Such a welcoming feeling and great atmosphere on entering the nursery which I love and my son is very happy at Kindercare. Settled in great.


The staff are always friendly, positive and cheery, all the way from the nursery nurses who look after my son up through to management level and always on hand

to help. Very down to earth and supportive. Thank you to all :-)

The best nursery there is! I believe my daughter has had the best start she ever could of by going to Kindercare Farsley (Treetops!) and she is continuing to grow into the most well mannered, polite and brainy little girl and I have to credit the amazing staff at this nursery for helping her grow into
the incredible little girl she is!
From the moment I viewed this nursery I didn't need to look anywhere else, the staff are absolute treasures and they genuinely care and love every child that walks through the door. The manager could not be more welcoming, friendly and loving and this flows through to all the other brilliant staff. My little girl calls the manager nana she loves her so much!
We have recently moved and we travel a long way every day to get there as I wouldn't even consider my girl going elsewhere for her childcare. I cannot praise the nursery and the staff enough and would recommend the nursery a million times over!

Both my sons have attended Kindercare - Farsley, since they were 9 months old (my eldest, has just left to attend school) and I cannot recommend this nursery and it's staff highly enough. I have always been completely confident that they are getting the highest quality of care and that the staff really
care about their wellbeing. They love going and have developed in leaps and bounds.

My daughter has been attending nursery for one day a week for the last 18 months and she loves it. As soon as she started we noticed big changes in her development and she comes home doing something new each week. The staff are all very friendly and professional.

Our son was at Kindercare - Farsley for 4 years and enjoyed every minute. He made lifelong friends there and still talks about the staff with affection and joy. He participated in lots of activities, including walking to the park, painting, baking, construction and reading to name but a few. Running
around in the outdoor play area is also a real bonus. All of the staff are dedicated and caring.


Our daughter has also been at the nursery since 2015 and has made so many friends. She loves the activities the staff do with her and enjoys getting outside as much as possible. She talks about nursery a lot at home. The nursery have supported her development very well - letting her be independent and supporting her speech/potty training.


We would recommend the nursery to friends and family.

I would highly recommend Kindercare Farsley to friends and family. My son loves going every week. He's come on so much since starting. His talking has really developed as well as his interaction with other children/adults. All the staff are very friendly and welcoming. It was a big decision for me and
my partner whether to put him in a private nursery or not and we know now it was the right one as he loves it!

My little girl is 6 months old and has recently started nursery at Kindercare- Farsley. So far, I have not been disappointed. The staff have been so lovely, welcoming her to the nursery and put us at ease straight away. Even in the short time she has been at Kindercare- Farsley, we have been very impressed
by how well she is looked after there and the care and attention she has been given (the nursery have even helped us with weaning her!). We are very happy that we chose this nursery for our daughter and would definitely recommend it to family and friends.

Since the day I had my first visit In 2013, I knew I had made the right decision for my daughter.
My daughter is now 3yrs old and still loves going to nursery, not to just to see her friends but to see the staff as well.
As a parent, you have to make the decisions for your baby and do what you
think is right and now she's at the age where she can tell me about her day, I know I've made the right choice, especially when she is telling me about a member of staff who gave her a cuddle, what she has done with her friends, showing me her artwork and telling me what it is. Even when she says she hasn't done anything, I just look at her clothes which tell me a different story.

My son absolutely loved his time at Kindercare. The staff made him feel welcome from his first day, which was a big relief for myself and my husband as we had not only moved our son to a new nursery but also to a new home.


Unlike his first nursery, we came to pick up our son at the end of the day

and it took us ages to get him out as he was having so much fun!


The food was of a good variety and very nutritious. They made sure he had his five a day in a variety of ways.


I would highly recommend Kindercare to anyone who is considering the nursery as the staff treat all the children like they are their own. It is a big weight off my mind to know that while I'm at work, my son is not pining for me but having a good day.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.106)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.106) out of 10 for Busy Bees Leeds Farsley is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 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 4.556 for Busy Bees Leeds Farsley is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.556

  • 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 3.55 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Leeds Farsley 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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.3

  • 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.
