My son attended this nursery from 7 months until 3 years of age and honestly had the best experience here. He suffers with a bowel condition and the staff and chef did everything to accomodate his needs. Everyone was friendly and updates were given throughout the day of my child. I would always 100%
recommend this nursery.

Our two-year-old daughter has thrived since joining Kids Planet Henley 1. The staff are caring, attentive, and highly professional, creating a safe and nurturing environment where she feels happy and engaged. Communication with parents is excellent, and the nursery offers a well-balanced mix of structured
activities and free play. We've been very impressed with her development and are confident she is in very good hands.

Kids planet is the best nursery I've ever seen. My eldest daughter went to two nurseries and we just had to settle whereas with our second we decided to take our time and assess options.


We came across kids planet and from the tour we was sold. The staff are amazing, the energy and attitude is second

to none. My daughter has excelled and gains so much confidence since being here we could not be any happier.


Thank you to all the staff at kids planet Henley. You guys are amazing!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son started with the nursery in March. He is now 11 months old and has come on leaps and bounds since starting here. The staff are all friendly, caring and informative. They do a range of sensory play already, including painting and water play. They go outside every day to play in the garden. The
outdoor space is good but no green area or woodland which I would like. The room is well equipped with a separate, calm sleep space. They were happy to follow our baby's routine. They have Alexas in the room to play music which is lovely. There are regular day trips - our son has been to the park and library already in two months of being at the nursery 3 days a week. There is a good range of food and safeguarding wise they have a porch before a secure front door and each room has it's own code to gain entry which only staff have access to. Any accidents are documented and we are made aware either by phone call or on collection. Overall we love the nursery and are very happy with them.
Reply from Ann Clarke at Kids Planet Henley 1Thank you for your kind words your little one has settled well and we look forward to watching him grow and being part of his early years journey. We have recently began our journey on Udeskole as a nursery and this is providing opportunities for children to explore natural spaces away from the setting providing children with a wide range of experiences in nature. If you have any questions regarding this please speak with a team member- we will be holding a parents evening in the near future regarding this.

Lovely staff, always a warm welcoming and that gives me a sense of relief that my little boy is going to have a really nice day. He loves going into his room. The staff meet his needs and push his boundaries to achieve his goals. I know my boy is in the best of hands and having lots of fun. I love the

Choosing a nursery is always difficult, however, Kids Planet Henley Road is amazing, I will recommend it to anyone and send any future children there too.
The food is fantastic and varied, the app/updates are great for peace of mind and the activities and learning they do are amazing (I've really
seen my little one come on since starting there).
My boy started there at 1 and is now almost 18 months old. He was very nervous to go, but the staff there have had patience and nurtured him into loving it.

My little girl absolutely loves going to this nursery. The staff are so bubbly and attentive to every child. My little girl can not wait for the day to start just so she can go to nursery and never wants to leave.
You get updates throughout the day via the app and at the end of each day you get an
update from staff of their day.
My daughter has learnt to fully walk and coming along with her speech due to the staff at the nursery. The staff work with the family to if you require any help or a listening ear. One of the best nurseries around and would highly recommend this nursery. 5 stars all around, with learning, caring, informative and general kindness. Thank you for all you have done for both my girls.

Fab nursery! My son has attended this nursery since the age of 1, he absolutely loves it here, the staff are kind and compassionate. He formed a close bond with one member of staff. The only fault I would say is moving him to the sister nursery once aged 3, this made me very sad as I know he bonded
well at Kids Planet 1.
Reply from Ann Clarke at Kids Planet Henley 1Thank you for your kind words. It was lovely to be a part of your journey and see the development and growth during his time here. I have no doubt he will continue to flourish at Henley 2 and will form new attachments.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son attended the setting 5+ years ago and my foster child has been attending since January this year. It was a no-brainer as my first experience was so positive. I have built a great relationship with all the staff as has the child in my care and his development in such a short space of time is a
credit to what a great job they all do. Nothing is ever too much but most importantly it is a home away from home. My children spent nearly 10 hours a day here to enable me to work and I couldn't choose a better bunch of people to help me raise them. This is also evident in their staff retention as a majority of the staff are the same and many have worked there for 10+ years. The children have a great variety of activities throughout the day and often take days out to the park and library. They honestly just do an amazing job and I would recommend them over and over again.
Reply from Ann Clarke at Kids Planet Henley 1Thank you for your kind words and we are so happy you came back to us, it's fantastic seeing both children grow.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.930)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.930) out of 10 for Kids Planet Henley 1 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 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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 4.930 for Kids Planet Henley 1 is calculated as follows: ( (460 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 488 Ratings = 4.93
  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 Henley 1 is based on 41 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 63 number of registered child places is 12.6, which has been reached with 41 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.
