Review from Gurdeep K (Mother of Child) published on 5 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery is exceptional. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. They have a great outdoor space and vary the activities each day as well as taking kids out on walks including babies. Provide regular feedback and pictures on my childs time in nursery - this is helpful to see how is settling
and progressing with other children.
The chef provides great meals for the kids of all requirements.
The nursery provides regular stay and play with children which gives parents a chance to see how the child is interacting within their room.
Very happy with the nursery and all staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been really impressed with how well our little girl has been thriving at Busy Bees. With staff support, she has gone from being a fairly shy wee soul to having an absolute blast on her nursery days! The variety of activities is fabulous and staff have been so invested in getting to know her
and this has really helped her confidence grow. Staff are really friendly and professional and so gifted with the children. I also really appreciate how the nursery take any illness outbreaks seriously and are really good at communicating this. The food is amazing too! Offers great variety and healthy choices. Overall we are really thrilled with the Busy Bees and can't wait to see our wee one continue to thrive with them.

Review from A S (Mother of Child) published on 2 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son absolutely loves attending nursery. He is a quieter child and takes time to settle into new environments, but the nursery has nurtured him so beautifully. He has grown into a real social butterfly, confidently interacting with staff across the building and with other children.
He is offered
a wide range of age-appropriate activities every day and spends time outdoors daily. He is clearly engaged in activities he enjoys, which is evident through the regular updates sent home and the artwork he proudly brings back.
A wonderful nursery with truly wonderful, caring staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little girl has attended since beginning of November, from settling in days until now, it is clear to see how wonderful every staff member is. They all know my child so well, and can easily communicate to me about how her day has been and how she has been feeling, what she has ate etc. I always feel
well informed of each day she has. She also has endless opportunities for play, along with some calming time. The staff as a whole are all very nurturing. It is clear to see how they all communicate with each other, the children and the parents.
My daughter was recently unwell, and they were so quick to notice she wasn't herself as they know her so well. Their quick judgement was great. We have had a great experience in the short amount of time she has been attending. We always know, there will be a welcoming face each time we enter. Thanks for being such a great staff team and doing your utmost to care for our children.

Busy Bees Nursery (Lenzie) is a fantastic nursery, staff are always kind caring and compassionate with my children. The food is outstanding and the staff have supported us in getting them eating additional and expanded foods. The learning environment is varied with the use of breakout areas and outdoor
space. Reading is actively encouraged and part of their routine. I can't recommend the nursery more highly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I must start by saying a massive thank you to all the staff for all the work they do, they are amazing and are always supportive. My 3 year old has loved coming to nursery since starting here. The whole experience has been amazing, he loves the routines, he always talks about his day and what he has
done. The meals are very good and healthy, he always eats them and has never really said he doesn't like anything. The app that the staff use to update the childs day is really good it lets you see what your child has been doing and what they have ate ect. Any observations of your child are put up on the app and the room they are in always do a weekly update with what has been going on in the room. The nursery itself is very well maintained and the rooms are always stocked well with resources for the children to play with. The garden is a hit with my child he loves being outside on the bikes. I love the layout of the room which means the children have outdoor access as much as they want.

Our little one started Busy Bees in February and has settled in so well.
The staff are very attentive and approachable. They have taken the time to really get to know her & show a genuine interest in her development. Every member of staff you encounter is friendly and, from admin team to the domestic
staff, they all know my Daughter by name, which is really lovely.
The nursery itself is really clean and modern. It appears well equipped for the needs of the children and I love that the outside space is put to such good use too.
The nursery has exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend!

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.244)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.244) out of 10 for Busy Bees Glasgow Lenzie 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 9 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 4.981 for Busy Bees Glasgow Lenzie is calculated as follows: ( (106 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.981
  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 4.263 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Glasgow Lenzie is based on 9 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 = 3.7
    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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.563
  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.
