Review from Joanne S (Mother of Child) published on 16 June 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Kids Allowed is somewhat of an unsung hero. Aside from the mandatory elements you'd expect from any childcare provision - Kids Allowed goes the extra mile. Their approach to busy working mums is second to none, from child haircuts on site, holiday clubs for older school siblings, dry cleaning drop off, babysitting and the utmost understanding if you are stuck in traffic is amazing. I would highly recommend them, they are worth every penny. My youngest son has developed at a rate of knots and he genuinely loves his three-days-a-week there. The team are fabulous - end of day reports, taking the time to know you and your child, professional, friendly, attentive....

Overall Experience
We love this nursery. The staff at nursery have helped him so much with his development.
The reception staff know his name and are always there with a welcoming smile and wave. He is so happy here. It is reassuring to know that my child loves nursery and that he's safe and learning lots too.
The handover we get at the end of the day is amazing, i know exactly what he's eaten and what he's got up to during the day. The food always sounds delicious, I know he's had good healthy meals every day. His class always seem to go on lots of adventures and get out and about, it's great!!
I love that the staff really seem to care about the children and have valuable connections with each of them.
My son loves the fruit platter at the end of the day, I think it's a lovely idea. Oh and also the coffee in the morning is a winner with me!

Overall, let's just say I'm one proud mummy, and kids allowed have a lot to do with helping my child grow into a wonderful little man ???? Thank you.

Review from Rebecca (Mother of Child) published on 16 June 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Returning to work is hard for any new mum, but the staff made it a lot easier. They dealt with my "sleep deprived mum of small baby worrying far too much and asking stupid questions" questions really well - they reassured me with every query I could think of and made me feel really happy and positive about our child care choice.
The settle in sessions were great and the information we were provided with contained answers to questions even I had not thought of.
There are a lot of little extras that make life easier, from the helpful reception team, the cups of tea and the storage room to leave the pram, right through to the day bags provided (which we use at weekends too!). We love the flexibility of the early and late drop off if needed and have been able to swap days around when grandparents have needed to swap their day.
Thoughtful handmade gifts, laminated photos and occasion cards have added to the personal service provided.

So happy with our choice of childcare provider.

Overall Experience

We love kids allowed! My daughter was extremely shy, until she went to nursery. Where, thanks to the staff at kids allowed Stockport, she has become so confident and so clever. I really believe, that she is much more advanced than other children her age (who don't attend) and that is all due to this nursery! We couldn't thank them enough.

My son is very happy here. There is a huge variety in activities and learning opportunities. The staff help the children make gifts for Mother's Day, Father's Day and Christmas. The free tea and coffee is great. The staff are really skilled at what they do and are warm, welcoming and approachable. I would highly recommend kids allowed Stockport.

Review from Patrick H (Father of Child) published on 16 June 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Stockport Kids Allowed is a fantastic nursery. Our son has been going since he was 4 months old and the level of care and quality of staff has always been excellent.
As well as being friendly and approachable the staff are fantastic with all of the children. There is a genuine feel of an extended family as soon as you enter then building.

There is a clear effort to encourage development and this is communicated efficiently to us as parents.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Kids Allowed for a few years now, I cannot recommend them enough. Every room she has moved up through has just got better and better along with her key workers. She loves going and doesn't stop talking about everyone there. The care and attention they pay to them is fab and it shows in how she communicates with people and how advanced she is.

Review from Carrie-Anne T (Mother of Child) published on 16 June 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been going to kids allowed since he was 7 months when it first opened. He is now nearly 3 years and I couldn't be happier with the care they have shown us as a family. He is very confident and happy. The variety of activities, fantastic menu, wonderful nursery nurses and trips out enable me to go to work confident that my son is well cared for and given a variety of stimulating, messy fun activities to fill his day. Highly recommended.

Overall Experience

My little boy is so happy at Kids Allowed Stockport, he never wants to come home when I pick him up. He has formed lovely friendships and has a great bond with his key worker. The staff are always so pleasant and welcoming. It's the little things that make a difference for example the staff always say good morning when you walk in the building and they all know my little boy's name.

Overall Experience

Kids Allowed is an excellent nursery my son looks forward to his time there. The staff are well trained. A major plus point is the extra curriculum activities regular trips to the parks, museums, train stations, watching aeroplanes have been very exciting for my son. Also educational nature and town walks help in his development. Academic teaching i.e alphabet, numbers can be improved upon, though I accept it's not school. Overall, my son has flourished at this nursery.

Review from Nic (Mother of Child) published on 4 December 2015 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Excellent nursery, facilities are great. Staff attentive, well trained. Excellent policies re swaps and early drop offs.

Only criticism is staff tend to move/swap rooms a lot, this is possibly due to it being a fairly new nursery and staff moved to the centre when it was being set up and now it is more established moving back to previous roles.

Reply from Jennie, at Kids Planet Stockport

Thanks for your lovely feedback. And yes, we have opened up new rooms as the new centre has grown and colleagues have split off into them. Remarkably we had 0% team turnover in the first 12 months which is amazing. (but quite a few team members as we grow) As you say the team are great and really make the experience for the children.

Review from Miriam (Mother of Child) published on 9 October 2015 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Excellent nursery with excellent staff. Everyone has been so lovely and helpful, putting my first and only child into nursery was a very anxious time for me - but within her first few days all of my anxieties were rested. Staff are always smiling, friendly and happy to help, even staff from other rooms make the effort to learn all of the childrens names. When I picked him up it was clear he was having a wonderful time. I'd just like to thank all the staff at Stockport KA.

Overall Experience

My son attended KA from June 14 -Sept 15. Everyone from receptionist to nursery nurses took the time to ensure I felt at ease, they all made my boys experience an educational and enjoyable one.

I also used the holiday club which was worth every penny.

I have 3 boys and have used many nurseries KA Stockport is most definitely the best.

I have been so happy with Kids Allowed. I have constantly felt my children are striving in a safe, fun, stimulating, progressive and learning environment. Fantastic staff and centre!! As my boys are graduating soon I would like to give special recognition to all the prep school staff for meeting needs of my boys throughout the two years. The reception staff are fantastic - always so helpful and friendly. Thanks to you all.
