources and meals.

My son has only just started last week and is having separation anxiety when I drop him off. The staff are brilliant at comforting him and trying to encourage him to get involved in activities. I get regular updates and photos on the app which reassures me. The staff also called me to let me know he had settled which puts my mind at rest before going to work! They seem passionate about their jobs from what I've seen so far. Security is good as well. I'm sure he will get used to coming here and start looking forward to his nursery days! Would recommend.

My youngest grandson has just started at Kids Allowed following in the footsteps of his older brother. He is a 'clingy' child and cries when his mum drops him off, but the staff have encouraged him and looked after him every step of the way. He is now starting to look forward to going. The nursery is vey well run and the security is impeccable. The meals they provide are fantastic and my grandson who loves his food really enjoys them. I can't fault the nursery.

We needed a nursery that could offer full-time placement with reliability, flexibility around pickup/drop-off times but also with a team that would care for our child with compassion and a desire to help nurture her interests. The service we've received has surpassed our expectations and we've been delighted with the experience our child has received from the KA team. The children are taken on regular trips in the local area (e.g. to reading sessions at the library, to the shops, train station and park). They have daily activities in tuff trays designed to help the children achieve their Birth to 5 Matters and Framework Indicators. All of this info along with food, naps and nappy changes are updated in (practically) real-time on the app throughout the day. But, it's the key workers that really make this place so special. They go over and above to make our child and us as parents have the best experience and feel informed and connected at all times. Thank you KA!

I've had 2 kids at KA - one started Jan 19 (6 months) the next Sept 18 (7 months), just the youngest left there now and he is in pre-school. It is a great nursery, unfortunately, they do seem to have an issue with staff turnover and keeping a manager in post - although they are still very professional and my child runs in every day and doesn't want to leave at the end so they are doing something right. If we've ever had an issue, they address it quickly and take it seriously (not that there has been any big issues). The food is amazing - no sausage and chips here - food from all over the world. Focus on personal care and self-care.

My daughter has recently started here and she has settled so well and so quickly. She is trying all new different foods there that she won't try at home. The updates that you get throughout the day on the app are great and very reassuring. All the ladies are great in the room all very friendly. My daughter seems to have clicked with the room leader as she talks about her at home.

My 2 children love it here and have developed so much since joining. Couldn't have asked for a better nursery.

I know that some nurseries never let parents back in after lockdown, but I have always enjoyed collecting my children and getting to know the staff and other children/parents too. You could pop in at any point and see how much fun they’re all having. That is the kind of transparency I want from the people caring for my babies!

Best decision I made sending my daughter here. Friendly and amazing staff. Always updated, app easy to use. Always a clear understanding and nothing is ever any trouble. The place is always tidy and welcoming.

For improvement, I recommend comprehensive training for staff on sensory issues, the creation of a sensory-friendly environment, clearer communication protocols, and empathy training. These steps can contribute to a more inclusive and supportive environment for all children.

My daughter attends Kids Allowed for over six months. Initially, she had some adjustment issues with the new environment, but she changed very quickly. She is very well looked after and now is very comfortable with the staff.

My little boy started at Kids Allowed Stockport at the start of this year for three mornings a week. He was only five-and-a-half months and it’d be an understatement to say I was nervous about the transition for us both. We’ve been blown away by how well he has settled and the range of activities and quality of care in the baby room. He’s very happy. The thing that stands out is every single member of the team really cares and their passion shines through.

I genuinely do not have any negative comments about this nursery, the nursery is absolutely fantastic. My son attended upto Preschool and my daughter is now in woddlers. She has such a beautiful bond with all the staff members she is with.. past and present! You can tell she really loves them and is well looked after! The staff are fantastic. Everyone is always so kind, helpful and accommodating. We have loved our time at Kids Allowed Stockport. The girls take time to provide updates throughout the day and also give a thorough debrief at collection. Thank you so much. Keep up the good work x

We are very happy with the care provided to our daughter. She started nursery when she was 8 months old, initially part time and slowly built up to full time. She is doing amazing and thriving. She is 15 months now and at 7 am she is by the door with her jacket and her shoes to take her to nursery. All the staff is brilliant and I can see she is very comfortable with them. They are very supportive and helped me with managing a few difficulties. I can see my daughter is happy to spend 10 hours per day there and still keep going back the next day or even at weekends. I can’t wish for more. Very happy mum here!

My son has settled in really well at Kids Allowed Stockport. My son has speech delay and the Kids Allowed team have been super supportive in helping develop his speech. He has come on so much since being with Kids Allowed. Thank you so much!

My son attended Kids Allowed Stockport from baby room to pre school before starting reception and my daughter is currently in woddlers. The care every single member of staff have given both children has been incredible. They are always involved in activities and they really try to cater to your child's individual interests. It is so reassuring that you can see your child interacting with the staff and other children during drop off and pick ups as this isn't the case for some nurseries in the area - Kids Allowed clearly are rightfully really proud of the work their staff put in to make the children happy and cared for. The staff always have time for the parents and keep in contact regularly throughout the day. Particularly happy with a member of staff in woddler 3 who has built a close bond with my little girl and makes her so happy to go to nursery! Also, love the levels of security - door code plus biometric entry as well as staff that actually get to know all parents and carers! Would recommend to all!

My daughter has been at this nursery since 1 (is now 3 and a half). In each room we have felt she has been very well looked after, fed brilliant food and has had fun! We particularly liked the layout of the building, when she was a baby in particular and felt it was safer than in some smaller nurseries. She made excellent progress and she has taken part in a wide range of activities including things like listening walks and meeting bugs that the bug lady brought in for them. They get them outside in the gardens as much as possible and keep them active. The phonics work she has done with the teacher in the class has inspired her and she thoroughly enjoys learning. When she has had any little bumps or they have been at all concerned about anything they have phoned straight away. She had strange rashes for a while and they kept an eye on them and took photos of them changing for me. The staff and manager are excellent, listen and act on concerns and ideas and are extremely open to discussion.

I have two children at Kids Allowed. One in preschool, who has progressed throughout the nursery, and another in babies, who started approx 1 month ago. Both children love nursery and have both developed significantly. The staff there go above and beyond to create relationships with both children and couldn't ask for better people to be around my children.
