Review from J P (Mother of Child) published on 3 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Outstanding from the minute I attended the open day. The staff were amazing and nothing was ever too much trouble. They reassured me they could fully accommodate my child and his health issues, which gave me great peace of mind.

Since starting, my child has settled in so quickly and is always happy at both drop-off and pick-up. I also receive regular updates throughout the day, which is so reassuring. The staff truly couldn't do more if they tried, and their dedication and care are unmatched. I couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough.

Overall Experience

My son is currently in the baby room at Linden House and about to move up in to the tots room. He has been at the nursery since January when I returned to work after maternity leave and I can honestly say we have been really pleased with our experience at this nursery - he has developed well, in line or ahead of age expectations and we feel fully informed and updated with the app and communications from the staff there. The new manager is very keen to develop and expand upon provisions and experiences for the children there. The meals provided are healthy and nutritious and our son is a great eater with the variety that they provide - he seriously will eat anything haha! Would highly recommend this nursery, I literally only have good things to say. It is always hard leaving your child with anyone else to go back to work and you have to feel fully confident that your child is being looked after well and Linden House gives me that confidence.

Review from O P (Godmother of Child) published on 10 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The staff are amazingly kind, generous and patient. They create a lovely homely environment full of fun and laughter. They all go above and beyond to help you and your child in any way they can and to help your child reach all their developmental milestones.

The nursery is surrounded with warmth, care, fun and play, and a brilliant learning environment.
The nursery offer opportunities for learning through play, interaction with peers, and structured activities.

The setting is lovely with a large garden and brilliant equipment inside and out.

What they have done with the setting, I haven't seen anything so amazing !!

Overall Experience

My son started at the nursery six months ago and settled in beautifully. The staff are all so welcoming and caring. It has been so nice to see my little boy make new friends and build lovely relationships with the staff. They keep us well informed about what he has been up to during the day and we love seeing photos of him getting stuck into a range of great activities!

Overall Experience
My son and daughter both go to linden house and love it. Especially forest school which makes it different to most other nurseries in the area. The staff are fantastic and are all super friendly. My son has struggled slightly with the changes from linden house to kids planet but there have been lots of improvements especially outside.

We just hope forest school will go back to the old site as it's confusing to my son and he misses it!

Review from Victoria M (Mother of Child) published on 28 February 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little girl started Kids Planet Linden House in June 2024. She was 10 months old and had very much been attached to me since she was born. I was looking for a nursery that would nurture and care for her like she was one of their own. I toured every nursery in the area and I got such a lovely, homely warm and welcoming feeling from Linden House.
Linden House have not only supported my little girl to settle into nursery life but also helped me adjust to going back to work and leaving my girl in the care of someone else. I will be forever grateful for the experience I have had. My girl is now in teenies and is so well cared for. She's learnt so much since being at nursery and is growing up so fast.

I have full faith that every member of staff cares for my child and others with their whole heart. Thank you Linden!
