Our son has been at this nursery since he was in the baby room. Whilst the nursery has been through a number of changes, the latter changes and new management have definitely been positive. There are a number of staff in the preschool room that my son adores and they make me feel at ease when he comes
to nursery.

Both my son and daughter have attended here since they were 10 months, my son is currently in pre-school and my daughter is in babies, both settled in well and have a good relationship with their key workers and other staff, they are comfortable expressing their needs and I'm reassured that their needs
are always met. The building is a clean and welcoming place and there is a good variety of toys and activities for the children to choose from in each room. I love that there is a good and increasing focus on outdoor time for all the age groups, my son in particular will excitedly recount things they've got up to outside. I feel the staff know my children well, the communication is really good and I feel informed on what stage both my children are at. I get a detailed report at the end of each day with food eaten, naps, nappies, any accidents/incidents and general behaviour throughout the day.

My son has been attending this nursery since he was 9 months old. The staff are all so friendly, welcoming, and supportive. They have a great outdoor space with lots of new things to teach them, skills, and safety. Also, have lots of different activities to do indoors. They give you a full rundown
of the day they've had, meals naps, etc. Fantastic nursery and glad my son gets to experience going here.

This is an excellent nursery, my son really gets on with the staff there, and they cater to his needs very well. He is always tired after a fun day, full of activities and great homemade food. He started in August and settled in very quickly mostly due to the great staff.

My daughter has been at this nursery since she was a baby, I cannot fault the team there. Especially since turning to Kids Planet. They maintain a fun yet safe environment where development is truly encouraged. My daughter has a dairy intolerance and her dietary requirements a met extremely well, they
don't just pass her of with very basic food but instead make sure she has a healthy, delicious and interesting alternative which you can tell has had serious thoughts put into it. All the staff are friendly and give you a full rundown of your child's day when it comes to home time.

The staff are always very accommodating. My son is potty trained at home but distracted at nursery, the staff are very good at helping him to recognise signs that he needs to go to the toilet. My son loves the outdoor space and there is a lot to choose from. Every member of staff has taken the time
to get to know my son. The nursery itself is very secure to enter the building the staff must verify who you are. At the end of the day you get a staff member taking time to inform you what your child has had to eat which is great.

This is a lovely little nursery with a family feel to it. It is run by an excellent manager who is passionate about the children, their progress, and ensuring it's a safe, clean and fun environment. Every single one of the staff members is warm and welcoming and my daughter loves attending. I love the
fact that they are promoting outdoor play, as I believe outdoor play has such a positive impact on a child's mental and physical wellbeing. It is very clear when I collect my daughter that she has been cared for, nurtured, and most importantly has had hours of fun! I would absolutely recommend this nursery to anyone and firmly believe any child would thrive here.

My child attended nursery and settled in so well. The rooms and staff are so welcoming and friendly.
The facilities on offer and structure of the nursery are fantastic - from the amazing outdoor space to various rooms for messy play, creative play, role play, and sensory areas.
My daughter developed
lots of new skills, made new friends, and most importantly had lots of fun.
All staff are very passionate & knowledgeable and the relationships they develop with the children is so good.
The communication from the nursery to parents and the handover after each session from the keyworker is excellent.
I would highly recommend this nursery.

My eldest child went to this nursery from age 1 until starting school and my youngest is currently there and has been since 9 months. They both love their time at nursery, the staff are so friendly and caring towards them and very accommodating.
They get a good variety of home-cooked meals and snacks
and the handovers at pickup time are very detailed with sleep times, nappy changes, etc.
The manager is very approachable. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Excellent nursery with staff who genuinely know the children throughout. It's like a big family home where everyone knows one another. Staff are all approachable, I like that the staff changeover is low so our son gets a consistency of carers from babies through to pre-school.
The food served is of
good quality, the nursery is clean and well-equipped with a good choice of activities and space.
The most important thing is our son is always very happy to go and talks of a fantastic day at preschool. The relationship with staff is above and beyond and they are extremely warm and friendly.
My only improvement: although we have a day-to-day update on our son's day, I would like to see more of a progression in terms of learning i.e. a parents' evening, if it was once a year or something around how he is meeting his milestones. I don't feel as his parents we know how he is developing in his areas and I would welcome that. The parental portal is a nice thoughtful screenshot of his time in the nursery.

My son has been attending the nursery for around a year now and we are delighted by his development in this time. There were a few little issues during the early stages but these were dealt with very quickly by the staff with excellent communication with ourselves throughout. All the staff are supportive
and give us advice on the varying stages of toddler life as well as reassuring us at times. My son has developed a great bond with the staff and other children, while also developing greatly himself throughout the time he has been attending. He enjoys going to nursery and that is a big win for us. He is well looked after and the food options are nutritional and plentiful. We would definitely recommend Kingfisher and thank you to everyone there. Thank you.

My twins have now been attending Kingfisher Day Nursery for 3 months. They enjoy all the time they spent there, they always smile when we arrive and are so happy to go inside and see everyone. Everyday I receive a detailed report when I collect them and are fully informed about their day.

I have been using Kingfisher for my pre-school children from ages 8 months old onwards since 2014, currently on child 3 through the nursery. The environment is warm and welcoming, nothing is ever too much trouble for the staff, they are very accommodating and friendly. Generally, a lovely environment
to go to where my children run happily in. A child’s behaviour about a place says it all in my opinion. Highly recommended!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.632)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.632) out of 10 for Kids Planet Kilburn 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.879 for Kids Planet Kilburn is calculated as follows: ( (117 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.879

  • 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 4.753 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Kilburn 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 73 number of registered child places is 14.6. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.6 = 0.753

  • 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.
