Great nursery, I can’t ask for more.
My son has had a brilliant time (over two and a half years!) and lots of experience.
He’s become so confident and ready to start school in September.
Thanks, Kids Allowed, I can’t recommend you more.

Just a general review of how amazing all of the staff are at this centre.
My daughter is exceeding and is a happy little soul even more since attending this nursery. She has come on so much. All the staff, including management, are so approachable and helpful, you can see what a strong team they are
all the children are happy. I have every confidence in leaving my child which is a big issue for me. You need more staff like MFT.

Reply from Emma Gilligan at Kids Planet Wythenshawe

Thank you for your review. We are so happy she has settled and are happy with our team at MFT South.

My son has attended Kids Allowed MFT South since he was four months old. He absolutely loves it, which is a testament to all the staff here.


From our original show round, we felt so comfortable. Our son was taken from us and cuddled by all the staff and we were made to feel so welcome! I feel completely

at ease leaving him here every morning that I drop him off.


He eats so well, the food served is so varied and he runs out to the fruit platter at the end of every day, which is another great idea!


The staff also take the kids on little trips to the farm and library during the day.


It’s a fab nursery, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it!

Thank you for the lovely review. It's been a pleasure having him and we can't wait to continue to watch him learn and develop on his Kids Allowed journey. I love seeing his smiley face in the morning.

Kids Allowed UHSM is a fantastic nursery. My son attended the prep school, it was an extremely unsettling time for both me and my child to begin with, but thanks to the amazing staff he settled in and thoroughly enjoyed his time there. The staff have endeavoured to ensure that my child has had a positive
experience and they provided me with a sense of ease, knowing that my child has been so well looked after.

Thank you for this lovely feedback Selina. I hope he settles well in his school. Its been a pleasure having him at Kids Allowed and being part of his development and learning. Emma x

Absolutely amazing and hardworking staff. My girl started in baby's room and now in waddlers room. Only a parent can understand the anxiety one feels in handing your child over to someone else for a whole day, and I found my baby girl easing off and enjoying the nursery and her key worker and everyone
around her with behaviour development changes as well, for example being afraid ad shy and crying at the site of someone other than her own parents, she is much more confident and engaging with guests and enjoys activities more than watching cartoons on TV.

It's lovely to see her growing in confidence each day! Thank you for the lovely review.

Current Review Score: 7.7 (7.711)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.7 (7.711) out of 10 for Kids Planet Wythenshawe is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 2 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 4.500 for Kids Planet Wythenshawe is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 34 Ratings = 4.5

  • 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 3.211 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Wythenshawe is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 116 number of registered child places is 23.2. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.2 = 0.086

  • 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.
