Review from Sabrina L (Mother of Child) published on 8 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This nursery is outstanding. The level of care that is input into each and every child is second to none. They provide excellent learning/play environments, top-class catering for all dietary requirements and have handled the current pandemic with everyone's safety at the front of their minds. I was very apprehensive when the franchise was sold on, the communications from the franchise were quite poor and did not fill me with any confidence. However, this does not reflect on the management of the nursery whatsoever.

Reply from Joshua Himsworth, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thank you for your outstanding feedback! From the childcare team to the kitchen team, everyone works immensely hard to make sure they care for each individual child respectively. I am very happy to hear how well families have been cared for throughout the pandemic. Thank you again.

My child has been attending at Kids Allowed for the last year and she absolutely loves it! Everyone is so nice and welcoming, and each day is filled with different activities. The menu is varied, and she enjoys everything on it! We would highly recommend Kids Allowed.

Thank you for your amazing feedback! I am so happy to hear that over the past year your little one has been loving the Kids Allowed experience. I will pass your comments to the kitchen and childcare team. Thank you again.

Lovely staff; helped my little one with talking and social skills. My son has come on so much since starting last year. After viewing a few nurseries in the area, this one won by miles due to cleanliness and how happy the kids looked when visiting.

Reply from Joshua Himsworth, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thank you for your lovely feedback! I am so pleased that your little one has been advancing in their communication and social skills with support from the team. The housekeeping and maintenance team work very hard ensuring the centre is clean, safe and inspiring for all children and families. Thank you again.

Overall Experience

My daughter started in September 2020. In a matter of weeks of being there; she has learnt so much, and she is now blossoming into a very clever little girl. All the staff are brilliant at handling her medical care and food allergy needs, this is an outstanding nursey, and I would recommend to anyone who is thinking about sending their child to this nursery.

Reply from Joshua Himsworth, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thank you for your amazing feedback! I am so happy that even in a short space of time your little one has been learning so much. I will certainly pass your feedback to the childcare team. Thank you again.

Review from Carly H (Mother of Child) published on 21 August 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This review is long overdue. My son is leaving after three and a half years most of which was full time. We've had a great experience from start to finish and we'll be sad to say goodbye. Many of the team have been there all along the way as he's moved from babies to prep school. They all work hard to make the nursery a warm and welcoming place to come to every day. There are loads of fun activities going on and he's been on some great trips. We love hearing about what he's been up to and it's made our life as working parents so much easier. I have a happy confident boy who is ready to start school thanks to his time there. I should also mention that he loves the food even though he's a fussy eater at home.

Reply from Claire Hall, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thank you Carly, It is so lovely to read your feedback. I will pass it on to the team. Good luck with school and don't forget to email a picture in his uniform. Claire

Review from Jessica B (Mother of Child) published on 23 May 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter joined Kids Allowed in the baby room at 11 months old. From the minute I stepped through the door, any doubts I had about leaving my daughter in full-time daycare disappeared.

The staff are all exceptionally caring and attentive and do all they can to care for and develop your child and also provide them with an extremely fun and activity-filled day! The staff in both the Baby and Woddler rooms are some of the loveliest people I could hope for my little one to be cared for and influenced by every day.

I can't recommend this nursery enough, besides the exceptional care, great menu and snacks (fruit on the way out at the end of the day!), this nursery has all the added extras from babysitting service to holiday and BH swaps so you never miss out on a days fees!

Having read a lot about the nursery and it's founders' reason for creating a nursery that makes working parents feel at ease, it certainly lives up to its ethos and the staff are by far the shining stars!

Reply from Claire Hall, at Kids Planet Stockport

Hi Jessica, Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. The team will be so happy to read this. Your daughter is doing so well with us and it's a delight to know you are so happy, as is she. Thanks, Claire.

My child loves coming to Kids Allowed holiday club. He is always excited for the activities they have on offer. I really like how he can play inside or outside and make his own choices.

Review from C R (Mother of Child) published on 25 April 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I've always had the best experience with Kids Allowed. From the reception area, security of the site, to the feedback I receive at the end of the day regarding my child. My daughter is always happy when I drop her off, to when I pick her up every day. I constantly pass on my feedback to my friends and family. Kids Allowed is by far the best nursery in the North West.

Reply from Claire Hall, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thank you so much, it's so lovely to read your feedback. I love chatting to your little one, she is always having such a fab time in her room. Thanks.

Review from Kirsten S (Mother of Child) published on 18 April 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son has attended since being less than a year old, he is now 4. The standard of care is exceptional. The staff are enthusiastic and knowledgeable and all activities are age-appropriate and relevant and all help my son gain new skills and broaden his learning abilities. My son was referred to the SEN department and an action plan was made to meet his needs individually and the support we have had as a family has helped a great deal for managing his problems areas. So thankful for a truly fantastic team.

Reply from Claire Hall, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thank you Kirsten for the lovely feedback. It's so rewarding knowing that you feel this way about Kids Allowed. We love getting the children prepared for their next milestones and school is going to be an exciting time. Thank you.

Review from Ben L (Father of Child) published on 16 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We have sent our second child to Kids Allowed, having had an excellent experience with the first, even though it means travelling a little further.
Staff are fantastic, always very polite and enthusiastic and seem to form genuine bonds with all the children.
The children are kept busy from start to finish and all activities carefully age appropriate.
The food is varied and of an excellent standard.
The children play outside as much as possible in safe environments with lots of toys to go round.
The children seem to interact very well with each and form early friendships.
Feedback is very detailed and staff always have time to discuss the day or your child more generally.

Price is on the high side.

Reply from Claire Hall, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thank you for the kind feedback Ben. I’m so glad your experience the second time is as good as the first.

Review from Gen F (Mother of Child) published on 7 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Exceptional child care. A consistently high standard of care. Staff have a caring, nurturing approach and are receptive to children's individual needs. Children are engaged in exciting, stimulating activities each day, the staff team have a fabulous energy and an enthusiastic approach.
Feedback is excellent, parents are made to feel a part of their children's nursery lives.
Flexible approach if working shift patterns or self-employed - KA allows swaps, extra sessions. This has provided me with the flexibility to set up my own business whilst my child has attended this centre.
I am very particular about who I leave my children with, yet have parted from them each day, knowing that they were in safe hands.
I have a 7-year gap between my children and can honestly say that the high quality of care has remained the same as this company has expanded.

It's an 'outstanding' from me!

Reply from Claire Hall, at Kids Planet Stockport

This is a lovely review thank you, we wish her good luck at school and hope she stays in touch with all her KA friends.

Review from Kerry S (Mother of Child) published on 7 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has attended Kids Allowed since she was one. We were a little nervous about leaving her initially as she was born at 26 weeks and was very poorly when she was a baby. So we were a little more protective than you normally would be when your child starts nursery and she was full-time Monday to Friday. From day one, the nursery and all the staff have been amazing. I can honestly say she has loved the time spent there and has developed great bonds with all her key workers. The facilities are excellent and the people are so dedicated to ensuring the children are happy, that there hasn’t been a day where she hasn’t been happy. My daughter is now four and a half and starts school in September. Thank you everyone at Kids Allowed - you are an amazing company and all your staff are a credit to your business. Thank you for looking after our baby girl (big girl now!).

Review from Natalie G (Mother of Child) published on 7 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I could not fault any part of our experience with Kids Allowed. Our baby has grown into such a wonderful and smart little girl and much of the credit is owed to the staff. She has formed such wonderful relationships with both the staff and the children and has had values and confidence instilled in her that will last a lifetime. Thank you so much for your hard work. She is more than ready for the next exciting chapter of her life and I’m both saddened and excited to see her leaving such a fabulous environment.

Thank you, Natalie, it is lovely to read your review. We hope she settles into school and continues to be the social butterfly we know she is.

Overall Experience

The nursery has been very supportive in helping my son with personal care such as teeth brushing and feeding himself. They also help with toilet training when this is needed. The outdoor space is used very well. I just wish it wasn't on the main road with all the traffic fumes. The staff are second to none!

Review from James B (Father of Child) published on 23 August 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Our daughter has been at Kids Allowed Stockport for nearly four years and the experience has been exceptional. Focused learning at an early age was very important to us and Kids Allowed Stockport has enabled our daughter to learn in a friendly, informative and fun way while developing a kind, inquisitive and happy personality. The opportunity to go on regular trips to museums, safari parks, and other fun places has led to many detailed conversations at home with lots of questions. The key to the Kids Allowed Stockport experience is the people who work there...enthusiastic, dedicated and inspirational are only three of the words which describe the people who have played such a significant role in our daughter's Kids Allowed journey over recent years ... 10 out of 10.

Reply from jennie, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thanks for this fabulous review. A 10 out of 10 experience for children and their families is exactly what we set out to do each and every day. The team at Stockport will be thrilled to read your review, thank you for taking the time to write it.

Overall Experience

Kids Allowed Stockport is an outstanding childcare provider. My son absolutely loves it and looks forward to going every day. The range of activities on offer is exceptional and I am extremely happy that he is there. I work full time and to know how settled he is really helps. The staff work with you to address any behavioural issues that arise; a common approach ensures the child has clear boundaries and developmental progress is rapid. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone else.

My daughter is in prep school, she loves it. I love it, the staff are amazing, activities are fab, very varied and promote lots of learning through play and my daughter loves the teaching time with their qualified teacher.
The food is delicious, all prepared in house by the qualified chef.
My daughter is school ready now, writing her name, she knows her phonics and is fab with her numbers.

She is leaving prep school in September but I have already signed her up for before/after school club and holiday club.
