Busy Bees has been fantastic for our little boy. The staff are so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely caring - you can really see how much they enjoy working with the children. Our son absolutely loves going each day, and it's been amazing to see how confident and happy he is. The environment is nurturing,
well-organised, and full of fun learning opportunities. We feel completely at ease knowing he's in such great hands. Highly recommend!

My son was 2 years and nearly 4 months when he started his journey with Busy Bees, which was a little earlier than I'd anticipated but the choice was made to help with further development of his social skills and interactions with others.
The staff have been absolutely brilliant with him from day one.
The managers, key workers and others have all contributed to his learning journey in such a positive way and they are giving him the best care and support that he needs. He is also trying food that he's never wanted to eat at home, so hats off to the chef too!
Nothing is ever too much and the staff are always there for us as parents.
The change we have seen from September to now has been amazing. He loves being at Busy Bees so much, he cries when he has to come home so it was definitely the right choice for us and him.

Our little one started at Busy Bees when he was 9 months old. He's settled brilliantly, and has developed lovely relationships with the staff and his key workers. They've worked hard to ensure he's happy during the day and now he clearly enjoys himself and loves all the messy play and activities. The
food is really varied. The app is helpful and we appreciate the regular updates and photos of what he gets up to during the day. We're really glad we chose Busy Bees.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our child has been attending for several months and has had the most wonderful start to nursery life. The staff are all caring and attentive, and put the children's needs first. Communication is excellent and we couldn't be happier with the activities on offer each day. The food menus are brilliant
and offer a range of healthy food, which our child loves (more so than anything we cook at home!) Having to be apart from our child all day was certainly difficult at first, but the staff have made the transition for all of us nice and easy. All in all, we couldn't ask for better care. Thank you!

Our daughter has been so happy at Busy Bees. She was only 15 months when she started, and now she's nearly 5 years old.
She has learnt so much and has had amazing care workers throughout. We are so glad we chose Busy Bees, and we would recommend the nursery without a doubt.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our family moved to Droitwich 5 months ago and our twins joined Busy Bees pre-school. The nursery have been very welcoming and the children have settled in really well. The staff know all the children and are very caring. The Be Curious curriculum is a great idea to help generate activities with the
children and they get really excited talking about their current topics. The pre-school is well structured and the partial uniform helps to transition the children for school. We have been really happy with our choice of nursery and will miss everyone at Busy Bees. Thank you for looking after our girls so well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been at Busy Bees Droitwich since he was 9 months old and recently graduated from pre-school. He's had a fantastic early years experience, and we're so grateful to the wonderful staff who've cared for him over the past 4 years.
We've always been happy with the nursery, but it's really
flourished since the 2024 refurbishment and arrival of the Centre Director. The pre-school team is amazing, and the Bee Curious curriculum has truly inspired our son, he comes home excited to learn more every day. The staff really nurture his interests and have done an excellent job preparing him for school.
At pick-up, the children are always happy and engaged, and our son has built lovely friendships. We'll really miss the team at Busy Bees and can't thank them enough!

My children love the staff and the nursery, they are always talking about what they have done throughout the day and how fun it has been. All of the staff are fantastic, you're always greeted with a smile and told concisely what sort of a day the children have had. Can't fault it.

I highly recommend this nursery. Initially, I was quite anxious about leaving my daughter in their care, but the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. After over a year with them, they have truly become like family. With the recent arrival of my second daughter, I am eager for her to join as well.
The
nursery excels in every aspect, from its outstanding facilities to its excellent food. Having visited all the nurseries in the area, I can confidently say this one is the best. They maintain excellent communication through photos and messages throughout the day and offer fantastic additional activities for parental involvement.

I would like to say how amazing the nursery have been to support my son's needs over the last 2 years since he has attended the setting. He has received amazing care from all staff who have come into contact with him during his time at the nursery and as a family, we will be really sad to say goodbye
when he moves on to school in September. The team are always very friendly and helpful with any concerns we have had and always ready to offer support and advice on any challenges we have come across on our journey in early years childcare for our son. I would really recommend the nursery to parents of children with additional needs as they have a great SENCO and a staff team who are willing to continue to extend their learning and skills to support your child. They have been accommodating of our son's dietary needs due to his additional needs and for this, we cannot thank them enough. The preschool team are a credit to the nursery, the senior team are supportive and approachable, especially the manager!

We are very happy with the nursery and staff. All staff are very helpful and supportive and our daughter absolutely adores her key workers. At the start, our daughter struggled to settle in as she only comes one day a week, but the staff really put extra effort to help her to settle in and she loves
to go to the nursery now. It’s always nice to drop her off in the morning as we know she will have a fun day.

The facilities and staff at Busy Bees are fantastic. We did struggle with so many different staff as our son started, but he is well settled now. It’s nice that they understand his personality as much as we do.
My only gripe is the app often logs me out and doesn’t recognise biometrics, and I have
to reset it - a very minor issue.

My child has been really well looked after at Busy Bees. We have really noticed changes in her development since she started, only last month, which has been a real joy to see. The nursery is great at keeping us informed about her day via the app, and we love getting updates and photos. Staff are very
friendly and positive and highly skilled. We feel confident that they have our daughter's best interests at heart and have got to know her quickly, building a lovely relationship with her. We are very grateful knowing she is being so well looked after on the days she attends - thank you.

My daughter began going to the nursery in March 2023 and the team there have been brilliant so far. Our little girl looks forward to going there and I have never experienced any issues. They have all been great in helping her settle into nursery and making me feel at ease and that she is looked after
well.
They communicate with us via the app which is great, I know this must take a lot of time but any more pics you can add when she is there would be great (appreciate there is not always time).

Our daughter absolutely loves attending Busy Bees Nursery. Even from a young age it’s been clear when dropping her off in the morning that she has built positive relationships with the regular staff in her room. She can’t wait to get over to them for a cuddle and to start playing.
Staff are very friendly
and accommodating; nothing is ever too much trouble. They are happy to answer any questions and are always available for a chat. We have built a great relationship with our child’s key worker.
Communication from the nursery is great and the regular updates on the app have given us so much peace of mind. We absolutely love seeing the photos of what she’s up to throughout the day. She engages in a range of exciting and stimulating activities.
The meals and snacks provided are balanced and healthy; it’s wonderful knowing our child is being exposed to a wide variety of foods during her weaning journey.
Couldn’t recommend Busy Bees enough.

My son will soon be leaving the nursery to move on to "Big School" after attending since he was 9 months old. Throughout the nursery, we have had a positive experience, and he has always seemed to be happy to be left in the morning.
The staff within the setting are welcoming and friendly. He has
some lovely bonds with the practitioners, and one person particularly has moved through the nursery as he has progressed and she has been an absolute superstar! He will be lost without you. The practitioners have been on hand for advice and support in various development stages; and been knowledgeable and professional. I feel the nursery has handled the current situation well. I know I can ring to speak to his key worker at any time; I do not feel his learning or wellbeing have been hampered.
The observations we receive through the app are lovely and show a range of activities.
I'm very confident my son is ready for school, and I cannot thank the nursery enough for their major input.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.635)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.635) out of 10 for Busy Bees Droitwich 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 12 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 Busy Bees Droitwich is calculated as follows: ( (134 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 143 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 4.698 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Droitwich is based on 12 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 86 number of registered child places is 17.2. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.2 = 0.698
  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.
