Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All the staff are amazing! My child has such a great connection with her key worker, she adores her.


As first time parents, the nursery has always supported us giving us tips and ideas, the most recent one was encouraging our child to brush her teeth. We mentioned to her key worker we were struggling

to get her to do this. By the afternoon a moment had been added to the app where she was learning how to do this in a fun and interactive way, when night time came, she was so excited to brush her teeth. Even now every morning after she has brushed her teeth she says ‘my keyworker will be pleased’- life savers!


My daughter thrives at nursery and loves going in every day.


She’s just started preschool and can already see her becoming more and more independent.


It’s the staff that make this such an enjoyable experience for my daughter. That’s every staff member, when my child was in the baby room to all the staff in toddlers and recently preschool staff.

No complaints, friendly staff, personable, approachable, daughter loves it so cannot complain. Love how flexible you are to adhoc days when needed and my daughter has such a great bond with all the staff, I think that just shows how great the nursery is, never worry when she is in your care.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has built an excellent relationship with his key worker at Burbage Kids Planet. He is always excited to go to her at drop off time and has plenty of smiles for all of the staff.
The app keeps us informed and it is so helpful to know how much he has slept and eaten during the day so we know
what he is going to require from us on an evening.
The only thing that would assist me further would be if the menu was emailed out ahead of the week so that I could meal plan around what he is having at nursery.

Review from Tom G (Father of Child) published on 10 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son is in the preschool at Burbage Kids Planet. I can speak on behalf of myself and my wife that we couldn’t speak highly enough of the nursery and the staff. Two members of staff have been particularly supportive of our son as he has been diagnosed with global development delay, they have gone
over and above with emotional support to us as parents and additional help with our son. This includes helping us with an EHCP application, DLA form and SEND support for the nursery for additional funding to support our son. We see the nursery as an extension of support we have around us to help with our son's additional needs. I would also like to thank the two members of staff who help look after him on a day to day basis, both these staff members especially give us peace of mind he is in safe hands when we are both at work. I would be happy to provide any further testimonials or recommendations - a superb team effort from everyone there. Thank you so much!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.780)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.780) out of 10 for Kids Planet Burbage is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.780 for Kids Planet Burbage is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 214 Ratings = 4.78
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Burbage is based on 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 73 number of registered child places is 14.6, which has been reached with 18 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
