We are very happy with Kids Planet Bubbenhall - our daughter is thriving there. The staff are nurturing, have created a real sense of community and she has a great relationship with all of them. I feel confident she is happy, safe and cared for, which was my key priority when choosing childcare, and
as a parent I feel listened to and well informed. We love the outside space and that emphasis is placed on plenty of outside time/learning. I feel the balance of learning, play and emotional development is great, our daughter has come on leaps and bounds during her time there. We have noticed the setting go from strength to strength, particularly in the last year.

Reply from Lowri Bartlett, Nursery Manager at Kids Planet Bubbenhall

Thank you so much for your kind review. All the staff work extremely hard to provide best start possible for all our children.

It is a brilliant nursery with lots of outside space where both my children have gone to. They love all the staff and get excited to see them. They do lots of exciting activities including walking to Ryton pools, and fire pits and using tools. The nursery also recently put on a fantastic Christmas afternoon
for everyone. Would definitely recommend.

Our daughter has been attending the baby room at Bubbenhall since September and she absolutely loves it! When we arrive she's excited and has such a fun day while at nursery.
The nursery is very good at informing us about what she has been up to and what she's eaten etc.
Thank you for being far
from us!

Our son has been attending Kids Planet Bubbenhall since July 2023 and has been in the baby room and then is now in the toddler room. He loves going to nursery and has a really wonderful relationship with all the staff. The outside space is fantastic and it's great that they are able to use it so frequently.
The range of activities they do in the toddler room is brilliant and we love receiving the pictures and updates. We think he is developing really well thanks to the care, attention and support given by the experienced staff.

Reply from Lowri Bartlett, Nursery Manager at Kids Planet Bubbenhall

Thank you for your kind words. It is lovely watching how well he is developing in our care. He really does enjoy his days with us and all the exciting things he gets up to.

The team at Kids Planet Bubenhall have been exceptional in helping to settle both of my boys into the setting and encourage their development. The garden space is fantastic and I really appreciate their approach to outdoor play and learning. My eldest in particular was quite shy to start with but the
staff have been patient and helped to grow his confidence with others. Communication with staff has always been clear and efficient when issues have arisen. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this nursery to others.

My great-nephew has been in attendance for just over a year now. I can't fault the team at all. They have been 100% supportive and accommodating regarding some external circumstances that have occurred and he absolutely loves all the staff he interacts with. I love the outdoor play space and that regardless
of the weather they still get some outside time and love how much time is spent outdoors in the summer too. The outdoor space was also one of the reasons I chose this nursery and I have not been disappointed. I would 100% recommend this nursery. Even with some changes in staff in the last few months, there has been no change in standards of care, even when we had a change of keyworker, the transition has been very smooth.

The food is well cooked and changes all the time for variety.

My child has been attending Kids Planet Bubbenhall since she was 7 months. All the staff are fantastic, they are so supportive and brilliant role models for my child. The outdoor space they have is amazing, their theory is everything you can do inside you can do outside. Everyday there are lots of activities
taking place, they always come home messy after having a brilliant time. I will be using Kids Planet Bubbenhall until they reach school age, if I have any more children I will certainly be sending them too.

Really lovely nursery in a lovely setting. Fabulous, large outdoor space surrounded by countryside and farm animals. I've had two children pass/ still within the nursery setting over the past five years and both of them have really enjoyed their time there. The staff are very attentive and really form
excellent bonds with the children. At pick up and drop off, staff really spend time to check on the children and how they've been overnight and if there's anything they need to remember for the coming day. The children spend a lot of time outdoors in all weathers so the staff really make sure they are all wrapped up warm.
Lovely, open-ended resources and toys for the children to play with and explore.

My daughter has been coming to this nursery since she was 9 months old and she's now nearly 4 years old and wow I wouldn't send her anywhere else. From the staff, the rooms, the garden, the food, everything is outstanding. The interaction with my daughter is everything and she has learnt so much. I
put my total trust into every single member of staff and can't thank them enough for their amazing hard work. Fabulous nursery, just the best!

Our son started in September 2022 and from day 1 we knew we made the right decision. The group sizes are just perfect. He settled in very well, thanks to the kind and calm nature of the staff. I cannot praise the staff enough, they are simply brilliant with the children. We very much appreciate being
kept up to date during the day via the app. On top of this, the debrief during the handover at the end of the day is also very thorough. I am always impressed at the vast array of activities he does. Like most toddlers, he loves being outside and the outdoor facilities here are outstanding. I would highly recommend this nursery.

We have found Kids Planet Bubbenhall a fantastic nursery and have recommended it on a number of occasions. Formally known as Inside out, to which our older child attended, the high standards of care have continued. The play and education for both our children have been amazing, thus preparing our older
child extremely well for when he started Reception. The staff are dedicated, kind and attentive and go above and beyond. The facilities outside are wonderful, with a vegetable patch and a large grassed play area. Children have the space to play and enjoy themselves surrounded by lovely countryside. As a family, we couldn't be happier with both our children being extremely settled and happy there. From our perspective as parents it appears well-led and managed. The nursery has played a huge part in our child's development and we could not have picked a better nursery.

Both our children go to this nursery and they absolutely love it. We've noticed them develop so much in many ways from their vocabulary and speech to numeracy, as well as their creativity. The countryside location is beautiful and encourages outdoor time. All the staff are very welcoming and accommodating
of any of our requests. The various events throughout the year are wonderful too, such as the recent Christmas parties where the parents and grandparents could join.

My daughter is always excited to go to nursery to see both her friends and her teachers. The nursery encourages my child with daily activities and educational needs. Her development, which I credit the staff at the nursery very highly, is incredible. My child always tells me what she has done and beams
with excitement. Additionally, the nursery always gives a note at the end of the day advising of what they have eaten, any sleep had and activities they have done. My fridge is covered with artwork which has been carried out at nursery, of which my child is proud of and tells me all about how she did it. Play is commenced both inside and out, exposing my child to many different textures and activities. I can not thank the nursery enough for all the hard work they do. Folders of your child's journey indicate the level they are at, which is most helpful. My daughter is disappointed when its not a nursery day. Thank you to all the staff, truly an amazing team.

We think Inside Out is a fantastic nursery and have already recommended it to several friends. The staff are attentive, dedicated and kind. The outside space is amazing and everyone seems to go above and beyond for the children. As a family we couldn’t be happier and both our children have had a super
time there. From a parent perspective it seems especially well led and managed. It’s been a very special place for our family and we are pleased our children have the opportunity to go there.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.983)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.983) out of 10 for Kids Planet Bubbenhall 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 7 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 4.845 for Kids Planet Bubbenhall is calculated as follows: ( (72 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.845

  • 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 4.138 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Bubbenhall is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.438

  • 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.
