Review from Louise H (Mother of Child) published on 1 February 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot rate Puddleducks enough. I have taken my child to the nursery since they were 1-year-old, and the staff at Puddleducks have always filled me with confidence. I admire how much my child learns whilst at nursery, and she enjoys going. The staff always seem so nurturing and encouraging, even encouraging
my child with mathematics, and I can really notice how much she has come on with it. They are very understanding and accommodating with my ever-changing schedule, and this is a real relief while trying to juggle working alongside childcare.
My child always tells me of the great activities that they have been doing and how much fun she has had with the staff and her friends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I absolutely love my child going to this nursery; all the staff are so welcoming and put me at ease from the induction to now.
The staff are so kind and caring and really do take excellent care of my child.
Nothing is ever too much to ask!
I would highly recommend this nursery to other parents.
My
child has dietary requirements, and they have catered to them so well.
My child always comes home with a smile on their face from the nursery.
I’ve watched them grow so much and can not wait to see how they further develop.

Lovely staff and a great safe space for the children. My son loves it. Areas are clean, well equipped and organised. Great learning environment, excellent for playing and interacting with other children. I feel that this nursery will help my child's learning and development as well as new skills in
making new friends as he was a Lockdown baby.

Review from A T (Father of Child) published on 20 January 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children have attended Puddleducks Day Nursery since they were around nine months old. It's been a pleasure to watch them grow and develop under the care of the staff there. There's a real commitment from the staff to the children's welfare and development.


We've had absolutely no issues

during our time at Puddleducks Day Nursery and communication is easy either over the phone, in person or via the Famly app. If you're considering sending your child to Puddleducks Day Nursery, I'd recommend you take the time to have a visit, see the rooms and meet some of the staff.


Highly recommended.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.956)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.956) out of 10 for Kids Planet Woolston 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.956 for Kids Planet Woolston is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.956
  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 Woolston is based on 15 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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8, which has been reached with 15 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.
