Over the last 8 years, all 3 of my children have gone to Kids Planet in Lymm, my youngest now being 3. They have all thoroughly enjoyed their time and are still friends with children they met there now. It’s such a friendly warm, nurturing environment and has exceeded my expectation with how they dealt
with lockdown and the measures that have been put in place to reduce any infection risk. I have always highly recommend to others and will continue to do so.

Reply from Lucy Hollins, Deputy Manager at Kids Planet Lymm

My little boy adores going to Kids Planet in Lymm. He started at 11 months in the baby room and moved into the Tots room recently with a smooth transition and no tears. His eating, speaking and communication skills have come on so much since joining and he giggles with delight when we pull into the
car park each morning as he loves it so much. The staff are all absolutely incredible, so kind, caring and committed to all the babies and children that attend. The car parking attendant is also fantastic and so happy and welcoming each morning. Highly recommend sending your kids here. I was so anxious before my son started nursery and now I am so happy knowing he enjoys it and is so well looked after whilst I'm at work.

My daughter has been coming to Kids Planet for over a year since she was 10 months old. The hours the children can be in the nursery are flexible and seem to be longer than other local nurseries. The security is great with a car park warden and fingerprint recognition, everybody is very friendly and
all know my daughter well. The menu is varied, healthy and home-cooked.
Management are always helpful whether helping with queries on the phone, via email or in person. The app is also great at informing on what the children have been up to, what they are eating, how long they have napped, the status of their nappies and uploading progress reports. It’s great to have everything in one place and we particularly enjoy the photos and videos! They also have lots of open days for special occasions at the weekend and the children get out into and involved with the local community regularly which is great. They also have unique things like a hairdresser, a sensory room, a pet tortoise and a great garden.

I have two girls who have gone through the different classrooms and are now in the after school club. They have loved it at this nursery and have always settled in with everybody who cares for them and are happy to tell me about their day. Their chef is also really lovely and accommodating with dietary
requirements.

I have 2 children at Lymm Kids Planet, tots and preschool. They both get excited about being dropped off in the morning and have smiles on their faces when I pick them up. The staff from the staff member in the car park, management, to the children's key staff are great, helpful and happy. I believe
this helps the overall environment and something my children thrive off.

My second daughter now attends this nursery and she, as my first - loves it!
The staff are very professional, thoughtful and will always go the extra mile.
Having constant updates both face-to-face and online is excellent.
Plus, the guy in car parking always greets us with a smile and a short chat,
which is an added bonus.

Overall, a fantastic nursery with great staffing, facilities and teaching. Since my son joined the nursery when he was 9 months old, we have been thoroughly pleased with the care and attention to his well being and life lessons.

Our eldest son is now in reception and our youngest started pre-school today!
Both started at the nursery as babies and we, therefore, experienced every room with both sons.
We have nothing but praise for the key workers and their colleagues at each stage and credit the staff with making our two children
confident, nice and well mannered little boys. They are always well entertained, educated and looked after extremely well.
We would have no reservations recommending Kids Planet in Lymm.

My child has been coming since the start of July 2019 and we have noticed a considerable leap in his development in all areas, especially with his numbers and letters. We're moving away from the area and the distance will double, but we intend to keep him here because we're so happy with everyone there.

My three daughters have all attended Kids Planet and I highly recommend the nursery. Two of my daughters have since left to progress to school and the nursery couldn’t have made them more school ready; both academically and also personally and socially. I credit the nursery for preparing the girls fully
for school with both girls starting school happy and confident, making the transition seamless. All the staff at the nursery are so approachable and so caring that I have always had full confidence that my children are in safe hands. Currently, I have a baby at the nursery. Returning to work is always hard but the nursery helped both me and her to settle into a new routine. I feel confident that she is happy and I can see that she is thriving.

My eldest son started at Kids Planet in August 2016 when we moved to Lymm and has just moved into primary school, I cannot even begin to explain how much this nursery has nurtured his development, and the preparation they put into getting the children ready for school is fantastic.
My second son is
still at Kids Planet currently in rising 3’s and he looks forward to seeing his friends and the staff so much, there are always so many different activities for them to do throughout the day as well as the trips to the park, local cafes etc and my eldest even enjoyed a day at Knowsley Safari Park for his leavers trip before moving into primary school.
The menu and snacks promote healthy eating which is fantastic and I can’t wait for the time to come when my daughter will be there too as I know she will love it just as much as the boys. Keep up the great work Kids Planet!

The nursery is an excellent standard and my two youngest children have been extremely happy there. The staff are friendly and professional and have really good relationships with the children. We regularly have staff from the nursery babysitting for us and they are also always professional in our
home. I highly recommend this nursery to any parents.

I now have my second child at this nursery following my son that is now at school. I’m really pleased with the nursery, both my children have been happy there. My husband works various shifts and the nursery has been to be flexible on days attended which is much appreciated as a lot of other nurseries
will not do this.

My youngest child is currently in tots and my eldest has just left
Pre-School to go to primary school. Both children are very happy and have always received the highest level of care and love. My eldest who has just left to go to primary has been very happy in school and I know this is a result of
the teaching in Pre-School. He is doing very well with his phonics and general learning, a good reflection of all the staff in the Pre-School room. My youngest partakes in lots of fun and exciting activities in the tot's room and I love to see the pictures on I Connect. I do and will always recommend Kids Planet Lymm.

Kids Planet preschool have helped to get to know our son, helped him with potty training and welcomed him. They have a relaxed attitude. I feel he is safe there. They teach him to be more independent. Be good to see some reduction of single-use items in the nursery like nappy bags, wipes and snacks.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.345)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.345) out of 10 for Kids Planet Lymm is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 11 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.955 for Kids Planet Lymm is calculated as follows: ( (126 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.955

  • 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 4.39 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Lymm is based on 11 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 141 number of registered child places is 28.2. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 28.2 = 0.39

  • 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.
