The team at Carr Head are so lovely and friendly! The kids are always busy with new activities and they build such good relationships with their carers and peers. My son has come on leaps and bounds since going to nursery!

We couldn't be any happier with Kids Planet Poulton Carr Head and all its staff! Our little boy started last October at just 10 months old and he settled in very, quickly thanks to the care, attention and warmth of the staff in the baby room. He enjoys the activities, trips to the local area, meal times
and the outdoor area. We're so glad we picked this nursery!

Very happy with Kids Planet Poulton Carr Head Nursery. My son loves going to the nursery, he learned a lot of new things there. The staff are very nice and they helped him with his speaking skills. I can see his evolution since going to the nursery, he’s more friendly with other kids and he got attached
to the practitioners who are so nice and helpful. I could say only good things about it. Very satisfied.

Our little girl transferred to this setting last August and we are so pleased she did. The facilities are amazing and the children have lots of opportunities for time outside and more importantly, the staff are wonderful with her. She is always happy to go in the morning and we get regular updates on
the app throughout the day with all the exciting things she gets up to.

My daughter absolutely loves coming to nursery and as parents we couldn’t be happier with the staff and the nursery setting overall. The staff are honestly amazing. Each keyworker my child has had thus far has made a truly special bond and you just can’t ask for more than that. Staff who care, nurture
and value the children’s each and every need, as a group and as individuals. The varied food and meals that they get which differ daily/weekly. The daily activities and experiences that the children are exposed to are all amazing. From day trips and visits to football academies and weekly French lessons. All of which the children love. The setting itself is run to a high standard, kept very clean, has great facilities and the forest garden is used in all weathers.

Cannot talk highly enough of this nursery. My little boy has been going there since June 2021 and has loved every second. Staff have always been brilliant, both with our son and with us as parents, keeping us fully informed at all times. Our son loves that he gets to spend time outdoors most days! He
has lots of trips out to the local shops and library, which is such a nice treat for him too.

Excellent Nursery!
Both my girls attend and they are very settled, happy and thriving. The staff are amazing they get to know all the children individually and provide the best possible care. They provide daily updates on what the children have been doing, eating, sleeping etc and regular in-depth
progress reports. I couldn't imagine sending my girls anywhere else. Highly recommend.

Since the first initial visit to the nursery, we have had nothing but positive praise.
From the settling-in session to his first week, the communication has been excellent. The environment is so warming and comforting knowing my son is very well looked after. The app is always updated. The staff from
management to key workers are always polite, warming, knowledgeable and supportive.
I couldn't ask for a better nursery.

My daughter has been coming here for over a year now and I couldn't be happier with everything. The staff are all lovely and the reception staff are very helpful.
She eats more food at nursery than at home and they always prove great meals.
They regularly send photos and updates on the app which
keeps your mind at ease. They are regularly out in the garden playing and exploring which my daughter loves. In nicer weather, they go on little trips to the park or local farm.
My daughter loves it here and makes great connections with the staff and other children.

My daughter has been attending five days a week since August and absolutely loves it. Her days have so much variety, and she’s frequently going on trips out into the community. The ladies working in the room always give such a detailed handover, along with updating throughout the day of photos of her
day. We couldn’t be happier with the love and care she receives each day.

Absolutely outstanding nursery! Staff always happy to greet me and my child with a smile, always on hand with great advice and support through all aspects of parenting. My son has moved to the preschool room recently and he was a little reluctant. With the support, care, and patience of the staff this
transition went fairly easily. They are always happy to help and give the best “huggles” as my son calls them and he always comes home with a big smile telling me he had so much fun today!
Thank you all staff.

My son has been attending nursery for 18 months and choosing this one was the best decision we have made. All the staff took the time and care to help settle him in when he started and every morning he is excited to go and play. He recently moved rooms and again the staff were great in helping him transition
to the new room. Every time I pick him up he says he’s had a great day and has the biggest smile on his face.

Reply from Maxine Wild-Binns, Nursery Administrator at Kids Planet Poulton Carr Head

Thank you for your review and kind words. We are happy your little one is enjoying his time in our nursery and has transitioned into his new room well.
We look forward to watching him grow and learn with us each day.

Our son started here in November 2022 when he was 1 year old. Since starting he has absolutely thrived. His speech has improved massively and the nursery do regular reviews on his development and adjusts his learning experiences accordingly. He absolutely loves going in and every member of staff is
friendly, caring and knowledgable. Would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for a nursery!

My child has just graduated in/from preschool from this nursery. I would like to say a huge thank you to all of the staff at Kids Planet Carr Head for their kindness and patience in nurturing our child whilst he has been in their care. Thank you for encouraging and expanding my child’s inquisitive,
adventurous nature and for going along with his creative imaginative play ideas. Our child would not be the same without the input of Kids Planet Carr Head and we wouldn’t wish him any different!

Poulton Carr Head is an amazing nursery, where my daughter loves to go and gets excited every morning when we get there. All of the staff are absolutely fantastic, from the friendly ladies at the front desk, to the lovely and caring ladies that take care of all the babies and children. I couldn't imagine
sending my daughter anywhere else. She has learnt so much and always comes home happy after a day of fun and learning.

My 4-year-old has loved her time at nursery. She has made a lot of lovely friends there and comes home very happy. The staff are warm and welcoming and nothing seems too much trouble. Though it has changed names/hands a couple of times during our time there, it has not been unsettling for our daughter
at all. We will miss everyone when she leaves in a couple of weeks!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.937)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.937) out of 10 for Kids Planet Poulton Carr Head 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 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.937 for Kids Planet Poulton Carr Head is calculated as follows: ( (372 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 395 Ratings = 4.937

  • 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 Poulton Carr Head is based on 33 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 85 number of registered child places is 17, which has been reached with 33 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.
