I love how the staff treat my child, they treat them with so much love, if the kids need anything they will get it them. If they need a cuddle they will cuddle them. I’m so happy I chose this nursery I couldn’t imagine putting my child anywhere else. They are well fed they speak to the children so lovely.
The staff are awesome.

Wonderful nursery. Brilliant staff members. My granddaughter loves this nursery. She was shy at first but she is great now. They have helped me potty train her which was a big help.
They have taught her to sing, colours, numbers and much more.
This nursery is run very well thanks to the manager.

My children love coming to the nursery and have settled really well. The staff are very friendly and approachable and meet the children's needs to a high standard. Their communication skills are fantastic and on handover and pick-up, I always feel they take the time to give you all the relevant information.
I really enjoy seeing the photos of activities they have been doing online. The management team always greets you on arrival and is very professional and approachable if I have any concerns/information I wish to discuss, they always make the time to chat with me.

My little girl started in February and if I'm honest I was so worried about leaving her and thought she would find it hard but it's rather the opposite. She absolutely loves going and on the days she's not in, she's saying she wants to go. The staff are brilliant and really help not only the children
in their care but also support the parents if needed. Can't fault this nursery.

Can't fault this nursery my child has allergies and they always go above and beyond to make sure she gets similar foods as the other children within her boundaries, also we are currently potty training and that is going amazingly. Since starting my child has really become a little brainbox the conversations
we have are amazing for a 3 year old and she knows so much more than I could imagine and that is all from the learning she has done within the nursery setting, overall an amazing nursery and I will be sending my next child here and my grandchild also comes here again who at the age of 2 has the vocabulary and understanding of a much older child

My granddaughter has been attending this nursery since she was old enough to go and has loved every minute. She looks forward to going and has formed good relationships with the staff. The parent hub is a great asset as you can keep updated on the different things your little one is doing during each
session and the staff are very informative. Great little nursery.

My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting this nursery in 2021. Her confidence has grown huge amounts and she's learnt so much since being there. The staff are amazing, helpful, kind and polite. They make sure to bond with the children so they always feel comfortable going into the nursery,
my daughter has had two key workers. One when she was in the baby room and one now she's in the toddler room and both workers have been absolutely brilliant with her. I couldn't be happier that my daughter attends such a brilliant nursery.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.958)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.958) out of 10 for Kids Planet Blackpool 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 4.958 for Kids Planet Blackpool is calculated as follows: ( (276 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 287 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Blackpool 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 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 87 number of registered child places is 17.4, 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.
