Kids Planet Halesowen is a safe, happy, and fun nursery, that my little girl loves to attend. As a fussy Mom, with a lot of worries about leaving my daughter with anyone, the staff here make the process so easy.
Thank you for everything.

I can't speak highly enough of all the team here. My little boy has learnt so much and has had the best time. The staff here are so loving and nurturing and have surpassed both myself and my partners expectations. Five particular members of staff are absolute diamonds. Two other members of staff are
so supportive and understanding, and I speak for my son when I say, we're so upset to be leaving.

Both of our children have thrived here and we wouldn't have chosen anywhere else to send our second. The staff are always friendly, supportive and build strong attachments with the children. They challenge all children and put a great deal of though and preparation into supporting those with SEND.

Our son started nursery at Kids Planet Halesown when he was around a year old in 2022. Since day one, everyone at this place has always been friendly and supportive. Now he's nearly four years old and ready to start his journey at his primary school. I would just like to take this opportunity to say
a massive thank you do all the support and help provided to our son throughout the years. All the very best!

All staff are very polite, professional and friendly, always happy to help if you have any queries or concerns. My son settled here very quickly, no problems, he especially loves the outdoor area and to play outside. I feel it has prepared him well for when he starts reception in September. Many thanks.

I don't know quite what the words are to describe how fabulous my experience has been. My daughter has thrived here. She has developed, made friends, tried new things and been so happy here for over three years! All the staff that have cared for her have contributed to helping us raise a confident,
happy, thoughtful little girl. She is absolutely ready for her next ready for her next steps, and I cannot thank all her teachers enough!

So sad that my last baby has now left this wonderful nursery - "end of an ear"!
All the staff always go above and beyond to help all the children grow. So much care and support goes into their development. Always a massive welcoming smile on drop off/pick up. We will all miss the staff and the nursery.

I cannot thank the staff at Kids Planet Halesowen enough for all their hard work and support that they have shown towards my son who has a speech delay and is currently being diagnosed with Autism. They have also been an amazing support for us as a family, and the advice and support they have given
us has been amazing.
My son has been here since June 2021 and he has blossomed ever since.

My child has attended Kids Planet through each of the age-related class groups - babies, toddlers, rising threes and preschool. In all classes, I have found the staff to be genuinely caring and supportive of my child's needs. The nursery do a brilliant job in developing an age-appropriate itinerary
of activities each day. The team keep me informed of how my child is progressing through daily updates on the parent app as well as always taking the time to speak in person at drop-off and collection time. My child loves going to nursery here which is the ultimate endorsement.

We’ve been sending our daughter to Kids Planet Halesowen since September 2023. She started in the baby room and is progressing to the toddler room in January 2024. We cannot fault the nursery, staff and facilities.
Nursery are great at doing activities that are helping her to develop and meet her milestones,
but what I love the most is that the staff in her room are all so caring and nurturing. I can tell she genuinely seems to feel safe and loved when she’s in their care. I can go to work feeling confident that she’s happy.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.883)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.883) out of 10 for Kids Planet Halesowen 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.883 for Kids Planet Halesowen is calculated as follows: ( (296 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 333 Ratings = 4.883

  • 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 Halesowen is based on 28 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, which has been reached with 28 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.
