Could not have been happier with your choice of nursery. The staff are incredibly caring, thorough and have helped our sons development so much during his time there. He is our first son and we are so relieved he is somewhere so many staff members care so much.

Our daughter has attended Busy Bees nursery for 1.5 years since she was 11 months old and I could not be happier with our experience. In the time she has been going she has been in three rooms according to her age and development and each room has seen her grown from strength to strength with the support and enrichment of the staff and surroundings. Her days are full of activities and fun that have also helped her learn to walk, talk, sing, paint and most importantly be the confident toddler she has become. During all of her developments, I have been kept updated by staff and the online resources, which have made us very satisfied with the level of care she receives.

Generally excellent. All staff seemed to know my child's name and greeted her warmly when we arrived. I was a bit surprised (and disappointed) to find that meringue and ice-cream were given as puddings. Parent Zone could be better used; I don't expect staff to have time to write stuff more often but more photos or even short videos would be nice to see on a more regular basis.
My daughter is always happy when I arrive to pick her up. She has learned to sit down and eat with a spoon too.

Very friendly and competent staff. However not as much staff as expected to take care of the group of babies. Some busy days my daughter is exhausted as the group of babies is quite large. Would be great to reduce it or split in 2 smaller groups.

Thank you for your review. We have outstanding resources and operate a high staff to child ratio, with only 7 babies in our newly refurbished baby room at any one time to make sure that all babies have the highest quality of attention and care. If you have any concerns or questions please do not hesitate to see us at the nursery. Kind Regards, Nursery Manager

Excellent fun environment for my three-year-old boy. He arrived 7 months ago with hardly any language having been living in Italy. Within a few weeks he is using English words and happily playing with his new friends. Very special place with excellent manager and my son has a really super teacher.
