Kids Planet Great Sankey

About this day nursery

Kids Planet Great Sankey is a warm and inviting nursery situated in a beautifully refurbished 19th-century church hall, first opened in 2018. The nursery is dedicated to providing outstanding childcare and early education for children from infancy through to preschool age.

Its bright and expansive rooms, along with well-appointed outdoor spaces and an advanced sensory room, create an ideal setting for children's growth and learning. The highly skilled and compassionate team personalises care to support each developmental stage, ensuring children feel secure, confident, and eager to discover their environment from day one.

The nursery boasts a communication-friendly zone, an exclusive sensory room, and a substantial outdoor play area where children partake in daily physical activities and engage with nature through Outdoor School sessions, led by a proficient sports coach. These sessions foster resilience, encourage problem-solving, and instil a lasting appreciation for the outdoors.

Beyond the nursery grounds, children benefit from frequent outings to local attractions such as the library, parks, and other community points of interest. Its convenient location near bus routes facilitates broader explorations within the local community, promoting meaningful connections and novel experiences.

Kids Planet Great Sankey offers flexible session options, including an early bird slot from 7:00–7:30 am for an extra charge, alongside stay-and-play sessions, open days, and wellbeing coffee mornings, all designed to keep families connected to their child’s learning journey. The nursery aims to be a supportive environment where children's potential is celebrated and families are supported at every step.

Children at Kids Planet Great Sankey are greeted by friendly staff and enter a warm, welcoming environment where they feel safe and secure. They eagerly engage in various activities, show good behaviour, and are making good progress across all areas of learning, preparing them for their next stage in education. Leaders have adapted the nursery in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing parents to enter with their children, who happily part from their parents.
