Although my daughter started going to nursery a few days ago, I am so far satisfied with the nursery. She settled very well and I can see that she enjoys her time there.

My daughter has been at Busy Bee's for the last 2 years, moving from the baby room through to toddlers and has just started in the pre-school room. I have been really happy with her care at Busy Bees, the most important thing to me has been that all the staff I have had contact with have really cared
about the children.


The manager is excellent and she always makes time to speak to parents if they have any questions or concerns. Whenever I have given her feedback she has acted on it quickly and let me know the outcome.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Busy Bees is a fantastic nursery for children. The staff are very warming and helpful and are always encouraging the children to interact with one another and engage in learning activities. Staff are on point with their assessment of my child and regularly have a deep and meaningful dialogue about her
development when my child is picked up from nursery. They regularly hold events such as Easter bonnet competitions to engage the community and create an inclusive environment. Children are often taught in the garden providing fresh air and stimulating environments to learn within and activities are differentiated according to their needs. They eat a variety of healthy foods and treats. They are organised and very efficient. I highly recommend them.


Thank you.

Busy Bees is an excellent nursery with lots of entertainment activities, the staff are great and show lots of effort with the children in their learning skills and education. My son is in the preschool room and I am very pleased with his progress at learning new things and enjoying the time in the nursery.

I have been using Busy Bees for both my children and I'm extremely satisfied with the staff, facilities and the care they are providing. My 2-year-old is currently in nursery and the growth I see in her has been immense ever since she joined the nursery. Her speech, behaviour and manners are all improving
day by day, thanks to the care and education the staff are continuously providing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started here just as she turned 2 and we have been very happy with the care she has received there. Friendly and kind staff, at all levels who have a genuine interest in helping us get the most out of her time there. Staff retention seems good and the last two changes in management have
seen the whole place sharpen up. My daughter has developed a lovely bond with her key worker who has been fantastic helping her develop in all aspects of her development, educationally and socially. They provide interesting and relevant activities that my daughter happily tells me about at the end of the day, it will be a sad day when we leave for the final time before school starts. She also eats very well, the menu seems wide and varied, she often voices her preference for the nursery version of things I make at home! Compared to some other nurseries in the area that offer the equivalent full-time hours I feel that You are unlikely to get much better value than here.

Review from Alpa M (Mother of Child) published on 29 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attended the nursery during 2014-2017 and enjoyed it very much. The staff at the nursery have always been supportive even during tough times. There was a period where the nursery needed some renewed energy and I am glad that it got the attention it needed as it has made a huge difference.
This is the sole reason why I decided to send my son to the nursery. He absolutely loves being there and has a very special bond with the staff in the babies room. I thank the staff at the nursery for the strides he has made in his development. He was a premie baby and I had concerns about his development (as most mothers would have) but the staff have been incredible. The manager has worked very hard to get the nursery back on track and it shows, the staff are confident and always there when you need them. There is no longer a demoralized atmosphere amongst the staff, instead, you can see they enjoy their work and because of that, the kids at the nursery are much happier.

My daughter goes to Busy bees Nursery and I feel so fortunate to have found it…


The carers are beyond fantastic – genuinely loving, it's so good to know your children are in the best hands while you are at work. They are always doing fun activities and kept really busy. Their routines are well respected,

communication and feedback is great. The food is amazing (I am jealous of the menu)
My daughter is happy and confident – and I have no doubt this is in part due to the supportive environment they provide with key carers and consistent caregivers.
My husband and I couldn’t be happier and would be quick to recommend Busy bees to anyone looking for a caring, supportive, educational environment for their children.

My son has been enrolled with Busy Bees Highlands since he was 4months old, he is now 18months and has grown very fond of all of his caregivers, especially the cook (lol). He has no problem leaving my side to walk into the nursery and navigate his way to his peg and run excitedly to his playroom. He
has often great interaction with his friends and is clearly enjoying every moment there with them. Both my husband and I have nothing but positive things to say about our experience with this nursery and will recommend considering them as a good option for your childcare needs.

I’m very happy with the Nursery and the management.
My daughter loves being there even though she goes only for 2 sessions a week but since then her language skills have improved a lot.
Decent playing area for toddlers, nice clean and tidy.
The cleanliness recently improved a lot, probably thanks
to the lovely manager :)
Overall I’m happy my daughter is happy so I would recommend to my friends and family.

The staff and management of Busy Bees Highland Village are quite warm, friendly and very helpful.
I enrolled my child barely a month and a half ago and he has settled really well. Naturally, I was anxious but the team put me totally at ease.
In this short space of time, I have observed that there
have been tremendous changes in my child's social interactions.
I couldn't be more glad to have enrolled him here, as I know he is in very capable hands.

The staff that care for my daughter clearly love looking after children and make a huge effort to ensure that Busy Bees Enfield is a happy and caring environment for all children. The staff all know my daughter well and take an interest in her which goes beyond the confines of the nursery walls. They
are sensitive to her idiosyncrasies and flexible and accommodating. We feel grateful and lucky to have found such a lovely environment!

Busy Bees at Enfield is an excellent childcare facility, my daughter has been so happy attending since she was 8 months old until the present day. We are sad that she is leaving this preschool due to our relocation. The staff are wonderful, so caring and attentive to the children. They pay attention
to the individual needs of each child, and I have loved seeing my daughter grow in confidence while attending Busy Bees. There is a lovely atmosphere in the nursery and the indoor and outdoor facilities are great. I would highly recommend this facility to any parent who wants to be ensured that their child is being well cared for.

My son has just started in the baby room and I am so happy with the care he has been given so far. We are both welcomed in with genuine happiness and they have all reassured me that he will be having a lovely day. On his first day, I got an update and photo in their online app which made me much more
relaxed. They have made my journey back to work after maternity leave much more relaxed than I thought it was going to be. My son is so excited in the mornings to see his key person already.

Current Review Score: 7.8 (7.750)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.8 (7.750) out of 10 for Busy Bees Enfield Highlands Village is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.542 for Busy Bees Enfield Highlands Village is calculated as follows: ( (13 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.542
  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 3.208 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Enfield Highlands Village 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:

    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 = 3.125
    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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.083
  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.
