Busy Bees Cheadle Kingsway have an enthusiastic team that strive to provide the best care for your child. With an abundance of well organised, fantastic activities and resources, your child will have endless opportunities to learn and explore throughout their stay at nursery.

There are light and airy rooms tailored to support each age group and development stage to ensure that every child has the absolute best start in life. With a warm and welcoming team, your child will settle into the nursery and develop at their own pace.

To provide the best care and development for your little one, the experienced team support with reading, counting, fine motor skills, and provide delicious and nutritious balanced meals throughout the day which caters for individual dietary requirements.

Communication is key at Busy Bees, therefore they want to ensure that all parents are kept in the loop with what their little one is getting up to, as well as their overall growth and development within the setting. By using the Parent Zone app, your child’s key person will provide regular written and photo updates, allowing you to stay connected and see how much your child is enjoying their time at nursery.

Busy Bees understand that family life can often be unpredictable, therefore with the ‘Pebble’ app it will enable you to book extra ad-hoc sessions at the nursery via an online booking platform.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My boys have settled so well into nursery life. The girls have been amazing and always at the end of the phone. I love getting notifications on the parent zone app to tell me what they have been up to and so easy for me to add my own input. I can't thank the staff enough for all the love and care they
give my boys. They eat so well which has been such a help for me to get them to try new things.

I am so happy with how my child has settled into nursery as she is very used to being with me so I was I little apprehensive. The management and staff have been so welcoming to us both and made me feel more confident in going back to work.
The quality of care has been brilliant and I love getting
the updates of what’s she’s done at the end of the day.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We are extremely happy with the standards and quality of the nursery. Our daughter enjoys her time spent there. The staff are very friendly and approachable and provide an excellent service. I feel my child is very safe and her needs are met. My only suggestion is more outdoor play and learning even
when the weather is bad as I believe this is very important for their health and development.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter absolutely loves going to nursery and we are constantly amazed by the things they learn whilst there.
I think the relationship the staff have with the children is fantastic and it makes it so much easier as a parent to know that they are somewhere they enjoy and are being well looked after.
I also believe they are given great opportunities and experiences eg painting, activities, outside play and even Spanish. Our manager is great and is always understanding and accommodating.

Over the moon with how my son is cared for by the staff at Cheadle Kingsway nursery. He is always happy to be left because he is greeted with a smile and a cuddle each time. The room is always set up with different toys in all the areas of the room. I love the parent zone so I can see different things
he gets up to and read the different observations the staff do on his development.

Review from James O (Father of Child) published on 5 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have had two children at Busy Bees Cheadle through from age 1 to school age, and they have both found it to be an excellent nursery and loved their time there. The staff are really enthusiastic but also caring and take the time to get to know each child individually. Parents are really involved and
there are lots of opportunities for feedback in both directions. My children love it there and have made lots of friends which they have taken forward into their school years. A great nursery and we really recommend it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I thought I'd be stressed about choosing a nursery but Busy Bees in Cheadle Kingsway proved me wrong. From the first viewing, it was clear our baby would be welcomed into an organisation that feels like it's owned and run by the team but benefits from the professional training and policies of a larger
chain. Couldn't be happier!

Our son has really enjoyed his time at Busy Bees Cheadle Kingsway. The staff are always friendly and helpful and we are happy with his development and the activities available. He is always happy to be dropped off and misses nursery when he isn't there!

Busy Bees is a great nursery. All the staff are warm and welcoming and they are all very knowledgeable about child care. My children love nursery and come home exhausted from everything they've done.
I love knowing that they are spending their time learning and discovering, expanding being around other
children and eating excellent food.

I cannot fault the care my daughter received at Busy Bees. She is always happy and excited to go in and the staff always have a smile and a warm welcome.
She is kept busy with a variety of activities and always encouraged to try new things.
I have total confidence in the standard of care she is
given.

My son has been at this nursery since he was 10 months old. All his key workers have been constant and we both have had a great relationship with them.
My son is now in pre-school and he is a lovely well-rounded boy and some of that credit has to go to the girls that have worked with him and made him
the boy he has become.

The staff that work at the nursery have helped my daughter a lot as she is referred to SALT. The have done a lot with her to make her come on like she has and her speech is now really good. They are friendly and approachable. My daughter enjoys coming to nursery and even asks at the weekend. They have
very good relationships with my daughter and make her feel welcome and include her in all activities.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.806)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.806) out of 10 for Busy Bees Cheadle Kingsway 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 5 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 4.933 for Busy Bees Cheadle Kingsway is calculated as follows: ( (56 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.933
  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 3.873 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Cheadle Kingsway is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 67 number of registered child places is 13.4. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.4 = 0.373
  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.
