Busy Bees Mardley Hill

I feel very privileged to be writing this review of Busy Bees Mardley Hill. It is hard to entrust your child into the care of others, but from the very first day there, she has been so happy. She loves going and loves each and every member of the amazing team. They are without exception the best and thoroughly deserved the outstanding Ofsted report they obtained. From the learning facilities and the care that goes into planning each and every learning activity to the awesome resources and carefully chosen food menu. The management team are professional, friendly and knowledgeable. So thank you everyone at Busy Bees for nurturing and teaching our precious girl and for being totally awesome. I have no hesitation in recommending this nursery and it's wonderful stuff to everyone.

The management are superb. They have such a lovely way of communicating with parents, and my daughter’s key worker is simply the best. I have so much respect for her and just want to say thank you so much for everything.

My little boy has been attending Busy Bees, Mardley Hill, half days to three days, over the last year. The care and nurturing he receives is second to none. He enjoys his time with his peers and key workers. He has learnt and developed so much and is clearly thriving in the space and environment. The team are attentive and focused on providing the best care. He loves going to school and I have nothing but praise for the whole team.

Staff are all upbeat and personable and the positive culture can be seen in the average tenure of staff - they clearly all enjoy their work.

Thank you to all the staff at Busy Bees Mardley Hill, you are doing a fab job and thank you again for taking great care of my little girl.

Busy Bees Mardley Hill is a great nursery. We really enjoy the online updates throughout the day and are impressed by the varied activities that are offered. Staff are amazing and my daughter loves it.

Outstanding, excellent, caring, diligent, attentive and professional are just a few words that describe my experience at this nursery. The care is second to none. The staff are informative, always ready to assist and it has a personal touch that I have not experienced elsewhere. The nursery is spotlessly clean and the children are happy and engaged. I have yet to meet a member of staff who does not go above and beyond. This nursery has the benefit of not being too big so that every member of staff knows every child. Can’t rate this nursery high enough for their care of my granddaughter. For anyone that wants peace of mind knowing their child is in a safe environment, surrounded by care and love whilst also nurturing every individual child’s development, Busy Bees Mardley Hill is the nursery that offers this in abundance.

I’ve been really pleased with the care and support my daughter has received since settling in the nursery in August. After not attending a nursery before and not socialising much due to the pandemic the staff have been amazing in meeting her needs to ensure she settles and I’ve been super pleased that she’s been enthusiastic to attend. I receive regular updates on her time at nursery and I love that I can submit home observations that her key person can then build on at nursery. The staff are enthusiastic and really care about the children’s well being. I would absolutely recommend the nursery.

My daughter rejoined Mardley Hill after a break (due to Covid) and has settled back in really well. She is really enjoying being in the setting and we have seen such improvement in her social skills since spending time at the nursery and looks forward to going (we have to say hello to Busy Bees if we are just driving past!) From a parent perspective, the admin side of things is efficient and we receive great communication from everyone in the team. We would have no hesitation in recommending.

Look no further. The team are simply wonderful! Our daughter thoroughly enjoys her visits and even after a long break of a year, she settled straight back in. While we were away the staff kept in contact which was really thoughtful and appreciated. Good variety of healthy meals. Plenty of stimulating items in the rooms and activities to help children develop.

Busy Bees at Mardley Hill is a wonderful, cosy nursery in a pretty setting. All the staff are very welcoming and accommodating and seem to have bonded really well with our three and a half year old twin daughters, who at times can be a bit reserved when it comes to a new environment. They always come back from nursery very cheerful and happy singing lots of new songs, telling stories and bringing home some very interesting arts and crafts that they have done that day. Parents are provided with a lot of updates and feedback about the children via the app and face to face on drop offs and pick ups every day. Busy Bees at Mardley Hill have also taken all the necessary precautions during the pandemic to make children and their parents feel safe and well looked after. We are very grateful to happen to live close by to such a great day care.

We decided to start our child at this nursery earlier this year due to Covid-19 and him having such a lack of time with other children to develop and learn from them. We have seen our child come on leaps and bounds since starting Busy Bees at Mardley Hill and that’s from the help of all the staff too. We get updates and pictures of all the activities he is doing and whenever he learns something new. We find this also really helpful so we can replicate the same sounds or interactions at home to continue to assist with our child’s development. The director and her team have always made me feel so calm and at ease with the nursery transition and my little one is so settled now and excited every time we get to the front door! I couldn’t recommend them enough. They go above and beyond to promote fun whilst learning, working on kindness and relationships, activities inside and outside, provide great diversity of food and create a really warm environment for your child to be in!

Fantastic nursery, can highly recommend! The staff are super efficient, great with the kids and always go the extra mile! The hours of the nursery actually mean parents can work! I have two children there, my eldest was a bit slower physically with running and jumping and the staff have been incredible at helping her to strengthen her leg muscles. My youngest has just been potty trained and the staff were fantastic at encouraging this. They respond to any individual needs such as, if you want your child to nap less at nursery so they sleep better at night. Cannot recommend this nursery highly enough!

Great Nursery, my son loves going each week. Lovely caring staff who give regular updates on the app, I can't fault it. Great that you can drop off from 7:30am which is so great for dropping off before work. Covid-19 protection has been great in the last twelve months as well.

Busy Bees at Mardley Hill have been incredible for our daughter, it took her a little while to settle and the team remained patient, making her comfortable. She now absolutely loves it and can't wait to go in and play. She has come on so much from seeing what the other children do and always comes home having done something new at the end of the week. Sadly our daughter has recently had to have an operation, resulting in a full body cast and we couldn't have asked for more from the team adapting her surroundings and looking after her and us! They did this so well so that we don't have to worry. Couldn't recommend them more.

I would not hesitate to recommend Mardley Hill to anyone, it is a wonderful nursery that encourages children to express themselves, develop character and become wonderful caring people.

The nursery offer great communication and it is lovely to always have an insight into what she has been up to. The staff are all very friendly and approachable and it is very much like joining a large family. I would highly recommend the setting to anybody looking for childcare.

It's lovely to get photos during the day on ParentZone to see what they've been doing. The team set up creative activities, cook lovely food (which he always eats) and take them outside. I'm excited to see how my son continues to develop.

I can’t recommend Mardley Hill enough. The staff are amazing and have been there for a long time. They don’t have the high staff turn over that lots of nurseries seem to have. Their communication with parents is extremely comprehensive, and it is lovely to see photos of my daughter doing a wide variety of activities and having so much fun.

Highly recommend to anyone.
