very pleased with my child's growth from the nursery and his enjoyment when going, friendly nursery and has good standards. The nursery environment is good and the outside space was important to me when my child started.

I have picked up my nephew from Busy Bees a few times and staff are so warm and welcoming. The daily feedback is always detailed, from activities, what they ate and anything else that may have happened throughout the day. My nephew is always happy and excited to talk about his day and what he has been up to. I would definitely recommend Busy Bees to family and friends.

The team are fantastic and our son loves it here. They really take time to learn about the children and care for them. They have great extra curricular activities like the drama/theatre club that my son adores.

We would highly recommend this nursery. Our child started at only 10 months old, and was so well taken care of, and settled very quickly with such caring, supportive staff. They are like an extended family. The app is updated regularly with information about your child's day, including images which is wonderful to see, especially to record development and learning. Our child is so happy to go to this nursery and we couldn't be more confident in our choice to send them here.

The manager of the nursery is lovely and welcoming. She is a very kind and professional person. We liked the nursery because of her. She is doing a very amazing job.

My son loved going to Busy Bees, Harlesden, every day and I give here, my appreciation to all the nursery workers there, best of the best. Going to Busy Bees has helped my son prepare for reception and also with communication with other children.
Hello, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review! We're glad you're giving your little one the best start in life with us. Best wishes, Busy Bees.
My daughter goes to this nursery and the duty and care that she receives from the manager is amazing. Can see she is such a good role model because the staff are always happy. I will continue to refer my friends and family.
Busy Bees have been amazing. The manager has really looked after my daughter and I will be sad when she leaves this great team.
This is a fantastic Nursery. My daughter has been attending since she was two years old and her speech and confidence has grown. She has made a lot of friends and has a good relationship with the teachers. They learn something new every day.
My son has attended this nursery since he was one and I remain very happy with the nursery as a whole. The staff are all lovely, extremely friendly and grounded. The level of care you expect your child to receive from a nursery is lived up to, I drop my son off completely at ease knowing he will be very looked after.
My daughter attended the nursery a few years ago, my son started 2 months ago, it has amazing outdoor space and great activities and play spaces inside. It took him a while to settle in and especially during these challenging times I thought it would be hard. All the staff have been so lovely and helpful, he comes out saying how much he had enjoyed his day. He has become a lot more independent, he is learning new skills and I know he is being well cared for.
My son has been attending Busy Bees since 2018 and we have seen a lot of managers come and go but I have to say, this is the best manager and team by far. The manager is caring and always has a big smile on her face when greeting the children and parents in the mornings. Staff are happy and there seems to be such a warm environment. My son is very happy and loves coming to the nursery every day. It's such a good feeling nursery with such a beautiful outdoor space. The best team by far and thank you to all for taking such good loving care of my child.
Since returning my son back to the nursery, he is enjoying coming to nursery. The staff are absolutely brilliant in helping him to settle back in. The manager has been absolutely fantastic and he loves seeing her in the morning. He has only been back a couple of weeks and he has learn so much and as a parent, I am really pleased.
With the current climate, I'm amazed by how the staff are so warm and caring towards the children and parents. My grandson has been attending Harlesden before he was a year old, it's like his second home. The manager and team always take time to speak to me making sure my whole family is ok. The best team by far, can't thank them enough.
The staff team at Busy Bees Harlesden are wonderful. My daughter is now 3 and has been attending the nursery for 2 years. The staff team and current management go out of their way to make the children feel at home and to create a caring and fun environment. During lockdown, my daughter repeatedly told me how much she missed nursery and is now delighted to be back with her friends doing fun activities. The garden, with treehouse and mud kitchen, is a particular favourite!
My three-year-old boy absolutely loves his time here. Every single teacher and management are so lovely and caring, the kids are happy and I can’t believe how much he learns every day. The set up is great, with an incredible outside space - perfect to burn off that three-year-old energy. I honestly couldn’t recommend this nursery more, it’s been such a lovely constant in our son’s life.
I’m supposed to specify a specific time but my son has been at Busy Bees Harlesden since he was ten months old, he is now three years old. The nursery has been a wonderful part of my son’s life. The staff at the nursery are all extremely caring and engaged in the children’s learning path. My son has made great friends and looks forward to each day and always has lots to tell me about his day when I pick him up. Another big reason I chose this nursery, is the outdoor space which is quite simply fantastic. It is huge for an inner London nursery and the kids have a wonderful time playing all year round.
The staff are so kind and thoughtful and really love the children. I feel my son is really safe there. We were particularly nervous about how he would fare there as he has special needs but the staff have worked really well to accommodate him and he loves it - lots of fun. Plus the garden is enormous and so lush. Nice to know they are breathing in relatively clean air there.
