The staff in the nursery are lovely and my son feels very welcome and is extremely settled.
Any queries are dealt with fast and sufficiently. The outdoor areas need looking at and more resources available (especially the big garden). The menu is a little adventurous for children, my child never seems
to eat much.

My child is in the baby room and I have been very impressed with the staff. They are kind, patient and friendly. There is a good routine established, including settling my son to nap regularly (which is no mean feat!) I like the fact they do a variety of activities even though they are young. I was
pleased with my clay mother's day present. Also, the staff give full and detailed feedback every day, both verbal and written.

Over the last 3 years, I feel the nursery has gone from strength to strength. The current management team are the best yet and the overall level of care, compassion, expertise and professionalism among the staff is excellent.
My son absolutely loves going to nursery and I absolutely love sending him
there.

My son has been very happy at Treetops Grove since he started there aged 11 months. I love the friendly, intimate environment of the nursery. The staff are all lovely and I have total confidence that my son is cared for by people I trust. I also love the huge garden and the large amounts of time the
children spend outdoors.

My son attends the Monkey room. He settles lovely every morning and I have no problems leaving him. The staff in the room are great and extremely friendly. The nursery provides a lovely, caring environment which is colourful and very inviting. The nursery provides lots of activities to involve families
and the management are very approachable. All in all, a very nice nursery with lovely staff.

Treetops has been fantastic from day one. Our daughter quickly settled at the nursery after being supported by caring staff who paid close attention to what helped reassure her and quickly built her confidence. The daily reports and opportunity to talk to the staff ensure you have a full picture of
what has happened each day. The opportunity to attend "parents evenings" also allows us to reflect on each child's development and was reassuring for us. I had my reservations about sending her to nursery but our daughter has been so happy and the expense so positive I would happily recommend Grove to anyone. Their staff are a credit to them.

My daughter has been attending Treetops Grove Nursery for over 2 years since she first started in the Bear Cubs room. I have been extremely impressed by the quality of care and range of activities on offer across each age group room she has been in. My daughter loves this nursery and all the staff,
so I always feel reassured she will be looked after and have a fun day when I drop her off each morning. The facilities are great, with a wide range of games, toys and learning for both indoor and outdoor play. My daughter attends full time and has really developed socially as well as learning self-feeding and hygiene skills. I wouldn't be able to offer my daughter the range of stimulation, learning and fun I know she enjoys each day; therefore Treetops Grove Nursery has been invaluable, allowing me to continue working, secure in the knowledge that my daughter is safe and happy.

My children have all loved going to Treetops Grove Nursery . The staff are all very welcoming and helpful and they have a good relationship with their key children this makes the morning drop of a breeze. There is a large garden for the children to play in and explore. I also like how as parents we
are encouraged to get involved. We attended sports day in the summer and it was lovely to see the children having fun.

My son has been attending Treetops Grove Nursery since he was 8 months old and has always been looked after very well by the staff here. The staff are great at communicating with parents so you always feel informed about what your child has been up to. More recently he has really gained in confidence
as he has progressed through the rooms and achieved more milestones. He now runs into nursery, is happy to see his friends and key staff and has a great time!!

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.
