About Us

Kids Planet Mansion House

Kids Planet Mansion House is an exclusive nursery for staff and students at the University of Oxford. Conveniently located between Summertown and Sunnymead, the nursery is well-connected by public transport and offers easy access to the city centre ideal for busy families.

Set in a charming building with a cosy, home-from-home feel, our nursery provides expert care and education for children aged 3 months to 5 years. Our highly qualified and passionate team creates a nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and inspired to explore, learn, and grow. With regular stay-and-play sessions, open days, and wellbeing coffee mornings, we also build strong partnerships with families, helping you feel involved every step of the way.

Our central location gives children rich opportunities to learn beyond the nursery walls. With nearby parks, libraries, cafés, and shops, we regularly venture out into the local community to build real-world connections. From sports coaching and music sessions to charity shop visits and field play, every day is filled with opportunities to build confidence, independence, and curiosity.

A warm and curious start

Space to Grow

At Mansion House, we offer a nurturing setting where children develop independence, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning. Indoors, our calm and engaging rooms invite discovery and creativity. Outdoors, children benefit from a safe playground and expansive green field spaces maintained by the University of Oxford, perfect for exploring nature, playing games, and running free. Every area is carefully planned to support growth, spark curiosity, and help children thrive at their own pace.

Practical help for growing families

Sharing and Supporting

We’re committed to supporting families as well as children. That’s why we’ve created a dedicated area in nursery with a food bank station and a lending library. Whether you’re picking up a book to share at bedtime or accessing essentials during a busy week, this space offers a helping hand when it’s needed most. It’s just one of the ways we build a thoughtful, supportive community around every child.

Local outings, real-world learning

Adventure and Community

From park picnics and nature walks to charity shop visits and bus adventures, we love getting out and about in our local area. These real-world experiences help children build confidence, learn about kindness and community, and explore the world beyond nursery. Whether they’re spotting butterflies in Cutteslowe Park or choosing treasures in the high street, every outing is filled with fun, discovery, and learning through play.
