About this day nursery

30pm. The nursery caters for children aged 0-4 years.

At Kids Planet Hoylake, children are observed to arrive excitedly, eager to explore the activities on offer. The staff are adept at identifying any gaps in children's learning, and strong links with other professionals ensure that all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), receive the guidance needed to reach their full potential.

This commitment to individual progress means all children make good strides from their starting points. Children develop strong, loving bonds with the nurturing staff, making them feel safe and secure as they confidently explore the stimulating learning environment.

My daughter has been at Kids Planet for 7 months now and the development we have seen her is amazing. She's so confident, independent and she has strong motor skills. All the staff have been amazing, and we know we don't need to worry when we drop our daughter off. She loves it here, and were lucky if we even get a wave good bye anymore!

We have loved the care and commitment given to our little boy for the last 18 months. Staff are warm and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. They pay an interest in him as an individual and provide activities that they know he will love around his interests or what he has been doing at home. I love that he gets to play outside a lot and even visit the beach and park with his friends. The updates on the app are a welcome addition to the feedback given at the end of the day pick up, particularly the photos! Highly recommend this nursery!
