The nursery has been amazing settling my 2 kids after our other nursery closed down.
They was so warming welcoming and proffessional. As NHS workers schedule has been so flexible to fit around the kids which we are so grateful for.
The kids love going to nursery, developing educational skills, social
skills and many more. Inside is very organised for kids and very clean. All the staff are very friendly and works very well with kids. We receive regular feedback on the kids which I appreciate.
Mostly the kids are happy settled and have nothing but good things to say about the staff and other pupils.
Very happy. Management team are very well informative and easy to reach. Very organised.

I just wanted to say a big thank you to the amazing team at purple bee day care , Even though my daughter only attends once a week, we've been so impressed by how much she's learning and picking up. She's been saying new words and doing things that truly surprise us-and it's clear she's happy and engaged
while she's there.


It gives me so much peace of mind to know she's in such a caring, nurturing, and stimulating environment. You've made a big difference in her early development, and we're so grateful for the love and attention you give her.

My child started at Purole Bees over a year ago in toddlers room. She absolutely loved it from day 1 and I couldn't be happier. She started talking(too much now) and became more confident and made lots of friends. The staff was always friendly and looked after her and supported her in the daily activities.
Now
she is attending pre school room and she is very happy there learning new things every day. I am very proud of her and grateful for all the support from the nursery staff.
Thank you

This nursery has done wonders for my daughter who joined in Jan 2025. The teachers especially two in particular are absolutely amazing. The management are fantastic and the whole nursery has a family vibe. Since joining 3 months ago, my daughter has learnt to be fully potty trained and her speech has
developed so much. I am so happy i chose this nursery and purely because of the reviews online as we were new to the area. They upload pics daily which is lovely to see what they have been doing. Soon my youngest daughter will be joining :)

Such a fantastic nursery. Our little one is so happy at Purple Bees. The staff are genuine, welcoming, kind and nurturing to both the children and parents alike!

There are no words to express our love and appreciation for the nursery staff. Each member means each and everyone works sincerely and always with a smile, giving me confidence every day when I leave my baby in their care and when I pick her up in the evening. Preschool teachers are extraordinary individuals
with empathy and compassion, standing in for parents in our absence. Their incredible dedication cannot be adequately thanked.

Purple Bees Day Nursery has been an integral part of our family's life for many years. The teachers are genuinely caring individuals who treat each child with personalised attention and affection. For our daughter, who was initially quite shy, the nurturing environment helped her come out of her shell,
make friends, and develop a love for learning that she carries with her to this day. Our son, a bundle of energy and curiosity, thrived in the stimulating and safe environment the nursery provided. The diverse range of activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor play, and the thoughtfully structured curriculum ensured that he was always engaged and learning.
We highly recommend the nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing, supportive, and enriching environment for their child.
Thank you to all staff for the incredible journey and for being such an integral part of our family's story.

The team at Purple Bees are lovely, kind, and caring. The management team are super friendly and very approachable. My daughter settled into the nursery very quickly and formed some great friendships thanks to the staff in the preschool room. She has also built positive bonds with all the staff there.
Having worked in childcare myself previously for years I had very high expectations but when we visited the nursery we knew it was the place for us.

Our boys have been coming to Purple Bees since May and I can honestly say that this is an exceptional nursery. Not only does it feel like a home from home but the staff genuinely care about the development of each and every child. I consider myself well-read and passionate with regard to early years
development and honestly feel that Purple Bees ticks all boxes. In addition, we love having the up to date minute to minute information about what they are up to in their day. We also love the fantastic nutritious meals. Special thank you to the staff who are investing so much time and love into our babies.

My twins have been going to this nursery since they were 7 months old, so I could return to work. As you can imagine, leaving your children at the nursery when they were at this age could have been something where you needed to be 100 % sure they were in safe hands. Purple Bees Nursery has given me
complete peace of mind, knowing that my babies are getting absolute care, supporting what they need most, and finding happiness through their early years of learning life. I could not thank you enough for the management and the team at Purple Bees Nursery.

My twin babies have been attending Purple Bees Day Nursery since they were one, and I couldn't be any happier with the level of care they have received. The staff are incredible, so supportive and genuinely care about each and every child in their care. They go above and beyond to make sure that everyone
feels valued and included. The manager is always available to answer any questions or concerns I have, and she goes out of her way to make sure that everything runs smoothly. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, and activities are always engaging and stimulating. I'm particularly impressed with the nutritious food that is provided. The meals are always well-balanced and include a variety of healthy options. As a parent, it's comforting to know that my children are in such good hands. They are so looking forward to going to the nursery every morning which is so reassuring. I highly recommend Purple Bees to anyone looking for a caring and supportive environment for their little ones.

My 2-year-old started in February this year. She is always excited when she goes to the nursery. I like the daily update and pictures I get about what my child is doing.

I was looking for a nursery for my second child so I could return to work, and having placed my older child in nursery before, I thought I knew exactly what to expect. Purple Bees surpassed my expectations in so many ways that I hadn't even given thought to. My little one settled pretty much instantly,
the team ensure the children are eating well with backup options in place, sleeping happily even if the usual 'at-home' nuances aren't sticking, and there is plenty of engaging play. The staff are honestly among the loveliest people I have met. I felt blessed to find them at a time when I actually needed support myself as a newly single mother - they did not just act as a simple daycare for my little one, but a genuinely caring support for my family and welcomed us in a way I have never seen a nursery do so before. They have been a godsend in all respects, and I couldn't recommend them enough to anyone who has the slightest worries about their little ones joining their first nursery.

We have two children at Purple Bees and have recommended the nursery to our friends. The staff have been so supportive, especially over the last few years. Both our children are very happy there. Particularly with our eldest, the nursery has gone above and beyond to make sure his needs are met and that
he is supported. Communication from the nursery has always been great and was especially good during the lockdowns. The nursery has a very friendly, family feel to it and we love that some of the same staff members have looked after both of our children.

Purple Bees is the best experience I have ever had. The support you get from all the staff is just amazing. From day one I had no hesitation in leaving my son at the nursery as he has speech delays due to Covid. We were worried about what to do and where we would find the best place for our little one,
but the progress my little one has made in one and a half years has been incredible. From the amazing management to the teachers, every single member of staff at Purple Bees is incredibly friendly and very helpful. The great support we have received from everyone is beyond amazing, I can't put it into words. I am very sad that my son is leaving the nursery this year. The way he has improved in his language communication and social behaviour is just amazing. I can't write enough good things because Purple Bees is like family to us now. I would like to thank all the wonderful staff at Purple Bees from the bottom of my heart. Lots of love.

So sad that it’s almost time to move on to school. My daughter has excelled in such a nurturing, caring and educational environment. She’s been at Purple Bees Day Nursery since baby room. Each room has been amazing and supportive. All staff are dedicated and professional. I would personally like to
thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Management is approachable and accommodating. I can’t recommend this nursery highly enough.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.700)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.700) out of 10 for Purple Bees Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.917 for Purple Bees Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (144 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.917

  • b) 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 4.783 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Purple Bees Day Nursery is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 83 number of registered child places is 16.6. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.6 = 0.783

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
