About Us

Kids Planet Chester

Kids Planet Chester is a purpose-built nursery located within four acres of private land owned by Chester Rugby Club. Opened in February 2021, the nursery caters for babies through to preschoolers and offers a calm, nurturing environment where children are supported to learn, grow, and thrive. Each of our bright, airy rooms is equipped with age-appropriate furniture and high-quality natural resources, creating a welcoming space for child-led learning and discovery.

Our highly qualified team brings over 50 years of combined experience, and we’re proud to have achieved Udeskole accreditation – our unique nature-based learning approach. Children make full use of our forest area, developing confidence, curiosity, and a love of the outdoors. We also provide enriching opportunities such as daily sports sessions with our in-house sports coach, a sensory room for exploration and calm, and home learning resources like adventure backpacks and our parent-child lending library.

Families are always part of the experience here. From regular stay and play sessions to our tea and coffee station in reception, we make every effort to create a friendly, inclusive atmosphere where everyone feels at home. For added convenience, we offer secure door entry, visitor parking, and a strong sense of community at the heart of our nursery.

Forest learning the Udeskole way

Outdoor Adventures Daily

We’re proud to be an accredited Udeskole setting, offering daily opportunities for nature-based learning. Our nursery is surrounded by acres of green space, including a dedicated forest area where children can explore, play, and learn outside the classroom. Udeskole, meaning “outdoor school,” helps children build confidence, teamwork, and resilience while connecting with the natural world. Whether it’s climbing, collecting leaves, or storytelling under the trees, our outdoor sessions support wellbeing, curiosity, and real-world understanding in every season.

Sensory room for calm and curiosity

Space to Discover

Our dedicated sensory room offers a peaceful, engaging space where children can explore light, sound, texture, and movement in a safe and supportive environment. Designed to support sensory development and emotional regulation, the room is especially beneficial for children with additional needs. Whether it’s enjoying gentle lights, soft textures, or quiet moments, this dedicated space helps little ones grow in confidence, independence, and self-awareness.

Local trips and real-world learning

Out and About

At Kids Planet Chester, learning goes beyond the nursery walls. Our children love getting out into the local community – whether it’s babies strolling to the duck pond for a splashy morning or toddlers enjoying a visit to Hay Rack Farm. These real-world experiences build confidence, spark new interests, and connect children with the world around them.
