Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been going to Busy Bees at Hillingdon for around a year now. Since attending here she has developed so much, her speech, manners, counting, her understanding of objects, everyday chores such as scrapping her plate into the bin and putting her plate in the sink. I would never think to
do anything like making her take her plate up, I automatically do this for her, it's so simple but genius. The staff at this nursery are always one step ahead, so organised. They all communicate which nowadays is so rare, they genuinely care about the children it's not just a 'job'. I would 100% recommend this nursery. We will be sad when the time comes to say goodbye.

I cannot express my love for this nursery enough.
My son was truly grown so much.
He is in pre-school now and I have to say, the staff are supporting my son in such a way I am completely relaxed when he's not at nursery.
They challenge him so he tried harder and they know him so well.


This is

not just a nursery to us, the staff make us feel like family.

From the time you open the door, to when you collect your child, you couldn't ask for a more friendly or welcoming nursery. For a boy that usually clings to mummy, my son now dives from my arms into the staffs every morning and leaves with a wave and blowing kisses! He couldn't be any happier or well
looked after anywhere else. His smile is the best review as a parent you can get.

I was so nervous about sending my daughter to nursery but I had no reason to be. Busy Bees at Hillingdon has quickly become like a second home for her. I can't thank the staff enough, she has become so much more confident and has learnt so many new things. The girls who work in her room (Buttercup)
are great and always work with me to get my daughter to try/do new things e.g crawling.

We love Busy Bees at Hillingdon and so do our boys! The staff are so friendly and supportive which is great with the morning drops when our youngest can get a bit upset.


They have so many exciting experiences and It's great to see the pictures on the 'iconnect'. Thank you for all you do.

Busy Bees at Hillingdon always make my child feel welcome and he loves going there. He always has so much fun and tells me about his day. The staff provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere when we come to play. The feedback at the end of the day is always part of the day I look forward to and I am never
let down. The staff go into so much detail about what activities my son took part in.

The whole nursery is very welcoming. All the staff know my son by his name and he cannot wait to go back there.


I feel very confident he is in safe hands and enjoying himself.

The staff here are all very nurturing and caring. This reflects in how the children treat others. Communication has improved greatly over the last six months meaning that all parents are kept fully informed on any issues or changes.


There are many fun activities that the children get involved in

both at the centre and outside too.

Caring, attentive staff always welcome my daughter with a smile. She is excited to go and sad to leave each day. They genuinely care about her wellbeing and help her/us to develop her education (which is quite important to us). So glad we are at Busy Bees Hillingdon and couldn't imagine her anywhere
else.

Both of us, me and my child, love the environment. Staff are so friendly, they became like a family to us. My little girl enjoys every day spent there and I know how she is very well looked after. Food is healthy and nutritious also. Plenty of activities for children to take part in and enjoy.

My experience of Busy Bees at Hillingdon has been fantastic. All the staff encountered have been compassionate, supportive and highly skilled in child care. I feel the induction process, the key worker scheme and rooms themselves are of extremely high quality. I 100% trust the staff and feel they give
individual care and seem to take great pride in their jobs. I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery.

We have used this nursery for both of our sons over the past 7 years and couldn't be happier. We have always found the staff amazingly friendly, helpful and caring.
We loved the activities they select for the children on a daily basis and special events such as Easter hunts and Christmas plays.
Also
the amazing chef, cooking and mastering fab food.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
What a wonderful nursery! We are so pleased our son attends here. He is extremely happy! Each day follows a routine and is full of differing activities. My son especially loves the outdoor area which has just been furnished with a range of lovely wooden apparatus. The staff are kind and helpful and
always post observations, pictures and home-learning which I find useful.
The food is amazing- my son always has second helpings. What I love is the variety and the fact that there is always a healthy, hot meal every day.
The school Christmas play was brilliant and the staff and children put so much work into it!
I can't recommend Busy Bees enough!

Current Review Score: 1.3 (1.333)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 1.3 (1.333) out of 10 for Busy Bees Hillingdon is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 1.3 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 0 out of 5 from 0 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 1.333 for Busy Bees Hillingdon is calculated as follows: ( (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 1.333
  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 0 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Hillingdon is based on 0 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 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) =
    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 114 number of registered child places is 22.8. 0 Positive Reviews ÷ 22.8 = 0
  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.
