As a Dad of two kids under 4 at this nursery I can only say how brilliant it is for both kids. All staff are brilliant and plenty of activities for the kids on a daily basis. Would highly recommend it to any parents considering this nursery.

The nursery manager has been great and very helpful and supportive, however, I had an untold amount of trouble with invoicing getting my daughter's name wrong despite corrections and continuously sending me incorrect invoices with the wrong days and hours on. Some staff members were inattentive to my
daughter when she was transitioning from another nursery to Kids Planet and I felt some staff members could have been a lot more compassionate and caring to help her settle in. Often she was left at the door and told to put her stuff away after being there for a day and feeling lost.

My twins attend the baby room here at Kids Planet and I have to say the care and love they have received from day one has been incredible, they have grown such a strong connection to their partnered person. They enjoy their days at nursery, are well fed and always come back happy and content. They do
live updates throughout the day to keep you interacted in their day. Amazing nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has learnt so much in such a short time at Kids Planet. She loves going to the nursery and on weekends she asks if she can go. The nursery staff are all very helpful and understand the needs of my daughter very well. The nursery building itself is large and enables the children to play and
learn.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has attended Kids Planet for the last few years. During his time there, we have watched his confidence grow and enjoyed seeing all the daily activities he takes part in during his day. The team at the Kidderminster branch have dedicated alot of their time to educating our son on things like
numbers, shapes, and colours, even down to the grip he uses when holding a pen. The food menu is brilliant, in fact, I even considered asking if he could bring some home for me, as the food they provide sounds lovely! Our son is quite fussy when it comes to eating, so him being able to try different foods that he wouldn't normally have at home, has really helped improve his food variety. I can't thank the team at Kids Planet enough for their hard work, care, and dedication to help start our son on his path, through the next 14 years of his journey in education. We are forever grateful. A special thanks to the manager! You've been amazing!

What a fantastic nursery. The staff are kind, caring and supportive. They really care and adore the children and are great at communicating with us. I cannot fault this nursery! We love seeing our baby girl grow in confidence and enjoy her time here. The added extras are perfect - and even a little
parent's evening! Thank you, baby room!

I can pick a fault with Kids Planet Kidderminster. The staff are always welcoming and genuinely care for the well-being of the children in their care. They are always friendly and helpful.
My son is very content at nursery and his learning and development has progressed so much since attending this
nursery.

Since starting at Kids Planet Kidderminster, my daughter has learnt so much and gained so much confidence. The staff who care for her are second to none and I am massively grateful for the support they have given us through our daughter's recent cows milk allergy. So pleased she now attends nursery
here. Always smiling after a brilliant day of learning and fun. I recommend everyone to Kids Planet, Kidderminster.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.856)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.856) out of 10 for Kids Planet Kidderminster 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.856 for Kids Planet Kidderminster is calculated as follows: ( (274 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 312 Ratings = 4.856
  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 Kidderminster is based on 25 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 25 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.
