About Us
Kids Planet Mereside Farm
Kids Planet Mereside Farm is set in an idyllic location, nestled within a beautifully converted farmhouse and outbuildings, surrounded by green fields and daily sights of local wildlife and horses. While easily accessible by main roads, the nursery is tucked away down a peaceful lane, creating a quiet and spacious setting that feels a world away from the everyday.
The nursery has been thoughtfully modernised and extended to offer bright, well-equipped indoor spaces and large, varied outdoor areas. These outdoor environments give children plenty of room to explore, play, and build confidence in their physical skills. Our approach embraces the natural surroundings, helping children feel calm, inspired, and connected to the world around them.
Strong partnerships with parents are at the heart of what we do, and many families come to us through personal recommendations. We’re more than just a nursery; we’re a community, and every child who joins us becomes part of our extended family.
