As a teacher myself, I am very impressed by the centre.
My 2 girls aged 6 and 8 love going to the before and after school club. The staff are always very friendly and helpful and professional.

My little boy loves coming to Kids Allowed, he always runs into prep school. He has been with Kids Allowed since he was 14 months old. The staff have helped my son grown into a lovely little boy. They have always gone above and beyond for my son to which I am so grateful for.

I have been a childminder for the last 14 years, my children who attend the afterschool club are very settled and really enjoy coming to the club. I was a little worried as they had never been in a setting. Sometimes my children don't want to come home. I am extremely happy that they enjoy it so much.
The staff are friendly and professional at all times. Thank you Kids Allowed Knutsford.

My daughter has loved nursery so far. The staff have been attentive, caring and listened to us as a family. We've watched our daughter's confidence grow and loved seeing the special bond develop with staff. The activities that she's been involved with sound so much fun and the photo's home have made
us feel involved as a family. We especially like that the day is so child let, she can choose what she wants to play with and the staff build on her interests.

My son started Kids Allowed at 13 months and is now 36 months.
The standard of care he has been given has been excellent.
The knowledge of all the staff helped him develop and grow into the confident happy boy he is today.
Each day his handover is personal, highlighting his interests and what he
has achieved in the day and told ways we, as parents, can help to develop him further outside of nursery too.
He is always excited to come to nursery and has made bonds with all his key persons and staff over the years.

My youngest came to Kids Allowed Knutsford in 2017 after my eldest left to go to school, I found the nursery to be fun, engaging and full of love for both of my children. Each key person my children had knew them well and my children loved going to them in the mornings. They always came home full of
stories and covered in messy play activities. They had the best days!.

An exceptional nursery with amazing staff and purpose-built facilities. The set up is very professional and without a doubt one of, if not the best nurseries in Cheshire. I think one of the attributes which make Kids Allowed, Knutsford stand out from the crowd is the staff. They are always very positive,
happy and genuinely care and go the extra mile for the children.

My children have both been at Kids Allowed Knutsford from very early ages. They have not only enjoyed the whole Kids Allowed experience and made friends for life but the support they have had from the amazing staff has given both my children the best start in life. They have grown in confidence. The
prep school at Kids Allowed Knutsford set my children up ready for school with PE lessons to educational daily trips and teaching time. I just can't recommend a better start in life for any child.

Since my little boy has started at Kids Allowed Knutsford at the age of 7 months the staff have been extremely helpful, caring and made me feel so at ease leaving him for the 1st time when I went back to work. You are always greeted by happy smiley faces and they are always happy to help if you have
any questions. Now in Waddlers he is developing faster than I could have imagined and is doing so well.
The nursery is always very clean and tidy and the variety of food they get is amazing and I feel this has helped in him not being a fussy eater.

The care my child receives is fantastic.


Kids Allowed is so nurturing and loving. The facilities are fantastic and the children are taken on lots of great trips.


My only concern is the quality of "teaching". My child has been taught to say "them shoes" instead of "those shoes". I don't think the

grammar/vocab of the staff is always up to scratch.

My children have attended since 10 months of age and now the eldest has just started primary school. In every room, we have received excellent care, support in a loving, safe and nurturing environment which is age and ability appropriate.


The staff are friendly and approachable, nothing is too much

trouble for them. The flexibility in swapping sessions is great and the wrap around care provided is excellent. I don't know how I would have managed without this nursery. The biggest test of all, my children absolutely love attending and run in happily each day smiling.

Nursery and staff are amazing, my daughter has numerous allergies and the staff have been great in ensuring she is monitored and her food is as it should be for her. When she has had reactions, small or extremely bad, it was handled brilliantly. I wouldn't want anyone else looking after her as I have

My daughter absolutely loves Kids Allowed Knutsford. She looks forward to it and is always so excited on a nursery day and has a fabulous time. Her confidence has improved beyond any expectation I had given that she is currently only attending a couple of sessions a week. She has a fun packed time doing
lots of interesting activities and is always happy to talk about all of the lovely things she has done.


The staff are amazing with my daughter and treat her like an individual which is very reassuring for me.

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.
