I was anxious about my son starting nursery at 7.5 months but the staff at Twinkles have been absolutely fantastic and have helped him to settle in and love nursery! The quality of care is outstanding and the nursery nurses clearly genuinely care about the happiness and development of each child. Since
starting at Twinkles, my son has learnt so many new skills and I notice a change in him every week. He is growing into a clever and independent young child and this is definitely thanks to the excellent nursery provision!

Twinkles Nursery is a brilliant setting. My daughter goes in with a big smile and leaves with a big smile on her face. This shows me that she loves being in the nursery. All the staff are very friendly and professional.
The environment is extremely clean and stimulating. The classroom is bright and
spacious and it provides a wide range of excellent activities and toys. The set up of the classroom encourages my daughter to become an independent and inquisitive child.

Twinkles Nursery at Oxford Place is an absolutely amazing nursery.
I had a full year off of work when my daughter was born and by my return to work she was very attached to me and still breastfeeding, so I was understandably nervous about her starting nursery.
Twinkles arranged settling in sessions,
helped me plan supplying pumped milk for a while, asked loads of questions about how to help my daughter settle in and even emailed me an update on her progress on her first day.
For a while I was just so pleased she genuinely seemed to love going to Twinkles, but now I've noticed a real change in her. She's developing new social skills, as she now gets to socialise with lots of other children. She's getting regular opportunities to participate in creative activities that it would be very difficult to recreate at home. I still feel very much a part of her care. With Twinkles everything is a collaborative effort and it's bringing a wonderful new dimension to my daughter's development.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since January and has so far been thriving in the positive environment provided by the staff.
I feel her continued presence here will help her learn and adapt as she gets older.

Brilliant care, and very accommodating of special requirements, with no problems. Our daughter's been coming since the nursery opened and always comes home having had a good time.
Definitely recommended.

The facilities at the nursery are excellent with a wide range of activities and toys, including a well stocked outdoor area and soft play area in the basement.
The staff take a genuine interest in my daughter and work hard to ensure she develops well and meets/exceeds all milestones.
As a result,
she is happy at the nursery and is progressing well.
The nursery also provides healthy food options and a wide range of different recipes.

We moved from another Twinkles as the facilities at Oxford Place are great and the décor and the equipment are all new - so it's a really nice environment. The staff there are great - really friendly and enthusiastic. My son settled in quickly and clearly enjoys his time there.

I am so happy with Twinkles Oxford Place. My son loves it there.
You are always greeted with a warm smile by the staff when dropping off and picking up your child. The staff are so happy and caring, which is what you want when you are leaving your child for the day.
The nursery itself is spotlessly
clean. They have a wide variety of toys and activities for the children to play with and go outside every day if the weather allows. It's like leaving my little boy with family!

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.381)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.381) out of 10 for Kids Planet Oxford Place - Leeds City Centre 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 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 4.778 for Kids Planet Oxford Place - Leeds City Centre is calculated as follows: ( (87 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.778

  • 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 4.603 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Oxford Place - Leeds City Centre is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.8 = 0.703

  • 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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Joined: 2017

I have had the pleasure of working here at Leeds Oxford Place since 2017, during that time I have gained so much experience and have been able to progress in various roles and have recently become the Manager here in June 2024.
During this time, I’ve even welcomed my little girl to the world who I have been able to watch flourish and grow within this Nursery, she is now three and thriving. This gives me the desire and drive to provide the best for all children in my Nursery, whether this be engaging with them myself and implementing a variety of opportunities, or training and supporting my staff to be the very best they can be.
