Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely amazing staff, brilliant towards my boys, it’s a brand new pretty nursery, clean, open spaces, communication between staff, children and parents is impeccable I can’t fault anything, my children love it and so do I. I feel like my children are safe and being cared and looked after properly
and don’t have to worry I can call at any time and I know that if they need me they will ring me also.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.734)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.734) out of 10 for Busy Bees Lichfield 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 17 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 4.961 for Busy Bees Lichfield is calculated as follows: ( (196 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.961
  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 4.773 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Lichfield is based on 17 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 110 number of registered child places is 22. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 22 = 0.773
  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.

Hello, I am Jemma the Assistant Centre Director at Busy Bees Lichfield.


I have worked in Childcare for 13 years this has always been such a big passion of mine. I started my career as a level three nursery practitioner this is where I gained a lot of experience working in all age groups from babies up to preschool.


While working and gaining lots of experiences I also went to university to gain more theoretical knowledge and completed a 3-year BA Hons degree in Childhood and Family Hood Studies.


I look forward to welcoming you to our exemplary day nursery!
