Kids Planet at Sheepbridge, is an absolutely phenomenal nursery.
My child's speech, communication and language skills have improved immensely in the time he has spent in the nursery setting.
Staff/management are nothing but amazing!
I have no concerns about the care they provide for my child whilst
at the setting.

My daughter has been going to Kids Planet Sheepbridge for probably nearly a year now.
The setting, staff and management team are all so brilliant I couldn't ask for a better care provider for my daughter. She has been the most happiest at this nursery and looks forward to going each day.
Thank you
to everyone at Sheepbridge for giving our daughter the best start in her life, and the best experience.
She loves preschool.

Absolutely love my little boy's nursery. They fill me with so much confidence after a bad experience with a previous nursery. I'm made to feel my child is actually looked after and cared for, he has fun and he learns. I know if he's hungry he will be fed and it's all nutritional meals as their in-house
cook preps each meal daily. The staff are amazing. So helpful and caring. I have no doubts or worries at all with this nursery. And would highly recommend to anyone. Wish I had found this nursery first.

I am highly impressed by the staff at Kids Planet, Sheepbridge. We've have nothing but positivity and honesty in regard to our son's progress. Ever since being at Kids Planet our son has grown and developed hugely! I can't get over how polite he is always saying please and thank you!
The differentiation

Such an amazing nursery. After a previous bad nursery experience, we were extremely nervous about our daughter returning to a new nursery, but this one has set our minds at ease. All the staff have been so good with our daughter, and the nursery is always so clean. We would highly recommend.

Highly recommend this Nursery to anyone. I moved my son to this Nursery as had a bad experience previously and I couldn’t be happier, they have been brilliant. To start with the flexibility and reliability with hours/ days are great, the meals and choice of food are also fantastic with my son trying
loads of new things and loving them. But the thing I love the most is the staff and activities they do with the children, I can actually see a bond between them and my son and he is happy every day when we walk in and that speaks a thousand words to me.

I would recommend this nursery to everyone, the staff who work here are approachable, very friendly and professional. My little boy settled here very well and quickly. They have outdoor space which the kids love. My little boy eats here but not at home so I am really impressed. They keep him busy all
day long with activities. Feels more of a family than a business. Thank you.

I am very pleased with Kids Planet Sheepbridge. Since my little girl started she is excited to attend every time she has a session there! All the staff are very friendly and kind and caring towards my daughter. They always have plenty of time at pickup to discuss her day. There are often lots of updates
throughout the day which is nice to see how she is doing.

Kids Planet Sheepbridge have supported us as a family in the development of introducing our son to nursery. Our son needs extra support as he has missed out in social interaction skills during the pandemic. Kids Planet Sheepbridge have adjusted to every need that he requires.

We are very pleased with Kids Planet Sheepbridge. All staff are friendly and welcoming. The staff worked hard during lockdown to keep the nursery going and to keep some normality for the children. We really like that the same staff work with our son as this helps him to settle and grows his confidence.

Phenomenally devoted setting, super friendly and each and every member of staff so hard working it blows me away. Both my children wake up every morning excited for a school day and when they leave ask again if it's school the following day with smiles and excitement on their faces. Amazing setting
to unlock a child's potential and dedicated to ensuring each child's best interests are always forefront of any activity or change to the nursery. You guys are the best!

Since returning after lockdown my little boy has settled back in very well. Staff very friendly when they collect him at the door and when they bring him back. He is shy so he needs a lot of encouragement which is nice. I like the updates on the app which is very comforting. Also nursery manager very
helpful.

An exceptionally well run and caring nursery. The staff know their children on an individual basis. They engage well with them to develop their needs in an holistic way. In terms of parent engagement, their handling of and communication around the pandemic was first-rate. In normal times, they work
with parents to assist with childcare needs, even short notice requests.

We are overwhelmingly pleased with our child's progress since she started at Kids Planet Sheepbridge (formerly Jungle Days) and with the way that the nursery is run. We are safe in the knowledge that she is well looked after and constantly stimulated while making new friends and developing her social
skills. The staff are extremely helpful and support too. We are very happy parents.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.717)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.717) out of 10 for Kids Planet Sheepbridge 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 19 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 4.837 for Kids Planet Sheepbridge is calculated as follows: ( (194 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.837
  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 4.88 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Sheepbridge is based on 19 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 19 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.88
  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.
