About Kids Planet Willerby
At Kids Planet Willerby, we provide high-quality early years education and care in a warm, welcoming environment where children feel safe, valued and inspired to explore the world around them. Our team supports every child’s individual interests and development, helping them build confidence, independence and a love of learning.
Situated close to the centre of Willerby and around 15 minutes from Hull city centre, our purpose-built nursery provides an engaging setting for children to learn, play and grow.
We are proud to have completed our INSPIRE Accreditation, recognising our commitment to creating meaningful experiences that encourage curiosity, awe and wonder. We believe some of the most valuable learning comes from children’s natural curiosity and opportunities to explore, ask questions and make discoveries for themselves.
Our connection with the local community is an important part of nursery life. Through regular visits to local shops and Haltemprice Library, children can build confidence, develop communication skills and learn more about the community around them.
We understand that choosing a nursery is an important decision for your family. We value strong, trusting relationships with parents and carers, working together to support your child’s wellbeing, learning and development throughout their early years.
