Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My children have attended this nursery since they were ten months of age. I can offer nothing but the highest praise and recommendations for the management, room leaders, chef, cleaners etc. I have extremely high standards for what I expect for my children in order for me to feel assured in leaving
them in the care of others; this literally feels like leaving them with family members. During Covid they have been unbelievably supportive, adaptive, and empathetic. You just cannot put a price on this level of professionalism and genuine care.

Review from Paul N (Father of Child) published on 27 October 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter is always so happy to come to nursery. She loves to tell us all the exciting things she got up to in the day and the new friends she has made.
She has come along so much since we have put her in for the extra half-day and I owe this to the staff. She loves you all so much and this is all
I ask.
She is more confident, better mannered and is so outgoing and I owe the nursery for a lot of it.
The only thing I miss is the lack of photos and updates. We used to get daily photos and reports but don't seem to get them anymore. However, I know at the moment that is probably harder than I am giving credit.
Thank you all so much.

My child has attended Kids Planet Crosby since she was 1, she is now 4. My experience of this nursery is outstanding! I have never once had a problem or had to discuss a matter. The care and quality is amazing and my child is thriving. She has now also attended school nursery and they can’t believe
how mature and settled she is thanks to Kids Planet.

A fantastic childcare provider. My son has been at Kids Planet Crosby since he was 10-months-old, rising through the ranks of Baby Room, Tots and more recently, Toddlers. I honestly cannot fault the team there, my son has received the most amazing care from his key persons and all the staff and management
at the nursery who can't do enough for him (and us); his strengths have been celebrated and nurtured and his development areas have been encouraged consistently and effectively. He's thrived in their care. So much so that my daughter will be joining in September of this year. They're both in very good hands.

My son started Kids Planet Day Nurseries - Crosby in February 2020 and from the tour of the nursery to his settling in days to his start date the staff have been faultless. It feels like a home from home and I am more than happy with my decision to choose this nursery. The baby room staff, in particular,
are exceptional ladies and my son is set to enjoy many happy, fun-filled days at nursery. Keep us the good work Kids Planet Day Nurseries - Crosby.

The staff are very welcoming. Our son adores his key worker and loves going to nursery. I really enjoy the updates and pictures I receive through the parent app.

The staff are loving and give both of my children and all their caregivers time. We're always greeted with a smile. They show interest in the children's learning and development. I feel comfortable asking for further information.
Most importantly, they provide cuddles if they're sad which means a lot
when I have to be in work.

I love this nursery. Everything I've seen has been professional and caring. They provide learning and lots of outdoor play. My child is in the preschool and I can honestly say all the staff are fabulous.
Daily updates with photos which I love as it reassures me and if I feel anxious I can pop on their
CCTV to check.
Great place.

Review from Sarah (Mother of Child) published on 26 September 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My eldest child had a happy 2.5 years here, however, the last 3 months of preschool he was unhappy. There was no continuity, staff too busy to do any activities with the children, they have fantastic facilities but the children don't get to use them. The garden is often empty and the rooms are so busy
(particularly preschool) that activities are not possible. My youngest started 4 months ago and we have changed nurseries, staff were not particularly engaged and she was unhappy most of the time, she was often having cuddles but never seemed to be encouraged to take part in anything. She has settled into her new nursery in 2 weeks and she is very happy which has reinforced our belief that this nursery, whilst good, needs to focus more on the individual children. The prices have increased every year but this has not been reflected in the care that my children received. Each member of staff is caring, I just think they are under too much pressure and too many children per room.

This nursery is fantastic and meets my little boys needs very well. He is now two and has attended for a year now since he was one and I have always felt very comfortable leaving him. Thanks.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I couldn't recommend this nursery enough. All the girls that have looked after our son have been great. Despite having tears when we drop him off, he always comes home really happy and we can't get him to stop talking, which is reassuring for any parent who is about to leave their child with people
they don't really know. I also like the fact that they promote healthy eating, I go to work knowing he is going to get nutritious meals. My son also loves the garden and all the toys there and he is outside quite a bit which I also really like. If you are apprehensive about leaving your child be reassured they will be looked after.

The House and all the staff throughout the different rooms, provide a caring, positive and stimulating environment for our daughter.
Her eldest sister came to this nursery and their younger brother is due soon too.
Our daughter shows through her behaviour and communication that she is settled here.
She recently gave her key worker the sincere, loving hug when she saw her first thing in the morning. We are so confident about the nursery and highly recommend it to any parent considering a setting with the best possible standard.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.188)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.188) out of 10 for Kids Planet Crosby 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 11 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 4.894 for Kids Planet Crosby is calculated as follows: ( (118 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.894
  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 4.294 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Crosby is based on 11 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 187 number of registered child places is 37.4. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 37.4 = 0.294
  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.
