Busy Bees Woking has an environment that has been designed to see children of pre-school age able to explore, investigate ad learn. There are four spacious rooms which staff make the most of in terms of age-specific learning.

Every individual child has their progress monitored by a key person who can feedback to parents. Learning Journals are also created to show a child's learning history and gaining of new skills.

This pleasant day nursery has both outdoor and indoor gardens, looking to make the most of a forest theme in order to inspire the imagination and appreciation of nature.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Nice, friendly and helpful staff.
We recently received a Home Learning Book to be filled in which is a good idea.
The nursery organised a fun trip to a local fireworks event which we attended.
The nursery has a large indoor play area which is a great facility to have.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My little girl started at Busy Bees in Woking at 9 months and enjoyed her time there until the end of pre-school! She's now in reception year at school and thriving in a school environment; I think being at Busy Bees prepared her to be an independent confident little girl; my boy, now 2, also attends
the nursery and I couldn't be happier with his care under the amazing team across Busy Bees Woking. This nursery has brilliant spaces for kids to play, learn and have a lovely day overall. But I'd say the best feature of the nursery is it's caring, very professional staff. Always looking after kids and parents with so much love. Highly recommend it!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started nursery in the baby room and is now in the toddlers room. My daughter really enjoys coming to nursery and learns lots of new things. She has great relationships with staff and I feel they all know my daughter very well. The bond she has with key people is great. I feel my daughter
is happy at nursery. Thank you to all the team and all the great work they do.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.251)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.251) out of 10 for Busy Bees Woking 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 10 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 4.866 for Busy Bees Woking is calculated as follows: ( (103 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.866
  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 4.385 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Woking is based on 10 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) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 130 number of registered child places is 26. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 26 = 0.385
  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.
