My son recently started at Kids Planet Denton and has settled amazingly well. This is greatly down to the staff who are all so friendly and attentive, from early morning drop-offs to pickups you are always greeted with a smile.
The whole process from application to settling in sessions and starting
is so well organised it makes a daunting process really straightforward. I am so grateful that I have been able to return to work confident that my son is happy, content and well taken care of. Updates via the app throughout the day provide extra peace of mind.
Thank you to all at Kids Planet, especially to two particular staff members in the baby room for making a first-time mum feel reassured that her baby is in good hands.

Reply from Yvonne Pinkney, Nursery Manager at Kids Planet Denton

My son has been there since he was 9 months and the nursery was called Teddy Bears. We loved it there and we continue to do so.
The staff, the other kids and parents.
He is now leaving as he will start reception and he will miss nursery.
He bonded very well with all the kids and staff and seeing
his joy while there was amazing.
I loved it's a sugar-free nursery and I've seen a lot of improvement since becoming a Kids Planet nursery.
The essence of the nursery hasn't changed, but there were improvements and investments there.
They are very open to conversations and to accommodate requests where possible.

My little girl absolutely loves Kids Planet Denton, we took her out to attend a new setting due to work change and put her back in Kids Planet due to the level of care they provide for the children, they go above and beyond for my little girl and I couldn't be any happier with the informative app, collections
and reports we receive, it's outstanding!

My son has been going to this nursery since he was 8 months old and is now nearly 3 years old, we viewed lots of nurseries and the minute we walked into this one we knew it was the right choice for us. They are his second family and look after him so well and he's created such great bonds with all his
nursery nurses. The chef makes the nutritional varied meals each day and they communicate via an app throughout the day. I genuinely believe they have been a massive part in growing the qualities and personality he has today. Thank you so much to everyone at Kids Planet Denton.

My child has been attending this nursery since last September. I have nothing but praise for this nursery and all the staff that work there. They are all very caring and kind towards my child. When my child's reception teacher came to see my child in this setting he said he has been to many nurseries
and this was one of the best he has been to. It's very clean and tidy and my child is always kept busy with lots of different activities including messy play and outdoor play. My child is very fussy with his food but the nursery have always been very accommodating with this. I would highly recommend to everyone wanting a loving and caring setting for their child!

We love Kids Planet Denton. Our little girl has come on leaps and bounds with her speech and development since going there. Staff are always kind and friendly and so hard working. She comes home happy and tells us all about her day. They are brilliant if she ever needs tweaks to her day or care, they
always take our wishes into account. She has great relationships with her key workers. They are so child-led and I love that the kids can get messy and have fun. We are so happy with this nursery!

The staff are really friendly and caring towards the children. My daughter loves going in each day. She has really progressed with her speech (2 years old) and other skills such as interacting with other children. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.281)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.281) out of 10 for Kids Planet Denton 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 9 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 4.935 for Kids Planet Denton is calculated as follows: ( (101 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.935

  • 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 4.346 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Denton is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 101 number of registered child places is 20.2. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 20.2 = 0.446

  • 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.
