Review from Laura M (Mother of Child) published on 17 March 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attends nursery here once a week and has done for around 18 months. She is two years old and loves going to nursery. She gets excited when she sees some of the staff and always looks like she has had a great day. The staff keep you up to date on changes, sleep, food and activities when possible
which always puts my mind at rest knowing she is happy. She has progressed lots since attending and even though it is one day a week we have seen a huge difference particularly in her speech. The staff are friendly, polite, nurturing and appear to work extremely hard. The resource facilities are lovely, the menu seems varied and healthy. Overall, we couldn’t be happier. I am a teacher myself and feel happy that she is looked after well and makes good progress.

The staff are very friendly and are amazing when children get upset; when parents are leaving. They put parents at ease as well as the children, and give feedback daily of food eaten, nappy changes and activities.
Healthy, fresh snacks and meals are served.
The nursery and hallways are very clean.

I have been using this nursery since 2017. I am comfortable with this nursery and the staff even though in 2019 they were taken over by a new company things still remain good. My children have always been really happy here and enjoyed their time here. Staff members have made every effort to make me
and my children feel welcome. My son always has a good dietary intake and gets to enjoy the outdoor areas if he chooses to regardless of weather. The nursery have also had yearly family fun days which we enjoyed. They also asked parents what they would like from the nursery or suggestions and therefore parents feel valued.
Nursery is open good hours and even have an after-school club and breakfast club for older children. I recommend this nursery

Staff are great, they communicate daily. They understand a child's separation anxiety and help the child to work through it. My child loves nursery while there, and she is fully occupied and wants to learn. The room and hallway are always clean and tidy. Nappies are changed regularly.


I am so happy

I chose The Jungle Day Nursery.

Both my son and daughter go to the nursery. My son has been there from baby room to pre-school. They both love it. They have had times they don't want Mummy to go but the staff are fantastic with them giving them reassurance.
When my little boy has been changing rooms they have done lots of settling
sessions to help that progression. Make it feel more of a flow and not a big jump. Staff are always friendly, helpful and work with parents as well as the children.

Our daughter really enjoys nursery, she teaches us the songs she learns and tells us about her day. I would like the quality of the food to be improved but it is varied and they try new things.


Any questions and queries and complaints are dealt with quickly and professionally. Our daughter has come

on a long way since she started nursery at 8.5 months old.

Really good nursery, brought my daughter on a lot, very friendly staff who encouraged her to mix with other children and joining in doing things together, really brought her out of her shy zone. My daughter really enjoys The Jungle Nursery and can't wait to come the following day, comes out every time
with a big smile, enjoys her days always.

The Jungle has been really good. My son really struggled to settle but they have been brilliant. I always felt confident leaving him and knew I would be contacted if necessary. They always keep me well informed. He loves it now, he eats well and can always tell me what activities he's enjoyed. He has
good consistent relationships.

The fact my little girl (nearly two) cheers each time we pull into the nursery car park is testament to the Jungle Nursery team in itself!


My daughter has been at Jungle Nursery for nearly a year, and we love it. The staff are professional but you can see they genuinely care about the children and

their interests. The facilities are great, spacious and well kept. My daughter is happy and evidently learns a lot at Jungle Nursery. Overall I would highly recommend the Jungle Nursery to anyone looking for high quality childcare.

Review from Sarah-Jane A (Mother of Child) published on 13 June 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little girl started nursery in Nov 2015, very unsure at first whether it would be a good idea. Was unsure whether she'd pick up bad habits from other children in all honesty, but really wanted her language to pick up and build her social skills. Jungle Nursery staff have been outstanding and not
only made my little girl excel with her language but she now shows empathy and can relay everything she has done that day with staff and her friends at nursery.


Not only have they supported me (mummy) giving outstanding advice and support but made my little girl so happy to go to nursery that she doesn't even give me a kiss good bye from excitement to play with her friends. Highly recommended by anyone having doubts, best thing I've ever done for building my confidence as a mummy and making my little girl develop in an amazing time scale. Thank you so much, from nursery staff to management your all amazing and go above and beyond to make everyone happy.

My son loves going to nursery and I have felt completely at ease returning to work full time knowing that he is happy, settled and well looked after. The staff are very friendly and extremely helpful and have helped make the transition so much easier for both myself and my son. The management have been
supportive and accommodating in changing days and working around my changing needs. Highly recommend.

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.
