Kids Planet Sale is an exceptional nursery where my son is thriving every day. All staff engage with him, ensuring his wellbeing at all times, whether that be physically or emotionally. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to others, or to send siblings there (should he ever have any!).

Fantastic day nursery with lovely staff.
My son loves day nursery and has come on so much, my son has made so much progress and learned so much for a 4-year-old.
My son calls Kids Planet Sale his safe place. So thank you very much.
He has a good relationship with the staff in pre-school, and he also
has a lovely relationship with his key workers.
He has regular updates on food, activities, behaviours and much more on the app and so much more which is so helpful!
When dropping my son off you sign in and when leaving sign out when attends nursery.
I am absolutely gutted my son will be leaving this year to start reception. However, when I talk to him about this he says he'll go, mummy, if he can take 3 members of staff with him.
I can't thank the Kids Planet Day Nursery staff enough. They have taken care of my boy and also showed so much support to my self as well.

Reply from Steph Carr, Manager at Kids Planet Sale

Thank you for such a detailed review about many aspects of the nursery. We are so sad he will be leaving soon too!

My son loves nursery. Activities are stimulating and geared around personal interests whilst meeting birth to 5 framework. My son's gross motor, fine motor, and communication skills have vastly improved thanks to the attentive and proactive approaches provided by the caring staff. The nursery is lively
with lots of outdoor learning too. Resources are good.

My daughter attended Kids Planet Sale, and the care she received was amazing! Staff were very friendly and brought my daughter out of her shell and pushed her development. I was always kept up to date with meals and activities and any events that were going to be celebrated. Management were very approachable
if I had any questions. Overall we both had amazing experiences and my daughter continues to speak about the staff and her time within the nursery!

Fantastic nursery. Really cares for my little one and helped us all settle in when she started nursery. Going from looking after her all day every day to letting the nursery do this several times a week was made much easier with the settling-in sessions, the kindness of the staff, and their calming
welcoming nature. Thank you Kids Planet Sale!

My son has been attending here since he was 12 months old and he is our second child to attend. We love the nursery. The children have access to a wide variety of learning and play. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and know my child well. My child is happy here and he is thriving in all aspects
of his development. The food choices are varied and healthy and the children access outside spaces at regular intervals throughout the day. The management team are approachable and it is simple to contact them.

We have had children at Kids Planet for 6 (!) years now with baby number 3 starting in September 2024. We wouldn't consider going anywhere else. The nursery is so well run by the management team and we have never had any cause for concern. The staff who care for our children are wonderful - they are
kind, caring, and full of brilliant ideas for activities. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone.

I feel so much at ease and comfortable every morning I drop my son off at nursery. His development has come on hugely thanks to the staff at Kids Planet Sale. From being nervous with messy play and physical development to now loving painting and climbing everywhere! Having only been at the nursery for
5 months and making these progresses, I cannot wait to see what the next few years bring for him.

I currently have 2 children here. Both children have been there since they turned 1, my eldest is in preschool and is leaving to start school in September, my youngest has just moved to the toddler room.
My eldest has thrived whilst there and loved her time at nursery. I particularly think they have
done a fantastic job in getting the preschoolers school ready.
My youngest has a lovely time and is very well looked after. He gets very emotional at drop off and the staff have always been so good with him and reassure us that he isn't upset for long. From the photos and updates, we know he has a great time.
Thanks to everyone for all you do.

Lovely nursery! Really impressed by the carer's attention to the children and how loved they are by them. The carers are also very approachable with all and any queries by parents. They also are consistent with updating their platform so that one can have an insight into their child's day.

We've been very happy since our child transferred to this nursery. He settled quickly thanks to the skill of the staff in the room. There's always a warm and friendly welcome. There is a wide range of toys and activities available in the room and access to an outdoor space.
The staff have taken the
time to get to know my child's individual needs and have been able to adapt their interactions to suit him.
He enjoys the food and has adjusted to the sleep routines. He is happy to see the staff when he is dropped off and they seem pleased to see him!

This is the last month in the nursery, for my daughter.
We are really happy about our experience.
She's always so happy to go to Kids Planet.
We are Italian speakers so they helped my daughter to learn English.
She never spoke it before and she used to hear just Italian from us, so they have done
a great job supporting her with this new language.
She now understands and speaks English and I can see a lot of improvement in a lot of things. She is a lot more independent and now she loves to play on her own.
The management is amazing, the chef is brilliant and all the staff do such a great job. It's probably one of the most difficult jobs ever but they always smile and they are always so patient.
I absolutely recommend it to everyone.
Thank you Kids Planet for the best first school experience ever.

Wonderful staff. Always professional and welcoming. The staff really care about my little girl and they know her likes, dislikes and unique character traits, which they plan for and support accordingly. The environment is clean, stimulating and reflective of the children’s age and interests, with lots
of natural, sustainable resources to support curiosity and play. We love Kids Planet Sale and it’s been wonderful for both our girls!

I started my daughter here back in September 2022. It was a late minute switch from the childminder's she was at due to needing longer hours and since changing her the nursery has been amazing! The staff couldn't be nicer more understanding and reliable. My daughter has come on so much and they have
helped me in so many ways I cannot complain. She never has a quiet day and is always so busy. I am kept up to date with all information needed from them. Highly Recommend to anyone.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.944)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.944) out of 10 for Kids Planet Sale 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 4.944 for Kids Planet Sale is calculated as follows: ( (204 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.944

  • 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 Sale 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 83 number of registered child places is 16.6, 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.
