My daughter has attended this nursery since 2013. In the past four years, we've never had any problems. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds here, basic maths, phonics and writing her name, letters and numbers, the staff have really prepared her to start at school. I couldn't ask for more, all the
staff are lovely, friendly and chatty, always willing to help. Great variety of meals, clean environment, with a great varied outside space for each age range. The extended opening hours are really convenient for extra early drop offs or late pick ups. I don't have a bad word to say, couldn't ask for more.

My daughter has really enjoyed her time here and I am pleased with the care she has received. Having been to two nurseries previously having had issues with her safety and care, it was a relief to finally settle her into an establishment we trust.
Thank you!

We could not be happier with the standard of care given at Busy Bees - our daughter has attended since the age of 11 months and has developed into an outgoing, confident 4-year-old. She comes home every day with another exciting tale of the day's activities.
The meals provided have been varied and
according to our daughter most delicious! As she now prepares to move on to starting school, we feel confident that the staff at Busy Bees have given her the best possible grounding ahead of this big change.

My daughter has been at Busy Bees for two and a half years. There have been many days where I have gone to pick her up and been told by her to come back later as she's having so much fun she doesn't want to leave.
In September she goes to school and will leave with some very happy memories of the
lovely staff, the brilliant outside space and some wonderful friends.

I am very happy with the care and safety of my daughter in this nursery. My son attended here and I knew this was the best place for my daughter as well. I do not have enough words to recommend the nursery. The staff are very polite, friendly and provide a very warm environment for the children. I love
the fact that they do not use electronics and always doing a lot of arts and crafts with the children, as well as a lot of other activities. They offer a diverse menu and they have all the meals cooked from scratch on their premises.

My daughter joined this nursery in Nov 2016 when she was 26 months old. The staff are extremely helpful and they have given their best to help my daughter to settle in. The nursery is extremely clean, especially the toilets for the children. Highly recommended it to my friends and family.

Amazing nursery. Professional, caring staff who are always willing to go the 'extra mile' to help out.
Great setting and resources which are used well to encourage learning and independence, ready for big school. Can't praise or recommend enough.

My daughter has settled so well at Busy Bees Leytonstone, this is down to her lovely key person and the other staff in the room. She is so happy and leaving her has been made so much easier for both of us. I was dreading leaving my baby girl but seeing her happily playing and most importantly bonding
well with her key person has made my days so much easier, knowing she is happy and in great hands, I couldn't ask for any more.


Thank you to all the wonderful staff for making this transition an enjoyable one.

Our daughter started in the baby room in October at the age of 9 months. She settled in quickly down to the incredibly caring and knowledgeable staff. Her key worker is excellent and they keep us up to date on her development. Everyone in the nursery is extremely friendly and caring. The meals are varied
and well prepared and our baby is incredibly sociable due to the whole experience.

Busy Bees at Leytonstone is very good. I find the staff to be very kind, supportive and helpful. My daughter has attended the nursery since September 2016 and she loves it very much. She can't wait for her next day at nursery and talks often about her teachers and staff at home. They are always friendly
and offer good advice and a clean, colourful child-friendly environment.

I am happy with the nursery and staff. My child is being looked well after, she enjoys coming to nursery most days and learns new things every day. She has made great bonds with staff, especially key people in all the rooms she's been in from starting in the baby room. She still needs to work on building
friendships with her peers but loves copying what adults do and I am grateful to all staff who are involved in my child's development.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.142)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.142) out of 10 for Busy Bees Leytonstone 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 2 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 Busy Bees Leytonstone is calculated as follows: ( (22 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 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 3.225 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Leytonstone is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.1

  • 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.
