  • Blossom Tree Nursery School, Bristol
Blossom Tree, located near Portishead’s vibrant marina, is a nursery school full of wonder and learning.

Inside the nursery, rooms are tailored to meet the needs of children aged from 4 months to 5 years. The large rooms use natural resources to create an inviting home-from-home environment. Outside, children benefit from a purpose-built wooden structure for toddlers as well as an allotment, all ensuring that they can connect with nature through a variety of outdoor experiences.

Following the Early Years Foundation Stage framework as well as the Storal approach to curriculum, the team work hard to ensure every child is given the opportunity to learn, explore and develop at a pace that suits them.

Meals are freshly prepared by the onsite chef using locally sourced food. Older children also participate in meal preparation and enjoy assisting in the kitchen. Mealtimes are an opportunity for children to refuel, be sociable and learn about nutrition.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have just had our 2nd child and the staff at Honeytree have been very supportive to our toddler in helping her adjust to her new little brother.Taking time to talk to her about him. Her key worker and all the staff in her room have been very supportive of us. They helped with potty training when
it became an issue after the baby's arrival. My little girl loves going to nursery and this is a massive credit to the staff there. Thank you all so much.

My son has just started at nursery in September and the staff could not have been better. They have been very accommodating and my little boy is always so happy when I pick him up. Communication of the day is always of a good standard too. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone who wants a 'family'
feel.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been going to Honeytree Day Nursery for just over a year after relocating from another area. In this time he has made lots of new friends and settled in really well. From day one all of the staff have been lovely and friendly. The children do lots of different activities on a daily basis
and seem very happy. The nursery has recently been extended and refurbished with lots of new equipment and an amazing outside space. They have a healthy and nutritious menu with lots of variety. Parents are kept informed via a monthly newsletter, parents evenings and daily contact with key workers. We would highly recommend Honeytree Day Nursery to anyone looking for a nursery in the Portishead area.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our son has been attending Honeytree Day Nursery for a year. He looks forward to his visits and with excitement talks about the time spent playing with friends and learning with teachers. The upgraded facilities inside and out are fantastic. The menu is varied and good. All staff are professional and
personable.

Our son attended this nursery for nearly 2 years. During this period of time, we have never had any problems. We think that young personnel give good benefits with contact to children. Our son uses two languages and the teachers help him a lot.

Amazing facilities where my little girl enjoys a variety of different fun activities. All the staff are so helpful, friendly and passionate about what they do always finding new ways to encourage the children's development. The food menu offers lots of variety and I find my little girl eats very well
due to the social dining environment. We love Honeytree Day Nursery and would highly recommend them to everyone!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son absolutely loves going to Honeytree Day Nursery. He has settled in so well and I feel happy and comfortable leaving him there while I'm at work. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. My son has built up really good relationships with his carers. I have been really pleased with the good progress
my son has made whilst he's been at nursery and I always feel like I can chat to the staff if I have any concerns about his development. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Honeytree Day Nursery to other parents.

Our twins love their time at Honeytree nursery. They take part in a huge range of activities and when I collect them at the end of the day they are full of confidence and enthusiasm. Honeytree are very flexible with the days that my twins attend, working around my husbands shift patterns therefore meaning
that childcare is much more affordable. We are so pleased we chose Honeytree.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.937)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.937) out of 10 for Blossom Tree Nursery School 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.937 for Blossom Tree Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (314 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 335 Ratings = 4.937
  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 Blossom Tree Nursery School is based on 28 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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2, which has been reached with 28 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.
