We are very pleased with the care our daughter receives from the nursery. She enjoys the activities and has some very close bonds with some of the staff. There is an excellent variety of food provided which sounds delicious and our daughter seems to enjoy.

Whenever I have come to collect my son, I am greeted at the door by the staff who always ask how I am doing. The staff have been so welcoming when collecting my little one. They explain in full my child's day from start to finish, inform me of his progress and what things they are working on development-wise.
I love how my child's day is posted on a handy app, which allows me to log in from work or home to see what my child has been up to, staff regularly update this app with meals, nappies, sleeps, photos and learning stories. The team aren't afraid of messy play which I think is a massive plus. The outside area is amazing with a playground area and a woodland area which my child can run around and explore. I also love the fact that my child eats better and healthier than I will during the core day! The variety of the menu is awesome.

All the nursery staff are welcoming, polite, supporting and caring. My 3-year-old daughter loves telling me about her day at nursery and anything new that she has learnt or done well. She often struggles with the nursery drop-off transition and cries but the team are always on hand to help with the
handover. They offer calm support, distraction and cuddles to ease her into the transition. Could not praise staff enough with how they make this transition easier for me too, especially with the mum guilt. The way my daughter cuddles staff members and seeks their praise reassures me how safe she feels within the nursery environment. The structure and learning opportunities have helped her thrive in her confidence, independence and readiness for school-based learning.

My son started in December 2023. The staff understood how nerve-wracking it was for me and were amazing with both of us! Seeing how well he has settled into nursery and building relationships with his peers and the staff is so heartwarming. I walk away confident that he is safe and well looked after.
The communication between parents and nursery is fantastic and I always feel involved with what is happening. Brilliant nursery and so pleased to have our son attend here.

My daughter has been here since she was 9 months old she is nearly two now. From the baby room to the toddler room, the staff have been absolutely amazing. She gets so excited when she knows it’s nursery day! I love the app so I can look through in the day to put my mind at ease. Can’t fault the management
team, they always come out of their way if I ever need a chat! Thank you Kids Planet Adswood.

My 3-year-old has been at Kids Planet for over a year and my youngest has just started in January at only five months. Highly recommend, the children have well-planned out days, lots of activities and learn so much, fabulous chef, healthy meals. All staff are very welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable.
Only place I can leave the kids knowing they are safe gives me lots of peace of mind with the app as I get updates throughout their day.

My daughter absolutely adores going into nursery every other day, insisting she goes as soon as she wakes up. All the staff excel themselves daily. Friendly, positive and professional. My little girl has thrived so much with the support, encouragement and teaching from the staff that have cared for
her and I'll be forever grateful.

My son went to this nursery, from being eight months old to him starting school, and now my one year old daughter attends. Over the whole six years that I’ve had a child at this nursery, I’ve never had any issues at all. The facilities are great, but what really makes it is the staff. Every member of
the team is absolutely fantastic and clearly loves their job. And my kids love them. I’ve got no hesitation in recommending Kids Planet Adswood to anyone looking for a nursery.

Whenever I pick my granddaughter up she's full of smiles for the staff. She really enjoys her time there, she has a really good bond with several members of staff. The manager is especially welcoming whenever I'm there and always has time for a little chat about my granddaughter's progress. I would
highly recommend this nursery.

My daughter started at Kids Planet Adswood 2 months ago at 10 months old. Like most parents, I was worried if she would settle and if I was making the right decision, but it didn’t take me long to realise I had made the right decision! She has settled in brilliantly, the staff are so caring and lovely
and overall have taken brilliant care of her. Management are brilliant too. I love seeing their activities and picture updates throughout the day! Couldn’t recommend them enough.

My son has been with Kids Planet since he was 9 months and will be ready to start reception in September. The support I have received throughout my son’s time here, as a first time mum has been invaluable. The tips and support from weaning to potty training. He loves it here and has always had an amazing
relationship with his key workers.
The regular updates on the app and assessments are great when you are stuck at work all day. My son's progression has been super and I am confident he will be school ready come September with thanks to Kids Planet.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.932)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.932) out of 10 for Kids Planet Adswood 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.932 for Kids Planet Adswood is calculated as follows: ( (182 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.932

  • 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 Adswood is based on 16 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 65 number of registered child places is 13, which has been reached with 16 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.
