Kids Planet Thornton

Two of my children have attended Little Nutkins. Both my boys have loved attending the setting, my eldest daughter tells me she wishes I would have sent her there. The staff are extremely approachable and respectful of parent's wishes at an individual level. The staff know my children and their little personalities, they’ve recognised when my boys have had off days and successfully supported them on those days. I’m always given a handover of my child’s day, what they’ve been offered to eat and anything else they feel is significant. The nursery have been fabulous in the “small things“ that make a difference, for example, my youngest has always been helped to make birthday cards for siblings that don’t attend the nursery, such a lovely touch. The children’s basic needs and skills are always a priority (which I believe is the most important aspect of caring for children): suncream, hats, coats, toileting, pouring their own drink.... things we don’t see as parents. I do regret not sending my eldest.

I am very happy with Little Nutkins and how great they are with my daughter, she's never not wanted to go to nursery and comes home just as happy and content as she was when she went in. I would recommend Little Nutkins to anyone looking for a nursery to send their child.

Leaving our child at a nursery was such a big deal for us and after looking at a different nursery previous to Little Nutkins we were convinced that Nutkins was for our little one. The staff are friendly and great with all the children and have a large variety of activities for all the children. Our child leaves every day with a smile on her face.

My children settled very quickly into Little Nutkins. All the nursery nurses make time to talk to me about the children, and my sons have bonded with their key workers so well I have complete faith in them. One key worker, in particular, is amazing with my boys, I honestly feel like she loves them.

The staff are friendly and welcoming and really make it feel like a home from home.

My daughter leaves Little Nutkins this summer and although I’m totally not ready, she absolutely is! A bright, confident and excited little girl who is very much looking forward to her next chapter at ‘big school’. Thanks to all the dedicated colleagues at Little Nutkins for helping shape her growth and development!

Fabulous nursery setting. My daughter has attended since she was 1 1/2 and has loved her time there. Nothing is too much trouble and she has learnt so much. I am proud to say my daughter attends Little Nutkins Nursery.

Little Nutkins has 100% been the right choice of nursery for my little boy. The staff work so hard and are so kind to the children. The setting is bright and friendly and I feel that the balance is great between free play and more structured learning.

Such a warm welcoming environment. All the staff are lovely and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend to anyone looking for good quality childcare.

Excellent nursery with kind and friendly staff who provide a lovely environment for the children to learn and play.

The staff are very friendly and keep us updated with activities and progress via the Tapestry app.

Our little boy loves going to nursery, he has transitioned from the baby unit to the main nursery really well thanks to the support from the staff. Management are responsive to any queries or concerns. I would absolutely recommend the nursery to other parents.

Excellent nursery and pre-school. My eldest has attended from the first time it opened and loves attending twice a week. He is always talking about what he has learnt, his friends and the staff all the time. My youngest now attends also and loves it too. Staff always friendly and accommodating. Overall, a fantastic nursery and pre-school. I know my eldest will be sad to leave in September ready to go to school.

My little boy has been at this nursery for nearly 3 years now. All of the staff are amazing and welcoming. They adore the children they look after. My son thoroughly enjoys his nursery days and doesn’t stop talking about it when he comes home. They are always doing different activities and always have fun and learn lots of different things without realising it. I can’t recommend this nursery enough. I’m sorry he has to leave to go to primary school. We will both miss everyone there.

My 2 boys have attended Little Nutkins. I can’t recommend it enough. The care and love that is given is outstanding. They both have loved their time here and have built amazing relationships with the staff and their friends through outstanding teaching and play. My youngest leaves to start school this year and we are going to miss Little Nutkins immensely.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff that have provided a welcoming environment for both my daughters.

I would recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking for a secure, professional nursery that focuses on learning through a wide variety of activities, along with plenty of messy play and laughter.

My son has attended Little Nutkins from being six months old. Instantly, I felt comfortable with leaving my son there and he has thrived ever since. He loved the girls in the baby unit and now has just moved down to the "big boys and girls". The transition has been perfect and I know that my little boy has an absolute ball whilst at nursery. I am constantly kept updated with pictures on Tapestry so I can see what he's been up too and also the staff always fill you on the day's events. Leaving your child can sometimes be very daunting but the staff here made it easier for me and I cannot thank them enough for that! Fabulous nursery with fabulous staff.

Both of my children attend Little Nutkins Nursery and they both absolutely adore it. They have both grown in confidence and they have also learnt so much during their time there. All of the children who attend this nursery are so happy and all look so comfortable in the home from home surroundings. The staff are all incredible and really care for the children. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to anybody. I'm so pleased my children attend Little Nutkins and are thriving on a daily basis.

My son started at Little Nutkins around the middle of last year and he has progressed so much since attending here. The staff really made him feel welcome and are very friendly and helpful if I have any questions. He really enjoys it and looks forward to going every day! He has made friends and has fun as well as learning. I would defiantly recommend Little Nutkins to any of my friends or family.

I recommended the nursery to my sister and her daughter starts this week too! Thank you to all at Little Nutkins! My daughter is currently singing Peter Rabbit and said “this one's from nursery mummy!”
