My child has so much fun attending Kids Planet and he has made so much progress since starting! The staff are very professional, nurturing and provide all of the children with so many wonderful opportunities. I can relax knowing my child is in a safe, secure and stimulating environment! The nursery
is so convenient to so many people situated on a new build housing estate and has been purposely designed to utilise all of the area as well as remain a private space for the children. Stepping through the door is like stepping into a mini community and I am excited to see what else he gets up to on his days at nursery as he progresses through each room! Thank you so much to the wonderful staff!

My little one has developed so much since starting here. All staff are very caring and attentive. We always get pictures and updates on how his day is going and he always looks like he’s having so much fun. He also eats really well there so that makes it easier at home. Would strongly recommend this
nursery.

Amazing nursery, I can’t even explain how much my children have come on since attending here. They absolutely adore going, they love all their teachers.
They constantly go above and beyond and create such a connection with the children.

My daughter has been part of the Kids Planet Nursery since April 2022 and she loves it. The staff are great, the activities they get involved in are amazing, and the food is "yummy" to quote her. The kids' needs are always put first and there's never a shortage of hugs and reassurance if the little
ones are upset. I am very happy with my daughter's progress and we will carry on attending until school time. Thank you.

Our little boy started here last year and has gone from strength to strength with his confidence. The staff go above and beyond with teaching and supporting the children. Every level of staff/management get fully involved and create amazing ideas for the children to learn and progress. They regularly
take the children out and have a great balance of fun and learning. We wouldn't want to send our son anywhere else.

My daughter is due to attend next week however we have been involved with the nursery since June 2023 and they have made us feel like part of the family already. They have offered us weaning classes, invited us to parents evening and got us involved even though our daughter hasn't officially started
yet. They have let us visit the nursery many times so our daughter can play and get used to the environment. The facilities are fantastic and I cannot fault anything. Before choosing a nursery for our daughter we visited fourteen in total and this nursery excelled in all areas; staff friendliness, facilities, activities for all ages, food served and much more.

Our little boy is in the baby room. He is extremely well cared for, and mentally stimulated. The staff are very caring and always take the time to explain what they are doing with the children, and we get frequent updates throughout the day.

We have been thrilled with Kids Planet since our daughter started over a year ago. Our daughter settled really well and is thriving thank you to the wonderful staff. There have been some minor issues, however, these have always been dealt with upon reporting to the managers who are approachable and
passionate about the nursery’s success. The facilities are fantastic and there are lots of extracurricular activities and events in which the parents and families can get involved. We are lucky to have such a lovely nursery on our doorstep!

Both my sons have attended Kids Planet Winnington, my eldest has now moved onto school and we feel that pre-school helped him with his transition. The staff helped him with his confidence and social skills to ease the transition. My youngest is now in the toddler room, the staff are so caring and are
always doing lots of activities with him to build on his interpersonal skills ad development. When I pick him up, he always seems so happy and I believe being at nursery has helped him become so sociable. It's a lovely nursery and we would love our son to continue into pre-school, like his brother did, he didn't want to leave!

We are very happy with our daughter's development. She loves coming into nursery. We are moving house at the moment and the staff have been amazing in supporting us and our child. We were given books, flashcards and pen and paper to teach about our move. This has helped.

My daughter started at Winnington when it first opened in October 2021 and has really enjoyed it. She loves attending and currently comes 2 days a week. She will be moving to 3 days in May. The staff are lovely and go out of their way to welcome her so she feels comfortable and send us lots of pictures
of the activities they get up to. We think the app is great. She loves her food and often has seconds and loves playing in the outside space and sensory room. She chats all night when she gets home to tell us about her day. Couldn’t ask for a better place for her to learn and grow. Thanks everyone for looking after her.

Our little girl is thriving with Kids Planet. The nursery ensures she has great opportunities to learn and to play and we can see her confidence building each week. We have no doubt she will be more than ready to start school next year.

My 2 boys both attend and they both absolutely love it. We are really happy we made the choice to move my eldest from his previous nursery. The staff are all fantastic, they have both built great relationships with them all. They keep us updated regularly throughout the day and when we pick them up,
and I really enjoy getting pictures of the varied activities they have been involved in with their little friends. The facilities are great, it is all-new, modern and purpose-built with the children in mind and the outdoor areas are excellent too. I also love the extra little touches, like having a bedtime story evening and the little community Christmas trail etc. All really thoughtful.

My son absolutely loves attending Kids Planet Winnington, he has built a great relationship with everyone there and is a confident and adventurous individual. He seems be to thriving and is well supported. The nursery are great at informing us of what he has been up to during the day and it is obvious
that he has had a great time. We had parent evening last night which was informative and has helped us to identify what we can do at home to help him develop and continue to flourish. All staff are warm, kind and approachable. I would highly recommend this setting.

We have 2 children in the nursery and they’ve been there since it opened. They absolutely love going to nursery and get excited every time they know it’s a nursery day!
They have both made huge improvements in their development since starting and their speech and language have both come on leaps and
bounds in the last few months.
The staff are incredibly friendly and supportive, and it is definitely a home from home setting. Our children are thriving, and it is especially great to see how the team listen to the interests of the children and incorporates this into their day to day learning.
We love getting the regular updates and photos throughout the day regarding meals and activities. We can see why our children come home with massive smiles on their faces after every fun-filled day they have had!
Thank you so much!

I couldn’t recommend Kids Planet Winnington highly enough. The care they provide my daughter is outstanding. Since starting in January 2022, she has been happy at this setting and developed key social and communication skills. The staff are also friendly, personable, informative and professional. Every
member of staff knows my daughter and speaks to her and me daily, even if she is not in their room. This demonstrates a high level of inclusion within the nursery. The staff work extremely hard to maintain a phenomenal level of care and as a parent, I am extremely grateful for all that they do.

Our little boy attends the nursery, and we couldn't be any happier with the care he receives. The app is a great resource to keep track of what he has been up to during the day. The staff are friendly and caring whilst the facilities are great. Thank you, Kids Planet Winnington.

We have had 2 children in the nursery since opening and have been absolutely blown away.


Our eldest cannot wait to go in a morning and we can see why.


The staff are incredible and always keep us up to date about their progress both verbally on site and through regular updates on the parents app.


The

facility is great, and allows outdoor exploration which both of our children love.


They have fostered relationships with both staff and other children. They perform a wide variety of activities that are both fun but also great for their development.


We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this great nursery to others.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.959)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.959) out of 10 for Kids Planet Winnington 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 49 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 49 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 Winnington is calculated as follows: ( (565 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 588 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 Winnington is based on 49 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 125 number of registered child places is 25, which has been reached with 49 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.
