My daughter has settled really well into nursery. I believe this is due to the care given to her from staff. I have never had any issue with anything.

I was really apprehensive about my son starting nursery, but all the staff were really friendly and reassuring that everything would be fine. In the two months he has been at Kinder Haven, his development has come on extremely quickly.
On a daily basis, all the staff are friendly, helpful and informative.

I love this nursery and staff. I feel comfortable leaving my child with them.
I moved away quite far and was going to change her nursery but decided against it. My child is so settled and happy here.

My daughter really enjoys nursery and has progressed so much in all areas since being in the nursery. Staff are really friendly and approachable and communicate really well regarding praise, progress and also things that need dealing with.
Really stimulating for my child and at home, she's sharing
what she is learning.
Really happy with my daughter in this placement.

Very nice and caring staff. Understanding the specific needs of each child and taking care of them. There are two care givers that look after my daughter are doing a great job.

My child is very happy and settled in his nursery class. He learns on a daily basis. He is always clean when I come to pick him up and does lots of activities.

Review from Ellis W (Mother of Child) published on 11 February 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a fantastic nursery. All the girls that work there (including the dinner lady) are all lovely and very welcoming. I dreaded sending my little boy to nursery as he was so clingy, but they made it so easy, he bonded with the girls straight away. He now asks to go to nursery because he loves his
"teachers" and all the activities they do. The staff have even helped him with his fussy eating, he now more or less eats anything put in front of him, where as before he refused 90% of foods. I will be sending my little girl here soon with confidence that she will flourish just like her brother.! I honestly couldn't recommend the nursery and staff enough ??

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It's so hard being a working parent, trying to maintain a clean, tidy home whilst feeling guilty for returning to work and leaving your kids in the care of others. However this is not so much an issue for me, my little boy is excited on the days he attends nursery, he rushes out of bed on a morning
and can't wait to get there. I go to work knowing full well he's being looked after, he's being stretched and challenged and that he is being encouraged to do well. His nursery nurse makes me feel like he is the only child she is caring for when I pick him up - she tells me about his ups, his downs and his funny moments. First class service from a first class nursery with premier rated staff x

This nursery is absolutely brilliant my son's been going for 9 months now and he loves it he's made some great friends and loves waking up in a morning knowing he's going to play all day, the staff are great too my son's in love with the ladies haha. He's learnt so much and come on so far in the past
few month. He is fully toilet trained now thanks to the brilliant staff in cherubs. I know I can go to work for a 9 hour shift and not have to worry about who's taking care of him I know he's totally safe and having a great time very recommenced it's brilliant.

The standards of this nursery are a cut above the rest in all aspects, all the staff are also amazing and ready to help with anything at the drop of a hat, I only wish I could have sent my older children to this nursery, highly recommend.

Clean environment. Activities all day long. Good diet but feel Bright Stars and Cherubs should have more than just toast for breakfast. Extremely accommodating in an emergency. Always informed of both good and not so good behaviour. I currently have 2 granddaughters here and previously my grandson
attended.

My son went here up until he started reception at school, he attended from 7 months old and loved it!
My daughter now attends and she settled right in after the first few days, the staff are lovely and keep you informed about everything, they have a lot of time for the children in their care as well
as the parents. As a working mum I find it extremely satisfying I can leave my daughter there while at work without worrying at all about her.

My daughter attended this nursery from 9 months to starting school, so I knew it would be perfect for my son. He goes 4 days a week and loves it. He settled in fine and sometimes doesn't want to leave! The staff are all so friendly, easy to talk to and helpful. It is extremely clean, safe and there
is a great atmosphere. At the end of the day the staff will hand you a sheet with details of what my son has been doing, eating, sleeping, learning, playing and nappies done.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After returning to work after maternity leave I was very nervous about leaving my then 6 month old little girl. The girls have made me feel so much calmer about it and are always there to help me out if I have any concerns about my daughter. My little girl is now 8 months old and seems to absolutely
love going to nursery which puts me at ease.

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.
