Overall Experience

We are extremely happy with the nursery. The last managers have demonstrated to care and to make good choices. We love that everyone is very welcoming and it seems that the majority of people do get along. My preschool child runs through the doors and loves their teachers. The teachers are highly missed

on a Sat and Sunday! We love that the activities are well set up, that the kids learn, and that they have a good time. The staff is really responsive to our desires and decisions should we decide to ask for food omissions and they are extremely supportive with any requests we may have. We love the latest initiative of the outdoor trips, they are a very valuable experience for the kids!

Overall Experience

A great nursery with lovely staff. Our son enjoys it and we get to see what he is up to, thanks to the updates on the app. The venue is great with outdoor space and plenty of toys.
The staff are caring and will take on board suggestions.
Some points for improvement:
- ideally, the staff turnover

would be reduced.
- new staff should introduce themselves when they start, to make it easier for parents to know who is taking care of their child.
- communication could be improved, but efforts have been made by management so, even if not perfect, this is better.
But overall, a great nursery, I don't regret our choice!

Thank you for your honest review of Kids Planet Chris Abell. I would be happy to ensure all parents are notified of new starters prior to start to ensure you aware of new staff members who will be caring for your child as well small meet and greets so parents feel included and informed. I look forward making further improvements going forward!

Overall Experience

I am very happy with the care provided by the Tod room to my little one. He loves going to the nursery and the key persons are always so lovely and caring with my child. I love that they send regular reports and photos of what my son is doing during the day. Something to improve a little bit is the

staff rotation, as there have been a few during this year.

Thank you so much for your positive review. We strive to create an environment that all children and parents can feel comfortable in and we hope in the future that we can prevent staff movement to ensure consistent staff in our rooms.

Overall Experience

Our twins have been going to Chris Abell since they turned 1 and they are now thriving preschoolers. The nursery is really well equipped and set out so our energetic boys have plenty of space to play and lots of inventive activities to keep them entertained. The staff are incredibly warm and friendly,

and the boys have adored all their key workers. We have felt really confident that they are truly cared for. Their key workers have also worked together with us when we or they have had any concerns about the boys and made sure we are joined up in our approach at home and at nursery. Chris Abell has helped our little boys develop their language, their skills, and their confidence as well as make friends and learn to understand their own and others' emotions. We will be sad to leave next September.

My son has recently started at Kids Planet and he loves every minute! The baby room is well equipped and the staff are always lovely! The chef always caters to my son's allergies and ensures he has food which he can eat! He normally has 2 portions! Thank you everyone for settling my son in well!

Overall Experience

This is a lovely nursery with very caring staff and I would highly recommend it to other parents. Our baby has been attending this setting since September 2022 and we have had an extremely positive experience of the baby room. My son bonded quickly with his key worker and has loved all the inventive

and varied activities she has done with him. I see happy photos of him daily on the parent app, which also updates me on his meals and sleep.
The facilities at this nursery are really good. There is a dedicated baby sensory room and garden for the babies and beautiful displays of wooden toys and books. The menu is varied and my son almost always finishes all his meals.
The nursery is efficiently run and I feel the staff work well as a team. The Christmas party they held was excellent and showed how great the nursery was.

Overall Experience

I am a mum of an 18-month-old girl. She started with Chris Abell in August. She did have some separation anxiety issues at the beginning; she cried in the morning and in the afternoon. All that ended thanks to the excellent care she has been receiving from the nursery staff. They were very understanding

of her needs and did their best to help her settle in the new environment. And it worked so well, that my daughter now loves her nursery. She never cries anymore when being left in the morning and when we pick her up, she welcomes us with a big smile which shows how much fun she has had all day.
Chris Abell nursery staff are very dedicated, they enjoy working with children and have lots of creative ideas how to play with them. My daughter adores her key workers and is delighted to see them. Every day we receive a report on how she ate and slept and several photos of her playing happily. The nursery building is beautiful, and I could not imagine a better place for my daughter.

Overall Experience

I am a father of 15 month old twin boys attending Chris Abell. Since they joined the nursery in July they are having a great time. They are always happy to arrive, and they are welcomed by friendly and caring staff each morning. As a parent, I am informed of the boys' progress and activities during

the day. At pickup, the staff are very willing to answer questions that I have, and they give me detailed updates on naps, illnesses etc. The boys adore their key workers and have great fun with them.
The location is brand new and very well-equipped. The toys are age-appropriate, and they have recently created a great sensory room which my boys love. I am really pleased with the decision to send my boys to Chris Abell.
