Review from T E (Father of Child) published on 9 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our two sons (now 7 and 4) attended Busy Bees West Ealing between 2019 and 2024 and we could not be happier. We always felt the team truly cared about the children. It was not "just a job" for them.
The daily feedback was always comprehensive and the mobile app is well maintained with frequent updates, photos and observations. Catering is great and made freshly on site.
Our boys developed a real connection with their carers as well as the other children. It was a happy experience for us all.

Would highly recommend.

Overall Experience

I started my pre-schooler daughter with half days at Busy Bees but she very quickly insisted that she would like to come full days instead! She has absolutely adored her time there and we are very happy with the friendly environment and engaging activities provided for the kids. The meals are both nutritious and tasty. Thank you Busy Bees!

Review from S H (Mother of Child) published on 8 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

When my daughter first started at Busy Bees West Ealing we had just moved and she was shy and lacked confidence. The teachers at the Nursery were considerate and nurturing from day one. My daughter was seen as an individual and with patience and caring they helped her to flourish. She loved her time at Busy Bees and would usually have a smile on her face at pick up time. When you leave your child in Nursery care you want them to be looked after and cared for, my child was truly known and loved by them which was amazing. She has made friends for life and thank you so much to all of you. We will cherish her time at Busy Bees and look forward to dropping in for a visit.

Overall Experience

Our son has been with Busy Bees West Ealing for a year now and I can see he enjoys his time there. What I appreciate the most is whenever I’m there to pick him up at the end of the session he’s always content, with a cute smile on his face. That’s how I know he has had a good day there with his teachers and friends. I am very happy and grateful for the staff for their patience and detailed observations around the children.

Busy Bees helps my daughter grow independently. She learns a lot here, how to love, cuddle, eat, read and be kind to everything. She is so happy to be here and she has lots of friends.

Teachers are professional, polite and helpful. They love my daughter and I can really feel it.

Review from Alina S (Mother of Child) published on 18 July 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son (2 years old) was very stressed at first but is completely settled now. It took him 2 months and loves going to the nursery. That's thanks to the very professional staff there. They teach him new things all the time and he is socialising and learning the language in a great way. Everything at Busy Bees West Ealing is of an outstanding level. I just wish it wasn't so expensive, so that we could afford more than 3 days a week.

Review from Emilie S (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My older daughter used to attend Busy Bees West Ealing and she absolutely loved it. She thrived and was so ready for school. My son started back in November at about 6 months and he has settled in very well. The love, the care and the support from the nursery nurses are outstanding. My son has done incredibly well. Unfortunately, I couldn't sustain the whole year's full time fees so I think Busy Bees head office should actually consider offering some term time only places. Many single working parents would find it useful. I am heartbroken to move my son as he was so happy and settled there. I highly recommend the nursery though!

Review from Melody W (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I would like to highly recommend Busy Bee West Ealing Day Centre and Baby Centre to all parents in the neighbourhood. Our son has been in the nursery since September 2020 when we first come to this country. My son who was still a toddler and had not yet spoken or walked had gradually adapted very well in the centre and learnt a lot from the staff who are so caring and guiding my son through the learning journey. He can now confidently interact with others in his second language - English, feed himself food, be able to put his trousers and shoes on and off and more and more. It is all because of the dedicated staff and managers in Busy Bees. I love the interactive app from Busy Bees in which the staff will keep me updated on my son's daily activities, photos and learning stories/assessments. I know he has developed a strong connection with the nursery staff as well as the other children and we would definitely keep in touch in the future. It is an outstanding nursery for sure!

Review from Baljit B (Mother of Child) published on 14 September 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been with Busy Bees, West Ealing since the age of 11 months old. She has grown into a confident and happy child who is prepared for school. The staff are all so amazing. Very dedicated to the well-being of all the children and work incredibly hard. The staff were so supportive during covid and lockdowns. The management work so hard to ensure children, parents and staff are well looked after. The staff have got us through tantrums, toilet training and fussy eating! We are so sad to leave such a wonderful team behind to go to school. My daughter has been very happy to go to nursery every day and wanted to go at the weekends too! So many different activities and even sports day! Mothers and fathers day are both celebrated with lovely gifts and treats for the parents! Christmas time is always special with the lengths they go to. The chef is amazing at catering for allergies. We had a number of nursery experiences, but Busy Bees, West Ealing, is by far the best experience we have ever had.

Overall Experience

My first son was attending this nursery, and now my little one just moved from the baby nursery. The transition was smooth, and the staff provided the necessary help for both him and us. He is now feeling more confident and is learning new things every day. Staff and management are doing an amazing job and are always supportive. We have been with Busy Bees West Ealing for nearly 3 years now and never had any issues. When my son is there, I know he is been taken care of!

Review from Susan F R (Mother of Child) published on 16 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Busy Bees since before her first birthday in 2018. Now, nearly three years later, we are so happy that we chose Busy Bees in West Ealing to be her safe and happy 'home-away-from-home. From Day 1, the teachers and team have been so warm and kind, and have really created a wonderful environment for the children to play and make friends. Our daughter has grown in confidence and has benefitted from a great foundation for the next steps in her education. I have no hesitation in recommending this nursery to all.

Review from Paul B (Father of Child) published on 10 May 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child is just over six months old and this was the first time I left him alone at a nursery setting. I was provided with excellent feedback and a breakdown of how my child’s day was. I was greeted at the door by two members of staff who were very friendly and reassuring. The presentation was excellent and I was put at ease straight away. The members of staff were very understanding of my needs and lack of expectations. I was free to ring the nursery and speak with staff about how my child was progressing throughout the day and this was good for me. When I picked my child up he was in the middle of a nap and looked extremely content. When he woke, he was in a very good mood, was fed and clean. I had an overview of how the day went and that was very fulfilling. Would highly recommend this nursery in the future.

Review from Janet P (Mother of Child) published on 28 January 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The staff here are just exceptional. Choosing the right nursery was (of course) incredibly important to us and there are so many options out there. Although Busy Bees was practically the most convenient for us, we were determined that this would not be how we would base our decision. We really wanted our son to feel happy and settled and the staff are honestly amazing - they make the nursery what it is and I can absolutely see why they achieved a good Ofsted rating. Yes, there may be other nurseries which have a more 'homely' settings but for us, it's the engagement and care that each member of staff shows which has really made a difference. Our son wasn't the easiest boy to manage in terms of settling in but the team have been so reassuring and he now loves going.

Thank you to everyone at Busy Bees Baby Nursery.

Review from Justin G (Father of Child) published on 25 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We are really lucky that we chose the Busy Bees at West Ealing over the others in the area. It’s difficult to know at the start whether the staff, other children and the facilities are going to be ok for your child. I can happily say that the staff are wonderful. They are kind, considerate and caring. They smile all the time and that’s a great sign. The food is good and varied. The building itself looks a little shabby down a dark cut through - however, it’s safe and inside the building it’s really nice, clean and spacious. There are lots of games, toys and activity areas. Everything is at a high standard of cleanliness. The other children and parents are all really lovely. We have first hand experience through a close relative that attends a nursery several streets away and, despite the other nursery being more expensive, the staff are definitely not as kind and accommodating. The manager and all the staff are all excellent, very kind and helpful. Very happy.

Review from Ellie S (Mother of Child) published on 25 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We went to see lots of nurseries and this one was by far the best and has exceeded expectations. Our little boy (18 months), has been there about 3.5 months and loves it. The staff are so warm and lovely, they are great at updating us on what he's up to (sharing pics of his artwork and him playing etc), they do so many lovely activities with him every day and the food seems delicious too. Would 100% recommend!

Overall Experience

Our daughter is so happy and content at Busy Bees which is all down to the incredibly hard work of the team day in day out and the genuine love they have for the children and filling their days with fun and development. She started just a few weeks before the first lockdown so has had to settle in twice which we were anxious about but has been nothing but a positive experience for her and for us to see her run in every day for her breakfast and run out smiling at the end of the day, usually with some “artwork”. She has built some great relationships with the staff and other children and the community around the nursery is great to be part of. The way the team have adapted to COVID safety measures has been excellent and I very quickly felt really happy with them being in such close contact with my daughter, not only happy but incredibly grateful to them for just getting on with things and bringing normality and joy to our lives.

Overall Experience

My nephew started the nursery a few months ago, and I can see the progress he has made since starting. I regularly collect him from the nursery and he always has so much to say when I pick him up demonstrating what a good job the staff are doing in taking care of him helping him learn. The team are friendly and welcoming and I would recommend the nursery to anyone who is looking for a small cosy nursery to make the experience of nursery unforgettable.
