Apple Trees Nursery in Bushbury have welcomed my son and his extra health needs in such a positive way, it's almost got rid of all our anxiety about sending him to nursery. After visiting around 10 nurseries prior, none of them were willing to help or move anything around that would help him but as
soon as I went to Apple Trees nothing was too much trouble. The excellent nursery staff help develop his skills and learn new ones as well as just playing with the children which is lovely to see. It's so easy to contact the nursery on the app and pay an invoice. It's also a massive bonus to receive pictures of my son throughout the day and he always comes away so happy! 100% would recommend Apple Trees.

All the staff at Apple Trees are really wonderful! They are so kind and attentive with my daughter and really make me feel reassured leaving her! She does different activities each day, such as baking, messy play etc. and I can see how much she is progressing already even after only being there for
a few months! My daughter is really enjoying going and is making great connections with the ladies in her room. They have so many toys/books and things for the children to do! I feel 100% confident leaving my child with all the staff and really appreciate everything they do! The nursery is a great little addition to the surrounding community.

My son moved to Apple Trees due to the closure of the previous nursery. It was a big change for my son but he loves it at Apple Trees. They learn new things every day and he enjoys garden time very much. Staff are approachable and very accommodating. It's nice to walk in and see all of the children
happy and the staff having a great time too. Staff are always eager to tell you what your child has been doing that day. Handover is fantastic. Parents also have access to the app so get updates throughout the day which is nice when you're wondering if they are ok. Very happy mom.

Since my boy has started it is clear that his care and routine are a priority and the staff always do their best to make him feel welcome and safe. When we pick him up he is always seen to be happy and well taken care of. The staff are lovely and really do take the time to update us on his day and understand
what our boy needs and how they can support him. It is leaps and bounds over other nurseries we have seen, the care they give is great, and the area they have is just right for children of his age. We know that it will help him continue to grow and develop in the best way.

We have been nothing but happy with the service provided to our little boy since starting in September. He has seemed to have settled in really well and all staff are warm and welcoming to both myself and my son. It's always worrying when starting your young child in a new setting and leaving them there
for long periods, however, I have been reassured by all the staff and the regular updates that he is happy and safe throughout the day. Thank you to all staff at Apple Trees.

I would highly recommend Apple Trees to anyone thinking of enrolling their child as it was the best decision we ever made. From the moment he met the staff for the first time he was really comfortable. He loves going to nursery and he's always so happy to see everybody. In just a month I've noticed
how much his confidence has grown with exploring new things, and approaching and playing with children. We are kept up to date with photos of him and the activities the children are doing for the day and details about what he has eaten and done on the app. We love the facilities, the culture, the staff and the outstanding care given to our little boy. The communication from the nursery is excellent and we are kept up to date with the weekly menu and anything we need to be made aware of. I couldn't recommend Apple Trees enough!

Lovely nursery, my granddaughter has been coming for a couple of months and she's really enjoying it. It's great to see all the artwork she comes home with that she completed at nursery and I love seeing the photos of her having fun throughout the day sent to me by her parents. On the occasions I've
picked her up the staff always welcome me with a smile and are all so polite and helpful.

Professional and very caring. My little girl was very nervous and anxious in attending nursery, they took the time to get to know her to make the whole process much easier. They keep me informed with her daily activities and progress she has made in her time at the nursery which really helped reassure
me! Most importantly my daughter enjoys being here and looks forward to her days at nursery. Staff are very welcoming and approachable would really recommend any parent to look around. Such a lovely, friendly nursery! Thank you!

My son attends this new nursery. He moved here from a different setting due to a house move. I was very nervous but the management and the staff have gone above and beyond in making both me and my son feel comfortable. They really care about giving your child the best start in life and will do everything
they can to support that. My son barely says goodbye at the door he is so excited to go in to play with his friends and the staff! Highly recommend.

Both my boys have been coming here for the last few months, one in each room. They have come on so much and absolutely love it, they do so many activities all day and the toddler just rattles my head off about what he's done all day. The baby room is brilliant! My little boy absolutely loves 2 members
of staff in particular and just lights up when he sees them. Would highly recommend.

The hardest thing ever is picking a nursery for your child. I can not thank the staff enough at this beautiful nursery. I have never ever felt that my son is unhappy, all the staff are so happy and friendly, my son's development within the few weeks that he has been there is phenomenal. I have constant
photos throughout the day and with the fantastic technology they have, I can view at any time of the day what my son has eaten how long he has slept how many nappy changes he has had and the staff are very prompt and efficient with this. I could not have asked more from a nursery, staff and management are always eager to help and my son already loves them all. The management have a very hands-on approach with the children which is fantastic and they can tell me everything that he has done that day. I am extremely happy with my choice and I would recommend anyone to consider this nursery if they need one. Happy happy happy mommy! I can not thank you enough!

I can not sing enough praises about Apple Trees. We have our 2 boys here and they love it.
Our youngest struggled with settling in but the team in the baby room was amazing. They took their time and were so patient to help him settle.
Leaving a child in the care of someone is not that easy as a
parent but the team gave us assurance by constant updates of how the boys were doing throughout the day. We get updates of what they are doing, which makes me feel involved in the boys' daily routine and activities.
I was sceptical getting them into Apple Trees at first as it is a new nursery, I was not sure how good they are as there are no previous reviews, but it is the best decision we have made for our boys.
Our boys are happy when we pick them up in the evening. The 3 year old loves the place and made friends quickly.
The owners are lovely people that take on board suggestions and addrsss any concerns to the best of their ability.
Thank you Apple Trees.

Apple Trees Day Nursery has a lovely, warm and inviting culture, which was something really important to us when choosing a nursery. The Manager, the Director and the team do a fantastic job day in and day out. The care, love and encouragement the children receive to explore and develop at the nursery
is fantastic and I love the range of activities the children are involved in. My son settled in straight away due to the care the staff give each child. He's so excited to go to nursery on a morning, it's a joy to see. I would highly recommend Apple Trees Day Nursery to anyone looking for a nursery in the area and I feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful and happy environment for my son. Something else I've also appreciated is that the nursery keep you up to date with information via the app. Although this app is fairly new, it is so easy to use and you can also contact members of the team. It's very easy and straightforward to pay fees via the app too.

We have had an excellent experience with Apple Trees in Bushbury after we had a bad experience with a childminder previous to this. The level of care and support our son receives is second to none, the nursery has exceeded all our expectations. Our son loves coming to Apple Trees and cannot wait to
go in the morning time, telling who his friends are at nursery while in the car. The whole staff team is contributing towards his growth and challenging him on a daily basis in ways which we didn't imagine and we have already seen a massive improvement in his confidence and ability. We are kept up to date with activities on the app and can communicate directly with the staff. Apple Trees truly feels like a second home and I cannot thank them enough for what they are doing for us. We would highly recommend this nursery to all friends and family.

Both my girls aged 2 and 3 love coming to this nursery daily. They learn, play and develop new skills with the lovely nursery staff. Each day is something new and I'm glad I decided to choose this nursery for my children. Keep up the good work!

A new nursery with a great young and dynamic management team. The nursery and classroom activities are natural and interactive, the staff are all professional and caring. I like the way they work and find them all very helpful and supportive. May not be the cheapest but definitely amongst the best in
Wolverhampton. Happily recommended to all parents.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.743)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.743) out of 10 for Apple Trees Nursery 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.743 for Apple Trees Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 191 Ratings = 4.743

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Apple Trees Nursery is based on 15 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 56 number of registered child places is 11.2, which has been reached with 15 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
