Review from Lori N (Mother of Child) published on 6 March 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Kids Planet have been amazing from day one with my son! It’s an overwhelming process going from spending every day with your child to ending maternity and letting them go, but straight away they made me and my husband feel confident and cared for and that our son would be in the best hands- and that
is true! He is a wild child, but the team have been amazing and nurturing and helping him to develop and encouraging him! The staff in Babies 1 and Babies 2 are a credit to Kids Planet and we can not thank them enough for taking care of our little heart!
My child has multiple allergies too and they have been great accommodating this. The updates on the app are amazing and the communication has been fantastic! The manager is brilliant too - always there to greet you at drop off and pick up and is super friendly and helpful!
You can tell the staff actually care about the children and they know my child so well and that is really important when you’re entrusting your child with others!
Reply from Ann Clarke at Kids Planet Henley 1Thank you for your lovely words, we really do have the best team! We have enjoyed watching your little one grow and are proud to be part of his early years.

Happy for my child to be here. Staff work hard to make time here fun and interesting for child. They promote independence and have been very supportive with potty training. My child has really warmed to staff, who show a great deal of care. Outdoor facilities could be improved, but overall happy with
nursery. Management are present and approachable.

My child has been attending the nursery since he was approximately 9 months old. He has always been excited about going to nursery. Over the last year he has been really supported in terms of his speech and language development and the nursery have adapted their skills to help encourage and support
him to be able to flourish. My son will now come home and tell me the things he has done in the day and will mention staff names, of whom he has enjoyed playing with, it’s a pleasure to hear him trying to tell his story and interpretation of the day.

Our daughter has settled in really well here. She was very unsettled when she first visited, and the staff worked well with us to find a way to transition her into their care. We get lovely updates throughout the day about what she is up to. She is well-fed and enjoys a variety of meals each day. The
staff have got to know us and our daughter well, and we are pleased with everything we have experienced.

Really trust in the nursery to bring out my little girl’s full potential. She is awaiting an autism assessment and all I have had is the upmost support. We really work together to help support her and that’s priceless to me. Thanks guys, amazing work.

We are absolutely content with our child attending this nursery, the staff are all amazing and all helpful. It's so nice to see our child getting excited to attend to see their friends and mention staff by name. Our little one has been attending now for over a year and we have never had a problem and
are always kept up to date.

Amazing staff and care.
Really helped with my child's development and speech.
Great reports and regular updates regarding our child.
The only downside is the prior notice of meals being served. It would help with meal planning at home.

Babies and Tots rooms are great and have very welcoming staff. Updates on app are good and frequent. Lots of activities for kids.
A few of the staff really go the extra mile and take pride in their role. Improvement: parents should be allowed to visit during odd day-times in pre-booked slots, so they
can see how their child engages at nursery, like sleeping and food habits etc., as it helps to compare what kids do at home vs nursery.

Kids Planet Henley 1 is amazing! My son started when he was 9 months old, and he settled quickly due to the fantastic staff in the baby room, the team leader always made sure I knew he was happy and settled at the nursery. Due to personal circumstances, we had to move him from Kids Planet, and we were
really reluctant to do so because of the amazing care he received; he has grown into a confident, funny, caring boy and nursery has been a big part of that. I can't thank you enough.
Reply from Ann Clarke at Kids Planet Henley 1Thank you. It was a pleasure to play a part in his early development, and we miss seeing his cheeky smile.

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.
