About Us
Kids Planet Higher Broughton
Kids Planet Higher Broughton is a bright and welcoming nursery situated in a former Police Station on the corner of Park Lane and Bury New Road. Our unique building offers large, open-plan rooms with direct access to secure outdoor play areas for each age group, as well as a separate roof-terrace playground exclusively for our preschool children.
We are proud to create a strong sense of belonging, where every child feels valued from the moment they arrive. As part of the Kids Planet family, we believe every interest is a teachable moment, using children’s natural curiosity to shape meaningful play and learning. Mealtimes introduce a range of global flavours and textures in a relaxed, sociable way that encourages adventurous eating and independence.
Our dedicated team bring experience, warmth, and a passion for early years, supported by ongoing professional development. This ensures a safe, reflective, and nurturing environment where children develop the confidence and social skills they need for their move to school.
