My son attends for fifteen hours and staff at the nursery we’re fantastic with helping him to settle in. The staff are cautious with my sons allergies and make sure to communicate with me regarding what he has eaten and drank each day. The online app makes sure I can see when he has nappy changes and
any updates. I am extremely happy and confident with my son attending this nursery and he loves it. Thank you.

My son absolutely loves going to this nursery and has settled in fantastically. They communicate well each day and he seems to have lots of fun whilst he is there. We decided to pay extra for the nursery to provide meals and snacks in the hope he will explore more foods and so far this has been the
case so I am pleased. So far nursery has been fantastic for both his development and social development, since Covid-19 he hasn't had much social interaction with children his own age. Overall, very pleased with Kinder Haven Ltd @ Waterloo Road.

Kinder Haven in Pudsey has been absolutely phenomenal for our son. He has come on leaps and bounds. He is always happy to attend, eats well and comes home smiling. The girls are all absolutely fantastic. We couldn't have wished for a better nursery experience

Amazing nursery, my daughter has attended 2 kinder Haven nurseries since she was 8 months old, she’s now 3, and I’ve never had one bad word to say about the nursery or staff. All staff members are amazing with my daughter, she has learnt so much from nursery. Always give the children healthy meals and
exercise outdoor time. They keep me updated through the day with her meals and toilet trips they even provide photos through the day to see how my daughters doing. The staff and nursery is amazing and I would recommend to anyone! Definitely 5 stars.

My little boy has attended Kinder Haven Ltd @ Waterloo Road since September. He absolutely adores going to nursery and he is very happy there. The staff are well trained, welcoming and friendly. It is great to see what he has been up to every day on the app and the staff update observations, including
meals daily. He has made great progress since attending and I know that he is in safe hands every day. Thank you Kinder Haven Ltd @ Waterloo Road!

Staff are always friendly, caring and informative about what my son has done during the day. During the pandemic I kept him at home, however every picture or video I sent was uploaded, graded and documented so I can still see his progress and what he needs to work on next. His confidence has come on
and he is always happy to go nursery.

Great nursery for my 5-month-old. The range of different meals is fantastic for my baby. I love the app as I can see pictures of him having fun at nursery doing the different activities. I can’t wait to see him progress.

Couldn’t thank the girls in the baby room enough for helping my baby settle in as I was so nervous about him starting. Management is really approachable. I love how you can see pictures of them of what they have been doing.

My son loves Kinder Haven. All the staff are so friendly and caring. The place is always clean even when the children have been playing they manage to keep it clean. I visited a lot of nurseries before and I quickly saw the difference from messy to dirty. Kinder Haven is so clean. We are really happy
with the care our son is getting and I will strongly recommend it.

My daughter has thrived since starting at Kinder Haven aged two and is now more than prepared for starting school in September. She loves going and has made lots of friends. My 2-year-old twins have also become much more independent since starting. Staff are always very friendly and all three children
are happy with whichever member of staff they are working with.

An outstanding nursery who have looked after our son very well, with very good security and a nourishing daily menu. The parental app is fantastic at keeping parents informed with regular updates about their child throughout the day which is very reassuring and useful.
The staff are superb and very
caring and dedicated - can't praise them highly enough.
The daily activities (in line with the early years foundation) are engaging and fun and this shows, as our son is developing into a bright little two-year-old.

I cannot compliment my daughters nursery enough. The staff are beyond efficient, supportive and loving of my daughter who attends nursery twice a week. The main carers for my daughter are a true pleasure to deal with. Thank you for all that you do and for creating an environment my daughter loves coming
to.

Our daughter has attended the nursery for the past year (she is coming up to 2 years old). She is very happy there and we have absolute confidence that she is safe, well looked after, stimulated and that the girls that work there genuinely care for her. Communication is very strong, and the children
engage in a full range of fun and educational activities. The food and facilities are of a high standard.

My son started at Kinderhaven in January, I think it’s a lovely nursery and the staff are all so wonderful and helpful. It’s a delightful environment for the children and I couldn’t ask for much more, I think they tick all the boxes.

Both my children attend this nursery and they absolutely love it, as do we. The staff are great with genuine interest/care in the children. Regular updates via the app on daily activities. The menu is great and varied. Clean rooms with great resources. I have been very impressed with my oldest daughter
who has really progressed with her counting and letters/alphabet through the focused activities at the nursery. I can't fault it at all.

This is a fantastic nursery. From a parents perspective; the staff are always so friendly and approachable and literally go out of their way to help in any way they can. The updates on the app are very detailed and make me feel secure that my daughter is not just being looked after well but educated
well too. From a child’s perspective; the nursery as well as having all sorts in their individual rooms, is equipped with an excellent soft play, sensory room and outdoor play area. From what I’ve seen, the staff have an amazing relationship with the children so cannot fail to settle in and thrive. My daughter loves it and I often see her giving hugs to the staff- she obviously feels safe and cared for. You can clearly see she has had a fun and productive day when I pick her up as she’s happily saying bye to everyone. I highly recommend this nursery.

My daughter really loves going into this nursery. From the very beginning, staff were always helpful, accommodating, knowledgable and caring, which helped us transition from stage to stage. We use the parents' app every day to check on what is being taught to our daughter and really enjoy this service.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.861) out of 10 for Kids Planet Pudsey 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 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.861 for Kids Planet Pudsey is calculated as follows: ( (350 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 395 Ratings = 4.861

  • 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 Pudsey is based on 33 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 74 number of registered child places is 14.8, which has been reached with 33 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.
