I would recommend this nursery to everyone, the staff who work here are approachable, very friendly and professional. My little boy settled here very well and quickly. They have outdoor space which the kids love. My little boy eats here but not at home so I am really impressed. They keep him busy all
day long with activities. Feels more of a family than a business. Thank you.

I am very pleased with Kids Planet Sheepbridge. Since my little girl started she is excited to attend every time she has a session there! All the staff are very friendly and kind and caring towards my daughter. They always have plenty of time at pickup to discuss her day. There are often lots of updates
throughout the day which is nice to see how she is doing.

Kids Planet Sheepbridge have supported us as a family in the development of introducing our son to nursery. Our son needs extra support as he has missed out in social interaction skills during the pandemic. Kids Planet Sheepbridge have adjusted to every need that he requires.

We are very pleased with Kids Planet Sheepbridge. All staff are friendly and welcoming. The staff worked hard during lockdown to keep the nursery going and to keep some normality for the children. We really like that the same staff work with our son as this helps him to settle and grows his confidence.

Phenomenally devoted setting, super friendly and each and every member of staff so hard working it blows me away. Both my children wake up every morning excited for a school day and when they leave ask again if it's school the following day with smiles and excitement on their faces. Amazing setting
to unlock a child's potential and dedicated to ensuring each child's best interests are always forefront of any activity or change to the nursery. You guys are the best!

Since returning after lockdown my little boy has settled back in very well. Staff very friendly when they collect him at the door and when they bring him back. He is shy so he needs a lot of encouragement which is nice. I like the updates on the app which is very comforting. Also nursery manager very
helpful.

An exceptionally well run and caring nursery. The staff know their children on an individual basis. They engage well with them to develop their needs in an holistic way. In terms of parent engagement, their handling of and communication around the pandemic was first-rate. In normal times, they work
with parents to assist with childcare needs, even short notice requests.

We are overwhelmingly pleased with our child's progress since she started at Kids Planet Sheepbridge (formerly Jungle Days) and with the way that the nursery is run. We are safe in the knowledge that she is well looked after and constantly stimulated while making new friends and developing her social
skills. The staff are extremely helpful and support too. We are very happy parents.

My daughter attends nursery here once a week and has done for around 18 months. She is two years old and loves going to nursery. She gets excited when she sees some of the staff and always looks like she has had a great day. The staff keep you up to date on changes, sleep, food and activities when possible
which always puts my mind at rest knowing she is happy. She has progressed lots since attending and even though it is one day a week we have seen a huge difference particularly in her speech. The staff are friendly, polite, nurturing and appear to work extremely hard. The resource facilities are lovely, the menu seems varied and healthy. Overall, we couldn’t be happier. I am a teacher myself and feel happy that she is looked after well and makes good progress.

The staff are very friendly and are amazing when children get upset; when parents are leaving. They put parents at ease as well as the children, and give feedback daily of food eaten, nappy changes and activities.
Healthy, fresh snacks and meals are served.
The nursery and hallways are very clean.

I have been using this nursery since 2017. I am comfortable with this nursery and the staff even though in 2019 they were taken over by a new company things still remain good. My children have always been really happy here and enjoyed their time here. Staff members have made every effort to make me
and my children feel welcome. My son always has a good dietary intake and gets to enjoy the outdoor areas if he chooses to regardless of weather. The nursery have also had yearly family fun days which we enjoyed. They also asked parents what they would like from the nursery or suggestions and therefore parents feel valued.
Nursery is open good hours and even have an after-school club and breakfast club for older children. I recommend this nursery

Staff are great, they communicate daily. They understand a child's separation anxiety and help the child to work through it. My child loves nursery while there, and she is fully occupied and wants to learn. The room and hallway are always clean and tidy. Nappies are changed regularly.


I am so happy

I chose The Jungle Day Nursery.

Both my son and daughter go to the nursery. My son has been there from baby room to pre-school. They both love it. They have had times they don't want Mummy to go but the staff are fantastic with them giving them reassurance.
When my little boy has been changing rooms they have done lots of settling
sessions to help that progression. Make it feel more of a flow and not a big jump. Staff are always friendly, helpful and work with parents as well as the children.

Our daughter really enjoys nursery, she teaches us the songs she learns and tells us about her day. I would like the quality of the food to be improved but it is varied and they try new things.


Any questions and queries and complaints are dealt with quickly and professionally. Our daughter has come

on a long way since she started nursery at 8.5 months old.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.402)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.402) out of 10 for Kids Planet Sheepbridge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 12 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 4.846 for Kids Planet Sheepbridge is calculated as follows: ( (122 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.846

  • 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 4.556 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Sheepbridge is based on 12 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.556

  • 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.
