Nursery in Countesthorpe: Leicester

Kids Planet Countesthorpe

Kids Planet Countesthorpe (Formerly Hunny Comb, Countesthorpe nursery) is a welcoming nursery located on the corner of Foston Road and Leicester Road, offering early years education and care in a friendly, community-focused setting.

Our nursery is thoughtfully organised into age appropriate rooms for babies, toddlers, and preschool children, supporting every stage of early development in a safe and nurturing environment. Indoors, children benefit from well equipped spaces, including a dedicated dining and indoor physical play area, alongside features such as air conditioning and secure access systems for added reassurance.

Outdoors, our all weather garden provides opportunities for daily play, exploration, and fresh air throughout the year, encouraging children to stay active and curious.

Kids Planet Countesthorpe creates a supportive environment where children can build confidence, develop independence, and thrive.

Nicola Hoy

Manager

I have over 17 years of experience working in childcare, supporting children through some of the most important stages of their early development. I hold a Level 3 qualification in childcare and currently serve as a Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) and Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCo), ensuring that every child is safe, supported, and able to access inclusive learning opportunities.

I am enthusiastic about working as part of a team and believe that strong collaboration is key to providing the best possible care and learning experiences. I am passionate about creating opportunities that encourage children to explore, develop confidence, and reach their full potential at their own pace.

My approach focuses on fostering curiosity, independence, and a love of learning, while maintaining a strong commitment to safeguarding and inclusion, ensuring each child has the foundation they need to thrive both now and in the future.
