Review from S T (Mother of Child) published on 9 December 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very warm, welcoming and very helpful staff. My son took a few weeks to settle into the nursery as he stated at 10 months old - but he loves it now. His keyworker is great and takes time to listen and answer any questions we have. Overall my partner and I are very happy with the quality and service
so far.

We love the nursery. The standards, communication, care, passion and love for our little boy is second to none, and we are so grateful.
Our son enjoys nursery, he has had a few key workers within his time here, and they have all been fantastic.
Thank you to all the staff. We recommend to everyone!

I am happy with the nursey as my child seems to be developing quickly and is content in his environment. The staff are all really friendly, and I feel confident leaving my child in their care.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.604)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.604) out of 10 for Kids Planet Southport 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 25 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 4.860 for Kids Planet Southport is calculated as follows: ( (263 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 299 Ratings = 4.86
  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 4.744 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Southport is based on 25 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 168 number of registered child places is 33.6. 25 Positive Reviews ÷ 33.6 = 0.744
  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.
