Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.646)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.646) out of 10 for Kids Planet Anchorsholme 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 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 4.974 for Kids Planet Anchorsholme is calculated as follows: ( (187 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.974

  • 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 4.672 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Anchorsholme 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 119 number of registered child places is 23.8. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.8 = 0.672

  • 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.

Janet Waldermar

Job Title: Manager

Joined: 2012

Hello, my name is Janet, and I am the setting Manager at Kids Planet Anchorsholme.


I have worked in childcare for 17 years 12 years of which have been continuous employment with the company working my way up from Practitioner to Manager in March 2023. I hold my level 3 in childcare and development. I am fully paediatric first aid qualified and hold a certificate as a designated safeguarding lead.


I always knew my passion was with children and something I was eager to learn all about and how to help them develop so began my career in childcare. I have worked with all age ranges and love spending my time in the rooms getting to know all the children.


In my spare time outside of my manager role I enjoy long walks in the lakes with my dogs, and spending quality time with my three children and family.
