Review from C G (Mother of Child) published on 24 November 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Having to choose a nursery in the middle of a pandemic was extremely stressful for me as a first-time mum, however, Poppy and Jacks Heaton Mersey made it all a very easy and reassuring process. The staff are all very welcoming and my son enjoys his time at nursery. Doing lots of different activities
within the theme of the week, I can help extend his learning at home by completing some of the ‘homework’ suggestions which are often fun and something we can do in our normal day-to-day activity. My second child is about to start in December and I have no doubt she will enjoy it as much as her big brother.

This is our 3rd nursery. From the outside it might not look much, but my goodness, it has exceeded our expectations. It is honestly great. We have a baby and a pre-schooler there and we really rate the place. Its calming and thoughtful spaces are great to encourage a homely feel while encouraging learning
through play, and the updated outdoor space is lovely. Also, the staff are honestly so much nicer than those we've encountered elsewhere. Go visit.

All of the staff across the nursery, especially in toddlers and pre-school provide my children with a warm and welcoming environment and are always ready to offer additional support and encouragement if we ever have reluctant drop off’s etc. The nursery is such a warm and happy place. My children are
both very happy there.

My child’s development has really come on whilst attending this nursery and she loves spending time with their friends. The staff are very friendly. A good range of meals are offered which always seem to go down well. Never had any issues whilst she has been going there. I would recommend this nursery
to a friend looking for child care.

Really happy we chose Poppy & Jacks, our little one is very happy here. Feel like his development is supported with great facilities and trustworthy caring staff. I viewed a lot of nurseries in the area this is by far the best value for money. He loves the outdoor area and the regular walks.

My son absolutely loves being at Snugglebums. He has settled in so well to the nursery thanks to the help and support from the staff in his room. He is happy to go into the nursery and I know he has so much fun when he is there. The manager also helped so much to ease my nervousness about leaving him.
I could not be happier with the nursery and I am glad that I chose it for my son.

During this difficult time, the nursery has been a great form of support - always checking we are okay and keeping us up to date with all the local government data.
My daughter has never had a bad day at nursery, has learnt so much and is very happy there.
Even the staff that don’t work in my daughter's
room know my daughter and she knows them.

My granddaughter loves going to Snugglebums Day Nursery and has built a fabulous bond with the staff members. The staff members are very approachable and there are always fantastic activities set out when dropping her off.

My daughter has been going to this setting for just over a year and absolutely loves it. She loves the outdoor space and the local trips the staff always take the children on. Great team of staff who are always so welcoming.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery is amazing! I initially had my daughter in a different nursery, not so far away, but after a number of issues I moved her to Snugglebums and it has been the best decision we ever made. The management are very excellent and you can really tell that they value their staff. The staff all seem
really passionate about the children and their jobs and my daughter loves it! The facilities are amazing, the outdoor space is great! The activities they do each day with the children are fun and really varied. The food menu is really healthy and nice. My daughter absolutely loves it here!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.612)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.612) out of 10 for Kids Planet Heaton Mersey 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 13 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 4.942 for Kids Planet Heaton Mersey is calculated as follows: ( (147 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.942
  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 4.67 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Heaton Mersey is based on 13 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 97 number of registered child places is 19.4. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.4 = 0.67
  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.
