My granddaughter is so happy at Busy Bees. She's only 15 months old, but has developed really well. She's been given many educational opportunities, things we may not have had time to do at home.
The staff are all professional and very friendly. They care about each child. Well worth the money. Thank

Our daughter has been at Busy Bees for 2.5 years and she absolutely loves it. All the staff are friendly and knowledgeable and the manager runs an excellent nursery, leads from the front and we have always found her to be very caring and involved with the children. Wonderful nursery which we will be
very sad to say goodbye to, when our daughter starts school in September.

This nursery has been a second home to both of my boys. I have been leaving them here for six years in total now and do not have one fault. The Staff are exceptional and go above and beyond on each occasion to meet the boys needs and interests. Very well organised and merry. He currently loves his routine
with Busy Bees, it's all he talks about! I'll be sad when it comes to leaving in September.

I cannot thank the entire team enough for all the care they give my little girl. Having her start nursery during the pandemic was hard, but within a matter of weeks, any worry had gone. With regular updates, observations and photos, it is clear to see how happy she is there. The team are a big part
of my little one's life and I couldn't wish for any better people for her. Thank you for being so amazing and caring as much as you do.

I've had my daughter in this nursery now for nearly one year and I am happy with everything, from the food menu, the communication, the child updates and photos, the staff and mostly the progress my daughter is making. I love the way my daughter runs into nursery every time no matter which staff come
to greet us.

My second daughter is currently attending and the standards are still just as high as they were when my eldest attended from 2016 to 2018. Always very welcoming when dropping off or picking up. Great communication. Really pleased that I picked Busy Bees again.

Thank you.

My child has attended this nursery for over 3 years, they are committed to providing the children with a safe, happy environment whilst developing their motor and communication skills. I particularly like that I am able to use apps to check what my child has been doing at nursery, and apps to continue
the learning at home. When I have needed childcare for unexpected reasons, they have accommodated where possible. Overall, a great team, and will recommend to others. Thank you.

Our son really enjoys coming to Busy Bees. Everyone there is friendly and he's made lots of friends. He was given a cuddly bumble bee which has become his treasured item and something he'll have to remember his time there in the future. All in all, he is very happy here.

Busy Bees at Darlington has a very nurturing environment in which our little boy has made excellent progress. His key worker has consolidated learning he's started at home and has taught him many key skills. All staff strive to ensure children are safe and secure in their learning environment. They
allow children's personalities to shine through. An amazing place!

As a grandparent and childminder (of over 30 years) I think Busy Bees Darlington is the best nursery I have ever used. The staff and management are friendly, caring and very knowledgeable. They welcome every child as they enter and I feel that the children are very safe and well cared for. All the children
that have attended have been happy and really enjoyed their time with the nursery. Fab nursery.

My son has attended over two different classrooms now and I can't recommend the nursery enough. It became clear that he has need of extra support and they are over and above in their help, even as we pursue a diagnosis. Always supportive and positive, always doing fun learning activities. Fantastic
organisational skills and facilities are always clean. Their kitchen staff are as good and friendly as everyone else. My daughter came here 12 years ago and many of the staff are still here now, which says a lot about how dedicated they are. I can't recommend them enough or thank them enough for their support with my son. They really listen.

My son recently moved to Busy Bees from another nursery. He has developed so much in a short space of time. He's coming home happy and full of stories of what he has been doing. The communication between staff and parents is excellent along with the app. It's lovely to receive updates and pictures showing
how happy he is. I can't fault Busy Bees at all.

Excellent nursery! Staff are always very friendly and great with the children. My little girl has come on so much since coming here (2018) and she enjoys nursery that much that she never wants to leave at the end of the day. I would definitely recommend to anyone that wanted a great nursery.

Busy Bees have been extremely helpful in settling in our 3-year-old who at first didn't want to go at all and would cry a lot. Thanks to Busy Bees for being a safe, fun environment, our daughter soon settled and is very comfortable with the staff.
