A purpose-built nursery offering a stimulating learning environment for babies and children up to the age of five years.

The team of friendly, highly qualified staff aims to support parents in the care and education of their children while following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), enabling children to build positive relationships and progress as individuals in a supportive environment.

Children are cared for in developmental and age-appropriate rooms for babies, infants, toddlers, and pre-schoolers. Staff wait for children to reach certain developmental milestones before moving them through the rooms, rather than doing so according to age.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 3.5 months old, 3 full days per week. Since day one, all the staff have been friendly, helpful and engaging to ensure my daughter is happy and fulfilled at nursery. The activities within the nursery are varied to keep the children engaged such
as singing and dancing, planting, lots of playing both in and outside and tend to let the children play with whatever they would like to do that at time. The staff are very good at listening and following requests from parents such as potty training help, dummies, naps etc. All staff are very respectful and friendly and nothing is too much of an ask. Highly recommend this nursery. My daughter runs in every morning and doesn't want to leave a lot of the time especially without her snack!

My son has been attending Kids Planet Halton for nearly two years now (he's almost 3), and I honestly couldn't be happier with the care, support, and learning he receives there.
From the very beginning, the team have been welcoming, nurturing, and genuinely invested in his development. It's clear how
much he loves going - he runs in happily every morning & cuddles the staff who work in his room.
One of the things I appreciate most is the way they've supported us with SEN. Three staff members in particular were proactive in identifying areas where he needed a little extra help and worked closely with us to make the appropriate referrals. They've communicated with us every step of the way, and their support has been invaluable.
It's such a comfort as a parent to know your child is in a fun setting where they are truly seen, understood, and cared for - and where their individual needs are recognised and supported. Thank you all again for your hard work.

My son has come on leaps and bounds since starting Kids planet Halton .He loves going into nursery and seeing all of his friends and teachers. His nursery teachers are very friendly, caring and helpful. Kids planet Halton give updates regularly and have good communication regarding how my son has been

I would recommend Kids Planet Halton, a wonderful nursery.

My child is thriving at nursery. He loves attending and is always curious as to what is set up for him that day. I love that all activities and learning experiences are based on the children's interests. We have recently been toilet training and the staff have been so supportive, down to giving advice
and reassurance. It's helped a lot! Kids planet have provided my child with those early educational experiences and opportunities that are needed to enable children to develop and grow. Thank you

My son has attended since 8 months old and has always had the best time! The staff are always very welcoming and my son has made lovely bonds with his key worker and the other staff in the room. It makes my day easier knowing he is surrounded by girls who show him nothing but love and to see how much
fun he is having through updates on the app.

I can't recommend this nursery enough and thank them for all the support they have given both our son and our family as a whole since he started attending in 2023. They have supported us with every aspect from his behaviour to his speech and language delay and nothing has ever been too much trouble
for the wonderful staff. Our little girl is starting with the nursery in 2026 and we look forward to her journey here too!

From the moment I stepped into this nursery myself, partner and son felt so welcomed! Since my son started at Kids Planet (he's almost 2) he's grown in confidence and his understanding and communication has flourished. All members of staff are kind and caring and have worked hard to get to know my sons
interests and him as an individual. Communication is really good and I can see what my little boy has been doing during the day. I couldn't wish for a better staff to take care of my little boy.

All three of my children have attended this nursery from 9 months old up until school age! the staff are so friendly and knowledgable and all my children had an amazing nursery journey with kids planet Halton. In each room the staff really got to know them and their independent needs which is really
lovely to see and it really does give you that piece of mind whilst your at work.

They really made the transition of him starting nursery so easy for us, and knowing he would be in great hands made me feel so much more at ease. My son has really come on in terms of his talking

I cannot recommend Kids Planet Halton highly enough! The staff are incredibly caring and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing environment for the children. My child has blossomed since starting here, developing new skills and making friends. The activities are engaging and educational, and I love
how they incorporate play-based learning. Communication with parents is excellent, keeping us informed about our child's progress and daily activities. Overall, it's a fantastic place for young children to learn and grow.

My child has had a great connection with their key childcare worker regularly mentioning her and talking about her fondly. I believe this connection has encouraged my child's development, especially in talking and confidence. The staff genuinely seem to care about and make connections with the children,
creating a safe environment for them to discover new things and grow.

Our little boy loves going to nursery! After being born during lockdown, I think it affected his confidence around 'strangers' but the staff are so brilliant with him, offering cuddles and distraction to get him to join in with activities! I love the app, finding out what he's been up to during the
day and eating, and seeing pictures of activities! My elder daughter attended a different nursery and I much prefer the care and attention at Kids Planet! The staff always have the children outside which they love and my son comes home with lots of happy stories from his day!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 9-month-old Son joined the babies room at the start of September (8 months at the time). From day one he has thrived there and has settled in really well. From when I drop him off to when I pick him up he is still smiling. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and look after my son very well.
We had a couple of hiccups at the start with his eating, I think it was a lot of change and a lot of new foods that may have been a little rich for him, this seemed to set him back a few steps with his weaning but, with help from the staff he seems to be getting on a lot better with his food again. Activity-wise, I get a lot of updates through the app which I love and he is doing a lot of sensory play which from the photos I can tell he really enjoys. They work really hard on helping him with his development and over all I am really happy with the nursery as is my son.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has attended since she was 11 months old. She is now nearly 4 years old and I have been so happy with the care and learning/development provided throughout her time here. My daughter settled easily from day one, which I was so worried about at the time, as up until starting nursery she had
spent nearly all her life with just me and her dad (she was born at the beginning of lockdown). The team working at Kids Planet are brilliant, every child is known, understood and made to feel special. The manager and the deputy manager make the nursery ooze warmth and they ensure there is the right mix of fun and learning in place. There are always events being celebrated and every theme/topic is so considered and delivered brilliantly. It’s just a lovely environment for your child to spend their early years. I feel less ‘mum-guilt’ for being at work, as I know my daughter is having lots of fun and learning lots at the same time. Well done to the manager and the team, you are fabulous!

We definitely made the right choice sending our little boy to this nursery, he is shy and reserved but has come on so much since going to nursery. The staff really helped him settle in and have helped him develop in a number of ways, he can now feed himself very well with cutlery, drink from an open
cup, say lots of new words and is beginning to sing songs. He comes out of nursery happy, with new skills and seems to enjoy his time there. He also enjoys the food, often having second portions! The app is good for updates and basic details about his day. Whilst childcare can be expensive, overall it has been worth every penny to see how our little boy has developed, even socially, over a short period of time. Would recommend this nursery to friends and family!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.933)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.933) out of 10 for Kids Planet Halton 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.933 for Kids Planet Halton is calculated as follows: ( (347 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.933
  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 Halton is based on 31 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 74 number of registered child places is 14.8, which has been reached with 31 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.
