I joined Bitteswell after moving from Derbyshire to the area. My son joined the pre-school room and my daughter started in the before and after school club. My son settled in well and staff really made the effort to get to know him and as an anxious mum whose son had been in the same nursery since five
months I was made to feel comfortable and was reassured that they were cared for, by both the staff and the manager. My son only attended the preschool room for a short while before starting school and I feel this really helped build his confidence, make more friends and become more independent thanks to the team and it certainly helped prepare me! My children now both use the breakfast, after school and the holiday club and I am so thankful that they love it! They have good relationships, get help with homework, have a good hot meal, activities that are interesting and are cared for by professional, caring staff.

My daughter started nursery this month. We had two visits prior to starting and we had a very positive response.
The staff are very caring, helpful and happy to work according to the child's needs.
I feel very reassured.

My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 4 months old (now 7.5 months old). I have a very happy little baby who I'm always told is an extremely sociable, smiley baby. We get photos regularly of the baby's day in nursery & staff are always so friendly. My daughter gives huge smiles to the
carers when she arrives in the morning which shows me exactly what she thinks of the place. They've also helped tremendously with weaning. I'm an extremely satisfied parent!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.537)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.537) out of 10 for Busy Bees Bitteswell is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 17 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 4.951 for Busy Bees Bitteswell is calculated as follows: ( (194 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.951

  • 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 4.586 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Bitteswell is based on 17 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 145 number of registered child places is 29. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 29 = 0.586

  • 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.
