Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Overall good but there have been a lot of changes to the environment. The staff/team, the structure of days. I think this has felt a little chaotic at times but sure the end result will be worth it.
Communication around change - particularly key workers - could be improved.

Initially, my son would cry when I brought him to the nursery but because of the love and care that staff gave to him, he has now settled down, he is happy and looks forward to coming to the nursery.

I like how close the nursery is to the tube station.
The schedules and prices suit us as well.
The nursery workers have "loved" my baby since day 1.
I appreciate how easy things are with the nursery.

I chose this nursery because my oldest child came here. The experience was and is amazing. The staff know what they are doing and now under new management, is even better. She makes you feel you are part of a big family and makes sure you and your child are happy here and there are no concerns. Teachers
are just lovely and my child loves it. I can go to work with peace of mind. I would only recommend refurbishing the space which you are already doing. Thank you for all the hard work, don't charge.

My daughter has attended Mace since June 2017 and the care provided by the staff have been second to none.
They support us when the development plans we have at home for her.
We're hopeful things don't change.
Well done Mace.

My daughter has been at Mace since 2016. The staff are friendly and fantastic at providing advice for a first time mum. My daughter loves going to nursery and my mind is at ease knowing she is being well looked after.
I would highly recommend this nursery.

Good nursery, great teachers and they do a good range of activities. They often go to the local park and onto their roof terrace, which lets the children get fresh air. We also like the Montessori approach.

My child settled very quickly into the nursery. The staff are very caring and they took good care of the well-being and development of the children.
The class leader, in Bumble Bee room, is extremely good, I really like how she cares and teaches the children.

I really like the nursery because I have seen so many great improvements on my daughter in her speaking, understanding, playing and even being open to eat veggie food. The staff are lovely and caring too.

My daughters go just 2 days per week. I see them very happy there and always excited to go to nursery and they always, in their days off, ask me to take them to nursery. That's a good sign, plus the staff there are very kind and helpful. The Manager is a very good character - just if you can send for
parents about holidays- by mail.

Our daughter has been happy at Mace Montessori, Hammersmith. The staff care about her and have time to let us know how she's getting on.
Would love to see an online/electronic diary. Had this at a previous nursery and I could log on and see photos during the day.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.461)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.461) out of 10 for Montessori by Busy Bees Hammersmith is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 4 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.915 for Montessori by Busy Bees Hammersmith is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 47 Ratings = 4.915
  2. 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 3.546 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Montessori by Busy Bees Hammersmith is based on 4 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.375
    2. 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 117 number of registered child places is 23.4. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.4 = 0.171
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
