The five children who left the nursery and joined the same school as my daughter are doing well
My little boy enjoys the nursery and it is obvious the staff care about the children, and the children think of the adults as friends.

The staff and managers are exceptional, so friendly and generally very happy people. They are incredibly attentive and professional and have many long-standing
All meals are prepared and cooked freshly on site, and are nutritious and healthy; The cook has catered to my daughter's food allergies seamlessly.
All the staff who care for my daughter treat her as an individual, encouraging her to develop her own personality and interests, and they look after her with such warmth and attention.
I cannot recommend Mardley Hill Busy Bees highly enough. This nursery, in addition to being 'outstanding' in all the way you would expect, is also a rare gem.
It is hard to put into words how grateful we are as parents for the support, care and welcome the nursery has shown to our daughter and also to us.

The nursery manager shows great leadership and ensures that every member of team upholds the nursery values. The children do a wide range of activities as they progress through the nursery. Once they reach pre-school academy (around 3 years old) they can do French, multi-sports. A company specialising in teaching children about the environment and wildlife comes to the nursery regularly and brings small creatures (frogs, insects, etc) for children to see. Over the last five years, the nursery became like a family to us.

Everyone is so friendly and they do everything possible to make our child feel at home (which she does). The nursery has a very homely, relaxed feel which others we visited did not. Our child has grown in confidence and developed amazingly in the 6 months she has been there. Certainly the best nursery around and deserves a 10/10 rating!

They use an app to keep parents up to date with how your child is doing over the course of the day - everything
The baby room staff are amazing and having just moved up to the middle room, the transition has been handled really well. She got to know all of the staff across the rooms right from the off and they all know her and say hello when they see her. The staff are equally good with us as parents, discussing any observations, always taking time to just say hi and a quick chat, and running lots of shared parent / child events to make sure they get to know you as well as the child (I don't know how they fit all of the Christmas events in!)

The Review Score of 10 (9.982) out of 10 for Busy Bees Mardley Hill is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.982 for Busy Bees Mardley Hill is calculated as follows: ( (165 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.982
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 Mardley Hill is based on 14 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 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 14 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.
