Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We love Kids Planet! We moved to the area a year ago and the staff did a brilliant job of settling our son in quickly, as well as moving him seamlessly to an older room a few months later. He always has a great day there and the child-led approach is very apparent. The activities they do always seem
fun, interesting and stimulating, plus the wider pastoral care they receive is second to none - each member of staff seems to really get to know the children and work to meet whatever needs they have. The setting itself is also lovely - bright, clean, spacious and inviting. Plus the food menus sounds great too.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was so nervous putting my little boy into a nursery at nine months old as my oldest stayed with family. On our first settling in session I had a full tour of the nursery which was so clean and modern and I got to sit in the baby room with my son and chat to the staff while he played. When I’m at work
I’m updated throughout the day on the parent app so I know what he’s had to eat and they put lovely pictures and videos of him exploring new things and having fun. I love this and makes me feel like I’m still with him so I don’t worry about him while I’m at work. My son loves coming to nursery, he is learning so much and picking things up so quickly! Even after lock down I was so nervous bringing him back in as he became very clingy of me but after the first week of tears leaving him he had settled back in great and is happy going in again. This is thanks to the most amazing staff who are so loving to the children and really put their heart into the job. I could not thank you enough.

I cannot recommend Kids Planet Hoylake highly enough. The beautiful, spacious rooms and garden areas are extremely well-equipped and clean and encourage a fun and happy learning experience. The staff are dedicated and committed, and communication with parents is excellent. The amount of imaginative
and fun activities that the staff design and deliver never fails to impress me. My son has grown in confidence since attending and he loves going. We will be sad when he has to leave to go to school.

Clean, organised, helpful, engaging and try to come up with solutions to problems like difficult eaters. Lots of different activities available each day including outside play - all age suitable. Involves the children in the local community e.g. walks to the shops, care home visits, bonfire night, Christmas
Tree Festival etc. Tries to engage parents for new ideas.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended this nursery for just shy of a year. The nursery have worked so well with my odd working hours. When I changed my job they were quick to change the hours in which my son attends and he settled into full-time nursery very quickly.
The meals that are available are a wide range and
healthy. The parent app is amazing which helps parents see what their child has eaten, been changed, observations that have been done but also what they have eaten and how much. He loves going into nursery and lives for their routine which they have in place. He can access everything you could imagine within the setting.
The staff are amazing and so professional. Would highly recommend this nursery to all my friends.
Only downside is parents have to pay for children if they are on holiday. If anything it should be a discounted amount.

All the staff have been very helpful and reassuring in supporting out one-year-old into nursery life (of our child and of us the parents). The facilities are new, bright and engaging. Our older child also, enjoyed it here and was supported in her transition from nursery to school, we felt she was cared
for very well here. Thank you.

Seems good. My son enjoys being here, which is the most important thing. I like that he is made to remove his dummy, during his time here. I'm disappointed that we need to pay for bank holidays, as he only comes on a Monday. It doesn't seem fair, perhaps that's why Monday's are relatively quiet? I think
we'll look to move.

Our daughter joined in November 2018, from the off she was made to feel very welcome by all the team. She absolutely loves the nursery and even talks about it over the weekend. We have seen a clear improvement in her development since joining. Overall, we are extremely impressed and happy with the care

Kids Planet consistently impresses with their level of care for my 3-year-old daughter.
The building is modern, clean and full of funfilled activities and educational games for her to do.
The staff are friendly, informative and genuinely make you feel at ease leaving your little one with them.
They
engage the children with lots of extracurricular trips, which my daughter loves.
It's an absolute pleasure to see how my daughter has grown and developed since attending the nursery.

I tell everyone to use this nursery, the staff are amazing with my daughter, I travel from my house 20 minutes in the opposite direction to work to bring her here. She loves the staff, they are always doing new and interesting activities with her to help her grow and learn. They even tailor a plan for
her exact needs and food requirements if there’s something I don’t want her eating.
They even have this app that they use and we use to add activities she has done throughout the day. I can go on and look to see what she’s eaten, napped and when her nappy is changed.
I love it, my daughter has been here since 4 months old and my future children will be coming here too.

My child is so settled at Kids Planet. After a thorough settling in process for both myself and my son, I felt extremely happy leaving him in the care of the wonderful staff. He seems to have lots of fun during his day, taking part in lots of things, stimulating activities in a highly secure environment.
I definitely made the right choice choosing Kids Planet.

Kids Planet Day Nurseries - Hoylake is a very special nursery. The facilities are second to none with fabulous resources and outdoor space but more importantly, the staff are amazing. It is clear they care about all the children and their individual qualities. My two boys (2 & 4) have attended this
nursery for over 6 months now and have thrived and flourished in this environment.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has attended since January 2019 and we are more than happy with our choice of nursery.
The staff are fantastic and very attentive, all the staff always speak to us and address my little boy by his name even if they don't work directly with him.
Fantastic outdoor facilities and make
good use of the community and local area with regular visits to the library, park and beach.
Excellent food menu with a wide variety of meals and you don't see the same meal repeated too often.
The nursery uses an app which makes it really easy to manage bills and it updates throughout the day with meal and observation updates.
I can't recommend this nursery enough, if you are looking for a nursery in the area go and view this nursery, you will not be disappointed.

My twin girls have been attending Kids Planet Day Nurseries - Hoylake now since February. Due to having to return to work early, the girls were only 10 months old, I was very nervous leaving the girls at this age. But the manager and her team couldn’t have been more accommodating ensuring I was at complete
ease leaving the girls.
Now the girls wave to us going in and get so excited as they enjoy every second of being there. The progress they are making shocks me weekly. I can’t portray into words how amazing the staff have been and still are. The ap is brilliant for keeping us updated throughout the day. The staff go above and beyond, with small gestures of making birthday cards for Nan without being asked and helping myself with good ideas at home as the menu at the nursery is excellent. Overall it’s a 10 out of 10 nursery for me and would definitely recommend to others.

It is an incredible place. The staff are enthusiastic and progressive. They are fantastic communicators who always keep me up to date online and personally. They are always doing fun things with the children, visiting a beach, farm, ponies, Chinatown in Liverpool for Chinese New Year. My son gets a
lot of love and personal attention.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.949)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.949) 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 5.0 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.958 for Kids Planet Hoylake is calculated as follows: ( (250 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 261 Ratings = 4.958
  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 4.991 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Hoylake is based on 22 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 111 number of registered child places is 22.2. 22 Positive Reviews ÷ 22.2 = 0.991
  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.
