My son recently moved into the preschool room and was welcomed and made to feel at home straight away. The staff there are excellent at keeping him entertained and I can see a genuine improvement already in his learning.
I couldn't recommend Kids Allowed enough and feel happy and confident my son is
happy and safe at all times. 5*

My son has been here for three months now and absolutely loves it.
The staff and team members in the baby room are brilliant with him and his eyes always light up when we drop him off.

Kids Allowed has been fantastic for our two children. Over the last four years both boys have thrived.
The staff are caring and professional, activities are diverse and educational, some fab trips too.
I have always had complete confidence in leaving our children.

My son loves coming to Kids Allowed. Not only do they offer a large array of activities that we couldn't do at home but their love, affection and learning he receives is top notch.
My boy loves coming to nursery and I like to think it has added to his development and general enjoyment of life.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son is so happy at Kids Allowed. Every morning when I take him, he can't wait to see the nursery staff and his room buddies. He always has a beaming smile whenever we walk into reception.
I feel like the Kids Allowed team really make an effort to know every child and whilst it is one of the larger
nurseries in the area, it has a real family feel which I love.
I feel like my son is learning essential self- care skills, and that he is really encouraged to explore and learn at his own pace. The team are really imaginative with their activities, and I love that they go out on regular trips in the local area.
I am really happy with the food at nursery too and feel that my son eats well whilst he is there. He loves the fresh fruit at the end of the day.
Thanks, Kids Allowed for looking after our little boy so well whilst we're at work!

My son has been attending breakfast club and after-school sessions since September and we have been bowled over by how brilliant the manager and the team have been during this time.
Nothing is too much trouble and I can go about my day safe in the knowledge that my son is happy and well cared for before
and after school.

Review from Charlie H (Mother of Child) published on 6 March 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been so pleased with our choice of Kids Allowed Knutsford. Our little boy started there at 11 months and naturally took a few weeks to settle. The staff did all they could to help with this process and were very reassuring to mum (which I needed!). Since then he has never looked back and clearly
loves it. They have one-way windows so you can check up on them as you arrive to collect them and more often than not my son has a smile on his face which I think says a lot. Another thing I like is that they frequently take the kids out on day trips and encourage them to play outside and explore. They also have an on-site sensory room which the kids love and they frequently do messy play, meaning you don't have to do it at home! My son has an egg allergy and they have been very professional. A special mention must go to the supervisor of the baby room and her team who are all lovely and genuinely enthusiastic about their jobs and proud of the care they provide. And so they should be.

Our daughter started in the baby room when she was only 9 months old. As first-time parents, we were very anxious about leaving her full time but she loved it and a huge thanks to all the people who helped us with this.
Very friendly and accommodating staff and a lovely environment to grow and learn.

My little boy has settled in so well, he has grown in confidence so much and is starting to really show signs of noticeable development with speech and skills.
He really enjoys coming into the nursery and has a great relationship with his key worker and staff.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.917)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.917) out of 10 for Kids Planet Knutsford is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.917 for Kids Planet Knutsford is calculated as follows: ( (290 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 312 Ratings = 4.917
  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 Knutsford is based on 26 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 120 number of registered child places is 24, which has been reached with 26 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.
