Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The girls at the nursery are fantastic. They are very professional and loving towards my children. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting. They treat all the kids like family. My daughter has a dairy allergy and they are amazing with the variety of food. I highly recommend this nursery
for all the love and care they give our children.

Since my son has been going to this nursery I can see big changes on his behaviour. He is a very active child, doing lots of activities and is very creative all of this because of the staff at the nursery. Thank you for your patience, involvement and professionalism.
Definitely recommend you and this
nursery will be my first option for the next child.

After what has been a very scary year as a new mum, the staff at Kinder Haven have been great at putting my anxious mind at ease. My son is thriving at nursery and the staff go above and beyond to ensure his needs are met. They provide me with many daily updates, have built such loving and strong bonds
with my son and I can relax knowing that he is having fun-filled days in such a caring, engaging environment.

A fantastic nursery that meets the needs of our child perfectly. Our little girl is happy and excited to go to nursery and I am given regular updates on her activities and progress. My child's key worker is approachable and friendly and always has time to talk to us before and after nursery which puts
us at ease.

Review from Elaine S (Mother of Child) published on 24 May 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started attending this nursery in the last few weeks and we have seen wonderful development in her character. As first-time parents, we were initially nervous when sending her to nursery considering she had been with us 24/7 since she was born. But Kinder Haven have made the transition so
easy.
The place is clean, full of activities and learning opportunities. I love that they update the progress of your child throughout the day via an app, it gives me the peace of mind that she is doing well, as well as makes me feel like I am not missing out with the updates I get.
The staff are all kind and patient when answering any questions that we ask. They genuinely care for our child and are interested in ensuring she develops well.
My daughter absolutely loves going to the nursery and you can see her flourishing there. I would highly recommend Kinder Haven.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery is everything we hoped it would be when our little boy first started attending the angels room over a year ago at the age of 9 months (pre-lockdown). I would never think that a breast-fed, contact napping baby would settle at nursery so well. We were naturally worried, but the managers
and practitioners at angels were so supportive and professional, the settlement went smoothly and so did every nap transition, teething, developmental leap, etc. Since then he has flourished there. He now goes to nursery 5 days a week and enjoys it a lot. The manager and the staff are amazing, they really know every child and genuinely care about their well-being and development. The managers know every parent, day-to-day communication is great, we receive regular updates and photos via an app. I can't recommend this nursery enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery has been looking after my children for six years and I have never been disappointed with the care and support the staff give. Throughout this period I’ve seen staffing changes but the high standards they have remain consistent. When I’ve needed to request anything or discuss anything I’ve
always been given the time. The management team are approachable, accommodating and helpful. I have always been confident leaving my children in their care and each child love their experience they have being there. My child who is currently at the nursery can’t wait for his next visit, each time he leaves. The staff keep him entertained, engaged in activities and he continuously is learning with them. I couldn’t recommend Kinder Haven Ltd @ Westgate Hill enough they are brilliant!

My son has recently started cherubs and I must say I’m very impressed with Kinder Haven - the rooms are clean, bright and inviting to children and the staff are excellent. Particularly one member of staff who has been brilliant at helping my son settle in. The induction was also very smooth and the
nursery manager is very warm and personable. Overall a fantastic daycare so far! Would definitely recommend.

Amazing nursery would highly recommend!
My daughter has been attending kinder haven since she was 8 months old she’s now 3 and she has learned so much since starting! Staff are so helpful with milestones and helping children achieve them! The staff are lovely to talk to and have a great bond with my
daughter. They provide good healthy meals every day all day and help encourage to eat all meals. They provide daily exercise indoor and out! Easy to contact and they provide an app on your phone where the nursery updates you on meals each day including what your child has eaten and how much! They also provide photos of your child for you to view and are always asking questions on how to help your child learn and develop every day! Honestly, an amazing nursery. Would definitely recommend to anyone and have no bad words to say about the nursery or staff. My daughter comes home every day with a big smile and is excited to return every day.

I absolutely can’t recommend this nursery enough, the manager and her staff are amazing and genuinely love and care for our little girl. She has flourished in their care and can’t wait to go to nursery on a morning to see her friends. The connection between us and staff is so much more than just staff
at nursery. Any issues and the manager is straight on it, even when you turn up on the wrong day like I did once, oops baby brain! They have also handled Covid-19 exceptionally in these trying times. Thank you to all the staff.

My little boy started at the end of February 2021 just before his third birthday. He has never been in any child care setting before as he has always been looked after by family members. Its taking him some time getting used to leaving us but the staff have and are doing everything possible to settle
him. He tells me how they cuddle him when he asks where we are, I know he is in a safe, welcoming environment. They have fun activities planned and are very engaging, I am glad I chose this nursery for my son.

My first child has now left and moved to school and my second started back in June.
My views are still the same and I can not recommend this nursery enough, my daughter started to attend in the middle of the covid 19 pandemic and her experience of starting is different to my son's, however, it has
still been of the highest standard and a positive experience. Due to restrictions I have not been able to go into the building for any drop-off or picks up but my daughter has coped amazingly, she’s not been upset and has settled in fabulously with great support from all the staff. Over the past 5 years, I have recommended this nursery to so many people and they have all sent their children as well.
If you choose this nursery you will not be disappointed.

We have used Kinder Haven Ltd @ Westgate Hill for the last 7 years for both our children. I can not recommend the nursery enough.
Staff are incredibly professional and dedicated at all times. During our time at nursery, we have never had a complaint. Both children have been well cared for, secure
and nurtured. It has definitely given them a great start in life and prepared them for school.
Staff expect good behaviour from children and standards are high. I have absolute confidence in the staff to care for my children. The meals are good and the staff fully committed, flexible, approachable. My children have been very happy at this nursery and as my youngest prepares to leave for school in the next month we will miss them all. Thank you for everything Kinder Haven.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.968)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.968) out of 10 for Kids Planet Tong 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.968 for Kids Planet Tong is calculated as follows: ( (151 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.968
  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 Tong is based on 13 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 13 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.
