My son joined Treetops at 7 months (March 2018) and absolutely loves it there! I am so happy, he practically settled straight away and every morning is so happy to be there, he shows this with the biggest grin as we walk towards the building. I have been impressed with all the staff, such a lovely,
warm, caring bunch of people. The general vibe of the nursery is a little tight-knit family and for me as a mother returning to work with that feeling of my child is happy and safe is priceless!

My son loves going to nursery.
He enjoys a lot of activities like messy play, sensory play and outdoor play in their garden.
All the staff are very friendly and professional.
Their child care and efforts to understand and communicate with each child are outstanding and much better than we expected.
Thanks
to their continuous encouragement he has been getting more confidence and learning English, which he didn't know at all at the beginning.
Their summative record we get in the parent evening is so excellent that we understand how much they care for the children.

I am very happy with the quality of care that my son receives. He is happy at the nursery and staff genuinely care for the children. I would like to see more extra-curricular activities taking place and outings occur.

My son was 11 months old when she started at Treetops nursery. As first time mother I was very nervous leaving him behind but the staff at nursery were reassuring and they were very understanding. As they encouraged me to bring him a couple of times. The staff are very supportive and the most important
thing was seeing my son very happy it's a weight off my shoulders. At Treetops nursery it feels like home from home. The staff are very caring and my son is well looked after.

Our 11 month old son started the nursery in November. As a first time mother I was very nervous about leaving him for the first time. The manager and staff were extremely accommodating, flexible and understanding, allowing him to settle in at his own pace. He is gradually gaining more confidence
and the staff are very supportive, continually making suggestions regarding his well-being and to help him enjoy his time there. The small size allows it to be very personal and he has bonded well with his key workers.

My 5 month old baby is just starting here and so far I have been extremely happy with the experience. Over the last month, I've been encouraged to bring my baby in a couple of times a week and stay with her to get her used to the space, staff and other children. The staff have been extremely helpful
and accommodating and have even sourced new items to suit my baby's needs. The nursery is clean, nicely renovated and feels very cosy and intimate. Most importantly to me, the children all seem happy, friendly and well cared for. It has made the very difficult experience of leaving my baby in someone else's care better than I could have hoped for.

Our son has been extremely happy at Treetops Day Nursery Ealing Common. The staff are caring, helpful and very patient. They provide wonderful care and many fun activities. The staff are dedicated and work extremely hard. Our son has learnt so much, especially in pre-school with the present senior teacher
there. She is dedicated, warm, friendly and has taught our son so many wonderful songs which are fun as well as educational. She has transformed the nursery with wonderful artwork and encourage children to be independent as well as caring for each other. I wish we were able to stay another year as I'm sure our son would learn so much more. Treetops Day Nursery Ealing Common is a wonderful, small nursery where all parents know each other and the children know each other very well. Thank you for looking after us for all these years. Very sad to say goodbye to a lovely secure environment.

My daughters both attend this nursery and I am very happy with it. My eldest daughter has been there since she was 11 months and is just about to start school. My other daughter will be there for another two years. It is a small, cosy and friendly nursery and my girls have been well looked after and
cared for since they began. The staff, who are always good humoured and affectionate, provide a nurturing and warm environment and I feel confident leaving my children there for a full day three mornings a week. Their days are filled with varied and interesting activities, the food is healthy and the general ethos is a caring one.

My child has been attending Happy Child in Ealing Common for the past year and he is loving it!! I have been very happy with the care they provide and the staff team is great. When he was settling in the staff were caring and understanding and it made it a lot easier for me to leave him. Now when I
come to take him home in the evenings he does not want to leave.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.685)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.685) out of 10 for Busy Bees Ealing Common 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.885 for Busy Bees Ealing Common is calculated as follows: ( (86 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.885

  • 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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Ealing Common is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 39 number of registered child places is 7.8, which has been reached with 8 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.
