We love Busy Bees Spital!
All of the staff are genuinely amazing - even those who aren't in my children's rooms know them by name and always greet them with warmth. The nursery feels incredibly safe and welcoming. Since joining, both of my children's speech and confidence have come on so much. We're
truly grateful for the care and support they receive every day.

Busy Bees Horsham

from E A (Mother of Child) published on 4 December 2025
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Overall our son seems very happy at the nursery. The group he's moved into helped improve his speech and he has made some new friends. The nursery are slowly helping us with potty training but we're aware it is difficult with a lot of children so think he is unlikely to be asked often if he needs a
wee.
We had a bit of disruption with staff changes and things seem to have settled a bit but we were seeing different staff everyday and each week. We have very little communication with his key worker which is a bit disappointing but others seem to know him well.
He loves being outside which they do everyday and often during they summer. He has enjoyed learning the nursery rhymes, singing them at home and has been practicing his counting.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since my daughter joined the buzz 1 group, she has honestly been thriving. She has become confident, happy to come to nursery and recite what she learns at home.
From the days of the week, playing teachers, reading us stories, the alphabet and more.
She has done poppy activities, Halloween & they
have even taken some of our home play ideas and brought them to their class. Which my daughter loved! Even printing her pictures for her class!
Stacey and lily are so welcoming and accommodating when we drop off and collect our daughter. They always make time to talk us through her day and no question is ever too much
Zoe has always been welcoming at the door, answering questions and ensuring we have all the information we need about upcoming activities or emails.
All staff know who my daughter is and therefore me & I love that aspect of nursery. It's warm, welcoming and everyone says hello in the building.
My daughter even asked if she could go on a day she doesn't have nursery!

Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended busy bees at Hempstead for 14 months now and I am so happy we chose this nursery for him as he has settled in amazingly well. He is a very sensitive boy and I truly believe the reason he has settled so quickly and so well is because of the amazing staff that look after him. They
are so caring, understand and patient with not only my son but me as a mother. No question is too much for them and I feel I'm always informed and supported in any decision relating to my son at nursery.
They've helped him so much in his own personal development and I couldn't be happier for him to spend his time at this nursery.

The staff are fantastic and you can really see the way the children look up to them and the relationships
the children build with their key workers. I would not hesitate at recommending the Nursery to anyone looking for a setting to send their children to. Not only is it a great nursery but the way the funding is spread over the year is a massive help, especially when sending two children.

My son started at Busy Bees Nursery in September, and he has come on in leaps and bounds with his confidence since then! All of my concerns about his needs have always been listened to, and I genuinely feel heard and supported. The staff are wonderful, especially Abbie - she is so understanding and
always takes the time to discuss any worries I have about my son's learning and development. Arlee is so much happier now and has settled in so well. I couldn't be more grateful for the care and attention he receives. Thank you, Busy Bees!

I was initially let down by my previous nursery. With 1 week to go trying to find a full time place, Busy Bees was so quick and seamless with registering my daughter into the nursery within a couple of days. Since the start, I have had 0 issues with the nursery and cannot recommend enough. The staff
and management team are great 10/10! Super friendly and the communication is really superb. I feel so comfortable with them looking after my daughter and she is absolutely thriving with her development. She loves going to nursery every day. It's lovely to see how she gets on throughout the day through the app also. They are always doing new activities which is lovely to see!

Busy Bees Kettering

Busy Bees Nursery at Venture Park, Kettering has been nothing short of amazing for both my boys. My two year old absolutely loves it there - he's learnt so much, grown in confidence, and comes home happy every single day. The team are so caring, patient and genuinely invested in the children's development.
The
food is always nutritious and varied, and Harvin eats so well at nursery (sometimes better than at home!). It gives me huge peace of mind knowing he's getting such balanced meals and trying new things.
They were also incredible with my eldest when he attended. The consistency, warmth and high level of care across the years shows how much pride they take in what they do.
I'm so grateful to all the staff for creating such a safe, fun and nurturing environment. If you're looking for a nursery that truly supports your child's learning, wellbeing and happiness, I couldn't recommend Busy Bees Venture Park enough. They really are outstanding!

My son has been attending Busy Bees Priorslee for 5months and we are so pleased with how he's getting on. Staff are friendly and helpful. We see daily updates through their app and are kept in the loop about events so even though he is only in 2 days a week, he won't miss out.
The food is amazing,
he eats better than we do! The facilities are lovely and inviting for all ages.
Would highly recommend.

Busy Bees Moreton

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After viewing several nurseries, we decided on Busy Bees Moreton due to the sheer feel of it the moment you step through the doors. There is a car park, garden and the rooms are spacious enough for each class and not overcrowded. Their app is brilliant for daily updates, photos and messaging the team
too.
That being said, the best part about this nursery is all of the wonderful staff who work there. You can sense they truly care for each and every child and our son absolutely loves being with them. The management team are always so communicative and have always done their best when accommodating last minute requests.
Our son started at 11 months old and formed not only a great bond with his key workers but all of the staff in his classes. He has made some great friendships with the other children in his class, improved his social skills and communication, eats well balanced meals, always engaged and well cared for during his time at Busy Bees, something we are eternally thankful for.
Reply from Hollie Brook, Centre Director at Busy Bees Moreton
Thank you so very much for this review, we are extremely grateful to have the best parents as well and children and staff.

Staff always friendly and saying "Hello" to the children on drop off and "Goodbye" on collection. General vibe there is really lovely and honest. Any issues we've had have been communicated and resolved swiftly. Communication is everything and they communicate well.
Reply from Dan Wilson, Centre Director at Busy Bees Tunbridge Wells
Thank you for the positive feedback. We hope that our communication improves even further with the roll out of our new app

We started on Busy Bees a year ago and our son has been extremely happy from the start. Staff have been great at accomodating our son's different medical issues and they are amazing with the kids. All the staff is very warm and polite, and they always greet us with a smile. Marc is learning and progressing
and, as parents, we are told all details regarding his days at Busy Bees. We are so happy with the choice we made!

The nursery has been perfect for our daughter. She started when she was around 9 months old and we've always found the nursery provides exactly what she needs. The staff are warm and helpful and have formed strong bonds with my daughter. They do a lot of different activities each week and expose her
to a wide variety of activities. They are also very focused on her progression which is great.

Things that busy bees does well - child safety, care and affection to child, positive reinforcement, helping the child settle into different rooms within the nursery, nutritious meals, helping the child through mealtimes, potty training, comforting a fussy or upset child, office staff is always helpful
with the admin side of things.
Things that they could improve especially in comparison to what some other nurseries offer in the same geography - more outdoor space, more equipment for physical activity, more supervised mixing of different age groups, short walks out of nursery setting for 4/5 year olds.
The staff and management have made some good changes in recent times - including new toilets for kids, hiring more staff, more communication to parents through the app.
My child's safety, physical wellbeing and mental wellbeing are the most important things for me and busy bees staff have always excelled at that.
