This is a beautiful review, thank you! Your little one absolutely loves exploring our newly refurbished garden - with further improvements to the gardens coming soon! We can not wait to see him den building and making nature pictures with mud paint!

There are always lots of engaging activities for the children to enjoy, and I love receiving regular updates on the app. It's so reassuring to see what they've been up to throughout the day, and the app is kept updated consistently.
The whole environment is clean, organised, and welcoming, and you can tell the staff genuinely enjoy what they do. It's a lovely place, and I feel confident my boys are happy and well looked after every day.
Reply from Laura Farrell, Manager at Kids Planet Thrapston
Thank you for a beautiful review. We absolutely love having the boys at Nursery, their smiles brighten our day! They are always actively engaged in all activities, and love exploring our garden - I can not wait for them to see the upcoming changes to the garden in the coming future.

The environment is calm, clean, and thoughtfully designed
Most importantly, my baby lights up every morning when we arrive, she adores all the staff and they adore her. It's clear the staff have created a space where the children feel happy, secure, and cared for. I highly recommend the baby room at Kids Planet Thrapston to any parent looking for a supportive and engaging start for their little one.

I know that the last 6 months haven't been the greatest in terms of changing of management and ofstead etc but I think these issues have been dealt with incredibly well and the staff have been so open and honest about everything which fills me with hope, I have definitely noticed positive improvements in the nursery and I can confidently say that my daughter wouldn't be happier anywhere else.

I want to acknowledge that
While you may encounter some old negative reviews online, I'd encourage you to visit and see for yourself. In my experience, this nursery provides excellent care and education. The staff are dedicated, and the positive impact on my grandchildren's development speaks for itself.
I would confidently recommend Kids Planet to other families. The proof is in how happy and well-developed the children are.
Reply from Laura Farrell, Manager at Kids Planet Thrapston
Thank you for your lovely review. We are extremely proud of the changes we have made, and the upcoming exciting changes to happen. Our Udeskole accreditation starts at the End of September, which will focus on outdoor learning, forest school techniques, den building, and even a fire pit for toasting marshmallows!

Communication is consistent and up to date and we love seeing the pictures of our children on the app.
I love the toddler room and the leaders in there.
The chef is also my son's
The education has stepped up and I'm
so happy that the rooms have the same people every day so the kids feel more at ease and can create more stable relationships with their leaders.
I can't wait for the children to go back out on their walks and trips.

Thank you for your lovely words! We are so glad you are happy with the changes we have been working hard on. The chef's food is delicious, I must say!

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.903) out of 10 for Kids Planet Thrapston is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.903 for Kids Planet Thrapston is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.903
b) 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 Thrapston is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 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
ii) 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 61 number of registered child places is 12.2, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
