My daughter has been at the nursery for 2 months in the baby room and I cannot praise the team enough. They are always happy and smiley with cuddles for my little girl when she comes through the door. If she is upset when I leave they make sure she has focused care and help distract her. At the end
of the day they are knowledgeable about her day and use so much positive language it makes my heart burst. I trust the team unreservedly with my child. The space for my child to play and develop in is well thought out and welcoming. They also get to go on trips out to the park and local walks so my girl gets to be in nature and experience different environments. They also serve a wide variety of foods. There is an app that keeps you up with your child's day. I would like to see more on this app but I understand that caring for the children comes before uploading pictures and I am grateful they prioritise the little ones. I am so happy I found this nursery.

My grandson recently started at Hazelhurst he is a child with complex needs and has Downs Syndrome. The manager and all staff have been fantastic in how they have catered to my grandson's needs and the care given to him. When trying to seek a placement in a nursery for him we found it difficult due
to his extra needs and care. The manager was so accommodating to his needs, and nothing was too much trouble. I am so happy he's now in Hazelhurst Nursery as I feel this really is the best place for him to be and he could not be cared for anywhere better. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone every staff member has been really professional and caring and Hazelhurst definitely deserves to be acknowledged for this.

My daughter has attended this nursery since Kids Planet took over. I had initial concerns as a lot of the staff were new so there was a lot of change but my concerns were listened to and my suggestions actioned immediately by management. I am impressed by their response and communication and my daughter
is very happy here.

My son is in toddler 1 room and my husband and I are really pleased with how quickly he has settled in. The staff and his key worker in particular are warm, caring and seem to have a great relationship with our son. He seems to enjoy the food and is always happy when we collect him at the end of the
day. Thank you.

Kids Planet took over our nursery in Spring of 2024. Although it took some time to embed new processes, the nursery is working very well. All rooms and equipment have been updated and the building feels warm and welcoming.
The staff are excellent with the children and I feel my daughter has a bond
with the team. I feel like my daughter is safe and well cared for in nursery and what's more, she enjoys her time there.
Staff encourage the children's development and work with them to ensure they are meeting their development milestones. Staff provide a debrief each day of how my daughter has been and communication with parents is good.
I would recommend the nursery to other parents without hesitation.

My child has been attending this nursery since before Kids Planet took over. The nursery was a great place before Kids Planet took over but has become even better since the takeover. The staff have always been great. Facilities have become even better. My child enjoys coming to nursery and has a close
bond with every nursery team member. The area of the nursery means it's quiet and you feel the added protection of not being on a main road. The window at the front door means the security is high of who is entering the building. I would recommend and always do to friends and family.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.127)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.127) out of 10 for Kids Planet Hazelhurst 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 4.852 for Kids Planet Hazelhurst is calculated as follows: ( (93 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.852

  • 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 4.275 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Hazelhurst 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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.375

  • 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.
