We would give The Hunny Bee more than five stars if we could thanks to their amazing staff. Our daughter has been going to this nursery for seven months and we couldn't be happier with everything they do. The staff are all so friendly and kind and helped her settle in very quickly and she loves going.
The rooms are so well set up, as is the outside space. They do lots of different developmental activities with the children, their communication is excellent, it's always clean, and the team go over with fabulous seasonal activities and decorations to make things extra special. We would highly recommend The Hunny Bee.

Absolutely and genuinely first-class. The team are very gentle and kind, they made our baby's start to nursery such a positive experience. We feel confident to leave our son with them and reassured that he is getting the best care in terms of nurturing, mental stimulation, diet and personal care. Each
room has lovely facilities, the staff seem to take real pride in ensuring they offer the best for the children. The environment is always clean. They offer lots of activities for the children which rotate daily with story times, rhyme times etc. so plenty of variety and always something to stretch their minds and encourage new interests. Our son has learned lots in the couple of months since starting at Hunny Bee which I'm sure is testimony to the dedication of the team. It's made my transition back to work after maternity leave a smooth one. Would definitely recommend Hunny Bee Nursery.

My eldest has been attending for the past 3 years since she was 8 months old, and my youngest has recently started at 10 months old. They both love attending The Hunny Bee. The staff are caring and parents are kept well informed. My eldest always comes home full of stories of the exciting things she's
done and I feel the nursery is preparing her well for school. Highly recommended!

Our daughter has been going to The Hunny Bee since 2022 and she loves it! The energetic staff make it a warm, caring and fun place to be with great safeguarding and age-appropriate learning that's done wonders for our child's development and self-confidence. I can't say enough good things.

Absolutely brilliant nursery. My son has been at Hunny Bee for 2 years and my daughter joined just over a year ago at 7 months old, so we have experience in all rooms! They've been excellent throughout. I'm constantly amazed by how much they learn and how well cared for they are. All the staff in the
nursery know them, even those in different rooms. It feels like one big family. When we viewed, the physical space was smaller than other nurseries, so glad this didn't put us off as they really make the most of the room they have. They also vary the activities so much that there's always something new to do! For full-time children, there is flexibility on drop off and pick up time which makes it ideal for working parents. Highly recommend.

Me and my girls love this nursery I couldn’t recommend it enough! My daughter didn’t want to leave Bumble Bee’s but when she did transition up to pre-school, all the staff made a huge effort to help her settle and bond with her. She always leaves nursery excited telling me what she’s been doing.
Both
the girls have been provided lots of opportunities as well, they’ve been taught how to ride balance bikes, scooters, play golf, learn yoga and cooking.
I get pictures of my girls playing in activities daily and monthly observations of the goals they are working towards or achieved. It makes me so proud to see how much they’re achieving as they’re growing! The staff also send lots of handy tips for what I can do to support their development further at home.
At handovers, I can really tell they’ve genuinely spent some quality time and know my children, as they give me little snippets of their day or what they’ve been up to.
If I could put more stars I would, I would highly recommend!

The Hunny Bee Day Nursery has been a great place for my nephew and niece to flourish and strive to be the best children they can be. The staff have developed them too by the best young people they can be and give them the best start in life for the future.

Love the nursery and my little man has come on so much. I was very impressed at Christmas with the events that were organised making Christmas such a magical time. I was a nervous first-time parent but the management team walked me through everything about the nursery and the girls in the room made
me feel at ease. My little boy is quite a fussy eater but the nursery has encouraged him to try new foods which I am very grateful for. Thank you, Hunny Bee!

My little boy has been attending The Hunny Bee day nursery since the start of the year. The care the staff give to the children is evident through the handovers I receive about my child's day and the smile my little boy has on his face when he see's them. The staff involve me in all of his development,
sending home ideas how we can support him. Recently we attended a sports day event the staff and children had put on, the organisation of the day was fantastic with all children of all ages taking part in the races. I would like to thank you all for all the hard work you put into my child and the nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.100)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.100) out of 10 for The Hunny Bee Day Nursery 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 6 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 5.000 for The Hunny Bee Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (72 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 5

  • 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 4.1 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Hunny Bee Day Nursery is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 60 number of registered child places is 12. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.5

  • 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.
