Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started nursery last month and he has settled in good! The team in the baby room are very accommodating and very helpful. They welcomed me and my family and my son has formed great relationships with all the staff in the room and he is happy at nursery. I feel at ease going to work knowing he
is cared for at nursery. I get regular updates throughout the day and can see what he is working towards in the room.

My little one started the nursery in June 2024 at 6 months old. In this period, she has gone from being barely able to sit to crawl, standing, walking and running. She has become confident and interactive. She loves her carers at the nursery and enjoy being there.

My child is very happy at nursery and has made strong attachments to the adults in the baby room. Staff are very good at keeping us informed of progress and it is clear they have genuine care for him, which as a parent is a great feeling. We are very grateful to staff and would recommend Kids Planet
Hall Lane to others.

From day one, staff have been incredibly welcoming, supportive and attentive to my daughter's interests and needs. The nursery is clean, and the rooms are beautiful! I receive pictures and updates through the app and have great, consistent communication with keyworker. The managers are very helpful

This is a really good nursery, I have sent my child to other nurseries and this one tops them all. The staff are amazing, they are all so friendly and welcoming, and always give me a detailed handover telling me about his day. The nursery provide my child with really good food and experiences. The activities
they do look so fun and exciting. Their social media pages are so informative and look amazing. I'm really happy with what staff are teaching my child as he has come so far in his learning and development.

My son has been attending this nursery for over 2 years now and he loves it. The staff are fantastic, the facilities, including outdoor play area and sensory room, are brilliant. We get daily updates via the app on what he has eaten, nappy change, etc. and pictures. They offer a variety of different
kinds of food which is good for the children to try new things. There is a strict policy on tailgating and not allowing anyone else in to ensure the safety of children. Everyone is always happy, lots of parking space for pickups and drop-offs. Smells amazing when you walk in. I would highly recommend this nursery.

My son attended this nursery and as soon as we entered the nursery we were welcomed with warm smiles. The manager, Lauren was such a warm, kind and friendly person. On our look around she was so helpful and friendly, she introduced to all the lovely staff who made us feel welcomed. My son had settled
in the first few weeks, knowing it is really hard for him to get along with new people. The staff really tried their best to make him happy and comfortable. I couldn't have asked for better management and staffing team to look after my child.

My son has attended for almost 2 years now, he has come so far with his speech and development. The staff were great with his toilet training. They have been really helpful in dealing with tantrums and providing resources to help with this at home. He loves coming to nursery and has made so many friends.
I can't imagine having sent him anywhere.

There was an incident involving my child, I won't go into detail.
The nursery were quick to alert me to said incident. So for that, I'm grateful.
I'm happy with my son's progress since being here and he is and always been happy in his setting regardless of said incident.
Thankfully the incident
has been resolved and he continues to thrive due to certain staff.
Not slating anybody or the nursery in any way just my honest opinion of my overall experience.

I cannot speak highly enough of Kids Planet, it's incredible team. From day one, we were welcomed with warmth and professionalism, making our son's transition smooth and stress-free. The staff are not only friendly but also genuinely caring, ensuring each child feels valued and secure.
What sets Kids

Since joining, we've seen tremendous growth in our son's confidence has flourished, and he's thriving in the nurturing, engaging environment. The dedication of the staff is evident in everything they do, making Kids Planet a truly special place.

My child has being going to Kids Planet Hall Lane for a few months now, I am incredibly fortunate to have found such a caring and nurturing environment for my child. Even from my child's very first induction, the staff ensured that both myself and the child felt at ease and happy coming into the setting.
Management are great and extremely approachable, they are efficient with dealing with any of my queries. I can clearly see the positive impact that going to nursery has made on my child, it is lovely to see updates when he is there via the parents app and all the exciting activities he takes part in. I would highly recommend Kids Planet to family and friends. Thank you all for your hard work!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a mother, finding a nursery where my child feels safe, happy, and nurtured was my top priority, and I couldn't be more pleased with Kids Planet. From the very first day, the staff welcomed us with warmth and professionalism.
My child initially struggled to adjust, but the care and patience shown
by the teachers were incredible. They handled every situation with expertise and compassion, ensuring my little one felt comfortable. Now, my child looks forward to going to nursery every day and comes back excitedly sharing all the new things they've learned.
The activities are engaging, educational, and perfectly designed for their age group. It's been amazing to see my child develop new skills, make friends, and gain confidence. The facilities are clean, well-maintained, and safe, which gives me peace of mind.
While the fees are slightly on the higher side, I believe the quality of care and the joy it brings to my child make it completely worth it.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.711)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.711) out of 10 for Kids Planet Wakefield Road is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.711 for Kids Planet Wakefield Road is calculated as follows: ( (304 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 360 Ratings = 4.711
  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 Wakefield Road is based on 28 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 100 number of registered child places is 20, which has been reached with 28 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.
