My son's stay at Kids Allowed Altrincham has been quite remarkable. The staff are absolutely amazing and very friendly. I will always recommend them for their exceptional attention to details and quality at a high standard. The learning aids and methodology is also commendable, well done to the management
and staff, keep up the great work.

This has been the best nursery I could have chosen, the massive variety and layout are great, they have everything your children can need and more. Everything is provided and every member of staff is amazing and it shows how much they care for my daughter as she developed lovely bonds with everyone.
It's a shame she has to leave but she's ready for the next step (School) and that is down to everyone that helped her move forward in her development and I couldn't thank each staff member enough! An amazing place!

The work that all of the staff members at Kids Allowed have done with my children has been outstanding.
I have loved hearing each day what my son has been up to from spots to painting and going out on adventures.
His knowledge, understanding and vocabulary have come on in leaps and bounds.
I could
not be more happy with the service I have been receivi8ng and the staff are just out of this world.
Thank you!

My son has attended Kids Allowed Altrincham since he was 7 months old and he is now almost 2. He is naturally a very busy little boy and needs constant stimulation otherwise he becomes easily bored.
I knew he enjoyed nursery but this was shown even more so after a 2-week break. I thought that he wouldn't
want to go on his first day back because he's spent so much time with family. He surprised me by running down the corridor into the key worker's arms with a big smile. That proved to me how happy he is there.

We love his little character and the fact he loves exploring more and more each day.

Kids Allowed are incredibly supportive and accommodating with our family. As an NHS worker, flexibility, where available, has ensured I can continue with my career whilst my son is cared for. As a shift worker ensuring my hours of work are covered where possible is important to us. Kids Allowed, where
able to, have always ensured this is met. 100% recommend. My son is very happy there. The activities, food and trips out he very much enjoys.

Reply from Nic Cleverly at Kids Planet Altrincham

Thank you for your words. We are so glad we can help and support where possible as going back to work is hard enough, let alone when you are a shift worker. He loves his time here and we love having him, he’s such a delight.

This nursery is by far the most outstanding environment for my son. It is run and managed by an amazing lady! Not only has this nursery given my son the best start, he continues to astound me everyday from the knowledge and growth that this nursery encourage! From the moment you walk in, it’s warm friendly
and inviting! Again a special mention to the manager, who is always always there to greet, answer queries and lend an ear! It is an impeccably clean and well kept nursery, the best I have ever seen, which I love for my son! Thank you for building a Kids Allowed in Altrincham.

The nursery is amazing. We came from another nursery where we had a very bad experience. Since coming to Kids Allowed Altrincham my self and my daughter have nothing but praise and thanks for the ream, they are beautiful, amazing and above and beyond imagination. They care completely and customer service
is second to none and you can tell it comes from the heart. I wish they opened 7 days a week.

Many thanks for your kind words of praise for our centre. We love looking after your little one and am glad she enjoys her experiences with us, as do you.

My daughter loves coming to Kids Allowed Altrincham. They pay so much attention to detail from the tea and coffee station for parents to the fruit platter at the end of the day for the children. You can really tell that the team care about your child and my daughter constantly talks about your child
and my daughter constantly talks about the nursery, the team and her friends. She has learnt so much since she started here and surprises me every day with something new. I am so happy I found Kids Allowed! I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery.

Kids Allowed Altrincham has been exceptional from the moment we joined. The care they show to the children is second to none and it makes the guilt you sometimes feel as a working mum disappear when you rush off to work (with one of their hot drinks in your hand) each morning knowing that my little
boy is happy and safe. The staff are very approachable and always go out of their way to make the nursery the best it can be. It’s clear that they love the children they work with and the company they work for. I would wholeheartedly recommend this nursery, it’s certainly the very best in the Altrincham area and I feel very lucky that our little boy gets to spend his time here. The facilitates are beautiful and the purpose-built building is light, spacious and has a huge variety of activities. I cannot speak highly enough of everything they do, thank you, Kids Allowed Altrincham!!

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.237)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.237) out of 10 for Kids Planet Altrincham 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 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 4.811 for Kids Planet Altrincham is calculated as follows: ( (112 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.811

  • 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 4.426 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Altrincham 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 129 number of registered child places is 25.8. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 25.8 = 0.426

  • 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.
