The nursery received an Outstanding status from Ofsted in January 2016.

Kids Planet Higher Broughton nursery opened in 2014 and provides care for babies through to pre-school age. The nursery is conveniently situated on the corner of Park Lane and Bury New Road in Higher Broughton, Salford and has large open plan rooms with direct access to secure outdoor play areas for each age group. The nursery also features a separate roof terrace playground for pre-school children.

Meals and snacks are freshly prepared and the nursery has two separate kitchens, one of which is a kosher kitchen with a separate kosher chef.

The nursery follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the children enjoy a self-generated programme, enhanced by the staff as they work to meet their own individual developmental goals. The nursery is well resourced and developed ensuring that all the areas of development relating to the EYFS are incorporated throughout.

The nursery is absolutely amazing. The staff is really nice and caring. My child has been attending this nursery for nearly 2 years and I have never had any issues or reasons to complain. My child always looks forward to coming to nursery and she loves spending her time there. Huge thank you to all
staff members!

I wanted to take a moment to share how impressed myself and my partner are with the exceptional care provided each day. The staff working with my child are always suggesting and implementing new strategies to support my child with any challenges they face. One room leader in particular, is extremely
passionate for the children in her care. The activities planned are fun and engaging and my child loves their time there. We believe it is the best nursery in the area and we feel incredibly fortunate to have our child surrounded by such caring professionals.

Brillaint nursery with amazing staff that really care about the children, my daughter has a hard time transitioning and they were really patient and caring. She now loves going and has really come on with her development which I think is definatly down to the activities and attention the staff put into
each day. The food servered is healthy and lots of variety so the children get to try abit of everything really happy with the nursery and feel at ease leaving my daughter there.

Both of my children have had a wonderful experience at Kids Planet. All the staff ranging from the baby room to preschool go above and beyond to ensure the wellbeing of the children is paramount. The learning journey provides excellent opportunities for children to explore and immerse themselves fully.
I have always felt extremely confident that my children are receiving the best care in a safe and positive environment. I would wholeheartedly recommend Kids Planet to anyone! Thank you.

My daughter's nursery has been incredibly helpful and attentive in looking after her. Their care and support have been invaluable in providing a nurturing environment for her growth and development. I can include these positive aspects in the review to highlight their dedication to your daughter's well-being.
Especially the Kids Planet Higher Broughton manager is very kind and always there to support and I have a feeling you can approach her easily. Thank you Manager for making us welcome like nursery is my daughter's second home.

Since my son joined the nursery, the staff have been very supportive and although I was a nervous parent the staff sent me pictures through the app which made the process so much easier! I'd like to thank everyone in the toddler room, it's lovely my son is now excited for his nursery days.

This is our fourth child, but first time in Kids Planet. We both agree that we've had the most experience over the last 6 months. Our daughter has come on a lot through all the different activities the staff have put on for her. She enters the nursery every morning with a huge smile on her face, she's
so willing to go into their arms.

This is such a fantastic nursery!
My son has benefited greatly thanks to the superb staff in the baby and toddler room. With such great activities and a great food menu. He certainly enjoys his days spent there. A special mention must go to the manager. She is so passionate about her role and the nursery,
nothing is too much trouble and she is so engaging. I really enjoy our chats about my son! From what I can see the manager is a credit to the company.

My son has been at Kids Planet and has been in all four rooms. He is always happy at collection and goes in with ease at drop off. The staff are great and friendly. Knowing most of the staff the ones from previous rooms still interact and are happy to see both myself and my son. He talks about the staff
at home and always asks to go in on his days off. The manager has been brilliant at keeping us up to date with all the changes throughout the challenging year with emails, notices and signs, I know she is doing everything she can to keep everyone safe, the staff have been brilliant and adapted well to keep children as happy and having an as 'normal' time as they can.

My grandson has attended this nursery since he was 8 months old. I cannot express how incredible the nursery is, the manager is kind, caring and very informative. She has also helped keep all the staff and children safe throughout this testing year. The staff are always warm and friendly, always welcoming
and happy to see him at drop off and always informative when I pick him up.

An absolutely lovely nursery. The manager is an absolute gem, very well-spoken, professional and such a lovely person. I felt so comfortable talking to her and expressing my concerns about my baby. She helped a lot and I am so happy with the nursery.
The parent zone app is an amazing tool, I can see
everything about my baby. The staff are amazing and are really helpful and meet my baby's needs all the time. I am happy I chose this nursery and have recommended it to my friends as well.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.238)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.238) out of 10 for Kids Planet Higher Broughton 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 11 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 4.894 for Kids Planet Higher Broughton is calculated as follows: ( (118 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.894

  • 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 4.344 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Higher Broughton is based on 11 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 160 number of registered child places is 32. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 32 = 0.344

  • 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.
