We were super nervous with settling in days and starting nursery - as we have a clingy baby, everyday got easier, the staff here was reassuring and made us feel very comfortable, two particular members of staff were very welcoming and answered all our questions to put us at ease: when visiting the nursery
at the beginning, we instantly got the happy feeling when arriving and we knew we wanted our baby here. I'd 100% recommend Kids Planet to others. We see memories and all information on the parent portal throughout the day which is lovely to see our baby is loving the nursery.

I couldn’t recommend Kiddiwinks Day Nursery enough. It’s been the perfect nurturing and loving environment my little one needed. I’ve seen him grow and develop in such an amazing way as a result of the supportive and loving staff. They are all wonderful with him and I know he’s in safe hands when we
go to work. It’s been perfect for us.

Very friendly staff. Always helpful and accommodating when booking extra hours. My son loves his teachers and is always happy to go to nursery. The parent app is great as it gives an insight into your child's daily activities. I can highly recommend Kiddiwinks.

From visiting the nursery I knew this was a perfect nursery for my daughter. From the minute of walking in and being shown around the staff was so happy and welcoming. My daughter has been going to Kiddiwinks Day Nursery Blackburn since November 2021 and started in the baby room. The staff are so lovely
and welcoming, approachable, always have big smiles and nothing is ever too big of an ask. From the baby room to the toddler room where she attends now the staff have all gone above and beyond for my little girl. She loves attending nursery, always comes home very happy, chatty and always telling me what she’s done throughout the day. My little girl is now in the toddler room and her learning and speech is fantastic. I can not thank the staff enough for being the helping hands of my little girl to grow and learn while I have to work. I can not recommend Kiddiwinks Day Nursery enough. The nursery is a fantastic size, the staff go above and beyond and the manager is so lovely. Thank you all for everything.

We love Kiddiwinks Day Nursery (Blackburn), my eldest went here when she was little, so I already knew this was the nursery for my youngest. The staff are amazing, friendly, helpful and caring. They keep us up to date with everything throughout the day. My little one absolutely loves going to nursery,
she has come on in leaps and bounds.

I'd recommend this nursery to anyone, I'm yet to find a nursery that does everything that Kiddiwinks do with the children in their care. From country days (where children go in in the chosen counties colours and learn all about their culture, food, etc.) to forest school and swimming when they're in
preschool. Never had an issue with any of the staff, they're always willing to help and advise if you ask for advice. Both my children have been to Kiddiwinks, one currently still there and they both love it, they both had/have a great relationship with their key workers. You also get to see what they get up to during the day, what they're eating, sleeping and what nappies they've had on an app that you can download to your phone.


Brilliant nursery 5/5 for me.

My daughter started in the baby room in January and I can't recommend it enough, the staff are very approachable and welcoming for both me and my daughter. I was slightly apprehensive at leaving her but the staff have been brilliant. So far a good experience all round.

My son has been at the nursery for the last six months and always looks happy when I pick him up. The staff are helpful and the indoor and outdoor space is always clean and tidy with plenty for the kids to do. Communication has always been good and I follow their social media page to see what he's getting
up to whilst I'm working. Overall happy with the nursery and staff.

My daughter has been going to Kiddiwinks nursery since she was 10 months old and thoroughly enjoys it. She always has a smile on her face. The facilities are excellent and clean, I have no problems with the staff as they always seem very attentive. She gets to go swimming and forest school. I am sure
will miss the girls when she goes to school. I would highly recommend this nursery.

On first sight, the Nursery is extremely well equipped. You will only be shown the main building where very young children or children 5 years plus are placed. Ask to see the yellow room where your child will be moved to on turning 2 and a half. It's not very nice at all, the 1st time you see this room
will be when you pick your child up early (before 4.30 ish). You will not be shown it unless you ask!


The outside play area is very nice. The toys for the younger children are not in a very clean state, neither are the play mats.


Meal portions are very small and our daughter was always hungry when she came home, the staff initially agreed to give our daughter fruit and yoghurt which we provided for her but later refused as they were too busy!


All in all our experience of this nursery was very poor and we moved our daughter after we found her forced to play alone in the dark while other children slept.

My daughter now the age of 4 has been attending Kiddiwinks Day Nursery (Blackburn) Ltd since she was 9month old. This is a fantastic nursery, staff are excellent and I trust them as a 2nd mother to my child while I earn pennies. My daughter is now reading, writing, drawing, swimming 10 meters and has
become a confident little girl, she has really excelled at Kiddiwinks Day Nursery (Blackburn) Ltd.


The only downfall I had was once they get into the preschool room the communication wasn’t as good but I suppose I had better get used to it as when she goes to school, that will be the same. Forest school is really good, ballet classes and drama are a bonus too. Well done girls

Child was coming home very upset / unsettled. Poor communication with parents.
Child under stimulated.
Had to move child to new nursery - child is already much happier.
Would recommend employing a cook for more nutritious meals.
More money motivated than child focused.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.745)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.745) out of 10 for Kiddiwinks Day Nursery (Blackburn) Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 4 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 5.000 for Kiddiwinks Day Nursery (Blackburn) Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (48 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.745 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddiwinks Day Nursery (Blackburn) Ltd is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.8 = 0.37

  • 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.
