Knowing my daughter is in a nursery where the staff genuinely care about her wellbeing and development is amazing. We are kept up to date with the activities and development assessments on a regular basis and are supported with any milestones e.g. potty training.

Both my girls are here, one since September 25 and one since March 24 and absolutely love it. They're accommodating with my youngests allergy. My oldest recently moved rooms and absolutely loves it, she's come along quickly since going up. Any issues, management have quickly resolved and helped where
possible with the tax code things.
Outside work is great, oldest loves sitting round the fire and taking part in outdoor activities with her friends. Overall im very glad my girls are here.

If I could give more stars I would! I highly recommend KP North Wingfield! When my first son started here he struggled with his speaking as he was a Covid child, I explained this to the staff and they helped him so much with his speaking. He absolutely loved coming here, he would run through tbe doors
to the staff. Sadly he left to start school and he was really upset leaving as he had made great bonds with staff. Now my 2nd son attends and he started when he was 9 months old due to the new funded hours. We took him for an open day and from then he loved it! The staff are still absolutely incredible! The rooms are welcoming and exciting! With lots of different stations, from imaginary play to construction. The meals are also great! Lots of different meals, which my sons eats all of them! My son used to get a little upset when leaving him but within 5 minutes of me leaving he was smiling and playing. Even now when I go back with my eldest son they always make time to speak to him!

Our little girl has been in the baby room here since 9 months old. We go to work knowing she is receiving the best care and attention. She loves the baby room and all of the staff there, we will be sad when she has to move rooms but know she will continue to thrive.


Our daughter has a milk allergy

and the staff are so careful when catering for her. She has such wonderful healthy meals.


We would highly recommend this nursery to anyone with a little one needing to find childcare on the return to work.

My little girl is currently in the preschool room and has attended since she was 10 months old.
The staff have formed some amazing bonds with my daughter, they have helped her work through her extreme shyness and worked hard to make drop offs as pleasant as they can be.
Outdoor play and trips out
have always been a winner with my daughter and I'm happy they do these activities regularly.

I sent my eldest son to this nursery 4 years, he had nothing but the best experience. I was so pleased with the care and support from the girls that I have now sent my youngest son, he has been going for 10 months and he loves going. The girls in the baby room are incredible with him, they send constant
updates and are amazing with him, he always has the best day and is very well cared for!

My little girl has been attending kids planet since she was 2 and she's loved every single day she's been. All the girls are amazing that work there and so caring. Willows come on so much with her speech and learning since she's been there. Sophie runs the nursery so well and the girls couldn't do enough
for you or your child. The food options are always great giving them chance to try new meals, and they try and play outside as much as possible so the children always have plenty of fresh air. Willow is always coming home telling me stories about what they've been making, reading or playing through out the day, so they are getting to learn so much. Highly recommend

Absolutely wonderful nursery. The staff are very attentive, patient and helpful. My son has a speech delay, his keyworker and all the staff in his room have been amazing at following the strategies suggested by our therapist and really taking an interest in his progress. They have even learnt a few
words of cantonese to help with his recognition of significant family members! Nothing is too much trouble and they celebrate his successes as much as we do!

I have had two children attend kids planet north wingfield, and soon my third child will be starting in January, the kids plant staff are very attentive and so easy to get a long with, my children have absolutely loved the time they have spent at nursery, the support they have given my child who is
currently still in nursery has been amazing and have been so helpful supporting me on things I can do at home to help my child as well. I have never had any issues and when it comes to home time my children never wants to leave. Would absolutely recommend this nursery to any parent. The activities and supplies/toys the nursery have for the children is amazing and really helps to bring out the children's character and they have so many different things to choose from to play with.

My little boy started in the baby room at 9 months, and has been through the toddler room, and just started in pre-school where he will be for the next 2 years.
He absolutely has the best experiences that I just couldn't give him with working full time. He feels so at home and connected there and the
staff are so lovely, its like his home from home.
I visited four local nurseries before this one and as soon as I went in, I knew this was the one. I'd encourage anyone to send their child there with full peace of mind that they'll be safe, cared for, and helped to grow into the best version of themselves xxx

Both my children have attended this Nursery since January 2025 at ages 2 and 1. It has been amazing to see how much they have developed in the time! My 2 year old was pretty much non-verbal when he started and now can put together full sentences thanks to the help of the nursery staff!


The nursery

is very clean and calming. Always have relaxing music playing in the background. They are very good with allergies and can accommodate to the children's allergy needs with different coloured mats at meal times and on the boards in the classrooms with what children have allergies in that day.


They make care plans with the parents to ensure all the children's needs to met and to help with the children developmentally.


There is clear communication from the nursery through the app, which is updated with pictures of what the children have been up to that day, mealtimes and what they've and also includes special days for the month ahead had, if they've had a nap or been toileted/changed.

My son has been attending since he was 9 months and is now 2 years 3 months. Since starting he has developed massively and this is all down to the hard work that all the staff put in. He loves each and everyday that he attends. He has made a lovely group of friends and really likes all the staff that
look after him, he has recently joined the toddler room and has fitted in really well. He loves all the activities they offer him and loves everything about the nursery Thankyou :-)

My son absolutely loves going to nursery & his development has come on leaps and bounds since joining. His speech is incredible for his age and he is learning so much. He's recently moved into the pre-school room and is having so much fun learning & developing his skills further. All the staff at Kids
Planet North Wingfield are caring, nurturing & loving towards all the children. We are very grateful for them & when my daughter is born she will also be attending

My little girl has been at Kids Planet since 2023 when she was 10 months old. She has had nothing but the best experience since starting and has just moved into the pre-school room. The staff in the toddler room were absolutely incredible and we were sad for her to move rooms. However, she's been in
preschool for 3 weeks now and she is thriving in there too. My little boy is due to start in November and I know he'll have a brilliant experience too.

The care and attention to supporting our daughter's development has been fantastic. Each room is set up really well, her development since joining the nursery is fantastic, her confidence has grown so much and all the staff encourage the children constantly. We couldn't have picked a better nursery
for her, so much so we've our son joining in the next few months too. Although sad she'll soon move onto school, we're so grateful for the care and support given to allow her to thrive as she continues learn. A special thank you to all the staff, they truly are amazing.

Forgot to pick up my kids school photos, and a particular staff member brought them to my house on the last day of ordering so I wouldn't miss out. I don't know any other nursery that committed to the children. My son has been in this nursery since he was 8 months old, he's now 4 and a half, and I've
always been impressed with how they much they care about my son. Would definitely recommend to all parents.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.965)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.965) out of 10 for Kids Planet North Wingfield is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.965 for Kids Planet North Wingfield is calculated as follows: ( (278 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 288 Ratings = 4.965
  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 North Wingfield is based on 24 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 24 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.
