Overview
About Nook Barn
A long-standing and caring team welcomes families to Kids Planet Nook Barn in Cherry Tree, Blackburn. Our converted barn and surrounding gardens have been home to nursery care for more than 30 years. Children can explore outdoors and enjoy sensory experiences indoors, with sports coaching encouraging active play.
Our team adapts activities for children with additional needs, helping them participate in ways that suit their development. Settling-in visits give your child time to become comfortable with our nursery and the people who will care for them. They also let you get a feel for daily life here. We offer term-time places, with parking on site for daily visits.

Chloe Slater
ManagerHello, my name is Chloe and I am the nursery manager at Kids Planet Nook Barn. I have been with Kids Planet for a few years and have grown with the company through starting out as a practitioner and now being a nursery manager. I have 10 years’ experience in early years and hold my BA Honours in early childhood studies. I am often found in the rooms having fun with the children getting messy and diving into some good old role-play! With a great and strong staff team, we pride ourselves in having a home-from-home environment in an old barn-style house, we use lots of natural materials in play and like to give our children new and exciting experiences. I enjoy greeting families morning and evening and my office door is always open if you're ever in need of anything!
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.
