Planet Kids at Wellington prides itself on offering the absolute best experience for its students. Led by strong directors and a team of education professionals, the school focuses on safety, security, academics and fun! Planet Kids at Wellington is independently owned and not affiliated with any other Planet Kids.
Our infant program is for children between 6 weeks old and 12 months old. We have several different classes based on the age range of the students. Overall, this program focuses on warmth and nurturing. We use a curriculum called Beyond Cribs and Rattles, which delivers interesting stimulation to each child.
Therefore these children enter our 4 year old preschool classes. Our teachers offer a very robust curriculum, focusing on all of the skills necessary to further your child's academic career, while keeping everything fun. Students learn to work with shapes, colors, letters and all kinds of other material.
Planet Kids at Wellington is a certified center designated for participation in Florida's Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten program (VPK). The VPK program is a statewide effort to enhance the educational readiness for students entering kindergarten. The curriculum focuses on reading, writing, and social skills to prepare children for kindergarten.
We offer a variety of extracurricular programs throughout the day. Students throughout the day visit our theater, our indoor themed playground (Ocean Village), our art room and our music room. Starting at age 4, students can take private violin lessons with our elementary school violin teacher. We also offer dance classes, soccer and karate.

Really the attitude and pure disregard for class and professionalism of the staff at the front desk is such a shame! Especially Ms. Cherene. Of all the times I have been there as parent I have never seen her smile or even talk nicely to me. She is rude, and short and not at all the example of someone you want doing intakes for prospective students. She is literally the reason we pulled my son out of the preschool and never sent him back to Wellington Prep even thought that's where we wanted him to go. I tried again the next year to tour the school and once again Cherene not only made me wait

We love planet kids!! Both my boys have attended my oldest was in Mrs. Vicky's VPK class he is now 8 and is reading far above his reading level and he still talks about how much he loved being In her class she is such a great teacher! My 2 year old was in Mrs Natasha's class this was his first time he attended daycare and I can't begin to explain… how amazing Mrs. Natasha is she goes above and beyond I always knew exactly how his day went he looked forward to going to school and seeing her she always kept me in the loop and focused on each child's individual need we are forever grateful

I rarely ever leave reviews but something has been pulling at my heart to do so in order to protect children. This place is so extremely overcrowded that is is unsafe. In the afternoon, my daughter was always in a different room with a new teacher that didn't even know her name. My last straw was when they told me that their dad had picked her up one day and when I was absolutely certain he hadn't (I called him and he thought I was crazy for a split second) I wound up finding her out on the playground after 15 minutes of sheer panic. More times than I can count, we were sent home with

My nephew is in the 3 year old program and absolutely loves this school. He loves the Fun Friday activities and is learning so much. Security is top notch and their Security guard is one of his favorites. He loves his teachers and we couldn’t ask for a better administration team at the front desk! We highly recommend this school and the family like atmosphere.

Both my girls attend Planet Kids. There are not any words to describe the love and confidence we feel towards everyone at the school. All of the teachers, administration and assistants are exceptional. We visited many schools and found this is the only school with a full time security guard and a school nurse. This is not the normal for a private preschool. We are now looking forward to the next phase into Wellington Prep in a few years. Forever Grateful

The twos class was awful. Many kids for one teacher. After 3-4 pm there are still 15 kids in the class for only one teacher. Been there for a while during the class, saw the children eat, going to the the bathroom.. never saw them washing their hands.. no wonder why my child got stomach viruses every month. Sorry I don't think this is a good school.

Planet Kids of Wellington on Lake Worth Rd is exceptional in every aspect and deserves a 7 star rating in 5 was the maximum. My husband is also in the education business and have visited over 20 schools before the decision was made on planet kids. They have delivered on every front . My daughter is in Mrs Adas class Glow worms. She has excelled educationally since her arrival and her teacher is the best l have seen so far. She and Miss Carlyna are the consummate professionals. Miss Sandy the Principal and her staff are also exceptional and l have recommended several parents to send there kids there

Both of my daughters used to attend this school. One from 8 months to 21 months and the other 2.5 years to 4.5 years. I can't speak enough praise of the care and time they take. Their "gifted" VPK program is outstanding and Ms Thenesha is one the most involved and compassionate teachers I have ever met. The school really goes out of their way to ensure all children have an extraordinary experience plus they have awesome playgrounds and a very safe check in and check out system. Unfortunately we had to leave due to a move but plan to go back over the summer!

Horrible first experience with daycares. Mrs. Dunia was amazing with my daughter when she first started attending Planet Kids. However, when my daughter was moved over to the 2 year olds room, things went downhill. She wouldn't want to stay and cried that she wanted to leave although she had been in the same daycare for two months. The teacher wasn't attentive and nurturing. Also, she started coming down with frequent stomach viruses. We visited the pediatrician so many times in such a short being of time that she suggested we consider switching daycares. I finally pulled her out of daycare because

Sad to know that PK is all about making a profit during the Hurricane Irma Recovery. Charging full tuition when your facility and many others have been closed for days. As an educator, I understand the work you do is valued. Yet, be fair to parents... it's been a trying week. Be a good neighbor too, be sensitive to the displacements, travel out-of-state, closures, power outages & curfews. I expect this & more. I leave you all with my most prized possession.

I worked here for years and had the pleasure of having my own kids attend from infants through age 4. The teachers and staff here truly care about the children like they are their own. There is a strong Balance of play and academics in which I watched classes full of students thrive . The only reason I left was because my family relocated out of South Florida. It is a beautiful school to be a part of and feels like a big family.
