Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.

Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordWhat wonderful feedback, thank you so much. There is nothing we want more than to hear how excited children are to attend the centre, it's what we get out of bed for each day. I'm so happy that we are meeting your expectations.

Kids Allowed Knutsford is the only nursery I considered six years ago. They offered the flexibility I needed to enable me to continue to work and so much more. The staff are excellent and create a safe, fun environment for the children.


They are professional and trained so well in all they do. I

couldn't recommend them highly enough.
Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordThank you so much Claire, this feedback is lovely. I'm so pleased that the flexibility of our times and hours has supported your busy family life. Training our team is also hugely important to us and it's great to hear that this shines through.

Both my children have attended Kids Allowed since being babies and I have been so happy with the care given in all aspects of this nursery.


Both my children feel happy and loved coming here and that really helps when leaving them.


The staff have always been so supportive and personal with my kids

and my whole family. They really can not do enough for you. That's key workers, management and all reception staff. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I love Kids Allowed. The staff are friendly, welcoming and always happy to help.


My little one always comes out with a smile on his face. Never a bad word to be said about children or staff. The unit is clean, safe and warm and all equipment is safe, new and top standard. Clean floors, reception

and hallways. Food is great, lots of different foods given so the children try things that home may not offer.


We are always kept up to date on upcoming events and courses offered to parents. We love it here. Amazing. Well done everyone.

Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordThank you so much for this lovely review Harriet. I really pleased that we are meeting all your expectations. Our chefs and housekeeper will be so pleased to hear that their passion shows through in the centre too.

The staff are friendly and loving and my daughter is a more confident little girl since being here. Always leaving something new.

We have been part of the Kids Allowed family for the last five years. I am so thankful that I have the opportunity to send my children to a nursery that exceeds all my expectations, is forward thinking, always open to new ideas and at the forefront of exploring new and exciting ways of aiding children's
development. I kept my daughter at the pre-school at Kids Allowed and she was more than ready for school once she started.
Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordThank you so much Pippa for taking the time to provide such lovely feedback. We always aspire to lead excellence in childcare and it makes me so happy to hear you embracing our etho too. Our prep school has been open for 3 years now and I'm so happy you loved our unique idea and we delivered past your expectations.

I have been using Kids Allowed for the last 6 years for both of my children. I don't worry about my children when they are in their care. They take the time to get to know my children and are aware of how to stop tears at drop off. The leadership is outstanding and they listen to parents.
Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordThank you so much for providing this amazing feedback. I'm so happy that you go to work with no worries after drop of, that's what we are here for. Listening to parent feedback and implementing ideas is really important to us and I'm so pleased you agree.

My children have been coming to Kids Allowed since 2011 with one child now in prep school and another in "Dave's Room" before and after school and in the holidays.


Kids Allowed is a brilliant, stimulating and caring place and I have always been extremely happy with every element, including all the

staff. Kids Allowed enables me to work knowing my kids are happy, stimulated and cared for.
Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordThank you for such lovely feedback Ruth. Time has flown and its great to hear that you benefit from using our wrap around school care as well as the nursery side.

Review from J H (Mother of Child) published on 3 October 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Kids Allowed is an excellent nursery. My daughter was shy and sensitive when she joined and staff across the nursery have nurtured her and encouraged her confidence so she has developed into a much more confident individual. The staff in the rooms deserve particular credit as my daughter often talks
about how much she likes them and pretends to be them!


She enjoys the food too. The only slight drawback is if you can't attend you lose your money for days. Even if you cancel way in advance - however, I believe this may be the case at a majority of nurseries.

Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordThank you for your great feedback. We appreciate all feedback we receive. It is lovely to read about how our team have made a positive impact on your daughter, it's been lovely to watch her change over the last few years.

Review from Nicci C (Mother of Child) published on 3 October 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started at Kids Allowed when she was 18 months old. I can honestly say that there has never been a day when she has not been anything other than 100% happy and full of excitement when I have picked her up. The staff are very welcoming and always ready with a big hug when she arrives in the
morning. She goes out on regular trips and has developed a good circle of friends and comes home full of stories and news.


I have felt totally included and supported throughout her journey at Kids Allowed, I particularly appreciate the morning tea that is available.

Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordThank you Nicci for the lovely feedback. I'm so pleased to read that we are looking after you both at Kids Allowed. We are so lucky to have the transport to go on trips every day and i'm pleased that you love that about us too.

I have had a great experience for both my kids in Kids Allowed. The youngest has been in since the baby room and has grown into a confident, social little boy. My eldest came in at preschool and has loved all the activities and staff. She has had a few issues with leaving me in the morning in her transition
to prep school, but the staff have been great and taken their time to help her. Couldn't recommend Kids Allowed enough.

Kids Allowed has always provided us with constant reassurance that our children are happy, cared for and nurtured during their time at nursery. The nursery itself has such a high quality of provision; from the food, to the wonderful trips out they take. Both my children head in smiling and leave beaming
from a day of fun, education, and care.

My son started at Kids Allowed in 2013 when he was 14 months old. Since starting he has received nothing but care and love from everybody in the setting. Moving him to Kids Allowed was the best decision I have made. My son has come on leaps and bounds and that is down to the support he has been given
at Kids Allowed. He has now moved on to his next chapter at school.
Reply from Leann Jackson at Kids Planet KnutsfordHi Marie. Thank you for taking the time to provide this lovely feedback. It has been amazing to see your son develop and grow over the last 3 years. We will miss seeing him everyday but it was lovely waving off the confident prep schooler he had become.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.920)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.920) 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.920 for Kids Planet Knutsford is calculated as follows: ( (302 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.92
  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 27 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 27 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.
