We love this nursery. After transferring over from another nursery, our son has settled in really well. The outdoor space is the best thing about it as he just loves to be outside. We always get lovely updates and photos, he eats well and always naps. We haven't had any issues at all so we are really
happy here!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team at Busy Bees Huntingdon are like our second family. We are two full time working parents and we needed a caring, learning focused, warm and welcoming environment for our son Frankie. The biggest thing we feel has had an impact for us and him, is the well transitioned rooms and care the staff
have had in helping Frankie move up rooms as he grows. Each staff member and keyworker genuinely cares and this has put at ease every step of the way. He has learned so much, gained so much confidence and recently has had the best connections with friends. I could not recommend the centre enough. Thank you busy bees Huntingdon

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I've had my daughter here since she was six months old, and I honestly can't thank the staff enough. I was quite anxious about leaving her with others at first-silly really, as I used to work in a nursery myself-but they quickly put my mind at ease.
The team always take the time to listen and are incredibly
supportive whenever I need help or advice. They've done a wonderful job caring for my daughter. The setting itself is always clean, tidy, and clearly well maintained, but for me, it's the staff who truly make it special. They are such kind, caring individuals, and they should be very proud of the environment they've created.

My son has recently started nursery at 9 months old, he has settled great. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, it's given me peace of mind going back to work, knowing that he enjoys his time at nursery. He's grown in confidence in such a short amount of time. The app is a great addition, as
it allows me to keep check on his day and feel connected even though we aren't together.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son started at Busy Bees Huntingdon at 6 months old, beginning one day a week and gradually building up to full time. He's now 2 and absolutely loves going. Every morning he runs to the door with his shoes and coat ready, which says everything about how happy and settled he feels.
The staff are
incredibly caring and genuinely invested in each child. They've supported him from baby to confident toddler and really know him as an individual. His confidence, communication and independence have grown so much, and we've seen real progress in his listening skills, social development and willingness to try new things.
He enjoys a great mix of activities including painting, singing, stories and sensory play. Outdoor time is a big highlight, especially the tricycles and bikes. The app updates and photos are a lovely touch and keep us connected to his day. We couldn't recommend them more.

We couldn't be happier with Busy Bees Huntingdon. The nursery provides such a warm, safe and welcoming environment for children, and it's clear that the staff truly care about every child in their care.
A special thank you to Libbi, Kaz and Tricia - they have our deepest respect and appreciation. They
are incredibly dedicated, patient and supportive, and they have helped our son so much with his development and confidence. Seeing how happy he is there means everything to us as parents.
It's wonderful to know that he is surrounded by such caring and passionate people every day. We highly recommend Busy Bees to any parent looking for a nurturing and trustworthy nursery for their child.

My little one started at busy bees in January 2026 after my maternity leave finished. The staff were amazing at supporting us through the settling in period. Their support has made the transition so much easier and now my little one is thriving and really enjoying nursery. The staff are so caring and
responsive and the regular updates throughout the day really help me feel close to my little one.

We are very happy with this nursery. Both of our children attend and we feel very grateful for the care and support they receive every day.
The staff are kind, patient and attentive, creating a warm and safe environment where children feel comfortable and happy. It is clear that the team genuinely cares
about the children and their wellbeing.
Our children enjoy the activities, playtime and time spent with other children, and we can see how much they are learning and developing. Communication with parents is also very good, and we always feel informed about how our children are doing.
Thank you to the whole team for the care, dedication and positive atmosphere you create for the children.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.894)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.894) out of 10 for Busy Bees Huntingdon 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 44 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 44 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 4.894 for Busy Bees Huntingdon is calculated as follows: ( (473 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 526 Ratings = 4.894
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Huntingdon is based on 44 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 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 100 number of registered child places is 20, which has been reached with 44 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
