Review from E W (Mother of Child) published on 10 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The nursery provides lots of different activities to engage based on the children's current needs and interests. The staff in my child's room are proactive at informing me of how my child has got on that day and how they are supporting their behaviour and development, which helps us ensure that we maintain
consistency between their time in the nursery and at home. They plan opportunities for parents/families to come into the nursery for themed stay & plays and activities to extend learning at home which is lovely. The nursery's use of the app keeps us informed throughout the day of their meals/sleep/nappy changes, and the little glimpses of what our child has been doing that day with photos and the learning stories give us an insight into how they're doing. I've always found the management helpful if I've had a query of any kind.

My little girl has been going to Kids Planet Dukinfield since she was 9 months old.
She absolutely loves it and so do I.
The staff members are amazing, and keep you well informed about your child through their day and also on how they are progressing.
I would highly recommend Kids Planet.

My child is always comforted when arriving at nursery by one of the team. Her day is documented well on the app. She is encouraged to try new things and food.

Review from A M (Mother of Child) published on 19 December 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Overall, we feel this nursery is very good. Our little boy has had his ups and downs, but does enjoy going and most days says he's had a good day. They offer a range of activities and have a good outdoor space, which is brilliant as our little boy loves to be outside. He always tries the food and says
the majority is nice and will often ask for seconds! We do feel that some staff could be a bit more welcoming when dropping off our little boy, but most of them are lovely, they are always willing to listen to any concerns and seem to try their best to resolve these.

Kids do loads of different activities through the data.
Garden in each group. The staff are amazing and very helpful.
Meals are freshly made with loads of healthy snacks throughout the day.
Definitely worth the money and I highly recommend to all parents who are looking for childcare. This is
my second child in this nursery. It's amazing.

Kids Planet Dukinfield really care about the children and their families.
The staff are always enthusiastic when greeting the children. All staff know my child's name, even if they don't work in her room.
This is our third child who has come through Kids Planet and all children have loved it and
thrived.

I have had two children come to Kids Planet, one of which still attends (baby room) and we have nothing but praise for all the staff. My oldest daughter absolutely loved attending and has made some long-lasting friends along the way. Her progress has been incredible and she is more than ready to start
school in September. My youngest daughter enjoys coming and I can already see such a difference in her progress and milestones. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone and already have done to new parent friends.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.810)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.810) out of 10 for Kids Planet Dukinfield is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.810 for Kids Planet Dukinfield is calculated as follows: ( (287 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 348 Ratings = 4.81
  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 Dukinfield is based on 29 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, which has been reached with 29 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.
