My daughter has been through a number of rooms in the last 18 months and all the staff have been excellent. She loves going and has made lots of friends. The garden has recently been landscaped with imitation grass for the children to run around on, a lot safer than the previous tarmac!
The food is
all freshly prepared, sometimes a little 'exotic' for my daughters taste and occasionally the portions are a little small, but that is obviously difficult to judge, and 'seconds' are given if there is enough to go round. All in all an excellent nursery.

I am very pleased with my son's progress. From starting at this nursery he has developed dramatically and is still excelling, could not praise the staff more. The facilities are very clean and the activities the children do are of a large variety. Could not have picked a better nursery to send my son
to.

My daughter attended this nursery 8 years ago and now my 1-year-old son is attending... I never had any problems with the nursery first time round which prompted me to go back to them...my daughter loved it there and all the staff are all amazing. I highly recommend this nursery.

As a mother of two boys who currently attend Tibbi Tots Southport, I would just like to say how wonderful this nursery is, from the Staff to the facilities. From day one, both of the boys have settled completely into life at Tibbi Tots and are becoming confident, extremely happy and articulate little
men. The staff are a pleasure to deal with and are always able to answer your questions, whatever the subject. The food at this nursery is brilliant and as a parent, I've had no trouble at meal times with the boys and are able to take them to any restaurant or social occasion, in part, I feel due to Tibbi Tots. Would just like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you, to you all and it'll be a sad day in 2017 when my first child leaves for school.

Tibbi Tots nursery staff are wonderful. From day one, they have been so open, caring and helpful. They genuinely care about our son. When I first experienced this for myself, I was so touched by how much our son's happiness and welfare mattered to them. We have seen our little boy change and grow so
rapidly in a short space of time. His development has been accelerated because of the nurturing environment he is in every day, and we have the nursery staff to thank for playing a major part in this.

I love this nursery! the main thing for me is staff - incredible professionals, children love them and I feel safe leaving my little girl in their hands. The place itself has a wonderful atmosphere, lots of toys, different activities and giggles around. Staff are so helpful, with everything, with every
single bit and very thoughtful. And another (key element for me) - chef My daughter has freshly cooked meals, a variety of fruits and vegetables and eats all of it!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.739)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.739) out of 10 for Busy Bees Southport 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 15 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 4.906 for Busy Bees Southport is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.906

  • 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 4.833 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Southport is based on 15 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 90 number of registered child places is 18. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.833

  • 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.
