Review from Chloe B (Mother of Child) published on 17 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Luca started in June when he was only corrected 6 months as he was 12 weeks premature. I was so worried about being away from him and trusting other people with his needs but I couldn't have asked for a better team to look after my son. He has come on leaps and bounds since starting and loves nursery.
He loves all his teachers and I have so much trust in them which makes sending him so much easier. They are great at updating the app so I know everything that has happened that day and they make sure to give us a courtesy call if any little accidents or changes happen. The nursery is always clean and tidy and they always have age appropriate activities, Luca is always interacting with them which tells me they are always thinking of all age groups!!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Me and my husband couldn't be happier with the staff at Kids Planet Bricknell Avenue. Our daughter loves nursery and we feel that she is coming along and developing so well, with the help of the nursery staff. Our daughter has an additional need, in the form of hearing loss and hearing aids, which we
were extremely nervous about when she started attending over a year ago. However the staff have been amazing with this. They have been willing to learn how to use the aids, and are great at communicating with Emilia including using sign language.
I can tell by the updates on the app that our daughter takes part in a variety of activities which is reassuring that she is always learning new things, and I am really happy with the setting especially after the rebrand and revamp. I am also happy with the variety of foods that our daughter is offered.
Overall very happy and grateful to the staff at Kids Planet.

Review from S S (Mother of Child) published on 5 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for welcoming my boy with such open arms on his first taster session. I really didn't expect when I came to collect him, that I would see him eating a jacket potato with all the other children..it made me very emotional! It was wonderful to see.
Everyone is lovely
and kind and it was very reassuring leaving him in a setting where I know he will be well looked after. I came away feeling so confident that we've made the right choice for his nursery setting.
Thank you also to the one member of staff for the pictures/observation and to you all for taking the time to answer my questions.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started at the nursery when he was 10 months old. He has settled in very well from day 1! The staff are absolutely amazing! So lovely and welcoming. Honestly my son has not once gone into nursery crying. He toddles in with a smile. I feel so lucky to have got him into this nursery! Really happy
with the care and the support. I would always recommend this nursery!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has gone to this nursery now for a little while and she always has the best time. The app is updated regularly and I check it all the time from work which is very useful/reassuring. The staff are friendly and polite and my little girl knows them all on a first name basis and always speaks
highly of everyone. I travel for work sometimes and the nursery accommodated for that too. Honestly couldn't ask for better. My daughter has never had any issues and always seems excited to go!

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.852)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.852) out of 10 for Kids Planet Bricknell 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 5 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 5.000 for Kids Planet Bricknell is calculated as follows: ( (60 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 5
  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 3.852 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Bricknell is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 71 number of registered child places is 14.2. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.2 = 0.352
  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.
