Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All staff are welcoming and show so much care to our daughter. She goes to them with open arms, and this leaves me feeling safe and secure with our choice of nursery. We have updates frequently on parent zone which is wonderful and shows how she is growing in their care. I couldn't recommend them more.
I love the nursery and I love the people.

My daughter has gained so much confidence in herself since attending the nursery. She has so much knowledge due to the teachers, that give so much time to the kids. I couldn’t thank the staff enough for what they have done. Nothing is ever too much. My daughter asks to go to nursery every day, to me
that speaks volumes. Thanks for all your hard work. I literally wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Busy Bees in Telford Priorslee have been wonderful at settling my daughter in. She started in March 2017 and now it has literally become her second home.
The staff are friendly and welcoming. I am pleased to always hear of the fantastic day she has had. I know she is well looked after and cared for.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started this nursery in 2017, I was apprehensive about sending her as most parents are but I was welcomed and reassured by all nursery staff. I particularly liked the secure settings of the nursery and the welcoming feel. Since starting nursery my daughter has really come on and out of herself,
she has formed lovely relationships with all nursery staff as have I. Communication between staff and parents/carers is brilliant we are always kept up to date on what our children are doing. I wouldn’t hesitate at recommending or using this nursery again in the future. It’s a great place with lots of friendly faces.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has attended this nursery since 2017.
As with every parent we were a bit worried with leaving her at first but after our visit (which was completely unplanned and spur of the moment) we were made to feel welcome by a member of staff (who set a great precedent for the nurseries attitude
to parents who don’t book appointments!) we were shown around and immediately knew it was the place we wanted my daughter to attend.
She has taken a shine to all of her key workers that have been involved in her development whilst being there, two of them especially.
She has met loads of friends there as well which is really nice.
The systems in place work brilliantly such as parentzone where we get regular updates, observations and assessments (helps be part of their day to day)
Security is high level, I know this after being stopped and asked who I am because they didn’t recognise me.
Couldn’t recommend this nursery more.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children have attended Busy Bees and I have always been pleased with the standard of care. If anything it has improved since my youngest started nursery. We love the ParentZone app, the updates are great and we get to see so many more photos and can leave comments. I feel that the staff working
with my daughter genuinely care about her, she has become so much more confident since starting nursery. She loves the food and is so much more likely to try new foods with her friends around her than at home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My eldest son has been attending this nursery since Aug '14. From day one he loved nursery and the changes in his development were outstanding. My youngest son now also attends Busy Bees. He was much more hesitant when first starting and hated being left. He quickly learnt how amazing nursery is thanks
to the care and devotion of the staff. I can’t praise them enough for the way they have brought out the very best in both of my children and how passionate they are about the care they provide. They regularly post observational photos to a parent portal, along with creating paintings/cards for them to bring home with footprints, handprints, photos etc. The nursery is a clean and safe environment with brilliant facilities indoor and out, where I am confident that my children are receiving the best care. The meals provided for the children are nutritious and varied, and allergies are catered for with the highest level of care. Highly recommend this nursery and all of their amazing staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending Busy Bees since September 2017.
Her development and confidence has grown and grown in the time that she has been going. She thoroughly enjoys her days at nursery and always seems happy to be there.
The staff are friendly, supportive and approachable. My daughter has
formed good relationships with her key workers and all members of staff that have looked after her.
The management team have been helpful, flexible and supportive in achieving the requirements that we need in respect of childcare hours.
Like any parent, I was dubious and nervous about sending her to nursery but I’m thrilled with how far she has come along and knowing she is happy at Busy Bees, makes all the difference!
I highly recommend the nursery.

My Daughter has attended this nursery since August 2015. Now 2yrs old, she has come on leaps and bounds and has a lovely relationship with all nursery staff. I am kept well updated and communication is brilliant. Nursery settings are safe and well maintained. Meals are specially catered for if needs
be, although my daughter will eat anything and has a very healthy appetite. I can't thank the staff here enough for everything they do for my little Girl. An amazing place and I wouldn't place her anywhere else.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.441)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.441) out of 10 for Busy Bees Telford 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 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 4.872 for Busy Bees Telford is calculated as follows: ( (158 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.872
  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 4.569 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Telford 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 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 = 3.875
    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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.694
  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.
