Our son has been well-fed and loves his nursery food!
He's come on so much with his speech and development and we are so pleased we sent him here. The staff are so nurturing and have a great rapport with the kids. Thanks so much for looking after him so well for us! We will miss you.
My little boy has attended this nursery since 1yrs old and is now almost 5 getting ready for the “big school”. He loves talking about Kids Planet, his “teachers” and his friends. My husband and I are so pleased with all the support and care we have been offered throughout the years. Staff have been so lovely and supportive at all times (including kitchen and maintenance staff), and the management team is always very prompt, helpful, and accommodating. We highly recommend this nursery and have been to our friends and neighbors. And even our little boy would talk about his nursery to our family and friends. And his honest and humble opinion is the one that matters the most. Thank you to all the staff for your daily support and care!
The only negative I would say is that the app is not always updated with what my son has to eat throughout the day. I do forget to open it sometimes but when I do it’s not always filled in.
Can't recommend this nursery enough. Having my first child attending there was no need to consider another nursery for my 2nd who started in September 2023. They have helped her settle in and she absolutely loves going. My firstborn is still there and absolutely loves it too, both kids have so much fun. I appreciate the regular updates via the App but also staff really get to know each child and support them. Having had a revamp the decor is great and very appealing to children. The nursery is always clean and the staff really do keep on top of this the minimise the risk of spreading the germs kids seem to love to spread. No doubt this is the best nursery.
This is, without a doubt, the best place we could have chosen to send our little girl. She has been at the nursery since she was 10 months old. Now, at 2 years, she is absolutely thriving. Every single member of staff at the nursery definitely puts the children at the heart of everything they do. I truly believe some of the best key workers are there and there have been hardly any changes in staff since she started. She has had the same keyworker since the beginning and she absolutely loves her. The key worker knows her so well. The nursery manager is extremely approachable and always tries her best to accommodate any requests. She knows all the children and their parents very well. Our eldest daughter attended a different nursery and there is no comparison to this. As parents you put a lot of trust into nursery settings and this is absolutely one I would recommend. If we were to have more children in future, Kids Planet Whiston would be our first choice setting for them.
The meals provided are great. All are homecooked by the chef onsite and the kids love them.
The nursery itself is spotless! Every time I collect my children im always seeing staff cleaning or brushing up to keep on top of things.
Everyone is always so happy and friendly, stopping to chat. Handovers on the collection are thorough and detailed and info on the app throughout the day is always logged on time!
My children absolutely love it here! They settled so well so quickly!
I would 100% recommend this nursery to anyone!
We couldn’t recommend Kids Planet Whiston any more. They go above and beyond for our child and we are so happy we chose this nursery. All of the staff are amazing, friendly and have taken the time to settle our child whenever he has arrived upset.
Can’t rate this nursery enough, it’s immaculate! Friendly staff and a warming inviting environment for my little one! My two boys have now attended this nursery 6 years apart and I wouldn’t have wanted them to attend anywhere else but here! The girls have looked after both of my boys. Management have always been helpful and accommodating and totally transformed the nursery to the perfect little nest for the children to thrive. Love it!
Thank you for wonderful review, we'll be sure to pass on your lovely feedback
My daughter is leaving in August to go to primary school and I’m actually heartbroken!
She absolutely loves Kids Planet Whiston!
All the staff are amazing! They always go above and beyond! I can’t recommend the nursery enough! Fabulous staff who have become friends over the years.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, we hope your little one enjoys their next chapter at school!
We are so happy to have chosen this nursery for our little girl. There has never been a day that she’s not been excited to go in - indeed we have felt guilty taking her away on holiday as she loves it so much. Staff are so kind and nurturing and I go about my day at work without any concern for her safety or happiness.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are so happy to hear your little one loves going into nursery every day!
Our little boy loves Kids Planet Whiston! Thanks to all the team!
We're so glad your little one enjoys nursery so much! Thank you for your lovely review.
Care has always been of a high standard, never had any issues, staff are approachable and caring and my son has always been happy in the setting. There is very good management oversight and lots of opportunities to learn new skills
We're so glad to hear your little one is so happy at nursery. Thank you for your lovely feedback.
Kids Planet Whiston is an amazing nursery. My son has been attending for 2 years and has loved it from day one. Every single member of staff is so friendly, warm and child focused. I have always felt comfortable leaving my son, knowing that he will be well looked after. The staff really care about the children as well as being professional and knowledgeable. The nursery itself is always very clean and the outside space is great and is well used. I know my son will always get lots of fresh air when the weather allows. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone.
We're so glad your little one is enjoying nursery! Thank you for your wonderful feedback.
Such an amazing nursery! I have been blown away by the team at the Kids Planet Whiston branch. My little boy is quite sensitive and shy in new situations and he has been made comfortable and bonded well with the girls in the baby room from day one. I always get a fab, detailed handover when he is picked up too, which I love. I also love the updates we receive on the app which gives us an insight into the nursery. My little boy is now very happy and gets excited when he sees his key worker on his nursery days. I have recommended this nursery to all of my friends and cannot say enough positive things about it. Thank you girls for making it such a pleasant experience for us both so far.
We're so glad to hear your little one has settled in so well. Thank you for your lovely feedback!
I never have a negative word to say about the nursery or the staff. They are absolutely amazing and go above and beyond for any parent and all the children even if that child isn’t in their care. They are more than carers each and every one of them. If there is ever a query or an issue, the manager or the girls go out of their way to make sure it’s resolved and nothing is a problem to them. They are so hard working, attentive and just so lovely. My son has been cared for by the staff since he was 6 months old, and has thrived with his development, learning and confidence thanks to the care and attention they pay to all children as a group or individually. I am forever grateful for finding this nursery for my son and I wouldn’t change it for the world. Thank you all of you.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are so happy to hear your little one is thriving at nursery!
When we decided our daughter was ready to start nursery, we looked at a number of them in the area. Kids Planet Whiston was by far our favourite. The nursery is always clean and organised well. The staff give 100% to each child. My daughter loves her time in the nursery and often skips in. She has a very good relationship with her key worker, who updates me and dad thoroughly about new things she is learning. I would recommend Kids Planet to anybody. Don’t hesitate; you won’t be disappointed.
My daughter went to Waverton Cottage for three years and as she finished, my little boy just started last month. My daughter had an amazing three years so there was no hesitation at all when it came to choosing my son's nursery! The staff are all so friendly, approachable and above all caring. I am so confident that my little boy is having the best experience and the best care at Waverton Cottage, giving him the best start to his socialising and education. Thank you to everyone at Waverton Cottage!
Waverton Cottage is outstanding! I honestly only have good things to say. My daughter has blossomed in her development, learning, and self-confidence. The staff genuinely care about the children and parents. This is much more than childcare, it’s a setting where children thrive and learn. My daughter has been at Waverton Cottage since she was aged 10 months and she is due to leave for school very soon. I cannot recommend this nursery enough!
