My daughter enjoys going to Treetops, she is always happy and really likes two ladies in her room, which makes me feel comfortable leaving her! I have every faith in the current management team at the nursery- She is very approachable and i'd imagine very inspiring to her team.

I have become increasingly anxious that my daughter still was not walking by Christmas, unlike her sister the year before. The reassurance and care that I have received for the Bear Cub room has been second to none. They have assured me time and time again she is meeting her targets and not to worry.
Their updates as to how she is doing are regular and informative. Finally the encouragement and confidence building they work hard at day in day out means she is there and all of us couldn't be happier. All staff in the room are excellent but I would like to say a special thank you to the trainee and an extra special thank you to the baby room leader. She is one of the most amazing, professional young woman I have met in quite some time.

Our son started nursery at seven months old and settled in from day one. He bonded with his key worker immediately and now at 13 months will walk to her with his arms open and a smile on his face, for a cuddle. It was made very clear to us who his key worker is and she clearly knows the infants in her
care and what they enjoy doing and she makes every effort to ensure that they learn through play in a stimulating yet calm environment. When I chose to return to work full time, I was comforted to know that our son felt secure and happy. This was due, in part, to a very informative, yet relaxed parents evening that cemented our belief that this an excellent place for any child to be cared for.

Current Review Score: 7.7 (7.741)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.7 (7.741) out of 10 for Busy Bees Gloucester is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 4.667 for Busy Bees Gloucester is calculated as follows: ( (9 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.667

  • 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 3.074 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Gloucester is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 68 number of registered child places is 13.6. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.6 = 0.074

  • 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.
