Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a brilliant nursery. My daughter has been attending since being 1 year old. She’s very happy and has made friends here. I have moved house but have still kept my daughter on here as she’s very happy and I trust them.

My daughter has been attending nursery since she was 5 months old. Staff made me feel very at ease leaving her at such a young age. I am always fully informed and kept up to date. I have highly recommended this nursery to my sister.

My daughter currently attends the nursery and has done since she was 8 months old. She loves going and has come on in leaps and bounds from her learning to walk, talking and much more. The staff are fantastic and honestly can't do enough for you. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All the staff at this nursery are amazing, they have really helped my children grow and learn, nothing is too much trouble. My children have all enjoyed their days at this nursery and all the outings they have been on. As a parent, if I have ever had any questions they are answered straight away and
any help I have ever needed has always been given as soon as they can. I would recommend this nursery to everyone that has young children.

My son attends the nursery and thoroughly enjoys it. All the staff are friendly and approachable and go above and beyond to help me and have done so on many different occasions. My two older children also attend the after school club and love going. I am so happy with my son's progress here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My children love coming to nursery, they have become confident and sociable and have made some lovely friends. The staff here make you feel very welcome and are always very accomodating. As a shift worker this nursery have strived to accomodate my childcare needs. The staff are very good at keeping
parents informed of how children have been, what they have been doing/eating, and any upcoming events. They also prepare children for school and spend time in the school environment. I do recommend this nursery

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.915)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.915) out of 10 for Kids Planet Anchorsholme 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.949 for Kids Planet Anchorsholme is calculated as follows: ( (263 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 276 Ratings = 4.949
  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 4.966 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Anchorsholme is based on 23 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 119 number of registered child places is 23.8. 23 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.8 = 0.966
  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.
