Brilliant nursery. My twins absolutely love their time in nursery and have come on so much. They keep you informed about everything that is happening during the day. My twins absolutely adore the staff. Always helpful and friendly. Fabulous team, can't thank them enough for all their hard work.

Overall Experience

I never thought I would find a nursery which would achieve my expectations - however, both myself and my daughter are 100% content and happy with the level of care, nurturing and learning that occurs at nursery. The outdoor space is fantastic and thought and consideration are always being given to encouraging

independence and new experiences. My daughter's allergy needs are managed really well - and I have trust and confidence in all staff. Whenever I have any questions or require information, queries are always met openly and responses are always provided. My daughter thoroughly enjoys every day and I feel staff have a true commitment to the care they provide daily.

Overall Experience

This nursery stands out from any other I have seen and that my child has attended. What stands out for me is the personal approach all staff take with the children and the families, they truly understand what we want/need as parents when leaving our children in their care. I receive regular updates

throughout the day which is very reassuring and it's something I look forward to. They offer a wide variety of food, activities and time outdoors which is not something I can always offer myself due to daily life and commitments. The staff work very hard to ensure the children are cared for and entertained throughout the day and I have full trust in each and every one of them. I also love that management are very involved with the children and makes the effort to get to know each child. The facilities and outdoor space in this nursery are amazing and with the all-inclusive aspect, I feel it is worth every penny. Big thank you to all the staff at Knowsley Safari Nursery, you are doing an amazing job!

Overall Experience

As a new mum who feared to leave her son, this nursery exceeded my expectations. The care and professionalism, balanced with a fun/loving vibe is evident. The manager has created a lovely sense of community/belonging and together with staff, formed a nurturing environment where my son is valued and

encouraged to thrive. He's met with genuine affection and it's clear that staff take time to understand each child's individual needs to tailor their development. Via creative arts, sensory play, outdoor activity, he's exposed to a variety of learning opportunities, sparking his curiosity and imagination. Real-time App updates - daily activity/pictures, the transparency gives me peace of mind. The positive impact Kids Planet has had on his understanding of the world, communication and language and just his early development in general is brilliant. Special thanks to all staff who've created and nurtured strong bonds with my son, he is very happy and never wants to leave at pick-up time says it all!

Overall Experience

My son started here in November after a really bad experience with another local nursery. It's incredible. The staff are welcoming and the facilities are incredible. The app provides some lovely updates and means we are always aware of what he is up to and what he's eating throughout the day. There

is total transparency with the menu and any other details which is such a bonus. The curriculum is fab and he has already come on leaps and bounds since attending here. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Reply from Kids Planet Team ., Marketing at Kids Planet Knowsley Safari

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond, it's lovely to hear how much your son is developing within our nursery and how much the information provided is helping you as a parent with the knowledge and support around the day-to-day activities. We will pass your positive feedback to the team as they will love to hear it.

My son started at Kids Planet Knowsley Safari Nursery in September and he is absolutely loving it! We were nervous at first as he has been with me everyday but he is enjoying it so much, exploring new delicious foods, painting, learning, making friends. The staff have been so helpful and have answered

any questions or addressed any worries straight away. Would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone as I know my son is safe and happy there. All nappies, wipes, food etc is included so it makes it a lot easier and saves money too.

Such an amazing little nursery in such a cool little area as well! All the staff are lovely and greet you with smiles every day! My little boy loves it. Doesn't even look back at me now when he potters in. He's come on so much since starting here from social skills to the food he eats! He was such a

fussy eater before he started, now he robs things from my plate, he wants to try everything! He has never had the opportunity to be around other children due to the lockdown and was genuinely scared when around them, now I hear he has little friends and his confidence has skyrocketed! Honestly cannot recommend this place enough! It's excellent.

Absolutely thrilled with setting our little boy at Waverton Safari Day Nursery he has come on leaps and bounds since attending. He waves us off at the door knowing he is in for a day of fun and lots of outdoor activities. Really wanted him to be somewhere he could be outdoors as much as possible and

this is definitely the place for that.

Overall Experience

Our daughter, who is now 14 months, has been attending Waverton Safari Day Nursery for 3 months now. Our plan was to visit two nurseries, Waverton Safari and another, but having visited Waverton Safari we instantly knew this was the nursery for us and we didn’t need to view the other. The manager and

deputy manager were incredibly welcoming, helpful and reassuring during our visit and have been throughout. The Nestlings room leader has been absolutely fantastic with my little girl. They have such a lovely bond. The room leader is very personable, caring and always comes to the door with a smile. I wish she could stay with my little girl throughout her Waverton journey but I’ve no doubt the rest of the Waverton team will be just as caring and friendly. Everything about this nursery is just fantastic. We are so happy we chose Waverton Safari and would recommend to anyone looking for a nursery setting, especially for babies, as so far our experience has been first class.

I cannot rave about this nursery enough! It’s like one big family. The Manager is just perfect at her job and all the girls are so lovely and caring with the kids. I have seen a huge change in my child since starting at this nursery, her confidence is gleaming and her knowledge about insects, animals,

numbers and letters has completely surprised me for a 4-year-old. So much love and care come from the girls and it truly shows. If you need anything the girls will bend over backwards. Thank you Waverton Safari.

All of the staff at Waverton Safari have been brilliant since we first went for a look around last year. The managers are so approachable and lovely, as are all of the other girls. It took a while for our little boy to settle after being in lockdown with us, but everyone’s been so patient and kind with

him which has made all the difference. He’s come on leaps and bounds since starting nursery and always comes out with a big smile and lots of stories for me! The updates on Blossom are great to see what activities he’s been up to, the girls will always update us at the end of the day too. I’d highly recommend visiting to see for yourself how lovely the whole place and people are!

She is a fantastic manager, nothing is too much and always friendly. The nursery itself is outstanding with the facilities

and outside play areas. I truly believe their ethics on the curiosity approach has really aided my son's development. Cannot praise this nursery enough!

My son joined Waverton Safari Day Nursery during February in the preschool room. From the very beginning, I knew my son would love this nursery. He runs into the nursery and loves all the girls that work there. He enjoys every single day at nursery and enjoys the activities set up for him to do, especially

forest school. I know that when I leave my son, he is safe and well looked after. I love being part of the Waverton Safari family and my son does too.

My daughter started at Waverton Safari Day Nursery only five months ago and in that time, she has come on leaps and bounds. She was reluctant to be detached from me at first but now she strolls in and waves goodbye. She absolutely loves two members of the staff, in particular, and comes home telling

me she’s had a fun day at nursery. I couldn’t recommend Waverton Safari Day Nursery enough, the setting is absolutely stunning and there are so many wonderful activities that the children get to do. They accommodate for everything and we couldn’t wait for our daughter to start here, from the first day we were shown around.

Overall Experience

Since my baby started Waverton Safari the manager has been nothing but helpful and goes above and beyond to make sure that my child’s individual needs are met. All members of staff are welcoming and friendly. They are all responsive to my child’s needs, always remembering key information, and always

act upon it in a timely manner. The manager gives you detailed updates of the baby's day. Now for me to see a manager who knows my child very well and to also do the groundwork in the rooms shows how passionate she is and how well managed the Nursery is. The person who is my child’s key worker is always happy bubbly and smiley she spends time at the door to talk about my baby's day and if I have any requests she will follow them through efficiently. My child has regular forest school sessions and they have their own little woodland land, she has made jam from collecting berries and bashed ice with a mallet. The experiences she is getting are amazing for a 22-month-old.

I am thrilled with Waverton Safari, my daughter started in November 2020, and loves it so much. She was a very shy child and very attached to me, so leaving her was a big worry for me. I needn't have worried because she literally runs in and asks to go every day if she could. The staff are very friendly

and supportive, any questions addressed very efficiently. I love the updates we receive, and I love the whole setup of the nursery and their approach to learning. I would not hesitate to recommend Waverton Safari, it is so unique in its setting, I am so glad we chose this nursery.
