All staff have been very supportive of our child and also our family, supporting both our child and us parents during a difficult time. Our child loves attending nursery and we love seeing regular updates through the day.

Since my son started in September 2023, I feel he has developed so well, the staff at the nursery are all supportive, lovely, and very approachable and friendly. They treat each child individually, and you can see that the staff really care about the children they are looking after. I feel my son's
communication skills have improved due to the support from the nursery, and he is also more sociable due to the support from the staff at the nursery. I would highly recommend this nursery, especially with children on the ASD pathway.

I have two children aged 3 and 1 at Kids Planet. The space is great with lots of outdoor space. The staff are very caring and professional. Very impressed with the care the nursery provides and the support they offer in terms of potty training and good nutrition.

Really great nursery, my daughter is looked after so well by the staff at Kids Planet Greenbank. They have also been great at easing any anxieties I had about sending my daughter there and going back to work full time. Any issues that have arisen have been dealt with professionally and I have been fully
informed throughout. My daughter is so happy at this nursery.

My eldest child attended full time since 11 months old until school age entry. We all had a very positive experience. Same with my second child who is now in pre-school. I would not have taken them anywhere else.

Our daughter has settled in so well to her new nursery. She is happy and excited to go each day and has already developed a number of new skills in the short time that she has been there. The activities that she does are varied and certainly mean that she is tired at the end of the day.

It will be a great shame that our daughter leave at the end of this month. We have been a part of this nursery since my eldest was a baby I will miss it dearly. My daughter so happy to go in every day and loves her teachers and friends.

Everyone has been welcoming and friendly, the facilities are excellent and my daughter is settling in well thanks to all the staff. The variety in diet has been a welcome introduction, along with the increase in activities for her.

To be honest I would send my child elsewhere if there was availability in the area but this is the only one with any and I think this speaks volumes. Generally, the nursery is always very smelly, when I drop her off it is someone different greeting almost her every time and many staff lack the skills
needed to care for children in my opinion. I have had other children here since 2022 and nothing has changed in that time. It always seems there is a change of staff/turnover and new faces every other week. My daughter spent a year there and never settled and now my second child gets very anxious about going and often comes home very smelly (poo) and once came home in someone else's shoes. There are a few staff members who are great but I find management very unapproachable and they rarely say hello when you go into the setting.

I don't think we could have chosen a better nursery for our child. Our baby loves the staff, he has activities every day which help his development and since day one all staff including management team were very helpful, empathetic and caring. We could not be happier.

My son has loved his time at this nursery. All the staff have been unbelievable. So kind and caring and go the extra mile. In pre-school my son has learnt so much and has had a dedicated sports teacher in which he has regular PE sessions with. He has made so many friends and it's a really friendly atmosphere
across the setting. They have many visiting practitioners and experiences for the children including visits from the police and ambulance service, to walks in the park and doing things for charity. They eat a range of different, healthy foods and the outdoor space has been renovated providing plenty of space and outdoor fun. The nursery is clean, warm and inviting. I couldn't be happier with our time at Kids Planet Greenbank.

Both my children settled really easily into the nursery, and enjoy spending time there. The staff are always very approachable, and well informed about the children. They also seem to know all of the children in all of the rooms. There are plenty of activities for the children, including a lot of time
outdoors. I particularly like the educational activities in the pre-school room. There are also lots of events for the parents/whole family to participate in e.g. stay and play, Christmas fayre, etc. Emails are responded to very quickly, and the staff have been very engaged and supportive of our son's allergies. I'm very pleased with our choice

My youngest son is 3 and currently attends Greenbank Kids Planet, as did my now 8-year-old. Both boys enjoyed it every day. The staff are great. The food is very good, the environment is fab, and the huge garden is great. The staff always do lots of fun activities. I would certainly recommend this nursery
to others.

My daughter has attended this nursery for nearly three years now, she has been in the baby room, tots and toddlers and is now in pre-school. Every room has been fantastic, with lovely caring, helpful and friendly staff. They are always doing activities including PE, art, phonics and different themed
topics, and my daughter is thriving here. The nursery has an on-site chef, and the children always have varied meals and try lots of new healthy foods. The nursery has always felt very safe, and my daughter, who is shy, is growing in confidence every day due to the encouragement of her teachers. I couldn't recommend this nursery and the staff any more for giving my daughter a great start in life.

My son started the baby room in October and has settled in brilliantly. He attended the nursery every Friday for their messy play sessions leading up to his settle sessions which allowed him to get used to the room and the staff and ease the transition into nursery. I think these sessions have been
amazing and would recommend attending if you have a baby due to start.
The staff have all been really welcoming and make a fuss of my baby when he goes in of a morning which helps as I can leave him with a smile.
Love how much he has developed in such a short space of time and would highly recommend this nursery.

My son has been here since he was 8 months, he is now 15 months. He started in the baby's room and is now in tots. Both rooms have been great. The staff are lovely, such a great bunch of girls. He is always delighted and excited to go in the mornings. The staff always send lovely pictures of the activities
they do throughout the day and keep me updated on nappies, meals and sleep. They take the kids on walks and keep them active in the garden. I really have no complaints and would definitely recommend it.

I can not praise Greenbank enough. My daughter has been there for a year and a half and during that time I have seen the changes that the management and staff have implemented. The nursery has always been good but it has gone from strength to strength. The staff are amazing and really create a family
environment. My daughter loves her days there and when I ask her which friends she played with she always says the names of the staff first. It’s engaging, fun, safe and secure. Activities vary from class to class but my toddler enjoys book of the week which always has exciting play scenarios based around it, music classes, sign language lessons, sensory play, loads of art and time in the garden. Her development has been fantastic and Greenbank has supported with all stages - potty training, speech and social skills such as sharing, playing and supporting her friends if one of them is upset.

This nursery is fantastic. My son has developed so much since starting here in July. He enjoys going in every week. The food they serve is brilliant, they keep the parent's app up to date and they really engage with the children. I’ve not had any issues since he started.

A lovely nursery which pays attention to detail. Any problem my son has, they address it straight away. Any worries I have, they always make sure I receive help I need. My son loves coming in and would stay there overnight if he could!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.750)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.750) out of 10 for Kids Planet Greenbank Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 55 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 54 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 4.750 for Kids Planet Greenbank Park is calculated as follows: ( (523 Excellents x 5) + (112 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 657 Ratings = 4.75

  • 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 Greenbank Park is based on 54 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 141 number of registered child places is 28.2, which has been reached with 54 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.
