recommend.

All the staff go above and beyond for my son. He loves everyone there. The staff have worked with me to get control over his intolerances and allergies and I couldn't thank them enough.

My little boy is going up to reception this year. The nursery has been brilliant in making sure he is ready but also supporting me and making sure I am ok with the transition.

Our daughter started full time in January 2025 and has had an amazing experience every day since. We viewed a number of nurseries in the area and either struggled for the full time space and/or we had one or more negatives to contend with. Kids planet thornton was the complete opposite of that from
the very first open day we attended. The staff were all so welcoming and attentive that I signed the joining paperwork as soon as we got home.
The staff are all really engaging with the children and they have a great range of meals and activities. Would recommend to anyone, especially anyone who's child might not be used to being around other children and people every day.

My Daughter has been at this nursery now for over 2 and half years and we have never had an issue to report on or to bring up to any of the staff members which I think is amazing, that is just our personal experience. We feel like our daughter is cared for and loved by all members of staff and we
are always fully informed of her progress and anything she may of struggled with. She always eats well at nursery and has a variety of different meals each week which she seems to enjoy.

An amazing nursery with the most kind and caring staff.
My daughter left here a couple of years ago and there wasn't any doubt about where I would send my son when he started 6 months ago.
The staff have alway been so welcoming and you can see instantly how happy they make the children.
My
sons has allergies and the staff have done all they can to reassure me and that means I can go to work and know my son is safe, happy and well looked after.
The amount of activities that the children do is fantastic and you can see how much love and care is put into everything by all that work there.
There is an amazing variety of meals cooked that both my children have enjoyed.
The nursery is clean and tidy and every room is child friendly and a home away from home.
I would 100% recommend Kids Planet Thornton to anyone who is looking for a nursery.

Brilliant staff and nursery. So happy with the care my girls receive. I can go to work not worrying about their care. Very child centered and holistic care. Both girls are totally and different and both are looked after well. lots of activities. Everything included in the price really helps. Amazing
staff.

I couldn't have chosen a better nursery to look after my child. They have welcomed us as a family with warm and undivided help towards us as a family.
We couldn't recommend them enough.

Amazing nursery with wonderful, caring staff. The development of our twins since attending nursery has been amazing. They are so much more confident and their social skills have improved immeasurably.

Both of my boys attend Kids Planet Thornton and have done since they were babies, in that time I have never had a single issue or complaint. I honestly cannot recommend this nursery enough- it's brilliant. I have been into a lot of nursery settings within my work and it really was a no-brainer when
deciding on where I would send my children. Even since moving out of the area I would rather add significant time onto my commute than move them anywhere else. The staff are incredible- helpful, friendly and very professional. The care my boys recieve is second to none. Communication is fab, we are updated regularly throughout the day via the parents app which I absolutely love - I can see everything they're up to and how happy they are when doing it. In short, the nursery is run to an extremely high standard, with amazing competent staff and my children love it- what more can you ask for!

My eldest son attended this nursery under the old ownership and we loved it. Although they have been taken over, the staff are still the same and is run to the same high standards with added extras and benefits of updates throughout. Our youngest now attends and has settled almost immediately. I
drop him off knowing he's receiving the best care with wonderful people. I'd recommend this nursery to anyone.

Very pleasant nursery. Always 'on it' with my child; she is always stimulated, and they stick to her routine that I do with her at home. The equipment and environment are fitting for her age bracket. Staff are friendly and welcoming and always willing to listen and engage with what I advise, suggest
and ask.

Little Nutkins have been an excellent nursery for my baby girl. All of the girls have been fantastic and they make me feel at ease and have helped me every step of the way. The staff have helped wean my daughter as I was nervous and scared of her choking. All staff are always smiling and welcoming.
I always have a detailed hand over every night. I would not have her attending another setting.

This nursery has been a second home to both my boys, one who is still there, and I couldn't recommend them enough. They have been, and still are, our extended family. They know the children as well as family members do, and take great care to raise them and support them with us. We will be so upset
this summer when our youngest leaves to start school, and it's because the staff at Little Nutkins have been outstanding. They've supported us as parents, used our cloth nappies, encouraged our boys to grow and become independent, and given lots of hugs when needed.

Very good nursery my son really likes going and talks about the staff at home. The meals are excellent and just the best nursery for accommodating for his dairy-free diet. My son loved the outdoor area when we came to look around. The nursery also helped to have the grant hours spread how I
preferred them.

My daughter is always excited to go to nursery and adores the staff! The nursery is always kept very clean and has a very positive atmosphere. My daughter is a vegetarian and she is always provided with a variety of meals that she enjoys. Leagues above any other nursery we considered, so happy she
ended up here! We have a happy, clever and confident child.

I have felt extremely comfortable and happy in sending my child to the nursery. She has attended since being 6-months-old and leaves for school this time. I have never had any complaints in regards to anything. The staff do a great job and are fantastic with the children. I would recommend the
nursery to anyone.

I just can’t recommend Little Nutkins enough. This nursery and it’s management has really shown it’s true worth throughout this COVID pandemic. As two front line shift workers, they have been nothing but flexible and shown us and our children great care. We wouldn’t have been able to work if it
hadn’t been for management being so responsive to our needs. All the time, staff have kept our children as safe as possible and kept them in a routine, with an array of fun activities.
We really do consider the staff at Little Nutkins as part of our family. The children have fantastic relationships with them and are so happy going to nursery. To see our 1-year-old point and kick her legs with excitement when she sees her key worker is all a mum really needs to see to know she has made the absolutely right choice in childcare!
