December 4, 2017 at 12:00 amThis is a great nursery. My son joined the pre school room after attending another large nursery that operates across Manchester and Cheshire. Kids Planet Hale had a tremendous impact on his confidence and sociability; he went from strength to strength here. There is some great experience in the pre school room and the staff prepared him brilliantly for school.

July 25, 2019 at 12:00 amI’m so happy I chose Kids Planet for my toddler. He has come on so well with his speech since starting earlier this year and he absolutely loves activities such as Pyjama Drama and Stretch and Grow. All the staff are extremely friendly and approachable so I feel completely reassured that my son is in a happy, safe place. Highly recommend!

November 27, 2019 at 12:00 amMy daughter spent two years here before going to reception and absolutely loved it. Staff are great and she loved the extra activities that are included in the fees – stretch and grow and pyjama drama. She has made some lovely friends here and still talks about her key workers.
We have been so happy with the level of care that our son started here aged one in June 2019 and he has also been very happy, settled in quickly and seems comfortable and confident.
My only improvement would be more photos on the parent app as they are few and far between.

November 27, 2019 at 12:00 amI can’t recommend Kids Planet Hale highly enough. My son has been going to Kids Planet since he was a baby and has been so happy there and now my daughter has just started. The staff are so caring and really know and care about my children. My kids absolutely adore them. The activities they do are great, especially pyjama drama and stretch and grow. My kids both love the food and always seem to eat really well. Preschool were also great at preparing parents and kids in readiness for school, on things like phonics etc. All-round a great nursery.

November 27, 2019 at 12:00 amMy five-year-old daughter attended here and my two-year-old son is currently at Kids Planet Hale. We are so happy, both of our kids love it and love the staff. They always have fun but have learned a lot too. It’s nice to feel relaxed going to work, knowing they are in safe hands. They do a range of activities, from outdoor play to crafting and drama to languages. The staff are also very helpful when it comes to certain milestones, such as potty training, weaning, sleep training. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kids Planet Hale.

November 27, 2019 at 12:00 amFantastic nursery. My daughter has been going here almost three years, and my son about 18 months and they love it. The staff are fantastic, they seem to really care about the children, and they listen and respond to feedback really well. The food my kids eat here is brilliant, varied and high quality (they eat way better here than they do for me at home!). I know my kids are really well cared for at this nursery and can’t recommend it enough. I’ll be so sad when they leave and go to school because they’ve been given such a fantastic start here. Thank you Kids Planet!

December 6, 2019 at 12:00 amThis is an excellent nursery. Our daughter is very happy there. She never gets upset to be left at the nursery. The staff come across as being very caring.

December 10, 2019 at 12:00 amMy little girl started at Kids Planet Hale when she was 13 months after we moved into the area. I have been nothing but happy with the nursery since she started there, and would speak very highly of the staff who work there and look after our little girl 2 days/week. The reason we chose this nursery for our little girl was based mainly on the staff, and I would definitely choose the nursery again and would recommend it to family and friends.

September 2, 2020 at 12:00 amLovely nursery with a community feel and really thoughtful staff. Both my kids have loved Kids Planet and I have always felt satisfied that they are safe and well cared for.
Staff are committed to making the space vibrant and stimulating, with regular changes to play areas and new toys. They are also continually thinking of interesting activities and my kids have always talked about these with excitement when I pick them up.
Most importantly, I have always felt that their key workers have taken the time to get to know my children and this shows in the enthusiasm and warmth that my kids always show for them in return.
I’ll be very sad when my youngest leaves next year, as Kids Planet has become an important, positive part of our young family’s development.

September 16, 2020 at 12:00 amI would definitely recommend Kids Planet, Hale. The staff are lovely and really welcoming. They always greet me and my son so warmly and it is clear that my son has so much fun when he attends nursery. The variety of tasks strikes the right balance for my son’s learning and development. During Covid19 particularly, the communication from the nursery was excellent and it is clear that the nursery has implemented all possible measures to bring the children back to nursery safely. I always feel reassured when I leave my son at nursery that he is going to have a great day with the team.

September 25, 2020 at 12:00 amOur daughter loves attending Kids Planet. The staff are so welcoming and meet us every day with a smile. The facilities are superb and we can see our daughter growing and developing every day.

March 7, 2021 at 12:00 amWe continue to be impressed by everyone at Kids Planet Day Nurseries – Hale. Our daughter loves it there. The app works really well and they update it regularly, including lots of pictures of what she is doing. They’ve managed the pandemic really well and there has hardly been any disruption. The staff genuinely care and will always give us a brief description of how her day has been. Thank you to everyone

February 18, 2022 at 12:00 amThe staff are superb and I know my child is in very good hands. My child has had a combination of food allergies which have been handled sensitively and thoroughly with no issues. The app is useful to keep up to date with what’s happening during the daytime whilst we’re at work and is regularly updated, and you can customise the information you want to be updated about. We have been using Kids Planet since 2016 and would highly recommend it.

February 23, 2022 at 12:00 amMy little boy starts his journey there from November in 2021 and now he is well settled and learns a lot. The staff are professional and take good care of my little one. He really enjoys being there. The app lets me know his daily routine in the nursery. Their stretch n grow will come back from next week, I am pretty sure my kid will enjoy it.

March 16, 2022 at 12:00 amWe moved our two-year-old to this nursery after our nursery closed down. The initial show around was excellent this did not continue. Within the month we had moved her to a new setting which was stressful and unsettling for our child.
There was a revolving door of staff in the toddler’s room that were not welcoming, uninterested in being there, and gave generic handovers.
We had to ask multiple times for a key worker. When they were assigned it was a staff member who did not work at times when we would be picking up/dropping off. She did not contact us to introduce herself or learn about our child. In the feedback response, we were told it was actually a different staff member.
I had to chase logon details for the ParentZone app. When we did get this it was rarely updated.
There was an incident when we picked up our child and she was using another child’s dummy.
I was disappointed that after leaving I had to chase what was done about our feedback and issues with billing.

August 6, 2022 at 12:00 amAll four of my children have attended Kids Planet Hale. The family feel is instantly evident. From the warm, nurturing team in the baby room, through to the experienced and knowledgeable preschool team who have supported my children to be more than school ready.
The management team are supportive and always on hand to answer any questions. The nursery is beautiful, well presented and the team all clearly care about providing challenging and stimulating activities for children of all ages.
A nursery that goes over and above to support families. On challenging days bringing three into the nursery, the team will help me to and from the car. The additional curricular activities such as stretch and grow which my daughter looks forward to daily. The re-introduction of the hairdresser is an added bonus for working parents.
We couldn’t be happier that we chose this nursery.

August 6, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended Kids Planet Hale since she was 9 months old, and she is now 4. We have had the most amazing experience at Kids Planet. Our little one has developed so much since she started, and she loves it so much. All of the teachers and staff go above and beyond, and I know my baby is in the best care. We will be so sad to leave to go to big school.

April 19, 2023 at 12:00 amKids Planet Hale have been superb in settling our children. They provide a safe and nurturing environment where they look to educate and stimulate the children whilst having fun. We have a 4-year-old in the pre-school where she is currently being prepared for a school environment and a one-year-old who recently started. The baby room is a fantastic start and introduction to nursery with such lovely members of staff who offer a caring setting. We have been very happy with Kids Planet Hale and would highly recommend.

April 19, 2023 at 12:00 amI have two children at Kids Planet Hale. It’s a really lovely nursery with an excellent manager and some really wonderful members of staff. I’ve had a couple of small niggles over the few years we’ve used the nursery but they have always been really quickly managed and resolved.
The best thing about the nursery is the home-from-home feel. Both our children really like to go in and are really settled and happy – what more do you really need at a pre-school age?
