My daughter has been going to Twinkles since when she was 6-months-old and would say she has developed very well. Started first with one branch then moved to another branch in town.


Staff members are very welcoming while assuring that your child (children) are safe. Lovely atmosphere and a lot to

learn from.


Beautiful nursery to attend, love them.

Fantastic nursery! As a previous manager of a nursery, finding a nursery that was good enough was hard... Until we found Twinkles Nursery White Rose! They reassured us from the moment we were shown round. The manager is very much involved in the nursery, overseeing everything which was a bonus for us!
The baby room team are fantastic! The staff are a total credit to Twinkles, each of them take time with my child welcoming her into nursery in a morning and they have time for us as parents too. I never thought my baby would be waving me off to work at 10 months old but she's clearly so confident and happy at nursery that is exactly what she does! My child has a dairy allergy and the cooks food is clearly a winner with her because she is a brilliant eater at nursery! We couldn't be happier with the care that she receives at nursery, thank you so much you have made returning to work so much easier for me as a first time worried mummy! Amazing team!

My son started at Twinkles just before his 1st birthday and has recently left to start school.
I can't praise everyone enough for everything. They have been understanding, encouraging and supportive throughout his nursery and preschool journey.

My son started going to Twinkles White Rose when he was nine months old and the staff have been nothing but wonderful with him - and me! They adhered to his routine and persevered with my phone calls and worries when he first started. I could see even within a few months that he was developing across
all areas. Now - aged two and a half - he loves going to nursery and tells me about his day. He is confident and tries all food - which I have to attribute to the incredible meals they have given to them! All are healthy, they take all dietary requirements and allergies into account and ensure cultural preferences are adhered to.
I love getting updates about his day and meeting with his keyworker. We have recently moved and will very sadly need to change nurseries - I only hope the new one lives up to Twinkles' standards! I honestly cannot recommend Twinkles White Rose enough - there are going to be a lot of tears on his last day!

My daughter has been attending Twinkles White Rose since she was nine months and I cannot recommend this nursery enough, the staff are amazing, so friendly and caring. When my little girl first joined I was so worried that she wouldn't settle without me and the support from all the staff was fantastic,
she very quickly settled in and loves going to nursery. The bond that the staff form with the children and parents is incredible and my daughter's development has gone from strength to strength and her confidence has grown so much since joining. I especially love all the photos and feedback of what she's been up to via the app. I cannot praise this nursery and the staff enough and I would highly recommend Twinkles White Rose to anyone.

I can't recommend this nursery enough. My expectations of any nursery do not come anywhere near what Twinkles deliver. All the staff are incredible. Since I've been there (almost 2 years), the core of the staff hasn't really changed, and that says a lot for the chemistry of Twinkles. It strangely feels
like my family. I've got 2 kids in (1 almost 3 and the other 1) and when I pick them up every day, I know they have been doing all sorts of different activities, learning and getting creative. My eldest has basically learnt so much from Twinkles, his development has been incredible.

My daughter suffers from multiple food allergies and also has a medical condition which requires daily medication and monitoring. Since my daughter has attended Twinkles Nursery White Rose, the team have ensured appropriate care plans are in place, training and awareness has been given to staff and
procedures in place to ensure the correct level of safeguarding is given. I feel the personal care and attention has gone above and beyond expectations.
My daughter has attended the nursery for 3 years now and I would highly recommend this nursery to any parents looking for exceptional care and preschool education.

My son has been attending Twinkles White Rose from being 7 months old and I can’t begin to explain how much we both love the nursery. Staff helped us both settle in - it’s amazing knowing he is happy, having fun, learning, socialising and developing. The nursery has great facilities; the feedback from
staff via Capture is a bonus, alongside parent meetings. I would recommend this nursery over and over again with no faults.

I'm very happy with Twinkles White Rose Nursery. The staff offer a friendly, caring approach to looking after my son. The daily activities help to develop my son's learning as well as lots of free playtime.


My child has settled in very well and loves the nursery. This is all because of the wonderful

staff and care that is given to the children. The girls in the room are great. I am very grateful to all the staff and his key workers, who have been amazing. There is good communication between home and nursery, both written and verbal feedback being very useful. The food is also very good, fresh and healthy and my son, who is normally very fussy, enjoys all the meals !

My daughter has been at the nursery since it opened in September 2014. Since starting she has flourished in to a very bright, confident little girl. She loves attending and has formed very strong bonds with all her key workers during her time there.
All the staff are friendly, welcoming and professional
which I feel is a must to help nurture any child's development. I'm really pleased that my little girl is getting the best start for her future being part of this nursery.

My son has attended this nursery since he was eight months old, he settled immediately and has been very happy. His development has come on in leaps and bounds since starting here. I am more than happy that this is the most nurturing environment for my son. The staff are all professional and caring
and their costs are reasonable. I am more than happy to reccomend this nursery to other parents looking for the best place for their children.

Being a mother to twin boys can be challenging at times; especially when you work full time. Twinkles have been amazing since I returned to work. Working next door is just an added bonus, if I need to get to the boys quickly.
The staff are great and you know that they really enjoy the children they
look after. It's only been six months and the rate at which my boys have developed has been phenomenal and that's down to the nursery and staff. Encouraging the kids to walk, talk and feed themselves, interacting with others, painting and playing in the sand are just a few things they've been up to and enjoy on a daily basis.
I have already recommended the place as somewhere to send my friends children (and will continue to do so) as well making inquiries about staff vacancies.

As a granny living a long way from my daughter and son in law, it was always going to be the case that my grandson would need 3, now 4 days at nursery once my daughter's maternity leave ended. My grandson has now been at Twinkles White Rose since March 2015 and loves going! He was a bit clingy to start
with but this was managed really well by the great staff . Any queries have always been quickly dealt with and the staff, resources, indoor and outdoor environments and food are brilliant. My grandson is learning new things everyday!

Twinkles is a fabulous purpose-built nursery with lots of indoor and outdoor space. The staff are friendly and professional and we are filled with confidence that our little boy is being well looked after, with lovely home-cooked food and lots of stimulating activities.
We have been at Twinkles for
four months and feel so lucky to have a place! Would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending to others.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.600)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.600) out of 10 for Kids Planet Leeds White Rose is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 13 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 4.878 for Kids Planet Leeds White Rose is calculated as follows: ( (139 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.878

  • 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 4.722 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Leeds White Rose is based on 13 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 90 number of registered child places is 18. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.722

  • 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.
