We love Busy Bees, Castle View so much! All of the staff genuinely care about our son and he looks forward to his days there. He learns so much and has the opportunity to take part in a good variety of activities indoors and outdoors. The updates on the app put in by staff are regular and informative
which helps with peace of mind. We enjoy the extra activities planned around the seasons for the whole family to engage in. We are really glad we chose Busy Bees and a big thank you to everyone there.

This nursery is a place where you can feel 100% comfortable as you know your child is in the best care. They do so much with children to develop ready for primary school, giving them as always the best start in life and that is what Busy Bees are all about. Keeping children at the heart of what they
do. The. relationships the children build are great and even our daughter comes home talking about the teachers, which is great as it shows they enjoy nursery and creating memories and it will be sad to leave this year. Starting school in August I know she will be fine as Busy Bees has set her up for a good start.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since our daughter started at this nursery, due to a house move last year, she has settled extremely well. The nursery has made our daughter and ourselves feel at ease and we are confident that she is being looked after with great care and given the best start possible. All the staff are friendly, not
just the ones dealing directly with our daughter.
The nursery itself is laid out extremely well and even though each of the age groups has a separate room, it has a very open feel about it. The manager's office is in the main foyer and the door is always open, so you feel welcome to speak with the manager/office staff, either in relation to something with the nursery or even just to say hello.
The outside area is fantastic with lots of space for the children to explore. There is also an enclosed secret woodland area, which our daughter loves going into as well.
Our daughter comes home happy, so we are happy.
We would definitely recommend this nursery.

My two boys love going to Busy Bees, Castleview. It makes me so happy seeing how much fun they’ve had when I pick up and how much they’ve learned! There’s a good balance between indoor and outdoor activity and there are some really creative learnings. The ladies there are really friendly, communicative

My son has been going to Busy Bees for 18 months, and they are a brilliant childcare provider. In particular, I have noticed lots of new things he's learned from nursery - language, songs, dances, and social skills, they offer a great range of activities, and it's very obvious that he enjoys his time
there and feels secure and safe. The staff are friendly and informative and always have time to discuss any queries/needs you have as a (sometimes anxious!) parent. The nursery management is very slick, and the inclusion of family days and social events has been brilliant since the lockdown restrictions have eased - it's been brilliant to meet others and see my son so happy in his room. In terms of the 'technical' stuff, Busy Bees are brilliant for risk assessment, administering medication and communication, and the food/nutrition is second to none. Since my son's been able to talk, he's expressed happiness at going to Busy Bees and now says he "loves" it! Would highly recommend it to others.

My son has been at Busy Bees Castle View since I returned to work after maternity leave. The nursery is so inviting and the outside space the kids have is amazing. All the staff are so lovely and nothing is too much trouble for them. Communication is fab and I feel at ease knowing my boy is well cared
for whilst I work. He will be starting his funding hours soon at Castle View, couldn't imagine sending him anywhere else.

My son has been going to Busy Bees now for almost two years, and he loves it! He loves going there and talks about it when at home. The staff are amazing and very helpful. They are good and keeping you updated with the goings on and always give me an update when I pick my son up. He is always talking

My son has been at Busy Bees since he was a wee baby. He has progressed through each room and stage as such a happy and confident child, completely supported by the wonderful staff. This preschool year had been his most challenging with new emotions and learning and the 1 on 1 support has been brilliant.
He is treated as an individual and is allowed to flourish as a result. I would highly recommend Busy Bees Castle View and all the staff.

Busy Bees has been incredible for our son. My 3-year-old boy has attended the nursery since he was 1 and has continuously been supported with his development milestones in the best way by the most wonderful team. He thoroughly enjoys attending nursery and speaks highly of the staff regularly. He's made
such a strong bond with them which gives us peace of mind whilst we work and faith that he is being encouraged to try different activities that support his learning. He's encouraged to try different foods and learn about various cultures which we love as it can be a challenge trying to get him to eat a wide range of foods at home and we want him to be respectful of others' beliefs growing up. Our families' beliefs are also 100% respected at Busy Bees. Our son is being supported with a star chart that we also use at home to help him focus on achieving certain goals each day. The result of this has been phenomenal. The daily updates are great through the app too. 10/10 all around.

I am delighted with the care my little girl, who attends Busy Bees, Castle View receives. Due to lockdowns, she did have some separation issues when she first started, but she is now enjoying going to nursery and I get the impression that the staff members are amazing with her and really genuinely care.
She loves telling us about her little friends and she has grown hugely in confidence which is amazing to see. The meals provided by the nursery are amazing, even if my little one is still rather fussy! I know the staff really try to encourage her to try things and make sure she doesn’t go hungry if she doesn’t want what’s on the menu that day. I love that the app gets updated throughout the day, so I can see what she is up to and staff are great at updating my partner when he collects her, who can then update me! So happy I enrolled my daughter at Castle View.

Our two and a half-year-old daughter used to attend a different nursery, but after we moved house we decided to enrol her in Castle View, as it is closest to where we live now. We were a bit apprehensive that she might find it difficult to adjust and get used to the new setting and people, but it turned
out we had nothing to worry about. When we pick her up she always has a smile on her face and is excited to tell us what she's been up to, whereas at the old nursery she would often run towards us crying, just wanting to go back home, plus she goes in, in the morning without a fuss, which never happened at the old nursery. All the staff we have come across are lovely, always friendly at drop off and happy to have a chat at pick up and tell us about what our daughter has been up to. That's in addition to the updates we get through the app, like what she ate, when she had her nappy changed and occasional photos. Our daughter is happy and so are we.

My son has been attending Busy Bees Castle View Nursery for the last 2.5 years. The staff are friendly, energetic and work continuously to ensure the children are gaining the right experiences and skills for life. A recent virtual parents evening with my son's key worker was thorough and informative
and the app keeps me up to date on a day to day basis with how my son is developing and areas to continue to develop or supplement at home. Most of all, I will never forget the support this nursery gave me during the pandemic, maintaining my son's routines and enabling me to keep working on the frontline.

My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 11 months old and is now a few months away from starting school. She has loved her time here and has learned lots of new skills and made so many friends. It has helped her become very confident and sociable, which I am sure will make her transition
to school so much easier. The ladies at the nursery are all amazing with the children and really build a bond with them, meaning she always looks forward to going in, each morning. There is always a range of fun activities for the children to do each day and it is great being kept up to date via the app with comments and pictures of how they are getting on and what they are working on.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.526)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.526) out of 10 for Busy Bees Castle View 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 14 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 4.976 for Busy Bees Castle View is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.976
  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 4.55 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Castle View is based on 14 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 = 3.85
    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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.7
  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.
