I have been incredibly impressed by this nursery since my baby daughter started here this month. They have been wonderful at helping my 12 month old daughter settle here and have put me completely at ease too - I was obviously very apprehensive about leaving her as I returned to work, but they have
gone out of their way to make it a smooth a transition as possible. My daughters key worker has been really amazing at settling her in - she has made a lovely connection with her already and must have the patience of a saint ?? she's been great at making sure there have been plenty of activities and distractions for my daughter at this delicate time. All staff members are really friendly and approachable. I Would definitely recommend this nursery - I cannot fault it at all.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.348)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.348) out of 10 for Busy Bees London Mottingham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.348 for Busy Bees London Mottingham is calculated as follows: ( (116 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 201 Ratings = 4.348

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees London Mottingham is based on 16 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 69 number of registered child places is 13.8, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
