Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a very anxious mother, my boy starting nursery was such an overwhelming experience for me and him. But the team at butterfly lodge went above and beyond to make the process so much easier than I could have ever imagined. And from that very first day to now they have never let me down with my boy.
The love the effort the commitment they give him and catering to his needs and helping him come on leaps and bounds by teaching him so kindly and so loving!
He goes into nursery so happy and so ready for his day there. He tells me in his own little way that he's had fun. :)
I really cannot thank you all enough for being so amazing!! Xxx

When picking a nursery for our daughter it was so important we got a positive vibe from the staff members and the nursery environment straight away. We got this as soon as we walked through the door. The care and compassion we receive for our daughter is incredible. Our daughter has been attending butterfly
lodge since May 2024 and she absolutely loves it the relationship she has with the staff is amazing. We get updated through he day about how she is doing and at pick which is always thorough.
We appreciate everything they do as our daughter absolutely loves nursery and she is thriving in her development.

I've sent both of my boys to Butterfly Lodge my eldest left in 2022 and my youngest currently attends the rising 3's room. All of the staff are amazing with both of my children, we all come in to drop off my youngest and my eldest is greeted with the same happiness as always. The chef is superb! We
walk the past the kitchen every morning to the rising 3's room and she is always happy and smiling greeting anyone she sees! The staff I see the most are the rising 3 practitioners who are all great, my son sometimes has issues being dropped off he gets very upset and they're very patient and give him the best reassurance to settle him down. Much appreciation to everyone at Butterfly Lodge!

The best nursery I could have picked for my little girl. The teachers are really caring, professional and friendly. My little girl loves all the activities they prepare and is super excited to go there. They never fail to let you know about everything your child did all they and what they have eaten
it always puts my mind at ease. Honestly couldn't be more grateful for the care they provide for my little girl!

My son has been at this nursey almost a year now and has grown so much confidence and is learning so much. Before we came here he wasn't saying as many words as he should be for his age and now he talks in full sentences. Any issues I have had have been resolved quickly and dealt with professionally.
The staff work hard and the children always come first.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Myself and my child have only ever had positive experiences with the nursery. All staff are very friendly. The rooms are set up lovely to adhere to the development of the children at each age, and the outside environment also reflects this. The menu they provide is full of variety and is a lovely balanced
meal plan. My child seems to enjoy all the food prepared. Communication between the nursery and myself is exceptional. They are always happy to listen to any queries, be it in person, on the phone or through an email- the responses are quick and have always been very helpful. They have frequent trips out into the community, which I think is essential for any child to have, to improve all aspects of their learning and development. My child is always happy and excited to be going to 'school' to see their friends and I think this just confirms the level of care given is of high standard. Would highly recommend this Nursery to anyone.

My daughter goes to kids planet butterfly Lodge and she absolutely loves it. The staff are lovely and my daughter talks about them all often even when she's at home. She settled in straight away with no issues, which was surprising as she never settled at her previous nursery. I couldn't be happier
with the care provided for my daughter. I would highly recommend the nursery.

Can't speak highly enough about Butterfly Lodge! My daughter started in the baby room and is now in the Rising 3s room, and she absolutely loves it. From the moment she started, the staff have been so warm, welcoming and attentive to her needs. They genuinely care about the children and create such
a nurturing and stimulating environment. Every day, she comes home excited to tell me about what she's been doing-whether it's messy play, outdoor adventures, or learning new songs and stories. The activities are engaging and well-planned, helping her develop both socially and academically. I've noticed such a boost in her confidence and independence since she started here!
The communication from the team is fantastic and I always feel reassured that she's in safe, capable hands. The staff go above and beyond to make sure each child feels happy and supported. It's clear they are passionate about what they do, and that makes all the difference.

My little boy is in the toddler room and absolutely loves it here, he has gained so much confidence and character since starting in November. The staff are lovely and very supportive he's learnt so much they have also helped with him not needing his dummy anymore. I couldn't ask for a better experience.

This is a brilliant nursery. Lovely staff and it is a nice environment. The only issue is the pram shed, other parents just leave the prams up without folding and I struggled to get my daughter's pram inside. I hope this gets sorted out soon. Other than that the nursery staff are brilliant!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been with Kids Planet Butterfly Lodge since September 2018 and both our children have been there from aged 1. We have never had any issues and it has been wonderful to watch it go from strength to strength. As our daughter draws to the end of her last couple of months before school I can’t be
any more grateful to all the amazing staff. She is so happy and settled, there are rarely tears at drop off and she’s always beaming when we pick her up. She has come on so much in pre-school with both her writing and her love for books. I love checking the app to see what adventures she has been on, or the games/activities they have been playing in the garden. I already feel emotional thinking about how sad we’ll all be to leave this amazing nursery that has been a huge part of our lives and the children’s development for the last 5 years. I cannot recommend them enough

Such an amazing nursery. My daughter is in the baby room and is progressing so much. We get updated regularly on an app which shows how many naps they have, what they eat and also regular photos of activities during the day.
The staff are polite and clearly care, with what seems to be great management
with a clean environment.

My daughter started at Kids Planet Butterfly Lodge in the toddler room, from the moment we went to look around and when she started. We got made to feel welcome, and everyone was lovely, there was no awkward atmosphere that you get in other settings. My daughter has come on so much. her speech since
starting there is incredible she runs straight in and is excited. They do so much for them, they are always doing activities and going for walks.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.847)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.847) out of 10 for Kids Planet Butterfly Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 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 4.847 for Kids Planet Butterfly Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (112 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.847
  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 Butterfly Lodge 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8, which has been reached with 11 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.
