The care my little boy has received is everything I wanted plus more. All the carers are so warm and positive every day we are at Busy Bees. I feel confident knowing he is having a great day whilst developing with his class. We're so happy to have found such a great team to look after our precious cargo!
Thank you.

Treetops helped my son transition from a different nursery after a very difficult few months with the pandemic and change in his personal life. The staff really seem to know him and take time to work out what he likes and how he thinks. He told me yesterday he really loves it there!

Our son started at Busy Bees Grove Road in August and I can only say positive things about our experience. The staff are absolutely lovely and he is really well cared for. He can't wait to arrive at nursery in the morning and I can fully relax and concentrate at work knowing he's in safe hands and having
lots of fun.

Excellent nursery tucked away from the street in private. Staff are always very friendly and helpful and really help my child settle and enjoy nursery. This is my second child at nursery, my oldest has just finished and started school and the amount of things he learnt at nursery amazed me. They will
help set them up for school and learning. Cannot recommend this nursery enough, all members of staff are friendly and helpful and know my little one well from the manager to the chef. Love the new parent app they have just implemented that lets me see what my little one is getting up to throughout the day.

Our daughter started here when she was 11 months old and has loved it from day 1. As for everyone, this year has been turbulent and everyone at Treetops Grove, Headingley has given consistency to our little one.
Excellent activities, communication and people. The recent new app is brilliant for seeing
updates on naps, meals and photos of their day.

Our 18-month-old son has loved the nursery from day one. He has fun, formed really nice bonds with the staff, enjoy nutritious meals, and is excited to arrive on site.
I like how it feels like you are dropping him off into a homely, friendly and welcoming environment. I'd highly recommend to any parent.

Treetops Grove is a wonderful nursery.
I have the utmost confidence in leaving my little boy in their care.
Everyone who works there is so lovely and caring towards the children.
They are always trying new activities to keep the kiddies stimulated and they also form really lovely bonds with the children.

Our son has been attending The Treetops Grove for 3 years and we couldn’t be happier. The staff are all lovely and we have seen him blossom especially in the Clever Crocs room, and the garden is amazing.

My little boy loves going to nursery. He jumps in every morning. He loves all his nursery nurses. There are lots of things for the children to do and play with. They always have events going eg. Sports day, Halloween.


The garden is massive with lots of space for children to run around. Lovely nursery,

staff are great. I'm very happy with my choice.

The staff have been very supportive during the transition from one from to another which has been very comforting for my son and they have kept us informed at all times which has put our minds at ease.


Unfortunately, over the last few months, there has been a high member of staff leaving and new

starters. This has sometimes led to staff cooking after our son and they haven't introduced themselves to us. This should be improved.

I feel so at ease dropping my child off at nursery in the baby room. The staff are so friendly and always smiling. She has settled so well in the nursery with support from her keyworker. The rooms are homely, very inviting and stimulating for babies with plenty of opportunities to play, explore and
learn.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.472)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.472) out of 10 for Busy Bees Headingley Grove 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 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 4.944 for Busy Bees Headingley Grove is calculated as follows: ( (34 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.944

  • 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 3.528 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Headingley Grove 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.8 = 0.278

  • 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.
