Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Westgate Hill have made the transition of returning to work following 12 months of maternity leave and placing my daughter in their nursery seamless. From the day my daughter started with them they have always catered to mine and my daughter's needs, giving me updates on what is going well and easing
us both into the process. The girls at this nursery do an outstanding job and I would always recommend the nursery. The care and attention they provide to the children is outstanding and you are always greeted with a smile and a conversation. Outstanding nursery.

Fantastic staff - individualised learning programmes - our son loves attending and is developing his language skills at a rapid rate.

My son was slow in talking, he would say words but not string them together. The staff made the effort to spend one-to-one time with flash cards to help him. Now he will not shut up!! Ha ha. I love the fact no matter what weather they play out. Not being just in a room all afternoon. I would recommend,
and have done to a friend today. Excellent staff. Keep it up!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery has cared for my son since he was 9 months of age. Now at 3 and a half years old, it has been a joy watching him grow and develop, with the fantastic support and encouragement of the nursery staff in each room he has been in. The staff all seem to take an interest in my child's development
and are always updating me on his new achievements. The nursery environment is warm and nurturing of my child, he enjoys being there and will certainly miss it when he leaves for school next year.

Staff were excellent helping with my daughter when I went back to work. They made it a pleasant experience. They are also fantastic with her older brother who comes with me to pick her up. They make him feel involved. The facilities are very good too and offer more than other nurseries.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has come on leaps and bounds since starting nursery in particular with his speech. He has developed close bonds with the staff and often says how one is his best friend. He loves going to nursery and asks to go everyday even at the weekend. I highly recommend the nursery and would definitely
send my daughter.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little boy started 1 afternoon and 1 morning a week when he was 8 months old he is nearly 2 now and we have loved it for him since the first day. The staff are so nice they genuinely seem to care about our little boy his developments and achievements. Our little boy is due to move upstairs soon
and as parents we are feeling apprehensive about this as he is so settled where he is and they have known him so long but hopefully the transition will be good and out little boy will remain there until school age.

I have nothing but positive things to say about this nursery. I have sent both my daughters there and the quality of care they receive is outstanding. It has a very friendly atmosphere and the staff do anything they can to make sure your child is completely happy whilst there in their care. My daughter
loves going to nursery and doing all the different activities daily. I also find the variety of meals they have is great it gives my daughter all the different choices to try. Thank you everybody at Kinder Haven.

Two of my children have attended Kinder Haven, my son is still in the nursery and thoroughly enjoys it, the staff are great, very welcoming and always helpful.
I have no hesitation in recommending this nursery, my children are always smiling, never upset when I pick them up, I know they've had a good
day.
My youngest daughter will be starting Kinder Haven summer 2016 and I am sure she will settle in well! Definitely recommend this nursery to friends and family.

Great nursery. Staff are brilliant at what they do. They have bonded with my son and he loves them. My son has come along great since he has been at Kinder Haven. Great variety of food and plenty of playful things around. Also very good when poorly, great at communication with me about my sons day with
foods, playing, sleeping. Overall Kinder Haven is really good. Would definitely recommend.

Staff are very very friendly when you arrive, and always greet you and always have time to talk to you. They always give you a very good hand over of how your child has been while in their care, there is always plenty of choice of food.
Security is very good, they have fobs and cameras in place and
locks on their gates. Staff members are very very good and very welcoming and always interact with the children.

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.
