Busy Bees Harlow

Our son has been at Busy Bees since a baby and his care and wellbeing has been of a high standard. He has learnt so much in his first two years and his integration into his next room has been dealt with so well, he loves it with the bigger children out of the baby room. Although he was very clingy at first, the love and attention he gets, makes him relaxed within a minute and always comes home happy, showing us all he has done. We can't wait to see him progress in his final three years and look forward to introducing our new baby to nursery.

The nursery is very good at helping my child learn and interact with the environment. The outdoor facilities are very good and they spend a lot of time out there. The staff are all very approachable and friendly.

My daughter has been going to Busy Bees for 4 months and absolutely loves it. So far we have found all the staff members to be very friendly and helpful. She always has a great day doing various activities, all of which are fed back to us daily. I'm very happy we sent our daughter to Busy Bees.

My daughter (3) and son (1) both attend this nursery and I could not recommend enough. The staff care about the children like they were their own, they plan the day with so many fun activities and they have both never come home hungry with such a full and nutritious menu. They were totally on board to help me with big transitions in my daughter's life including the birth of her baby brother and potty training. Both of their faces light up when they walk through the door each morning at nursery, so that speaks volumes for me!

Our child has been attending for 6 months and settled really quickly. They plan lots of activities and he has developed really well during this time. Staff are friendly and communicate well through updates on Parentzone and newsletters and managers are keen to engage with parents. The menu is brilliant and we have confidence that allergies are catered for. Would recommend this nursery to other parents.

Both my children attend Busy Bees, Harlow and both love their time there. They are so clearly well looked after, engaged and treated as individuals. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this nursery. My son starts school in September 2018 and I know that he will miss some of the friends he has made there and will hopefully reflect on his time there as fondly as I will.

I am generally happy with the nursery. There is enough qualified staff and the environment is clean. The activities provided are interesting and keep the children occupied. The food menu is good and varied. I would like the staff to provide more assistance with the children's visits to the toilet. During cold weather, the children should not be allowed to play with cold water outside. During winter the staff should assist the children to change indoor shoes to warmer boots when they go in the garden.

I put my baby into Busy Bees at 5 months as I had to go back to work. I was so nervous as he was so young and he had been with me all the time. But since he has been there, his progress is amazing. He loves going and always smiles when he gets there. Also, I couldn't speak more highly of the staff, they are fantastic. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone. Brilliant.

WE LOVE THE NURSERY!

All three of my children have gone to Busy Bees and loved going. My three year old still goes and the change in her from when she first went and now is so different, more outgoing and not shy. When it's time to go to nursery she gets really excited about going. The staff are really friendly and easy to talk to.

Busy Bees in Harlow has been a brilliant nursery for my daughter, she has grown up with the children since she was a little baby and now in pre-school. All of the staff are very helpful, attentive and friendly couldn't recommend this nursery enough! I feel that my daughter is very well looked after and happy every day.

We are very happy with our daughter being at Busy Bees Nursery. The staff are so friendly, the app and updates are great and facilities are perfect. Our two-year-old is progressing well and above her age for most things and we believe Busy Bees has played a huge part in that!

We are really pleased we found this nursery.

Very good nursery, one of the best in Harlow. Any complaints we have had, have been dealt with immediately and efficiently. Outdoor space is good and made excellent use of what space there is. The online portal introduced is a good way to keep up to date with my son's progress. Safeguarding is excellent, it was a key point for me when choosing a nursery. The food menu is varied, fresh and locally sourced.

More importantly, my daughter loves it and she runs in.

My son has been going here for 3.5 years and I couldn't fault the nursery. All staff members are welcoming and are there to discuss any concerns with child's learning. My son has come on leaps and bounds and that is partially down to the learning techniques used at Busy Bees. The food and nutrition supplied at Busy Bees is of a high quality and there is always a menu available. Everything that your child does is recorded on parent zone and feedback from staff about your child's day is delivered at a fantastic level. Highly recommend Busy Bees in Harlow.

I feel good every morning that they are in very good care.

Moved up from London to Harlow and my daughter, who has autism, lacked proper support at her previous nursery. She could not speak any words, only babble and say 'hi'. Since attending Busy Bees, her speech has blossomed so quickly between October 2016 to now. She is using 2-3 word sentences, as well as counting and verifying animals, objects, sounds, colours, shapes, names etc. She's come so far with all the proper support that's been given that I can have a conversation with her and understand as well as communicate with her better. My youngest son also went to the nursery. It's the only daycare I've felt safe to leave my children in and being able to see your child from Reception via CCTV if you want to check on them, without disturbing them, as well as fob keys for parents - extra security is very helpful and reassuring. The premises are always clean, staff are polite and caring, food menus are healthy. All round it's a wonderful daycare nursery.

My son first came to this nursery in May 2016. I have found it to be well resourced, safe, clean with well qualified and caring staff who have catered brilliantly for his educational and pastoral needs. His behaviour, speech and development have improved greatly during this period.

Busy Bees Harlow is absolutely amazing. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. We were offered play and stay sessions even before we haven't enrolled. Number of settling in sessions gave us the confidence that our daughter will be in safe hands which was very important for the full-time working parents like us. Nursery premises are very spacious and have to big gardens, well organised, plenty of toys, books and activities to keep children busy at all times. All the staff are very friendly, caring and always smiling. They managed our daughters daily medicine timings spot-in! Our daughter is always happy when we drop her off and pick-up everyday. Food menu is really good and suitable for all the different requirements. I couldn't recommend the nursery enough.
