Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Kids Planet Heswall is a fantastic environment for my daughter to learn and grow. I am so pleased with her progress and how she is developing there. For me, the most important thing is the staff and I am so impressed with the Preschool team, extremely experienced, caring and nurturing so I know my daughter
is receiving the best care possible.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely lovely team of practitioners who give the nursery a real family feel.
All three of my children have attended here and have all had a lovely relationship with their key people. I love how happy my daughter is going in every day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Kids Planet Heswall, previously Marigolds, has provided our little boy with the perfect start. Now 16 months of age, he joined at 11 months and he has changed so much under their care and guidance. Although in the ‘baby room’ with other children his age, he seems to know all the staff in the nursery
and they all know him. They provide reports throughout each day about eating, nappies and sleep, and also upload moments such as reading books, chilling in the chill-out tent (!) and generally emptying jigsaws out. They are patient, well-informed, caring, safe, inclusive and they encourage him to move forward at his own rate. Meals vary a lot which takes the pressure off at home! They have funny stories at the end of every day and he loves it there. Would highly recommend it.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.964)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.964) out of 10 for Kids Planet Heswall is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.964 for Kids Planet Heswall is calculated as follows: ( (265 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 4.964
  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 Heswall is based on 23 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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8, which has been reached with 23 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.
