My son has been doing so good at Kids Planet North Wingfield, we appreciate all staff for looking after him, especially the babyroom’s key workers. He had loads of his “first time” there, and he enjoyed his time with his little friends there. We have no hesitation to recommend it.

Very friendly staff will always go the extra mile to help and support the children - regular updates and pictures sent via the app throughout the day which puts you at ease while at work - cannot recommend this nursery enough.

Kids Planet North Wingfield is an excellent nursery. My son absolutely loves it here. All of the staff are lovely and are just amazing. Always there to help with any of your child's needs. Couldn't recommend it anymore! My son has some additional learning needs and all the staff are so accommodating
and helpful in every way they can.

My son has been going to Kids Planet for a year in April. His confidence and communication has come on leaps since starting and he really enjoys going to nursery. The staff are great at keeping you updated throughout the day and give good feedback at collection, not to mention they are all lovely ladies!
I would 100% recommend Kids Planet to others.

My son started to attend Kids Planet North Wingfield when he was 9 months old. He has always been happy there and very well looked after. The staff are fantastic at making every day so fun whilst aiding with the children’s development.
It’s so lovely to be able to drop him at nursery and not have
to worry and know that he will have a brilliant day.

We cannot recommend Kids Planet (North Wingfield) highly enough! Our son started at 10 months old, which was a difficult time, but they made the transition for us both, smooth and all my worries went away. The environment is clean and stimulating for the children, and encourages them to learn and make
progress with their development. Our son has learnt so much since he started and now they are helping with his potty training! All the staff are warm, friendly and approachable - and it is obvious they have a passion for children and the expertise to ensure they are safe and thrive in their care. They care about the community and are an integral part of it! Thanks again Kids Planet!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was so apprehensive about sending my daughter to nursery but I am so glad I did. From the first day she went for her settling in session to this day she absolutely loves going. When we pull up outside on a morning she starts shouting and smiling with excitement! The girls who look after her during
the day are lovely and so caring and I do feel like they treat each child they care for as if they was their own. The app is absolutely brilliant and it updated regularly throughout the day so I can see photos of my daughter, meals she’s eaten and other things which really puts my mind at rest.
I’m going back to work full time so my daughter will be attending nursery a lot and although it hasn’t been an easy decision, knowing how happy my daughter is at nursery has made it a whole lot easier for me!


I can’t thank all the staff enough for what they do, especially during these challenging times! I wouldn’t send my daughter anywhere else! Thank you so much!!

The staff have really helped my child come along way in his development. He really enjoys going and he always wants to go in even on his off days.
He enjoys all the variety of activities and even splashing about in any form of water.
The staff are exceptional and I can’t thank them enough for what
they have done for my child.
I would definitely recommend them 11/10 all the way.

I would highly recommend Kids Planet - North Wingfield to any parent. It is a safe, clean and caring environment. Every member of staff is friendly, approachable and fully committed to the children they care for, they are passionate about what they do and they are always thinking of new and exciting
ways for the children to learn, have fun and form friendships. We love listening to the tales of a typical nursery day.
Our daughter has been at the nursery since she was 10 months old and has formed very close bonds with all members of staff, she adores them all. Last year she had a difficult time adjusting to returning following lockdown but the hard work, care and commitment of the staff helped her settle back in, for this, we cannot thank them enough as it means she is back to enjoying the safe, friendly environment learning skills that will set her up for school life and beyond. I know that when the time comes for her to go to school she will be sad to leave and miss everyone so much.

Could not recommend Kids Planet (North Wingfield) enough! Our kids have attended nursery for the past 3 ish years and they have absolutely loved it! They settled in as if it was their second home!
The staff are absolutely outstanding individuals, always lookout for the best interest of each child
and their needs, as well as exceptional support towards parents also.
We feel that North Wingfield Kids Planet is a safe and well-maintained environment for any child. Plenty of space for kids to play and explore with lots of resources, a variety of healthy meals every day, and information for parents is regularly provided (yet easily accessible).
It's sad to say that we are soon coming to the end of our nursery journey. We have shared great memories, great friendships, and everyone will be well and truly missed! Thank you for giving our kids the best introduction to education.

The staff are all very friendly, helpful and knowledgable. I get regular updates on my daughter's progress. My little girl is learning every day and enjoys spending time here. She enjoys the new activities and learns something new every day. Her confidence has grown and I’m sure she will really miss
everyone when she starts school this year. Excellent place for our children to learn through play.

Would definitely recommend this nursery for your child to attend. All staff go above and beyond to give your child an enjoyable and memorable nursery experience. They're always planning fun activities/experience for children to get involved with. They communicate well with parents about your child and
my child is always learning new things. My child has come on loads developmentally since he started in November 2020 thanks to the staff in his room.

My daughter has been going for nearly a year now. She has grown in confidence more and more every day. The baby staff were lovely when she was in there and help me feel comfortable with leaving her and since moving down into toddlers she’s come on leaps and bounds and doesn’t stop talking about the
girls and how much they are her best friends. I would highly recommend it to my friends as I would love them to feel as comfortable as I do with leaving their children while having to work.

I would highly recommend Kids Planet Day Nurseries - North Wingfield, all staff are a strong, polite, outgoing, passionate team, and work extra lengths to ensure the children are comfortable and happy within the environment. My little girl made close relationships with the staff and children, she was
very shy at first around the children but her confidence has grown a lot since being in the nursery from two years old in the toddler room, thanks to the staff. We thank them and especially the manager for making my daughter feel welcome and supported.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.965)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.965) out of 10 for Kids Planet North Wingfield 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.965 for Kids Planet North Wingfield is calculated as follows: ( (278 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 288 Ratings = 4.965
  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 North Wingfield is based on 24 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 24 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.
