Kids Planet is amazing. They have great communication, the staff are friendly and very attentive. The outdoor areas are lovely and the nursery, in general, has a warm, calm feeling to it. My son loves the staff there and really enjoys going in.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been very happy with quality of care our son has been getting since moving him to Kids Planet Hoylake in October. From the moment we looked around we could tell the nursery was professionally ran and as we looked around the rooms all the children were so happy and engaged which to us said it
all.


Our son settled very quickly and we have seen a huge improvement in his confidence which is thanks to the hard work of the girls. He adores them and always comes home excited to tell us about his day.


We have had really good communication with the team and wouldnt hesitate to recommend Kids Planet Hoylake to prospective parents.

My daughter started at Kids Planet 5 months ago, after being recommended by a friend. As a lockdown baby, I was worried she wouldn't settle very well but her key worker was fantastic and really made sure she was comfortable and happy. Kids Planet Hoylake are so friendly ad welcoming and I have noticed
such a vast difference in my daughter's development. We couldn't have picked a better nursery!

We moved to the area in April 2021 and found the team at Kids Planet so incredibly helpful and welcoming. Our eldest son was here for five months before moving to the local school for his foundation year - he loved it here and has stayed friends with lots of the kids he made friends with here. Our little
boy loves it here - his key workers are so lovely and always have time for us. Very thorough and professional.

My son is thriving at Kids Planet Haylake. He enjoys a fun-packed day. The provision was the best in comparison to all the local nurseries I observed. My son has a superb relationship with his key worker. She is like his daytime mummy. I couldn't be happier with the level of care he gets.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.614)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.614) out of 10 for Kids Planet Hoylake 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 15 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 4.938 for Kids Planet Hoylake is calculated as follows: ( (167 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 178 Ratings = 4.938
  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 4.676 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Hoylake is based on 15 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 111 number of registered child places is 22.2. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 22.2 = 0.676
  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.
