I have always had a good experience they have helped me with potty training my daughter doing a chart like we do at home.
She loves coming to nursery. I am always happy with her progress at the nursery. Everyone is easy to talk to and approachable.

We chose Busy Bees after visiting several nurseries in the area. From the outset, we felt welcomed and at ease with the idea of our daughter attending this nursery. The staff are very friendly and remember us by name from the start. They clearly care for the children there and so an excellent job. The
meal options provided are fantastic and my daughter's eating skills have really come on.


Overall, I would recommend this nursery and the lovely, friendly staff who work there.

The staff are very friendly and welcoming.
They all know their stuff and fill you with confidence as a parent.
Parents - your kids will return home very mucky - but that's the sign of a good day!
Our daughter has come on leaps and bounds with her speech and ability to play nicely with other children.

All of the staff at Busy Bees are warm and welcoming. Our son has come on leaps and bounds since starting with Busy Bees at Rugby. We really enjoy seeing all the activities he gets up to. The key workers and buddies take a genuine interest in his likes and dislikes and are always on hand to give advise
or listen to any of our issues or concerns.

The staff are friendly and welcoming. They have built a fantastic caring relationship with my son. He was encouraged to gain and improve confidence throughout the years. He has grown to be kind and caring and I believe that it is partly because of the interaction and support he received from Busy Bees
Rugby.

My son loves it here. You can tell the staff really enjoy working with the children and they always have time to chat to you about how your child's day has been. My son's key worker is so lovely and I can tell he has a lovely bond with her. I would love more photo's of my son during his time at nursery
e.g playtime and painting etc.

My son has been part of the Busy Bees family for 2 and a half years and he loves it. He asks to go to school at the weekends. He is a very active child and needs the stimulation. He has learnt a lot being in the nursery environment. The ladies are lovely and they will be greatly missed when he starts
school in September.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.928)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.928) out of 10 for Busy Bees Rugby 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.928 for Busy Bees Rugby is calculated as follows: ( (245 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 264 Ratings = 4.928

  • 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 Rugby is based on 22 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 84 number of registered child places is 16.8, which has been reached with 22 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.
