About Us
Kids Planet Henley 1
Henley 1, founded in 2002, provides high-quality care and early years education for children aged 6 weeks to 3 years. Following the success of this nursery, Henley 2 opened nearby in 2009, offering a smooth transition for children when they turn three.
We are proud to have completed our Inspire accreditation and achieved Eco Warrior status, recognising our commitment to high-quality learning and sustainability. Outdoor learning plays an important role in daily life at Henley 1, with our Udeskole approach helping children build independence, resilience, and a strong connection to nature through meaningful first-hand experiences. From firepit cooking and sensory nature walks to trips into the local community and visits to the nearby nature reserve, we provide rich opportunities for exploration that spark curiosity and broaden horizons.
At Henley 1, every child is encouraged to explore with confidence, develop independence, and foster a love of learning from the very start, supported by a nurturing and passionate team.
Our setting is open from 7.30am to 6.00pm, with core session options including 8.00am–5.30pm, 8.00am–12.30pm, and 1.00pm–5.30pm to suit a range of family needs.
