Overview

About Eccles

Kids Planet Eccles has been caring for local families since 1999 and is close to the town centre and Salford Royal Hospital. Babies through to preschoolers have spacious outdoor areas to enjoy, and regular trips to nearby parks and the library help them discover the world around them.

Our experienced team supports children with special educational needs as part of everyday nursery life. We consider how each child learns and takes part, adjusting support to their needs rather than expecting everyone to do things in the same way. Settling-in visits help your child become familiar with us before starting. Term-time places are also available.

    Christina Anderson

    Manager

    Hi, I'm Christina, Nursery Manager at Kids Planet Eccles.

    I have been part of the Kids Planet family for over 10 years and have more than 12 years of experience working with children aged 12 weeks to 5 years. Throughout my career, I have developed a passion for supporting every child's individual journey and helping them thrive in a nurturing, inclusive environment.

    I also have over five years of experience as a Lead SENDCo, working closely with children and families with additional needs to ensure they receive the best possible support and opportunities to flourish.

    I am currently completing a Foundation Degree in Children's Learning and Development, further enhancing my knowledge and understanding of early years education. My experience and dedication have enabled me to progress into the role of Nursery Manager, where I am proud to lead a team committed to providing exceptional care and learning experiences for every child and family who joins us.

Adventures Beyond the Classroom

Bringing Learning to Life with Outdoor Play

At Kids Planet, we believe the great outdoors is one of the best learning environments. Our unique nature-based learning encourages children to explore, take on new challenges, and develop essential life skills through hands-on outdoor experiences. Whether it’s discovering wildlife, growing vegetables, or engaging in active play, we provide endless opportunities for children to learn, grow, and thrive in the natural world.
