Both my children attend kids planet Bubbenhall and I am always impressed with the level of care and consistency they provide for my children. I have one child with allergies and they are amazing at catering to them. My other child has had trouble speaking and they've showed tremendous support for them.
The nursery curriculum is my favourite thing, I love how outdoors based they are.

Both my children have attended this nursery from 2019 to present. The setting is simply wonderful with lots of time spent outdoors. Even in the colder months, children wrap up and have been known to spend time toasting marshmallows on the fire. There is a wide array of age appropriate resources in the
various rooms and the staff always seem to be coming up with creative new ideas to keep the children entertained whilst also aiding their development.
My child not only feels at home but actually enjoys going to nursery each day. There is almost a family feel which creates a genuine parent partnership.

We really like Kids Planet Bubbenhall. The staff are incredibly friendly and informative and the nursery manager is fantastic and stays involved with both the parents and the children. I always feel I can ask questions about nursery activities and they keep me updated with my little ones days and progress.
They are also very on top of allergies which was important for us following our little ones diagnosis. I feel it's a supportive, welcoming, friendly nursery.

A very caring child centric nursery with passionate & enthusiastic staff. Our son absolutely loves all this nursery has to offer especially the outdoor space. He is given so many amazing outdoor learning experiences. He has really lovely relationships with the grown ups & the other children in his group.
It's been so lovely to watch his confidence & independence grow during his time here. I'd highly recommend this nursery.

We are very happy with Kids Planet Bubbenhall - our daughter is thriving there. The staff are nurturing, have created a real sense of community and she has a great relationship with all of them. I feel confident she is happy, safe and cared for, which was my key priority when choosing childcare, and
as a parent I feel listened to and well informed. We love the outside space and that emphasis is placed on plenty of outside time/learning. I feel the balance of learning, play and emotional development is great, our daughter has come on leaps and bounds during her time there. We have noticed the setting go from strength to strength, particularly in the last year.

It is a brilliant nursery with lots of outside space where both my children have gone to. They love all the staff and get excited to see them. They do lots of exciting activities including walking to Ryton pools, and fire pits and using tools. The nursery also recently put on a fantastic Christmas afternoon
for everyone. Would definitely recommend.

Our daughter has been attending the baby room at Bubbenhall since September and she absolutely loves it! When we arrive she's excited and has such a fun day while at nursery.
The nursery is very good at informing us about what she has been up to and what she's eaten etc.
Thank you for being far
from us!

Our son has been attending Kids Planet Bubbenhall since July 2023 and has been in the baby room and then is now in the toddler room. He loves going to nursery and has a really wonderful relationship with all the staff. The outside space is fantastic and it's great that they are able to use it so frequently.
The range of activities they do in the toddler room is brilliant and we love receiving the pictures and updates. We think he is developing really well thanks to the care, attention and support given by the experienced staff.

The team at Kids Planet Bubenhall have been exceptional in helping to settle both of my boys into the setting and encourage their development. The garden space is fantastic and I really appreciate their approach to outdoor play and learning. My eldest in particular was quite shy to start with but the
staff have been patient and helped to grow his confidence with others. Communication with staff has always been clear and efficient when issues have arisen. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this nursery to others.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My great-nephew has been in attendance for just over a year now. I can't fault the team at all. They have been 100% supportive and accommodating regarding some external circumstances that have occurred and he absolutely loves all the staff he interacts with. I love the outdoor play space and that regardless
of the weather they still get some outside time and love how much time is spent outdoors in the summer too. The outdoor space was also one of the reasons I chose this nursery and I have not been disappointed. I would 100% recommend this nursery. Even with some changes in staff in the last few months, there has been no change in standards of care, even when we had a change of keyworker, the transition has been very smooth.

My son absolutely loves this nursery. The staff and manager are brilliant and couldn't be more attentive and supportive. The outside space is a key factor to us choosing this as they spend so much time outdoors exploring and playing.
The food is well cooked and changes all the time for variety.
Highly
recommend an enjoyable place to be able to send my boy!

My child has been attending Kids Planet Bubbenhall since she was 7 months. All the staff are fantastic, they are so supportive and brilliant role models for my child. The outdoor space they have is amazing, their theory is everything you can do inside you can do outside. Everyday there are lots of activities
taking place, they always come home messy after having a brilliant time. I will be using Kids Planet Bubbenhall until they reach school age, if I have any more children I will certainly be sending them too.

Really lovely nursery in a lovely setting. Fabulous, large outdoor space surrounded by countryside and farm animals. I've had two children pass/ still within the nursery setting over the past five years and both of them have really enjoyed their time there. The staff are very attentive and really form
excellent bonds with the children. At pick up and drop off, staff really spend time to check on the children and how they've been overnight and if there's anything they need to remember for the coming day. The children spend a lot of time outdoors in all weathers so the staff really make sure they are all wrapped up warm.
Lovely, open-ended resources and toys for the children to play with and explore.

My daughter has been coming to this nursery since she was 9 months old and she's now nearly 4 years old and wow I wouldn't send her anywhere else. From the staff, the rooms, the garden, the food, everything is outstanding. The interaction with my daughter is everything and she has learnt so much. I
put my total trust into every single member of staff and can't thank them enough for their amazing hard work. Fabulous nursery, just the best!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.632)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.632) out of 10 for Kids Planet Bubbenhall 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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 4.882 for Kids Planet Bubbenhall is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.882
  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 4.75 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Bubbenhall is based on 12 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.75
  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.
