Kids planet have been a really great place for our little boy so far, every member of staff have been so supportive with regards to Leightons referral :) couldn't recommend a better nursery all of the staff are so lovely and genuine and very caring towards all of the children. I love it everytime i come to pick leighton up and i just know he's had an amazing day there :)
Thank you for your lovely review, it is so nice to hear all of your kind words!
My son has always attended kids planet billinge and I'm so happy and pleased with the staff. They are so friendly and caring and make sure I'm kept up to date with everything about my son. At the end of each day they always give me a round up of his day and I love to see the bonds he creates with the staff members and other children
Thank you for your lovely review - we really appreciate it!
Kids planet Billinge nursery, is a great place. I have 2 children there and they love it. After nursery they always have a smile and tell me what they have done that day. I feel that the staff are friendly and supportive, towards my children and others like then.
Thank you so much for your feedback. It is much appreciated :)
We have been super fortunate with the team and key workers that both my children have had over the last 4 years off attending this nursery.
My little one is currently in toddlers and I can honestly say, in recent months especially, it has been transformed into the most charming, magical, exciting, yet tranquil environment... Just what that age group needs! Hand on heart, the toddler team are absolutely incredible!
The recent bonus of use of a KP minibus has opened up even more opportunities for the kids and practitioners. This hugely broadens their enrichment and experiences. We are very grateful for this.
KP Billinge have a wonderful chef, although it would be nice if Kids Planet HQ didn't restrict the menu so much.
The foyer has been designed to be very welcoming with a cute little cosy / reading corner under the stairs.
There are many OUTSTANDING people who work on the premises, some of whom have been KP employees for a long time. They are always welcoming with a smile.
Thank you Michelle for your lovely review, it is nice to hear the recognition towards our team - including our wonderful chef.
Kids planet Billinge is a fantastic nursery! My little girl has come on leaps and bounds. She loves going in to nursery and comes home talking about what she has done in the day and who she has played with.
Thank you for the lovely review Jess - we really appreciate it!
The staff have been fantastic at helping to settle in our twins. We have felt very reassured by them and know theyre in safe hands. Appreciate all the updates they send and how welcoming they have been.
Thank you for your lovely review - we appreciate it!
The staff are always friendly, supportive, and informative, they really look out for the children in their care and take the time to share updates about their day. It's clear how much they care about each child's wellbeing and development.
The nursery provides a fantastic environment filled with fun, engaging, and meaningful experiences. My son absolutely loves coming in each day, and I couldn't be happier with the care and attention he receives.
Thank you for your lovely review - we really appreciate your kind words!
Absolutely amazing nursery! My daughter transferred from a previous setting and I was worried but the staff made me feel so at ease and couldn't do enough for me! My little girl seems very happy here and I love all of the updates I receive!
Thank you for such a lovely review - we are so pleased that you are happy!
We couldn't be happier with our experience at Kids Planet Billinge. The staff are always so friendly, approachable, and understanding - nothing is ever too much trouble. They really take the time to get to know each child, and it shows in the lovely bonds my children have formed with their practitioners and key workers.
It's such a warm, welcoming environment where the children are happy, supported, and encouraged to grow and learn every day. I always feel confident leaving my children knowing they're in such caring hands. Highly recommend!
Ah thank you so much for such a lovely review!
Megan
Absolutely thrilled with our experience at this nursery! From day one, my little one settled in beautifully, thanks to the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are incredibly attentive and genuinely care about each child's well-being, making sure that nothing is too much trouble. It's great to see how much my child loves all the staff and looks forward to attending each day. The nurturing environment and engaging activities have made a significant positive impact. Highly recommend this fantastic nursery!
Thank you so much for your review, it is lovely to read this!
All the staff I can't fault, the H&S, regulations, kitchen staff are absolutely faultless.
Megan is lovely, always greeted with a warmth smile and is going to thrive with her expertise and knowledge with a brilliant team behind her.
The nursery is very welcoming and go above and beyond for our children and nothing is to much trouble. If I could give more than 5 stars I absolutely would, my son has been there since he was 7/8 months old and I can't wait to watch him grow educationally even more with them.
Wow, thank you so much for such a lovely review - you have made us all smile reading that. We appreciate your kind words and recognition!
My child has been going here for 7 months and she has come on leaps and bounds, she enjoys every day and seeing her interact with staff and the other children, building social skills and growing in confidence is amazing to watch. She is well cared for with her dietary needs met. The staff are so friendly and on those days its a little hard to say bye, they offer great reassurance.
Thank you so much for your kind words, we really appreciate such a lovely review.
Cannot fault the nursery at all.
Absolutely brilliant.
What a lovely review - thank you so much from us all.
Megan
From day 1 of our little one starting at kids planet we were all made to feel welcome. It's clear my son enjoys his time at nursery, he goes in with ease which makes it easier for my as a mum. He always comes home happy, smiling and content. They keep us updated about everything. It was a great choice for us, thank you to the team.
Thank you for your super review - we really appreciate it.
Megan
A fantastic nursery. The staff are brilliant and really care about the children. The staff in the Baby Room are great at communicating with us, updating the app with information and photos. Our daughter has settled really well!
Thank you for your lovely review - our baby staff will love reading your kind words!
Megan
Kids Planet is wonderful for our daughter! The thought into the everyday is clear to see - the activities, the food, the trips outside walking in the local area, the events held at the nursery such as stay and plays, Halloween trick or treat nights, meet ups in the park - the list goes on!
As a parent, I feel supported and confident in the welfare of my child.
I have given management a 4/5, only because we have had 2 new managers recently - everything has been very well run in the interim!
Thank you for your reply, It means a lot to get such a lovely review.
Megan.
Lots of events and days out are planned for the children which I find wonderful.
I also feel like my child has come on leaps and bounds with communication and building relationships.
Thank you for your review, it really makes a difference for us!
Megan
I can't thank Kids Planet Billinge enough for the care and support they provide to my little boy, with his additional needs they have gone above and beyond to make sure his days don't differ to anyone else's, whether that's a bit of 1 to 1 time or less time outdoors when needed because it's too much for him. They provide such quality care and friendliness from the management down to the catering staff and always have a smile on their faces no matter what. I couldn't think of a better setting for my child to attend and can't wait for my other little boy to eventually start there.
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review, we really appreciate your kind words!
Megan
KidsPlanet Billinge and all the staff are wonderful and very caring. We always get a hello and goodbye everyday we are in. The staff have a great relationship with the children. I have recently had difficulties with finances and the management team and been so helpful in rectifying the problems very promptly. We are in our final year of nursery and it will be very sad to leave come the summer.
Thank you for leaving us such a lovely review, it means a lot!
Megan
My son is very happy here. He has recently moved into tots where I have seen him progress really well. His speech has come on leaps and bounds and I believe this is due to nursery He has the opportunity to get involved with lots of different activities and has good relationships with his workers. It really says something when I pick him up and drop him off and there's no tears. I'm also happy as a parent with the relationship and communication I have with his key worker
Thank you for leaving us such a fantastic review J!
