Our son started at this nursery when he was just 1 year old, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, the staff made us feel reassured and supported during what can be quite an emotional transition for both parents and child.The team are incredibly caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children's wellbeing and development. It's clear they take the time to get to know each child as an individual, which really shows in how comfortable and happy our son is when he's there. We've seen such positive progress in his confidence, social skills, and early learning. The activities are engaging and age-appropriate, and we love receiving updates about his day.
Thank you
I moved my child to this nursery in December 2025 from another setting and I was so anxious about them settling into a new nursery, however the team at Busy Bees have been so welcoming and made the process so smooth. My child is so much happier at this nursery, and I truly believe this is down to the staff. Every morning you're greeted with a "hello" from everyone, feedback of my child's day is given at pick up everyday and parents are kept informed of any updates & important information regularly. I'd recommend this nursery setting to friends & family, Kate and the Team do a fantastic job.
The environment is warm, welcoming, and full of positive energy. It's clear that the team truly cares about each child and takes the time to understand their individual needs. I love how they keep us updated and make us feel involved in his day.
I've always felt reassured knowing she is in such capable and compassionate hands. The staff consistently go above and beyond to support her development, encouraging her curiosity, independence, and confidence. She comes home each day happy, engaged, and full of stories about what she has learned and explored, which speaks volumes about the stimulating and supportive environment you provide.
Over the years, I've watched her blossom into a bright, confident, and inquisitive little girl, and I truly believe that the dedication and encouragement she has received from the team have played a significant role in that. I'm incredibly grateful for the
Our children started at Busy Bees Cheam in January and we couldn't be happier. I was nervous leaving my 10 month old babies but that subsided quickly. They settled in very well thanks to the lovely staff. When we drop them off they have big smiles and are happy to be left in the care of the staff. The communication we get is fantastic via the app but also phone calls when appropriate. We have noticed both our children making great progress in terms of their development since they started at Busy Bees Cheam. The nursery is a very welcoming and friendly environment and we will be happy to take our children there for the next 3 years or so.
He enjoys coming to nursery each day and is always excited to talk about the activities he has taken part in and who he has played with each day. The variety of activities clearly supports his development and keeps him interested and happy.
He is always taking about the nursery, his friends and his teachers, regularly mentioning them by name at home. This alone reassures us that he feels safe, valued, and cared for. It's clear that the strong relationships between staff and children make a real difference. We are extremely grateful for the support and dedication of the team and couldn't recommend the nursery more.
The nursery staff makes effort to give beautiful experiences to parents as well like they created greeting card for my birthday with my daughter , Mothers day card was heart touching. Their Christmas celebration with kids and parents was amazing, we got a chance to meet ohter parents like us.
Weaning journey has been great with Busy bees, my daughter loves to eat food at nursery. They keep me updated about my daughter very well and also share advices which is very helpful for a new mother like me.
My daughter has learned a lot over the last 6 months and all thanks to the busy bees team I returned to the work worry free.
I always recommend them in my network and
would love to recommend here as well.
Our son started at Busy Bees Cheam at the beginning of January and we have been so happy with every aspect of the nursery and care. He has settled in really nicely with the nursery and other children and the staff have helped with that. All the staff are friendly, happy, professional and give a great handover of your child's day. It has made the process feel relaxed and positive and we look forward to hearing / seeing on the app what he has been up to. They spend lots of time in the garden and each week parents get a list of activities and themes for their child's week. Thanks everyone, we are very happy!
The staff are fantastic and caring. My children love being with them! The curriculum and facilities are great and the food is amazing and freshly prepared on-site each day. Busy Bees use an app so you can see what your children have been up to and which early years targets they have met/worked towards. I cannot recommend Busy Bees enough!

We absolutely love Busy Bees, Cheam. The staff are amazing and friendly. When we started at the nursery my daughter was fifteen months old and it has been a great experience. She loves going to nursery and the food there. The only thing I recommend would be to have park/outdoor visits for preschool kids.

Really good and they take care of my child well. Lots of activities and my son is settling really well. Staff are more kind to children and they explain what they did for the day and session. Also they take into account our concerns or help the child needs. I strongly recommend the nursery.

Busy Bees, Cheam is such an amazing nursery and filled with wonderful nursery practitioners. When I drop my daughter off I feel secure that she is safe and with people who care about her as if she was their own.

He is very well looked after at the Malden Road Nursery. The staff there are brilliant and they are really making a big difference in my son’s development. My son is very fond of the staff that looks after him which really reassures me every morning when he’s dropped off.
He’s got a lot of toys to play with there and his key person always updates me on the activities he’s done each day.
I can't thank them enough for the amazing care they are providing!
