Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Overall experience with the nursery is very good. The staff are very friendly and professional, there is a sufficient amount of feedback at the end of the day. Also caring for individual needs of the kids is very important and Busy Bees at Discoveryland is up there. One area of little improvement would
be invoicing and finance.

Lovely staff that I feel confident leaving my son in the care of for the days that he's in. Very informative on his progress and what he's up to during the days. He feels very comfortable in the class with covers and other children.

This nursery is really good, staff are very kind and welcoming. The way they look after the kids is amazing as they provide a lot of different activities and experiences. My daughter was always very happy to go there and she is happy after as well. The fact that the food is provided is great and it's
enabled her to try different things. Also, the opening hours are very convenient.

I have seen an improvement with my child's learning since joining the nursery. He looks forward to going 2 days a week and settled in really well. He's always happy to see the girls in the room and visa versa.

It has been a good experience for my son. The setting was different from where my daughter went to nursey. The staff are very friendly and easy to approach. My son has learnt a lot as well and made good friends. He is always playing and happy when I pick him up, there is nothing more a parent could
ask for. Thank you to all for looking after him so well. X

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We had reservations of sending our son to nursery due to losing twins 24 months before, thinking that it may be best to keep him with me at home. I am so glad that we did not follow through with this the nursery have been nothing but caring, sympathetic and have treated our son with nothing but the
utmost of care. To see his smiling face and watching him develop due to nursery makes me realise that I made the right decision. I would like to thank the nursery for making our son happy in an environment other than home one very pleased parent.

Busy Bees at Discoveryland have been caring for both my children for 5 years now. Throughout this time they have displayed a genuine interest in developing both of them. My eldest daughter has moved on to school now but my youngest child is happy and engaged and I feel strongly while my youngest daughter
has been in the Sunflowers room; the team are developing her literacy, numeracy and social skills in an appropriate way just as they did with my older child. I feel that Discoveryland has been outstanding for both my children and I would recommend them to any parent.

My experience of Busy Bees has been excellent, the staff are attentive to the children and genuinely show an interest in their happiness and development. I feel that my son has flourished whilst at the nursery developing socially especially, his confidence has grown greatly and I feel this is because
he is happy and confident here.

I highly recommend Discoveryland. My daughter has grown and developed immensely since attending this setting and now has the skills and confidence to enable her to settle into reception in September. She thoroughly enjoys attending Discoveryland and has made some very special friends including staff
members. She will be very sad to leave.

Staff are always happy to help and nothing is too much trouble. My children are very happy and settled at Discoveryland and have a really good bond with the staff as well as making strong relationships with other children. Their development has come on in leaps and bounds and I am confident that when
they start school in September they will have all the skills they need to flourish. The nursery has fantastic facilities with exceptional outdoor space and serves healthy, nutritious food.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.695)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.695) out of 10 for Busy Bees Discoveryland is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 15 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 4.967 for Busy Bees Discoveryland is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.967
  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 4.728 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Discoveryland is based on 15 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 103 number of registered child places is 20.6. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 20.6 = 0.728
  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.
