The free flow access to the outdoor offers a variety of activities where children can make choices, as well as taking risks. There are ample opportunities for children to play and investigate - there is a pirate ship to discover; opportunities for music making as well as an area for planting.

The babies have their own covered play area too. Here they have space to crawl and toddle in a safe environment discovering the world around them using all their senses.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I decided to write a review about Bush Babies in Oadby because my daughter is now 3 and a half and she has been going there since she was 1 years old. She is a very shy girl. The staff at the nursery are very friendly and caring, which shows on my daughter as she loves going there and doing all the
fun activities they do. She talks about what they did each time she goes. They handled her shyness very well and encouraged her to be involved in all the activities.This has helped to build up her confidence with communication.
I also had a lot of support from management. As a working mother, I also study, and thanks to the nursery I am able to carry on. They are very flexible with the days my daughter can come in as long as they get days booked in advance, which is understandable. This is one of their great benefits and I would recommend this nursery to my family and friends. I am very happy with the service and I feel very relaxed when at work as I know she is enjoying herself and is well looked after.

The nursery has been absolutely fantastic with settling my child in and making me feel comfortable. They have been ever so accommodating and are very informative. They have been very professional with the care given and keeping me informed with the progress my child has been making.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.510)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.510) out of 10 for Busy Bees Leicester Oadby 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 3 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 4.972 for Busy Bees Leicester Oadby is calculated as follows: ( (35 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.972

  • 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 3.538 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Leicester Oadby is based on 3 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 = 3.25

    • 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. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.4 = 0.288

  • 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.
