My son clearly enjoys the nursery and is well looked after. The staff are friendly and caring and have good bonds with the children. The app is regularly updated with what my son has been doing and his progress, which is nice to see as a parent. Overall a nice and friendly nursery with lots of playtime.

We are extremely grateful for the care and support our son receives at the nursery. The management team are kind, caring and extremely responsive. All the key workers care for the children and support their individual needs and learning journeys. My son loves coming to nursery every day and I feel reassured
knowing he is such capable hands. I can't recommend Kids Planet Woodstock strongly enough to other parents. A big thank you to all the nursery!

Our son is very happy here. He is very attached to the staff in his room and enjoys spending time in the garden. The whole team has been very supportive with potty training. I appreciate the team's friendliness, everyone knows my son's name and says hello/goodbye to him and me when we enter and leave.

Excellent care at a very reasonable price. Activities are well thought out each day, tactile and the staff a pleasure to deal with. Our daughter enjoys the outdoor activities in particular and the equipment. She looks forward to attending and playing with her friends daily.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am really happy with the way all of the staff and management have been with getting my son accustomed to a new environment as he just moved from India and this is his first nursery. Staff at the nursery made sure he felt included, even though English was alien to him. I really appreciate the patience
and support provided to me.

Review from H J (Father of Child) published on 26 February 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending this nursery for about nine months now. She first joined in the ‘Toddlers’ section and is now a part of the ‘Rising 3s’. Overall, I am extremely happy with the quality of care and affection, attention to kids’ learning, indoor and outdoor activities, and the emphasis on
connection with nature. I have seen my daughter bloom thanks to the exposure and interactions she has had with the carers and other children in the nursery. She has picked up language very quickly and she is slowly developing social and advanced motor skills as well. I find that her key persons have gone out of their way to make her feel comfortable and loved. One example was that when we went on a holiday for a few weeks, the carers gave photos of my daughter playing with them so that she would remember them and not lose touch. This little action helped her transition smoothly back into the nursery after our return. I strongly recommend this nursery to other parents with young kids.

Kids Planet has been wonderful for our son. All the staff, both in his room and the office, know him by name and how he is doing. We were initially nervous to send him to nursery, but he loves it and being around other small children has been so good for his development.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the very first day, about a month and a half ago, that our two daughters began attending Kids Planet Woodstock Road, we've had a wonderful experience.
Despite our older daughter, who is in preschool, initially not speaking any English, the team skillfully engaged with her, quickly winning her
over and now she absolutely adores the place. The staff's professionalism is exceptional and we've noticed their attentive care to her needs, evidenced by her eagerness and big smile each day. Our younger daughter, who is in the baby room, has had a smooth settling-in process, thanks to an incredibly supportive and accommodating team that respected our family's routines and habits.
They consistently keep us informed and maintain communication with us about her day as necessary. From management to every staff member, it's clear that there's genuine care and dedication at work, all contributing to the nurturing and positive environment we feel in the nursery!

Our two children began at Kids Planet Woodstock Road just recently and the experience has been way beyond expectations. the staff and facilities are phenomenal, the warmth is palpable. We were a bit anxious starting our four-year-old and one-year-old in such a different environment than they were used
to but it couldn't be going more smoothly. There is more than enough love and joy in that building to go around.

We recently started our four year old daughter and one year old son at Kids Planet Woodstock. To say it has been a brilliant start would be an understatement. Our daughter was initially meant to go three days, but begged us to go every day after the first week (and so we caved). She is already flourishing,
building strong relationships with the teachers and fellow students. They have been excellent at adjusting our heretofore rather sheltered son to the social setting quickly and he's already comfortable and happy there. Would give Kids Planet Woodstock high marks across the board.

My daughter has attended Kids Planet Woodstock Road since the age of one year. She is now almost four years old and is in the preschool room. Over the years we have watched her grow in confidence and is a very outgoing child. I credit the team with creating a very fun and nurturing environment - where
kids can just be kids! In my experience, every staff member I have encountered has been wonderful, and clearly very dedicated to the work they do. We could not have hoped for a better childcare experience!

My daughter had a great time at the nursery/rising threes'. She was well taken care of by the nursery staff and she was very happy to be there. My husband and I were very pleased to see that the nursery made changes to the nursery environment as that excited my daughter very much. They could do a little
bit better with the food as my daughter might need sometimes more encouragement. Otherwise we are looking forward to her being at preschool and creating memories there.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.825)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.825) out of 10 for Kids Planet Woodstock Road is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.825 for Kids Planet Woodstock Road is calculated as follows: ( (307 Excellents x 5) + (63 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 371 Ratings = 4.825
  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 Woodstock Road is based on 31 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 82 number of registered child places is 16.4, which has been reached with 31 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.
