Review from Cat B (Mother of Child) published on 30 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son is about to leave Kids Planet (formerly The Green Nursery) to head to school. He has attended since he was around 7 months old, and as a family we're just so grateful to have had the support of this nursery. It's been a fantastic learning environment where the kids needs are put first. The staff
are just brilliant. Nothing is too much trouble, because it's all about the safety and happiness of your child. Hands down, I would recommend Kids Planet Halesowen. I will really miss them all when we leave in a couple of weeks.

We have a son who attended The Green Nursery (Now Kids Planet) and has just left to start primary school. As a family, we couldn’t ask for a better place to help raise our little one. Staff are so friendly, knowledgeable and loving towards our son. They cater for all needs, especially developmental
(such as delayed speech) and work with you to bring the best out in your child. Can’t recommend this nursery enough. Amazing through and through!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I currently have one daughter at this nursery and one daughter who has recently left due to starting school. It's a wonderful nursery, staff are always friendly and the manager is friendly and approachable too. I love that they have free play along with structured activities and I love to see my children's
updates on tapestry. This nursery is not just a safe place to send the kids to play, it's so much more than that. Thank you The Green Nursery, my children love/loved it there.

Review from Stacey J-R (Mother of Child) published on 5 September 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attended this day nursery from January 2013 until August 2016. They were extremely helpful with her communication needs, friendly and their staff were one in a million. I felt as though I could ask them anything and they took the time to explain everything and they were very good with my
shy little girl. She is like a different child since attending The Green, as she has come on in leaps and bounds. Very happy with this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I've worked with children for over twenty years and I've used childcare in some shape for sixteen of those years.


I cannot fault The Green Nursery, their staff are superb and the manager listens to your queries and they are dealt with immediately.


My children love the nursery and often don't

want to come home. They are excited to enter and have no worries in pushing me out the door. When they have become upset, the staff are excellent at reassuring them and myself.


My children are well prepared for school and their links with locals schools is great. Even when they have to tell me that one of my kids as been a little unfriendly that day, they do it very professionally, their dedication to helping my child with potty training is amazing.


They keep me up-to-date with development and the occasional funny story, I'm able to see photos on the Tapestry site they use, which is great. I don't feel like i'm missing out.


To be honest I wouldn't choose anywhere else for my babies to go.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.913)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.913) out of 10 for Kids Planet Halesowen 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.913 for Kids Planet Halesowen is calculated as follows: ( (304 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 333 Ratings = 4.913
  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 Halesowen is based on 28 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, which has been reached with 28 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.
