About Us
Kids Planet Whetstone
Kids Planet Whetstone (Formerly Hunny Bear, Whetstone nursery) is a welcoming nursery offering early years education and care for children from babies through to preschool age in a safe and nurturing environment. Our setting is thoughtfully organised into age appropriate rooms, including dedicated spaces for babies, toddlers and preschool children, supporting every stage of early development.
Indoors, children benefit from well equipped environments, including a dedicated dining and indoor physical play space, alongside features such as air conditioning and secure access systems to ensure comfort and safety. Outdoors, children can explore both a garden and yard area with all weather surfaces, encouraging active play, exploration and fresh air all year round. We also offer a holiday club and provide nutritious home cooked meals each day.
With a caring and experienced team, Kids Planet Whetstone offers a supportive environment where children can grow in confidence, build friendships and thrive.
Shanice MacDonald
ManagerI began my journey in childcare 12 years ago as an apprentice, fueled by a genuine love for early years education. Over the last decade, I have dedicated myself to mastering every aspect of the field, working my way up from an apprentice to my current role as Deputy Manager.
Beyond the daily curriculum, I am a qualified DSL, meaning the safety and welfare of every child is at the forefront of everything I do.
I am deeply enthusiastic about child development and believe that every interaction is an opportunity for a "teachable moment" and I strive to create a safe, stimulating environment where children feel empowered to explore, learn, and reach their full potential.
