  • Kids Planet Warrington, Warrington
Kids Planet Warrington is rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted in Dec 2018 and is also Udeskole accredited. It is based in a converted 19th century chapel only two minutes' walk from Warrington town centre.

One of the many benefits of being close to the town centre is that the team are able to take children out on frequent trips into town, to the library, the museum or to the park which is located just next to the nursery. All children have their development supported with age specific learning and are able to discover and explore through play.

The whole service approach is based upon preserving the magic of childhood, at the same time as adhering to the key areas of the EYFS. Safeguarding the children in the nursery is one of their utmost priorities and the nursery offers state of the art security systems. Complete with CCTV in every room, intercom systems are standard in all rooms ensuring that the children’s safety is paramount at all times.

Kids Planet Warrington, Legh Street is amazing! All of the staff are so passionate about their roles and making the children's experiences of nursery the best that they can be. They put so much effort into creating different activities to maximise the children's learning and creativity. Our little girl
has come on leaps and bounds since starting nursery in January 2024. As parents we were so anxious with her starting nursery and being away from us but the staff instantly put our minds at rest with how comforting they are - honestly it is like a home from home for her. I used to frantically check the app to make sure she was settled/okay but now I rarely check it as I just know she is in the best hands!

Kids Planet Nursery has been an incredible place for our son since he joined at 1.5 years old. The staff's dedication and genuine care for the children made all the difference in his early development. The nurturing atmosphere helped him thrive, building his confidence and social skills. We've now moved
him to another branch within the Kids Planet family and we're so happy to keep him in such a positive and consistent environment. The transition between branches was seamless, thanks to the professionalism and support of the Kids Planet team. We're truly grateful for the wonderful start they have given our son and couldn't recommend Kids Planet Nursery enough!

My son is coming up to 2 years old, he has attended this nursery since he was 6 months old and I am so glad I chose here over anywhere else. He absolutely adores the staff and it's really clear how fond of him they are, he is always excited to go and I believe what he has learnt at nursery has gone
a long way with his development. They are always changing the activities, moving rooms around and thinking of new things to engage the children and stimulate them. They are really good with contact, and sharing information and in my experience are really supportive when things are difficult. I honestly couldn't fault them at all, just a genuinely lovely staff team.

The staff at Kids Planet Warrington seem to actually care for each individual child and their needs. They are all so friendly and easy to talk to. The nursery is always very clean and tidy and has a good amount of activities to keep the children happy and not overwhelmed. The little trips they occasionally
take the children out on too are always lovely and you know your child is safe in their care.
Entrance to the nursery is very secure and safe and passwords are always asked when it's not the usual parent collecting the child.

My daughter has been coming here for 3 years now and she's loved every room she's been in and every teacher she's had. Currently in Preschool, she's made strong friendships and is always talking about her teachers; and I can see why. They are always so eager to see all the kids and constantly engage
with them from the minute we drop off to when we pick her up, whether they're having some downtime or involved in new and exciting activities.

The Warrington Kids Planet on Leigh Street is an amazing centre, would highly recommend this, the staff have made us feel so welcome and their experience in looking after the children can be seen when we attended sports day and graduation ceremony. We will miss them so much, they all have left an everlasting
memory in our heart. This centre should be rewarded for their hard work with all the children.

I have watched my child learn, grow, and form trusting relationships (with their teachers) and firm friendships with their peers (that we can hope will last for a long time to come) during their time at Kids Planet Warrington. I cannot praise or thank Kids Planet Warrington enough for the high level
of care, patience and attention they have given my little person over the last 4 years. Primary school have got a seriously tough act to follow.

First of all can I please say a massive thank you to all of the staff at Kids Planet. Each and every one of you has been so warm and welcoming. To not only my daughter but to me and my partner. She has come on leaps and bounds since attending and she's made some lovely friends. She has taken a keen
interest in playing sports out of pre-school. That's down to her sports coach who is such a pleasant man. She will be leaving soon to go to big girl school. We will be sad to say goodbye to you all but from the bottom of our hearts a big thank you. I highly recommend Kids Planet to any future parents looking for a safe, loving and nurturing environment for their little ones.

My children always went in every day with a smile on their faces and some days it was hard for me to get them to come home. I am so grateful for everything that the

For the safety of children, I would like to make parents aware of a recent serious incident which happened to my son, aged 3.
During a morning session and staff not following appropriate safeguarding policy, my son was able to run down the full length of the drive and in to the busy main road (Legh
Street), before a staff member noticed he was missing and chased after him.
This was only his fourth session at the nursery.
After reviewing the cctv, the entire preschool class were running freely around the car park, with staff not paying attention to the drive or side street entrances.
The children were not on reins or harnesses which was an assurance of the nursery.
Thankfully my son is ok; however, it could have been so much worse and has caused our family great anxiety.
I would hate for this to happen to another family and would like to make all parents aware of the incident which took place on 1st February 2024.
Please read the recent Ofsted report.

I picked a random date as my review is based on my whole experience. My little one has been in this nursery since they were 8/9 months old. They have just started reception.
Every parent gets to cry on their child’s first day of school, I never cried when she started at Kids Planet as I knew they
were in great hands. Through Kids Planet my child is bubbly, outgoing, intelligent, and polite, it was like co-parenting as they were with me as much as them. The day they started reception they were a little upset as their teachers from Kids Planet were not going to be there but excited to make new friends and start the next chapter. I can’t rate the nursery enough, I don’t think any words could justify just how amazing they have been.

We're so happy your little one enjoyed their time at Kids Planet so much. We wish them well on their next adventure at big school!

My daughter has been with the nursery for 18 months (toddler and preschool room) having switched from another Kids Planet branch after the lockdowns due to working from home. It was great to see how consistent the ethos is between the different sites, she settled in really fast and has formed strong
bonds with the staff and children. She thoroughly enjoyed her time there. As parents, we always felt well-informed about her day and planned activities. The staff were very gentle towards her food challenges and over time she started trying new flavours and textures. We also really appreciated the support with toilet training. Our wider family noticed her learnings and independence which I fully relate back to the amazing staff at the nursery. It’s been a great experience and we will miss everyone.

My daughter joined the preschool room on March 2022, exactly when we moved into the country, she didnt know a single word or letter of English and now she is such a confident kid overall. All the staff have worked on her individually considering her growth, adaptation to new country, language difference
and everything else was taken care very closely. The teachers are so patient to address parents fear too, I have always been told dont look at what your kid should know by now, but focus on what she knows.
Kids planet has been our best decision while moving and I thank you all for all the individual attention you give to each child.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.778)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.778) out of 10 for Kids Planet Warrington is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.778 for Kids Planet Warrington is calculated as follows: ( (217 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 239 Ratings = 4.778

  • b) 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 Warrington is based on 19 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 94 number of registered child places is 18.8, which has been reached with 19 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
