Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Both of our children attend this nursery and we have had a great experience with both of them. We're always impressed with how all the teachers and children know everyone by name, regardless of class. There is a really good variety of fun and educational activities across all rooms and the food menus
are excellent!! The management team are very approachable and accommodating. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to family and friends.

We couldn't be happier with Kids Planet Montessori! Both our daughter and son absolutely love going there, which says everything. They feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home.
The staff are amazing - so caring, attentive, and full of love. It's clear they genuinely care about each child and give
them so much individual attention.
There are always fun activities and lovely surprises, with different events that keep things exciting and engaging for the kids. And even the menu deserves a mention - our children really enjoy the food, which is such a bonus!
We're so grateful to have found such a warm and nurturing place. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a safe, loving, and stimulating environment for their little ones!!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a first time mum, choosing a nursery felt like one of the biggest decisions I've ever had to make. Naturally, I was anxious about leaving my little one in someone else's care, but from the very beginning, the team put my mind at ease.
The staff are incredibly warm, patient, and genuinely caring.
They took the time to get to know my child's personality, routines, and preferences, which made the transition so much smoother than I expected. I really appreciated the regular updates-whether it was photos, messages, or quick chats at pick-up-because it helped me feel connected to my child's day.
The manager Hannah is absolutely incredible and really attentive to an enquiry's
we have had, she has been extremely knowledgeable about different funding options that are available to us which has made the process much smoother and less stressful.
Our key worker Hannah is absolutely amazing! So nurturing and caring and can really see her passion for teaching.
Thank you Sandbach Kids Planet

Kids planet sandbach Montessori is a wonderful nursery. All the staff are fantastic and have the children at heart in everything that they do. My son Samuel is so happy going to nursery and he loves telling me about his day when he gets home. He loves the outside area and they are really good at using
all space as best as they can. The food is outstanding. The level of learning is really fun and engaging. Shout out to Samuels teacher Becky. He adores her and her details on handover and notes on his learning journey really highlights that she is very observant and makes activities fun and engaging. The staff are a close family feel and it's been a pleasure to watch my son develop over the years. It's going to be really hard to say goodbye at the end of this term for school.
Thank you for everything and I really can't recommend this nursery enough.

We've currently got our 3rd child going through Kids Planet (with a 4th due to attend in the next 6 months). Hannah and the team have been absolutely amazing with each of our children. They treat them with just kindness and respect, recognising their little individual personalities, and helping the
children grow into confident independent little people. They always go the extra mile, especially with transition to Primary school and do everything they can to help them settle and be happy in the setting. I really can't praise them enough

My little boy has been attending since September 2025 and he is thriving at nursery.
The staff have really helped him settle in and it's such a personable approach. We love receiving the pictures and updates throughout the day. The outdoor space is great and the chef cooks great meals. It's a small
setting but lovely to be a part of. My little girl starts in September and I'm sure she will love it too!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children have attended this nursery and I have had at least one child attending for the past five years. I can truly say we have had a wonderful experience, the staff really care for my children as though they were their own. The Montessori roots have taught both my children independence, from
simple things like how to put on shoes or serve a friend food at the table. The food is fantastic with a very varied and interesting menu which changes with the seasons. The nursery keep us informed with everything going on through an app and for anything urgent they call. Although the garden seems smaller than some nurseries, there is a lot of outdoor play in all weather conditions with a focus on gardening, natural play mixed with outdoor equipment. I would recommend the nursery to anyone who wants to give their child a firm grounding and independence from a young age - I have the nursery to thank for that with bit my children!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Couldnt be happier with this nursery, my son started in class 2 and has attended over a year now. Staff are all lovely - caring, attentive and knowledgeable and my son loves them all. Setting is wonderful with a great outdoor area and plenty of engaging activities with enough freedom to let children
follow their own interests. My sons language skills and confidence have developed greatly since being there and i will be really sad when our time comes to move on.
A bonus mention for Denise in the kitchen - the menu is the best ive seen at a nursery and always delicious samples and recipes available for parents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are absolutely delighted with the experience our son has had at Sandbach Montessori. Having been to Steiner school myself, a holistic and child-centred education was at the forefront of what we were looking for when we started looking around. I also work in education myself and want somewhere stimulating
and play-led for his formative years. Our expectations have been surpassed - during his six months so far, he has flourished, and this is down to the hard work and love the staff put in every day. Art, singing, outdoor play, a wide variety of home-cooked foods made by their fabulous chef, a safe and welcoming environment - what more can you ask for? He waits by the door with his bag when it's time to leave and smiles when we arrive. I would love to shout out individuals who have worked closely with him, but I can't identify anyone in a review, so I'll just say - THANK YOU team Class One!

All of the staff at Kids Planet are just brilliant. I moved my little one here almost a year ago and it is the best decision I have ever made. Since joining she has learnt so much and come on in so many wonderful ways. Everyone is lovely, they all make an effort with the children and parents and are
always so welcoming. I can't thank the staff enough for what they do!

Our experience has been amazing all the way through since our son started here in late 2024. He's runs straight in every time we drop him off. The activities they put are a great for learning and we always see how much our son is benefiting from being here. The food is also a massive plus point, it
is so varied, healthy and nutritious. Something you really do not see from other providers.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both our children love attending Kids Planet Sandbach Montesorri, and we love it as parents.
The staff are incredibly kind and caring, and will go out of their way to support children's needs. All the staff across the whole setting know both my children's names and will regularly talk to and about
them on pick up, despite not being in their class. They all take the time to get to know the children so well, and it's lovely to see how they all interact with the children.
All the activities planned throughout the day have learning aims behind them, and they are so varied day to day. They also have regular trips out of nursery to the park or library.
The garden area is amazing, especially the bark area for the older children. They spend a lot of time outside, which we love!
The app is regularly updated throughout the day notifying us of naps, meals, toileting and photos of the activities the children have been up to.
Would 1000% recommend to anyone looking for a nursery!!!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter has been attending nursery since 2023. She's now in preschool, and we couldn't be happier with the care she receives.
The team are consistently warm, friendly, and genuinely caring. It's clear how much attention and thought they put into each child's wellbeing and development. They've
created such a nurturing environment where our daughter feels safe, cared for and listened to.
One thing we particularly appreciate is how much time the children spend outdoors, which my daughter absolutely loves. The staff also do a fantastic job of tailoring activities to the children's individual interests, which keeps them excited and eager to learn. She's constantly coming home with new knowledge and little bits of information she's picked up during the day, which really shows how much they're teaching and inspiring her.
Most importantly, she is very happy at nursery and has made lots of lovely friends. We feel very grateful to have found such a caring place for her.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We've had two daughters go through Sandbach Montessori, including during the transition from another nursery to Kids Planet Montessori, and our experience has been consistently excellent.
The staff have always made our daughters feel warm, welcome, and happy. Drop-offs are tear free, and at collection
they're always beaming, which says everything.
Special shout-out to Hannah, who has progressed from room manager to nursery manager, a fantastic asset who is diligent, professional, and clearly very committed. Also to Denise, the chef, the kids talk about her all the time and love her food.
The back-office team have always been helpful, and every room leader our daughters have had has been exceptional. We've never had any issues and would highly recommend the nursery.

We are so pleased that we chose this nursery for our little one and had no hesitation signing him up after a visit when we found out we were expecting. We visited based on recommendations from friends and always recommend the nursery to others who are looking. The montessori setting has helped our little
boy thrive in the time he has been there. The food they eat is excellent, really varied and full of flavour. They do such lovely activities and go out and about to the shops, library and park. They spend so much time outdoors as well which was very important to us. All of the staff are so lovely and caring with all of the children and never worry about dropping him off. They are also great at communicating whether it is what he has been up to in the day or general events at the nursery.

We moved our son to Kids Planet Sandbach Montessori after he attended a larger nursery and the difference has been incredible. From the very beginning, he settled so quickly, which we truly believe is down to the smaller group sizes and the increased level of adult interaction and care. Since starting,
he has absolutely thrived. We have seen such a huge improvement in his language, his confidence and his enjoyment of nursery. The outdoor space is fantastic. The children have access to it every day, regardless of the weather, which we really value. The staff are all incredibly caring and kind. They take the time to really listen to the children and engage with them and our son always speaks so positively about them all. A special mention to Hannah & Ros. When we moved our son, they were so patient and understanding. They really took the time to ensure he felt comfortable. They truly went above and beyond during what could have been a stressful transition. The best decision to move him!

Both of my children have attended kids planet Sandbach my oldest left in September and my youngest is currently about to start her second year with them.
It is a lovely setting which feels very home like. The Montessori teaching supports the children to be independent while ensuring they always feel
loved. The best think about the nursery is the staff they are all so lovely and caring always putting the children first. The chef Denise is also brilliant and makes the best food for children and adults! They do lovely events throughout the year and it is just a lovely setting!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.976)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.976) out of 10 for Kids Planet Sandbach Montessori 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.976 for Kids Planet Sandbach Montessori is calculated as follows: ( (328 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 336 Ratings = 4.976
  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 Sandbach Montessori is based on 28 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 75 number of registered child places is 15, which has been reached with 28 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.
