Kids Planet Daisies Lowdham offers flexible childcare for families living in the local community.

The nursery is a light and bright space designed to stimulate and engage children. There is also a great outdoors space for when the fun can no longer be contained to the indoors!

With a focus on promoting positive development, the team also want children to feel happy and safe during their time at the nursery. Each day is planned to offer child and adult led experiences, and there is always somewhere to go for some quiet time when it is needed. The team strive to build collaborative relationships with families, helping them to deliver the best care for each child whilst also ensuring parents never feel that they are missing out on those big moments during the early years.

Review from Clare C (Mother of Child) published on 26 March 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little girl has been at Kids Planet Lowdham from baby room and toddler room and is only leaving due to re-locating. We have been so happy with her time here and are sad to leave as she’s loved it. The staff have supported her and us through covid and family difficulties. We’ve always known she is
safe and having a great time whilst at nursery. The outdoor space is incredible and one of the best nurseries we’ve seen. And recently the new toys and resources have proven very popular, she is always excited to show us what she’s been playing with and doing that day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since Kids Planet has taken over the resources are much better. The children have a lot more variety of toys, food and activities. The staff seem/appear much happier and information at the end of the day is much better. The children are excited about attending and getting more involved.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff at the nursery look after our child with the utmost care. They were careful to understand our needs and wants and communicate with us to ensure our child is as happy as can be. Their ethos of 'child first' perfectly fits how we parent and as a result the quality and consistency of care given
has helped our child develop in leaps and bounds. We couldn't be happier with the care given and highly recommend this nursery, and especially, the baby room to anyone. Thank you all, you're brilliant.

We love Daisies Day Nursery, Lowdham! My little boy goes here and he is really excited when he arrives in the mornings! He is always learning new things and being supported in his development by the staff! They make learning fun and he really has thrived since starting! I couldn’t recommend this nursery
enough, the staff are like friends and the communication is brilliant, always keeping us up to date on what he is up to and what key milestones he’s achieving. Brilliant Nursery!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.866)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.866) out of 10 for Kids Planet Lowdham 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.866 for Kids Planet Lowdham is calculated as follows: ( (208 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 238 Ratings = 4.866
  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 Lowdham is based on 20 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, which has been reached with 20 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.
