Henry is my only child and I was really worried about leaving home to go back to work full time, to my job in the emergencey services. However, from the first few weeks of taking hom to Kids Planet, I've felt reassured that he is with amazing workers who not only treat him like their own but have a
genuine connection with him. He has been coming 2 years and I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

My daughter absolutely loves this nursery. She goes in smiling and confidently. She really enjoys the outdoor play.


She enjoys mealtimes and the food is always varied.


As a parent the open days are lovely and frequent. And the regular updates during the day including photos seeing your child

happy is so reassuring.

My son started with Kids Planet Bridgehead in November 24. We'd recently moved house, away from his previous setting , and I was conscious that transferring him to a new setting closer to where he'd be starting primary school would be a positive step for making new friends etc.
I was genuinely anxious
to make the move but from the moment I viewed Kids Planet and met one of the staff members, I knew we were making the right choice! All the staff, the setting it's self and the support we've received have / has been first class. The team are so friendly, passionate and engaged. They offer wonderful emotional support for their children and the families and I couldn't be happier with the outcome - my son have thrived here! I truly recommend Kids Planet Bridgehead to everyone looking for a special preschool for their child.
Reply from Karis Sanderson, Nursery Manager at Kids Planet BridgeheadThank you so much for your lovely review! We know how big a decision it can be to move settings-especially after a house move-and we're really grateful you chose Kids Planet Bridgehead to support that transition.It's wonderful to know that you felt confident from the start and that our team made you feel reassured. Your kind words about our staff and environment truly mean a lot. We're so proud to see how your son has thrived, and it's been a pleasure watching him grow and flourish.Thank you again for your trust and recommendation!

The staff are absolutely amazing and can't do enough to support not only the children in their care but the whole family. I had a really tough time recently and me and the kids were floored by it. The ladies have been so supportive and helpful and really have been a godsend to us.


My son has loved

his time in Preschool and has gone from being very shy to quite outgoing within the setting. He is going to miss everyone when he starts school in September.


Thank you for being amazing. Each and every one of you. Xxx

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.865)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.865) out of 10 for Kids Planet Bridgehead is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.865 for Kids Planet Bridgehead is calculated as follows: ( (206 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 237 Ratings = 4.865
  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 Bridgehead is based on 20 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 71 number of registered child places is 14.2, which has been reached with 20 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.
