Review from K W (Mother of Child) published on 28 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fantastic nursery. Every member of staff goes above and beyond to make the children feel safe and happy. My daughter found it difficult to start nursery at the age of 2 and a half but with time and plenty of care from all staff, she now loves going to nursery. As a fussy eater, her food preferences
are very limited, however, her teachers know her likes and dislikes and ensure that she always has a meal that she likes. My son will be starting there in a few months, wouldn't send him anywhere else.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team at Fisherfield Middleton are absolutely fantastic. I have two boys and both have been well looked after in their care. It has a real family feel and I've always felt so comfortable leaving my children in their capable hands. Both of my children started nursery at 9 months old, which is quite
young, and as a mother going back to work this can be a really daunting prospect. The team were always great in these circumstances, keeping me in the loop all the time. I've recommended this nursery to multiple friends and family and will continue to do so. My youngest is still in attendance and runs into nursery everyday with a big smile on his face which says it all!
Reply from Team Fisherfield, Middleton at Kids Planet School HouseThank you so much for your lovely feedback. It really means a lot to hear that both of your boys have felt so at home with us at The School House. We understand how big a step it is leaving little ones, especially at such a young age, and we're so pleased we've been able to make that transition a reassuring and positive one for your family. It's always our aim to create a nurturing, home-from-home environment, so your kind words about the "family feel" truly resonate with us. And we love that your youngest still runs in smiling, what a perfect start to the day!

A home from home. I was initially reluctant to leave my child in a nursery but after visiting several, Fisherfield, Middleton stood out as the place I would be happy leaving my child. Staff are genuine and caring, showing awareness of every child's needs and development. My child has strong bonds with
several staff, who clearly create a safe, loving environment for him to grow and learn away from home. I struggle to leave my son in childcare but know he is happy here. They are all outstanding and I could not ask for more from them. My son loves it here and that makes for happy parents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our first and only daughter started at this nursery over 2 years ago. It's such a scary time for any parent putting your child in a nursery for the first time. We had been to several in the area, but none like this. It ticks all the boxes for us. Firstly it's always immaculate, along with this the rooms
are large and it isn't overpopulated. It might sound daft but the lighting is great as well. My daughter absolutely loves going and loves the nursery workers. The new play area at the back is great and the food they serve is homemade and super healthy. I've referred several family members who all go and are also over the moon.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.325)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.325) out of 10 for Kids Planet School House 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 3 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 4.917 for Kids Planet School House is calculated as follows: ( (33 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.917
  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 3.408 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet School House is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 95 number of registered child places is 19. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 19 = 0.158
  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.
