Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery has been amazing since my boys started just as soon as they turned one. The baby room was a good vnrinoment for the boys with lots of activities and also feels very safe. I like how they do a lot of activities both indoors and outdoors. The staff are all amazing and seem to have a good relationship
with each other, and that makes the children have a good relationship with them too.

Pre-school group.
Our son has really enjoyed coming to nursery. I feel this is due to all the girls (staff in general) are always warm and welcoming. Our son can be a little shy at times but I feel that all the girls have helped him to feel safe and happy. Definitely would recommend!

My little boy adores attending Kids Planet Stretton. He has made some lovely connections with not only other children but the staff too. He is thriving in his development and speech and this is all down to the staff's commitment. As parents, we are so thankful to Kids Planet Stretton for their continued
dedication to love, care and nourish our little boy.

The staff that work here are what make this nursery great. The nursery itself could do with a spruce up and some money spent on resources, especially outside.
However, the fabulous staff do wonders with what they have. They genuinely care for the children and know them well. You know your children
are safe with them.

My experience with Kids Planet Stretton has been outstanding since my daughter started in Nov 2023. The staff in the toddler room have been incredible and my daughter adores them. She has the best time at nursery and has come on leaps and bounds since starting.
Communication has always been excellent
and the app is great for updates throughout the day. I couldn't recommend the Stretton branch enough,

We have been to three nurseries and around the UK & this is by far our favourite. The manager made me feel really welcome during our initial visit & has been great guidance, which is not something I'd experienced before.
Two particular staff members are always spoken about @ home by my son & it's great
to be able to work full time knowing my son is happy & comfortable.
Two other staff members are also great!

My little girl absolutely loves her time at nursery! The outdoor play is fantastic and comes home full of stories about the games played. The team do an amazing job of encouraging imaginative play, and it's lovely to hear at the end of the day.
We're so happy with the caring environment created and
the relationship our little one has built with the girls (team) over the years.

My daughter has attended since 9 months old and currently is in the toddler room.
She really enjoys attending nursery and always talks about the staff and friends she has made.
I feel she has come on so much and her development is ahead for her age due to nursery and the positive influence they
have on her.
She enjoys all the different activities she does every day, which is uploaded on the app for us to see what she is doing.
The meals offered are really good and nutritional and she is always trying new foods.
I feel the cost is amazing for what my daughter receives in care each day and how happy my daughter is attending at this nursery.
I feel she has bloomed since attending this nursery and the positive relationships she has with the staff is amazing.

We love Kids Planet Stretton; all the staff are so lovely and caring. Our daughter thrives there, and her language has developed amazingly. She is so confident and has learned so much in her time there. We love that they always try and get everyone playing outdoors where possible and always doing activities.
We moved here when my daughter was 20 months & she had to move from her old nursery & Kids Planet was so great with her & she settled so well and she is so happy there now.

The preschool team are fantastic at Kids Planet. Our daughter is always happy to go to nursery and has come on leaps and bounds since coming to the setting. Two members of staff in particular are always positive, caring, and informative and our daughter speaks fondly of them both. I would highly recommend

Our child really enjoys attending Kids Planet Stretton. She has brilliant relationships with staff who have continued to support her development journey. Staff always put in really thoughtful plans as she has transitioned from the baby to toddler room. When we arrive and leave the nursery we are always
receive a warm welcome with a smile. Our child loves all the creative activities staff prepare which includes staff promoting play and adventure outdoors. All staff communicate brilliantly and accommodate our needs. It's been lovely watching our child grown and develop through her time at Stretton Kids Planet.

I have been very impressed with Kids Planet Stretton ever since my daughter started there last year. She always comes home suitably tired and happy from all the various activities she does there. The activities are engaging, educational & relevant to her development. The staff are wonderful: they got
to know my daughter very quickly & tell me silly stories about her day when I pick her up. I was nervous having other people look after my child at first, but after seeing how she's settled in, I feel very comfortable that she is being looked after very well by the staff. She has an amazing bond with them.

This nursery feels like home. The manager has been there for a long time and runs the nursery is a well oiled machine. The team of nursery nurses are very caring and knowledgeable, and the children are loved, there are always lots of cuddles to be had. They have lots of great ideas on how to entertain
with a good emphasis on education. With the recent warmer weather there have been picnics in the lovely outdoor space and sometimes it's difficult to get my child to leave as she is having so much fun. My child has been attending the nursery since she was 1 and I have not had a single issue and she will be leaving for school soon so that is 3 years of excellence. She eats very well at this nursery with interesting sounding dishes like butternut squash curry. Apparently she has seconds so I know she wont go hungry, there is not a chance that she would eat a curry at home so the nursery are doing something very right! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to others

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.941)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.941) out of 10 for Kids Planet Stretton 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.941 for Kids Planet Stretton is calculated as follows: ( (352 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.941
  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 Stretton is based on 31 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 31 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.
