My daughter recently began at Kids Plant and I could not be more pleased with the staff and facilities. I know she is safe being looked after and having lots of fun.
Staff meets us straight away and settle her in for the day. On pick up give information about my daughters day and really show the care.

My little boy started at Kids Planet Queen Street in Sept 2024 in the baby room. He was just 10 months old. He felt too small to be left all day, but we felt reassured he would be in safe hands. Lots of updates and information on drop off and pick up made us happy to know he was happy.
He is now in
the rising 2s room. He absolutely loves going to nursery, his routine there is great for him and he absolutely loves playing and cuddling with all the room staff as well as office staff who know him just as well! The effort they have put into him is beyond anything we could have imagined!

I must say, I absolutely adore my daughter going here. She has been going since she was 6 months old and she is now just over 2 years old.
She has formed some amazing relationships with all of her workers in both the baby room and the toddler room.
I also have formed amazing relationships with the
workers in all of the rooms and often have chats with them about day to day life and they are always all ears.
They have a lovely outside space for my daughter to play in and they utilise it whenever they can. The inside area is just as nice and they arrange as many activities as they can throughout the day to ensure my daughter is engaged.
My daughter comes home from nursery beaming and cannot wait to tell me what she has done and talks to me about all of her friends and the workers there.
I cannot fault the team at Kids Planet Queen Street as they have been fantastic with my daughter!

Amazing nursery with amazing staff always friendly and welcoming with the biggest smiles always. They really take their time to get to know children and their family's. They have amazing activity's set out for the children to join in which they take into account the ability of each individual child.

The staff went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and confident in their ability to look after my child. Unlike others they took a holistic approach to my child and made it clear how important they felt supporting and understanding the family unit is. Our inclusion in his care and development
were seen as huge positives and something that they actively encourage. They see the child as a whole and tailor care to suit them. All staff have been approachable and friendly, which is clear to see with how comfortable my little one is with them now. They never pressured his settling in time and they again went out of their way to ensure a smooth transition. The managers have a firm hold of what is going on within their setting and that is clear to see and evident. Communication with parents is consistent and additional sessions are put in place for transitions and more complex communication requirements. All I can say is thank you.

The staff at this nursery are the best. My son is in the pre-school room and each day there are several activities set up every day; there's no getting bored here! My son loves the food! Home-cooked proper food daily. The outside area is also lovely.

My grandson absolutely loves going to Queen Street Kids Planet. He loves all the activities and trips, especially having breakfast with Santa. They are always well organised and the rooms are clean and welcoming. All the staff are fabulous, I would highly recommend Kids Planet my grandson has thrived
under their care.

My daughter has been at Queen Street Kids Planet for over a year. She is growing into a happy confident little girl and I believe the staff are a massive part of her journey. She loves going on her allocated days (2 days a week) She seems to thrive being there and socially she is doing very well mixing
with other children. She likes the meals they provide and seems to follow other children trying new foods or fruit and veg, something which she wouldn't be so keen to try at home. The venue is clean and welcoming. The staff arranges food/activity packs so you can take home ingredients to make soup etc. We have done this a few times and my daughter really enjoys it. One thing that makes a massive difference to me is the tea and coffee for station for parents in the mornings, I don't always have time for a coffee in the morning before as mornings can be so hectic. Little details like this help out massively. Thank you.

The staff are amazingly kind, generous, and patient, and it's a testament to the quality of the nursery that most of them have been working there for years. We appreciate the good communication and how well-organised it is. But the most important thing is that I feel that I can totally trust them to
look after the children- thank you.

My son attends Kids Planet Queen Street, Normanton. He is in the toddler room, he was very clingy and upset at the start and now he runs in and can not wait to go to nursery. He loves all the staff but he definitely has his favourites. This is the second son I have had at the Kid's Planet, my first
child loved his time here too. And loves to come back to visit now he's started school. I would 100% recommend Kids Planet Queen Street. You are all amazing.

My child has been attending this setting for the past 18 months and really enjoys their time there. The staff have been extremely helpful.
The setting has been great with my child's food intolerances and have worked to make sure that they have been accommodating.

Our little boy has attended the nursery since September. From day 1 all the staff have been lovely. The staff in the baby room are all so welcoming and caring. Our little boy now puts his arms out for the staff in the room and is so happy when he is there. This makes us as parents feel better when leaving
our boy for work.
The baby room staff are also very good at doing daily activities and learning opportunities for the babies.
The catering staff are also brilliant and have really helped our little boy eat and normalise food for him. This was our main worry when sending our boy to nursery as he has food allergies and previous aversion.
We cannot praise the staff at Queen Street enough. So thank you every one.

Queen Street has been amazing with my little boy he attended another setting and he's come on so much since moving him to Queen Street! They really do care for the children within their care and they are like another family! Since moving here he has been wearing his hearing aids all the time there were
he used to hide them all the time at his other nursery! Thank you girls!

Wonderful staff, my daughter bonded well with her key worker and she's settling in better now we are reassured as parents on every drop off which is lovely. A particular staff member is an asset to the team and went above and beyond in making a birthday card with my daughter bonded well with her dad!
Such a thoughtful task and it meant the world to us.

My daughter started in September and after a couple of weeks to settle in she loves going. Gets so excited when we pull into the carpark and rushes in each morning. She always likes to give hugs to the staff and is so happy to see them. She has progressed so much since September and her skills and speech
has really improved more.

All staff are more than welcoming to both myself and my daughter who has attended Queen Street for 4 months now. She has come on leaps within just a short period of time and comes home every day talking about all the kind staff. I have never felt so comfortable leaving her in childcare as I do with
these guys. I would recommend Queen Street to anyone in the area.

My daughter extremely like the "aunties". Every time she comes back very excited from nursery and she tells us what she did all day. Staff are very friendly and we really appreciate it, because they do more than they should do. I can really recommend the nursery.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.959)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.959) out of 10 for Kids Planet Queen Street is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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 4.959 for Kids Planet Queen Street is calculated as follows: ( (467 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 487 Ratings = 4.959

  • 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 Queen Street is based on 41 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 126 number of registered child places is 25.2, which has been reached with 41 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.
