Welcome to Kids Planet Poulton! The team are proud to share that they received their second Ofsted Outstanding in recognition of their Outstanding practice in ALL areas (October 2019, previous January 2016). A new framework was launched in September 2019 and as one of the first nurseries to be inspected under this more rigorous framework, this is an amazing achievement. Ofsted found the staff team’s teaching to be inspirational. The team have exceptionally high expectations for children and model exemplary behaviour and manners to each other and the children. They couldn’t be more delighted that Ofsted couldn’t praise the children highly enough. The children in their care are respectful, kind, inclusive and confident, as well as curious and play remarkably well together.

I can not rave about this nursery enough, the staff and setting are perfect for children. I would recommend this nursery to anyone. They go above and beyond to make your child happy and have fun learning in different ways. Thank you Poulton team for always being amazing!

My daughter has only been at nursery for 6 weeks, starting just after she turned 7 months old. I was initially really worried about her immediately starting on 4 full days per week, especially with being a young baby, but the care she receives is exceptional, and already, I have huge trust levels in
all the staff. My daughter is already advancing after such a short space of time, and she gets really excited every morning when she realises she is in the car park about to go in! I love the app for updates on how shes doing throughout the day, and how you can tell the staff genuinely care about all the babies they look after. I'd recommend this nursery to all my friends

I was so apprehensive about sending my child to nursery but they have come on leaps and bounds since attending Kids Planet in Poulton. I am so thankful to all the hardworking and lovely staff at the nursery. I would definitely recommend.

The most amazing nursery and staff who treat the children like their own. My twins have been coming since they were 9 months and nursery days are their favourite days of the week, they never want to come home.
Always updated with what they're doing/eating throughout the day via the app.
I couldn't
recommend this nursery enough.

An amazing high standard of care and commitment to both parents and children. My son absolutely loves his time at nursery, he is happy, stimulated and most importantly well cared for. He engages in new activities daily which promote learning, resilience and independence. The staff support all of these
opportunities by their consistent approach to nurture and know all of the children and their families.

Fantastic nursery with genuine, amazing staff. Our little boy is now 3 years old and has been attending here from 6 months old and we couldn't have asked for a better place. He always comes home after learning new things, has been encouraged out of his shell and has built friendships along the way.

Both my girls go to Kids Planet Poulton, one in the baby room and the other in preschool. I can honestly say I have been so impressed with all the staff in both rooms. They are always happy to chat at the end of the day when picking up my children and go into detail on what they have been doing for
the day. This provides me with an enormous amount of comfort and genuinely feel that they take the time to know the children. My youngest has only been attending for 4 weeks in the baby room and I already feel like they know her well. What she likes, what she dislikes, how to deal with her little tantrums. My eldest has been attending the nursery for almost 2 years now and has grown so much in confidence. This is all thanks to the wonderful staff at Kids Planet Poulton. Thank you!

Every week I can go to work knowing my son is in safe hands and he has such a great time. To see how much he has grown from when he first started is incredible! Every member of the staff there are absolutely great and always puts my son and me at ease. Could not recommend more!

My daughter is now 3 and a half and has been at Kids Planet Paulton (formerly Poppy & Jack's) since she was 15 months old. She absolutely loves nursery, she loves the staff and, although she can be shy, has really come out of her shell and made many friends. When she was younger she would be upset when
I left her, but the staff always reassured me she was absolutely fine after no time at all. Now she happily goes in to see her friends and all the staff. Her learning has come on leaps and bounds since moving into pre-school. My younger daughter will be starting soon and although she is very attached to me, I know she is in very capable and loving hands.

My boy has been going to Kids Planet since he was 6 months, he is now 2 and a half, and I can proudly say that the staff that work there are incredibly helpful!
He cries going in every morning, the staff always reassures me that after 5 minutes of being there, he is happy - this is also seen in photographs
they upload on the app.

Our daughter loves attending this nursery. They seem to do something different every day and spent lots of time outside which was important to us. I was really worried about her starting as she was very nervous around new people, but since starting her confidence has grown so much. The staff all make
so much effort and you can tell they really love what they do. The manager is always so helpful and welcoming. They have also been very accommodating of our dietary needs. I honestly couldn't praise them higher.

My 8-month-old has been going to nursery now for 4 months and he absolutely loves it, the staff are incredible and have made him feel completely at home. We can't say enough about the baby room, the girls in there are amazing and we are always updated via the app and at drop-off and pick-ups. He eats
a variety of great food and this has made our weaning experience all the easier.
As this is our first baby we were nervous about putting him into nursery but the whole experience has been so wonderful and that's a testament to the great staff and facilities at Kids Planet Poulton, thank you so much!

My son has been at this nursery since he was 9 months old. He is now about to start school and this nursery has got him ready to move up even though he is young for his year. All the staff are lovely, caring and keep us so well informed. My son has been so happy here, the other children and families
are lovely. They have great food and do loads of activities, both fun and educational. We are sad to leave!

Fantastic team of staff who provide the best Carr for my son. I've had a few nurseries over the years having had 4 children, and this is simply one of the best. Every staff member is so caring and conscientious, I can see the great bond they have with my son. My only wish is for the children to have
more outdoor space.

We are so happy that we chose this nursery for our daughter. All the staff in the baby room are so caring and enthusiastic, which makes us feel like our daughter is in excellent hands. It puts our minds at rest to know she is being well looked after. We love getting updates and photos of what our daughter
is getting up to via the app, it really brightens our day. It is also nice to know that she is getting to try a a variety of different foods there too. The meals always sound lovely! She always seems so content and ‘at home’ when we pick her up too so it is clear to see that she really does love it there. Thank you Kids Planet Poulton!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.940)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.940) out of 10 for Kids Planet Poulton 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.940 for Kids Planet Poulton is calculated as follows: ( (206 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 215 Ratings = 4.94

  • 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 is based on 18 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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2, which has been reached with 18 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.

Ellena Tattersall

Job Title: Nursery Manager

I have worked in childcare since May 2016 and have been at the nursery for 8 and a half years, starting as an apprentice and gaining experience with all age groups. When I was younger, I grew up dancing and taking part in pantomimes, where I also enjoyed helping to teach, especially the little ones.
I hold a Diploma in Dance, a Diploma in Health and Social Care, and a Level 3 qualification in Childcare. I am also fully Paediatric First Aid qualified and a certified Designated Safeguarding Lead.
Working with children and babies has always been my passion. I love being part of their journey as they learn, grow, and experience exciting ‘firsts.’ Building strong relationships with children and their families is incredibly special to me, and I find it truly rewarding to support and nurture them every step of the way.
