Busy Bees has brought my daughter forward leaps and bounds. She is well equipped for her time at school and feel that this is down to the advanced learning at nursery. The staff are brilliant, they are so professional and put the children's care and happiness first. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend
them.

Busy Bees is a fantastic nursery and I would recommend it to all my family and friends. One particular male key worker is fabulous and he is brilliant at making the children feel at ease and ready to learn. Some staff by the end of the day do look a little tired and they need a prompt to ask how the
child’s day has been and what the child has been up to. This is only some days but on a whole the team are brilliant. The learning and dynamics of the pre school room is brilliant. The manager keeps the place immaculate and is always making sure everything is organised. Thank you Busy Bees.

My daughter has been attending this nursery for the past 4 years and never wanted to leave. My toddler is also in this nursery and loves it also. Never had any issues whatsoever. All the staff are caring and professional. The manager is friendly, professional and approachable. Love the staff here and

I viewed 9 nurseries before I made my decision; one I did not take lightly. I can honestly say I have not regretted my choice of Busy Bees Bromborough once. She started at 9 months and has settled in really well. She bonded with her key workers as have I; she gives them extra-long hugs. They operate
a stay and play every week which we attended; it helped us both feel comfortable. The room is generous with each age getting their own garden. It's obvious the staff genuinely care
They track progress using an online portal to keep me updated through the day. Their in-house chef was a bonus. I observed a class making their own pizza - learning about the cooking activity; lovely touch afforded by having an in-house kitchen
We are still in the baby room and they follow our schedule. I’m fairly sure some of them are wizards getting my girl napping on schedule. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. In my opinion, her safety, comfort, education and quality of time is paramount. Worth every penny. Happy Baby=Happy Mum

My daughter has been so happy at Busy Bees in Bromborough, and I am sad to have to take her out (only due to circumstance, I would keep her there if possible!) she has progressed so much and I always feel happy and confident leaving her with the lovely, attentive and caring staff every morning. The
food is brilliant, all fresh and healthy meals made from scratch and the facilities are amazing. The outside play area in particular. The level of hygiene with the little ones is also extremely high. I have had a lot of experience with various nurseries from my other child, and would highly recommend this one to any parent looking for childcare. Thank you, everyone, at Busy Bees in Bromborough, we will miss you all so much!

I fell in love with Busy Bees before my daughter even arrived! From each doctors appointment throughout my pregnancy all I could hear were happy noises coming from the children enjoying the outdoors at Busy Bees.
The staff are very friendly, down to earth and approachable. It is clear to see that
they form beautiful bonds with all the children in their care. My daughter is a poor eater and both her key workers in the Baby Room and now Toddler Room are very attentive to her needs. The children have lots of space and equipment to play with and they never appear bored.
I cannot recommend Busy Bees enough!

I cannot rate this nursery highly enough. The staff team are fantastic, nurturing, professional, knowledgeable and really care about the children and work they do.
The environment is child focussed, light, airy and welcoming - although I would like the outdoor area to be bigger but this is due to
limited availability. Food is excellent and there are always alternatives available. Focus on learning and developmental needs of children is excellent.

Both of my boys love Busy Bees, they are really happy there and we never have a problem getting them in in the mornings. The staff are friendly and caring and ensure that the children to get the most out of their nursery experience. They provide a range of activities for the children to gain different
experiences and I feel that my children have made really good progress there.


I have confidence in Busy Bees to keep my children safe and happy and have already recommended them to 2 relatives. The management team are supportive to parents and have always tried to accommodate us with any additional sessions that we might need.

My son has been at Busy Bees nursery since he was 1 and has moved through the different rooms, to pre-school. The one thing that is very consistent is the caring nature of the staff, they clearly love all the kids and the environment is nurturing and structured. Time and effort is made to ensure the
children are developed and it certainly shows. My son has learned valuable life and social skills, which will set him up for school. I trust the staff and know my son is safe. I sometimes feel like there are lots of children in the pre-school room, but I know the room is staffed to the appropriate level to manage this.


The app that is provided for parents an added advantage, allowing me to be updated about activities through his week. I would love to see more pictures though :) I originally chose Busy Bees because of the environment created for the children and the fact the staff were so great with the kids, my instinct was right and I am happy and more importantly so is my son.

Excellent nursery. So welcoming and staff are always prepared to do whatever it takes to make sure that the children are happy and comfortable in the nursery environment. We moved our son from another local nursery, due to some issues that we had. It was certainly the right decision. Our son was experiencing
some anxiety with nursery attendance, due to having an irregular pattern.


We attended the day after raising our concerns. We found the staff had set up an area of the nursery just for our son. It specifically contained all space themed things that made our son so happy. We were so happy with how the nursery helped our son settle back in and put a smile back on his face. Staff are very professional and we know that our son is happy and developing well.

I have twins girls who have both attended this nursery from Jan 2016. One of my twins receives 1:2:1 support as has ASD and is non-verbal. Both my girls have received outstanding care from the very beginning by all the staff members who are thoughtful, caring and professional. I can always approach
staff members for advice and support in regards to my girls and I personally think the nursery definitely deserves the "outstanding" credit it receives. Busy Bees has helped me receive and implement ongoing support from many agencies (ASD, EMIT, SALT, ECT) and we are always reviewing my daughter's plan, making changes if needed and they continue to support me with my daughters ECHP process, which is an emotional thing to go through. Very proud to say my daughters attend this nursery and praise and recognition to be given on a job well done. Thank you!

My child has been coming to Busy Bees since she was 13 months old, we've loved how it feels like a big family and she's always felt comfortable with the staff. We've been very impressed with the innovations brought to the nursery (mud kitchen, languages sessions in French) and we're looking forward
to all the new things for next year!

I feel that my child is treated with genuine kindness and respect by all the staff. I would prefer smaller numbers in rooms but appreciate that staffing levels are adequate and children are split into groups for activities.
I would love more outdoor space and greater range of outdoor activities. Happy
with resources and equipment and that these are used effectively by staff to encourage opportunities for learning and play.
Grateful for good and interesting handover information and that we are kept informed of significant events.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.021)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.021) out of 10 for Busy Bees Bromborough 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 9 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 4.692 for Busy Bees Bromborough is calculated as follows: ( (101 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.692

  • 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 4.329 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Bromborough is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 105 number of registered child places is 21. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 21 = 0.429

  • 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.
