My eldest attended the nursery from 2021 and my youngest has been there a year so far. The setting is lovely and the team are fabulous. I have always valued how child lead they are - whenever an interest is shown , they always build on it with learning and play opportunities. Many of the staff have been there a long time and I feel they all know each child, it makes for a welcoming and friendly place. It is important to me that I get to hear about my child's day so I really like that they promote this parent relationship by great communication at pick up and drop off. My boys enjoy how much the nursery offers - they can use their imagination, be messy, play outside as much as possible and sing lots of wonderful songs. From stay and plays, to beautiful graduations, countless baking, crafts and learning experiences- we are so happy we chose this nursery , it has been wonderful for our family.

My third child is currently at Kids Planet Durham and my older two also attended. We have always been extremely happy with the care given and the learning that takes place at nursery and this has set them up so well for starting primary school. The staff are so friendly and caring with the children and the activities they do with them are so fun and varied. My children absolutely love the nursery and I think they have thrived during their time there.

Our little boy has been at Kids Planet for 6 months now, the staff have been brilliant and he's settled so wonderfully into the nursery. We have seen him come on so much with their support! We are so pleased with our choice.

My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery, she has such a good relationship with the staff, it is so reassuring for us as parents. My daughter talks about the ladies in her room all the time even though she only goes to nursery 2 days a week. We tried a couple of different nurseries but the staff didn't interact with her half as well and also the rooms were set out differently- mostly plastic toys. We appreciate the rooms are set out at the nursery, creating an opportunity for imaginative play, my daughter responded to this very well. The nursery always seems to provide opportunities for sensory/messy play which my daughter loves. The garden is fantastic, lots of space and well equipped and they go out at least once a day. We are so very grateful that we found this nursery and for the staff who make my daughter's time there so much fun.

Great nursery and extremely supportive with parents who struggle to leave little ones! Feel extremely comfortable leaving my child in their care and all the staff are very kind and talkative. Get a great update about how my child's day has been!

We have been using Kids Planet Durham for over two years now for daycare for our two little ones (1 and 3 years old). Handing your baby over to what are almost complete strangers is one of the most daunting and worrying things any new Mam can do, however I felt completely at ease from day 1. The staff here absolutely make the place what it is and the experience the children clearly get is amazing. There are too many individuals to name but they're all stars and our two children always come home having had a great day with their little friends, all of which is logged and can be monitored through the app. Thank you to everyone at Kids Planet for nurturing and caring so much for the children, we can't thank you enough.

Kids Planet Durham has been a second home to my daughter since she was 9 months old. She has just left pre-school ready to start reception next week. The staff are what really makes this place special. The genuine care and love they have for the children is amazing. Staff across the whole nursery have helped foster a love of learning and always encourage process over product/outcome. The curriculum is broad and allows the children to explore a wide range of topics. Communication is brilliant, I love hearing about the day at pick up and I've always enjoyed stay and plays. The chance to spend some quality time at nursery with my daughter was priceless. It will always have a special place in our hearts.

Kids Planet Durham is a fantastic day nursery. My child has attended for over 2 years, starting in the toddler room and leaving from pre-school. He has had a great experience the whole time and as parents, we are so happy with the level of care our child has received. The management and staff are exceptional and are truly caring. There are core members of staff in each room so the children see regular staff every day. The facilities are excellent and the food has also been very good. This nursery goes above and beyond in all areas of the nursery. There is a big playground/garden out the back as well where kids have lots of room to run around. The 15/30 hours of funded childcare can also be spread over 51 weeks which has worked very well for us, ensuring we have care all year round for our children while we both work.

Kids Planet has always been so welcoming from day 1. They've always been very supportive and caring. They are very good at accommodating additional dates/times. Great meal selection.

My little boy has attended this nursery since the age of 3, he is leaving to start school in September. The team at Kids Planet are absolutely amazing and have brought my baby boy on so much. The girls genuinely do love teaching the children and I can see this in my little boy daily, he comes out having had such a brilliant day. I was apprehensive at first as I had to change his nursery due to a change in job. I had nothing to worry about. My son absolutely loves Kids Planet. The team really do make this the best nursery in the area. They are appreciated beyond belief, I can't thank them enough for giving me peace of mind, knowing my little boy is safe and well cared for makes my day so much easier.

This nursery has been the natural choice for my second daughter because my first daughter had such a positive experience here. My second little girl is now so happy here. The staff genuinely delight in being with the children. My oldest improved so much in her confidence here and I can see the same thing happening with my youngest baby. I’ve noticed an improvement in the facilities and resources, but the nursery still has the same music focus to the curriculum which we love!
28 March 2024
Excellent nursery. My little girl looks forward to going and has grown in confidence so much since starting. The staff are friendly and caring and I’m confident this is a safe, educational and fun place for my daughter to attend.

Amazing nursery, my son first joined when he was 9 months old and on Friday had his last day at nursery ready for school in September. The staff are amazing and were wonderful with my son, it's been lovely to watch him move from each room in the nursery, from the baby room right up to pre-school. He has enjoyed the messy play, baking, learning new things every week, but most of all the staff. If I had to do it all over again I would definitely choose Kids Planet nursery.

My son has been attending Do Re Mi for over 9 months now. We are really happy with the nursery. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The food is healthy and varied and has improved his eating a lot. He gets to do lots of great activities which he enjoys so much and really help his development. He loves the staff and runs in smiling to see them. Most importantly my son loves going; he walks in with a big smile on his face in the morning and comes back so happy. It helps me to know he's in safe hands and so happy there.

The staff in the explorer room are excellent! My daughter comes home each week saying the staff are her best friends. My only negative is I find the nursery not accommodating at all in regards to changing days occasionally.
27 December 2022
The best thing I ever did for my little girl was choose Do Re Mi as her nursery. The staff are amazing, kind, thoughtful, always doing new things and put me at ease. My little one has picked up so many different skills since starting. She loves going in to see everyone. I honestly believe they have made me a better parent. I can not thank the whole team enough for everything they do!

Everyone in the nursery is so friendly, welcoming and professional. My little girl loves going to nursery. It is so important to find a nursery where you feel your child is safe and I highly recommend Do Re Mi.
27 December 2022
Our daughter has been attending Do Re Mi since she was 10 months - she absolutely loves it and so do we. Would highly recommend their service. The staff are wonderful there, they are friendly, caring, patient, thoughtful, creative, compassionate and very innovative. They always go that extra mile to provide the best environment, experience and care for your child. Our daughter has learnt so much there, we will truly miss Do Re Mi and the wonderful staff when she moves to primary school in September. Thank you for everything Do Re Mi, we could not have chosen a better nursery to nature our child.
23 December 2022
Our son is thriving at Do Re Mi Day Nursery. He's confident and polite. He also talks about the staff at home and seems excited to attend. He comes home with cute creations and we are grateful for the attentive teaching style. Thank you!
