My son attends Busy Bees and the care he has received here is brilliant. The staff always greet him on arrival and he happily goes to nursery.
We have noticed as his parents his character coming out more and more and how they are developing his skills socially and from a learning perspective- he is
always showing us new things he has learnt. He always was a social child and independent but we see this more now than ever.
An additional note is the staff; I cannot fault any of them, I can call anytime and they provided great support to me leaving him there as a first time mum as I found it particularly stressful. Now I know he loves going and enjoys it and I know he is in safe hands.
Would recommend this nursery in a heart beat to parents.

Both my children attend the nursery and they have settled in so well, I'm so happy with the progress they have made. Every morning they are so excited to go into nursery. The staff are always quick to inform me if something is not right. The staff are brilliant they are always making sure the nursery
is super clean and well set up for when the children attend. I'm so pleased with everything and I couldn't think of sending my boys anywhere else.

My daughter has been made to feel so welcome at this nursery. I am kept up to date with what she has eaten and all the activities in her day. I dont have any doubts that the people looking after my child have her best interests at heart. The building is also lovely and child-friendly, with an amazing
garden.

We have been at this nursery for just one month, and the difference from his previous nursery is astonishing. However, this nursery has been a revelation. From the moment he started, I noticed an immediate change. I often sneak a peek before he knows I'm there, and every time, he's playing with other
kids, chatting away, and genuinely enjoying the environment. It's such a joy to see him so happy and engaged. One of the biggest changes is his eating habits. He never ate anything at his old nursery, but here, he eats well and enjoys his meals. This has been a huge relief. The staff at this nursery are truly exceptional. They are kind, caring, and you can see that they genuinely care about my son. It's so reassuring to leave him in such a nurturing environment. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found this nursery. It provides a safe space for my son to flourish, and it allows me to work without guilt. Thank you to everyone at the nursery for making such a positive impact on our lives.

Myself and my little boy absolutely love this nursery. I’ve seen such a change in him in a short time since he’s been going there. The staff are kind and attentive, flexible to your needs and always so willing and eager to support in any way they can. The nursery setting itself is beautiful with a great
outdoor space.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.250)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.250) out of 10 for Montessori by Busy Bees at High Wycombe 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 8 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 4.979 for Montessori by Busy Bees at High Wycombe is calculated as follows: ( (92 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 94 Ratings = 4.979

  • 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 4.271 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Montessori by Busy Bees at High Wycombe is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 85 number of registered child places is 17. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 17 = 0.471

  • 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.
