All staff are more than welcoming to both myself and my daughter who has attended Queen Street for 4 months now. She has come on leaps within just a short period of time and comes home every day talking about all the kind staff. I have never felt so comfortable leaving her in childcare as I do with
these guys. I would recommend Queen Street to anyone in the area.

My daughter extremely like the "aunties". Every time she comes back very excited from nursery and she tells us what she did all day. Staff are very friendly and we really appreciate it, because they do more than they should do. I can really recommend the nursery.

Absolutely outstanding nursery, my daughter attended nursery from 2018 until she was 3 and my son started in 2023, I knew when I had my second child he also had to attend even though we moved out of the area we made the travel to ensure he couple also come, Queen Street always had that family feel and
I felt so at ease and happy to send him here after my daughter having such an amazing experience. My son who now attends absolutely loves coming to nursery, he has fantastic bonds with all practitioners and is developing beautifully and it's an absolute credit to all at Queen Street. They have put me at ease by catering to his food allergies and provide the most nurturing environment to help him grow and flourish. Thank you so much.

Everyone at Queen Street have been really supportive over the years our son has attended, especially through some difficult times for our family. They have provided a welcoming and caring environment for our son and he is always excited to go in the mornings. We are always amazed at the skills and vocabulary
he has picked up. Most recently their support during potty training has been invaluable.

Our son has attended Queens Street Nursery from the baby room until starting reception and now is due to start in the Out of School Club. At every step of his journey, the staff have been incredible, always friendly and approachable, and quickly establishing a positive relationship with my child. He
has flourished at Queens Street under the care of such amazing practitioners, and I will be always grateful for the care shown to him. Shout out to one lady who has been an absolute favourite in preschool - I think she may also have learnt a thing or two about dinosaurs and space! Thank you Queens Street, you are amazing!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has attended this nursery since 2021.
During this time I have got to know members of staff/key workers very well and can say that they are some of the best around! I have always felt reassured leaving my little boy in their hands and at times when he has been upset, the staff have dealt
with this so well and provided reassurance to him and myself.
The range of activities is so impressive, my son has had a great experience and has learnt a lot. In the last few months, they have begun preparation with him for school, which has helped the transition so much and again shown how dedicated to the children they are. Nothing is too much to ask the staff, they are all very accommodating. I would highly recommend this as a childcare provider.

My granddaughter has been at Kids Planet since she was a baby, she's always loved it and learnt a lot while being at Queen Street Kids Planet. The staff are always amazing with her and very caring.
I love going to collect her as she runs up to me and gives me a big hug, and is so excited to tell me
about her day and what she has enjoyed doing, and telling me about the friends she has made there.
My granddaughter is due to leave in August to go to full-time school, which will be very sad, we all will miss them very much.

My daughter has been attending Queen Street for three years. All the staff know her and greet her when they see her, and they are professional and friendly with all our dealings with them. Our daughter always comes home with a smile on her face and stories of all the fun things they have done. The staff
have supported her when needed and she has developed into a confident and inquisitive little girl. I can relax when I drop her off knowing she is in good hands. We'll miss you all when she starts school in September.

Amazing nursery! My little girl has been here since she was very small and is now in full-time school. She loves Kids Planet so much that we still do after-school clubs and she goes throughout all the holidays. The staff are so friendly, professional and personable. Our daughter also came on leaps and
bounds when she started here and has learnt so many skills from attending.

I just would like to say how great Kids Planet is at Normanton, they have been amazing with my little boy who has a disability, they have encouraged him to learn and grow and gain confidence. He has really come on in his ways since starting here last September 23. The staff are all excellent, very hands-on
and they note everything the child has eaten and when they've slept etc. They do such fun activities indoors and outdoors. The building has had a makeover and it looks excellent, really welcoming space for any child to enjoy. I cannot praise Kids Planet enough and all the staff are so lovely, my little boy really adores each and every one of you. I’d highly recommend this nursery.

My daughter has attended Queen Street since she was 10 months old. As a parent I was nervous about her attending so young and how she would cope but I had no reason to worry at all! She absolutely loves nursery still 8 months later! She’s thriving and she loves all the staff and they love her. She gets
so much from her nursery experience and I know I made the best decision to choose Queen Street! They always have interesting fun activities for her to investigate things she otherwise wouldn’t get to experience. Her key worker is amazing with her and they have such a lovely bond! She has even supported and guided me with expectations of her health which I’m extremely grateful for! The care they give is above and beyond!

All 3 of my children have been going here and they have all loved the staff and the amazing activities they have to offer them every day. My youngest child has been going for some time now and has come out of his shell so much with other children! I cannot recommend them all enough as they’re so accommodating
to mine and my children’s needs.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my son receives at Queen Street, it is by far the best nursery he’s been to and the quality of care is unmatched.
The girls are so creative and there’s always something new to every single day. My son gets so happy when I tell him we are going to nursery, and he
gets extremely excited when I tell him we are going to see his key worker!
It’s such a relief to send my son to a place where I know he’s going to get the best care, they really do go above and beyond.

Review from Amie M (Mother of Child) published on 15 February 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has a condition called Goldenhar Syndrome. This predominantly effects eyes, ears and spine, but comes with other challenges. My little boy also has developmental delay. He couldn't sit until he was 16 months and he wasn't walking or talking. His health care professionals recommended nursery.
I was reluctant as I didn't need childcare and I was dubious about whether they could look after him properly. Since he started he's thrived - he's walking, dancing and trying to run. He's started saying more words too. His key worker is amazing with him and I know that she really cares about him and looks after him well, as do all of the staff there. They've trained to meet his needs, including thickening his drinks. They have a great menu, he loves their food. They provide nappies and wipes and the things they are doing such as sending veg home to make soup etc. is a lovely touch. I love the app, I can see what he's eaten and done that day.

The staff go above and beyond to ensure my little girl's needs are met. Since joining the playroom a couple of months ago she loves going to nursery. The staff have helped her gain confidence and she now happily plays with the other children and has made good relationships with all members of staff,
and she doesn’t attach to one person all the time.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.960)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.960) out of 10 for Kids Planet Queen Street 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 40 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 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 4.960 for Kids Planet Queen Street is calculated as follows: ( (456 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 475 Ratings = 4.96
  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 Queen Street is based on 40 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 126 number of registered child places is 25.2, which has been reached with 40 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.
