The staff are so caring and really help to settle my daughter, they make her feel special and I see them do it with all the children. My daughter loves the trips out to the park and to local shops.

Overall I am really happy with the nursery, my daughter has been there just 1 day a week for a couple of months now and is settling in really well. The staff are friendly and my daughter has bonded well with them.

One of the reasons we choose this nursery was the wide array of facilities that it provides. The carers are very friendly and approachable and let us know what our daughter has been up to in the day. They are great for updating the app on food that was eaten (a good variety of meals provided too) and
nappy changes but would like to see more photographs of our daughter doing the activities. Another plus is that all resources are provided for - milk, food, nappies creams etc we just need to leave a bag of extra clothes, which is fantastic to help us keep organised.

Overall, I am happy with the care here. The staff are great and my son is happy. On occasion, he has been left in a soiled nappy and is often very dirty or wet when we collect him, despite changes of clothes available in his bag.

My 14-month-old has been at Greenbank Kids Planet since he was 9 months and his confidence has improved so much. He loves going and always looks happy and busy in the photos uploaded to the app. They try and get out to the local park as much as possible and do lots of activities aimed at improving their
skills and knowledge of the world. I have no worries dropping him off there and would recommend to other parents.

So happy with the nursery, the staff are all so lovely and genuinely care about the children. The building is clean and you are kept very well informed about how your child is daily and generally on their progress. Great facilities for the children with play areas, sensory rooms, messy play areas! Really
pleased!

Kids Planet is really organised, and well run. The staff are friendly, knowledgable and very helpful.
The app they use is really good so you can see what your child has eaten/slept/nappy changes as the day goes on. They also put photos on.
The menu is excellent, my child is vegetarian and they use
Quorn alternative for him. They always feed them fresh healthy food and encourage him to drink water.
I also love how they spend a lot of time outside in the garden playing in the sand and they even take them across the road to the park.
I have recommended this nursery to lots of my friends.

We had a terrible time in my son's past nursery we were so nervous to leave him in another setting, coming to Kids Planet Greenbank has been the best choice we made for our son. He’s come on so much the last few months since starting, the staff in his room have been nothing but amazing, overall we are
so happy and hope that he continues to learn and grow.

Kids Planet Greenbank is an exceptional childcare option for parents. The recent inclusion of nappies and milk/formula in their policy shows their commitment to supporting families. The staff's assistance with common parenting challenges is invaluable. The caring environment, remarkable progress, enhanced
security, and vibrant atmosphere make it a top choice for nurturing early education. Both my children have flourished and absolutely love going.

My daughter settled into the baby room really quickly which I can only put down to the care and attention of the staff working there. They are really professional and seem to genuinely care for the children they look after.
I'm really happy with the amount of activities they take part in during their
day and in terms of food I'm pretty certain my daughter is eating better than I am.

Our little girl has been at the nursery since August 2021 and she’s loved every minute.
The staff are amazing. So warm and welcoming, everyone is so lovely. The amount of learning packs and take home bags around the nursery are great they seem to be very clued up on children’s learning and development
it’s great! Not to mention their amazing food! Can’t fault the place and highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery

Since starting this nursey my son has settled in really well, He loves going have made great relationships with staff and children. The food variety is good and always another option if the child decides not to eat. The children are always outside playing where they can. They have supported my child
throughout his journey and he always comes home happy. Would highly recommend, at this moment I can not fault them

We had a very bad first day and I wasn't impressed. However, other local mums encouraged me to go back as they insisted the team are fantastic and I'm so glad I did.
What makes this nursery is the staff in the rooms. My little girl loves coming here and the team looking after her are incredible. She
has developed so much since she started nearly a year ago and has built amazing relationships with her key worker and rooms assistants. You can tell the team genuinely love the children here. Ap could be a lot better and updates more frequent, management will never smile/acknowledge or say good morning as you walk in but what matters is if your child is happy and being well looked after. Food is great, strong routine, activities are fun and varied and there's always lots of love and cuddles. If a certain five practitioners are in your child's class you have nothing to worry about and your child will be very well looked after.

My son has settled in well at nursery and really enjoys his time there. He has a lovely time playing with his little friends. The team in the baby room are fantastic and very attentive to his needs.
He has developed massively since starting in May, and we look forward to seeing him reach further milestones
as he continues his education at Kids Planet.

All of the staff are extremely friendly and approachable. When I have raised issues with my daughter they have supported her medical needs and she is absolutely thriving.
We cannot believe how much she has developed over the time that she has been at the nursery. She loves nursery and often asks to
go at weekends.
I also cannot thank the staff enough for their support and kindness in helping me to bring her to nursery despite my disability; especially through the pandemic as we are both key workers. It is the little things that they do without even thinking that really mean the most. Thank you, you are all stars to me and my family.

My daughter has attended Greenbank Nursery since February 2021. Everyone is welcoming and if you have any queries you can send them by email and you will always get a response.
The downside is the parent app. I have come across other apps that seem far better than this one. The layout isn't the greatest,
updates are always late and occasionally I never even get anything. Moments, observations and assessments can be hit and miss too which is unfortunate. I also know of parents having parent's evenings/updates on their progress, I have never experienced or received this since she started. I know of others in Kids Planet nurseries and they all seem to operate differently in terms of this? However, my daughter does enjoy going. She does come home a lot after having multiple changes of clothes, wet shoes or food everywhere just in a morning. I have supplied full wetsuits, wellies etc but this remains a mystery a lot of the time. I do recommend the nursery as the children do like it.

Both my children have attended since around 10 months old and we have been very happy with the nursery and wouldn't hesitate to recommend. The outdoor space is excellent and they do lots of activities such as messy play, arts and crafts. The food menu offered is very varied and both have eaten things
at nursery which we cannot get them to eat at home. Staff are great and have built good relationships with the children and are happy to try different routines to help with sleep, feeding etc. They haven't gone out of the nursery as much since Covid, hopefully this will resume soon so they can get back to making trips to the local park and shops. We have recently started going back into the nursery for pick up/drop off and the children are always very happy and engaged in activities when you go into the room.
We have an app to view their daily activities which is great, the only small feedback I'd have is it would be good to see more regular updates.

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.
