Kids Planet Day Nurseries Reviews 

One of your room leaders in one of the Newcastle nursery's needs to be retrained and have a chat with about their attitude. Approached the leader with some concerns to be dismissed and given a lot of attitude. Fingers crossed she doesn’t have any kids as would hate to see how she treats them.

Not a nice nursery. I put my daughter in this nursery and only lasted a month they are only after the money here have to many kids not enough staff. Every time i dropped my daughter off and picked her up and kids were left crying they wasn't comforted. It was always hectic in the room. Teachers looked stressed with the children. My advice from a parent to a parent don't leave your child here.

This company couldn't be any less transparent if it tried.
It's all so fake and manipulative.

I wouldn't recommend this nursery. Staff turnover seems high and no updates are given on children despite asking for these regularly. We forgot to inform the nursery that our child would be away for a couple of days and nobody called to check where she was etc.

If I could give lower I would.

Lack of duty of care, neglect, safeguarding. I wouldn't recommend this nursery to anyone. They don't inform parents of serious issues and conveniently 'no staff' to be able to speak to parents.

Absolutely disgusting and disappointing re how my wife was treated .

As an employee dismissed the day she came back from our holiday.

Bearing in mind her 6 months probation wasn't for another week .

Clearly certain managers need to be trained and understand certain needs etc re the people that work for them .

Great place to work, has a real family feel. Great people always happy to help! The nursery settings are lovely and ran by highly qualified teams. Couldn’t recommend enough have honestly never felt more settled and welcomed into a role.

So disappointed with our experience at Kids Planet Sale, so much that we had to take our son out and put him in an alternative nursery where we had a significantly better experience. Note that Kids Planet Sale is no longer rated outstanding by Ofsted.

Our nursery Shepherd Lodge were acquired by Kids Planet nearly three years ago and it's lovely to see our setting continue to thrive. There are so many qualifications, training and learning opportunities for staff members. We were Udeskole accredited last year and what a lovely journey it has been and continues to be. From making dens and exploring our local areas to campfires and woodwittling. It continues to be a great experience for the staff and children.
We have also had lot of money spent on new resources and enhancing areas of our nursery.

My children attend holiday club here, they love it, they get super excited about the activities, the facilities and the staff it’s such a wonderful experience and a fantastic way for the children to make friends during half term holidays!!
I also sent my son here, he loved the preschool room so much !! He made wonderful bonds with all the staff Charlotte, Nathan, Michelle, Lynsey everyone!!! , it’s such a wonderful thing to see your child be so excited about nursery, watching him develop and grow, learning so many new things, my son really enjoyed the sports sessions with Nathan and Kieran, they would change the sports often my son’s favourite was basketball and archery
Thank you to everyone at lytham lodge !!

I have loved my last four years working for Kids Planet Day Nurseries, I began my KP Journey at Kids Planet Lytham, working here gave me back the sparkle and love for working in childcare which I had lost after working in at a different company. After a year working as Outschool Co-ordinator at this site I moved to the amazing Bluebell Lodge site where I gained the confidence to take on more senior roles, becoming a room leader and gaining further knowledge in my role with support from a fantastic management team. Last year I moved to Kids Planet Ansdell where I became Deputy Manager, I also took on the role of Acting Manager whilst we found a permanent manager. The opportunities that Kids planet offer for professional progression and further learning is outstanding!

My son attends Kids Planet Shepherd Lodge and absolutely loves it. The staff are so attentive towards him and they know him and his little quirks really well, which is really settling to know as a nervous Mummy.
They are always doing lots of lovely activities and I love seeing what he gets upto on a day on their app and we like to look back at the photos together on the weekend, where he talks about what he has been doing with such excitment.
I couldn't think of a better place to send my little one and I will be sad to leave when it's time for school.

Kids planet ansdell is a great nursery family nursery they welcome all families in with the biggest smile on their faces, all staff are so friendly and happy.
It’s a pleasure to be a staff member here I go home smiling and the children are so polite and well behaved.

Kids Planet Lytham Lodge is a great setting. It’s in the heart of an amazing community which gives the children so many opportunities. Not only that but the staff are outstanding at what they do. The activities they create are lovely, all based on what the children are interested in and giving them so many opportunities. The staff are fully dedicated to their job and the children. The children come first in everything they do and the care they give them is outstanding! It’s a fabulous setting inside and out. Would recommend!

Kids Planet is a fantastic company, having work across 3 sites and now currently kids planet Ansdell, I can say how much they support both staff and families.

The careers opportunities are amazing, offering a range of qualifications and training. There is so much in house support where nothing is too much trouble!

The opportunities provided for learners is incredible, from sports to outdoor learning, trips and more!

My little girl has been going to kids planet lytham for a year now and it’s amazing she has learnt so much and absolutely loves going to nursery’s , they always have so many activities for the children to do. They have good play ground facilities outside which my daughter loves to go on . The staff are amazing always supportive and amazing listeners for if you have any concerns for your children. I highly recommend kids planet

Kids Planet Poulton Carr Head is a wonderful nursery. Lots of opportunities on offer for the children and such a welcoming atmosphere.

Our Ansdell nursery provides the best childcare experiences we give the children a safe and wonderful time providing sports, days out and a total positive time giving all the children the best experiences in their journey to school with all the children happy and giving everyday the best time ever

I was acquired by this company in June 2021 and have loved every minute of it. The opportunities for training are endless and so much money has been invested in the nurseries. It is great to see all the nurseries thriving and any worries that I initially had of being part of a larger group have gone as it is completely different to what I had expected.

Kids Planet provide high quality childcare!
