Busy Bees Apsley

The team are excellent with my daughter, continually update parents during the day on the app and give a rundown of the child's day at the end of the shift. Would definitely recommend this nursery.

I do recommend this nursery.

All the staff and management at the nursery are amazing. My son went here when he was small and loved every minute of it, now my little girl goes here and is really enjoying it. Highly recommend Busy Bees Apsley.

I am so happy that we chose this nursery for our boys. They absolutely love it and are always excited to go in the mornings. Both had some settling issues related to not being in a nursery setting over the pandemic but I cannot fault how the staff dealt with it, and how much they love it now is testament to this! Seeing my eldest grow in confidence in pre school in particular has been amazing. The staff are kind, caring and fun, and excellent at keeping parents informed. Highly recommended!

My two children have been attending Busy Bees in Apsley since last June. We are really pleased with the nursery, especially the staff/parent liaisons. As a parent, I feel that they really listen to parents, readily accept feedback and their communication is fantastic. It feels like nothing is too much trouble. My husband and I feel very secure sending our children there. We are always greeted with a smile and my daughter tells me how her teachers are "so nice". I can see both our children developing well.

My son attended Busy Bees Apsley until he went to school last year and my daughter is currently in Toddlers, about to move into Pre-School and they both absolutely love(d) it there. I can’t praise them highly enough. They are caring and always put the welfare and development of the children first. Throughout the pandemic they have been supportive and responsive, always doing their utmost to support me as a key worker and still needing to go to work. The manager and the whole team are absolute stars!

Busy Bees Apsley has support 2 children for nearly 2 years. They have played a huge role in their development and particularly care and support through Covid 19. They pay great attention to detail to the children and their social and emotional development. They are extremely supportive of us as a family also. A great team and really an extended family to us and our children

From exiting covid, our 8-month-old was very untrusting of new faces. Which made it very scary being left in a setting she didn't know and having not even been left with family. Busy Bees Apsley were great. Reassuring to us nervous parents. And she settled in no time. The app is amazing knowing how she's getting on each day and live the photo observations that pop up on my phone at work. It really gives you a sense that you are still involved with their development despite returning to work. It's a lovely nurturing environment where our cheeky little girl is being helped to grow and develop. You can see the staff really care for the children.

Busy Bees in Apsley was the perfect nursery for our then 11-month-old son. He has a great bond with all of his nursery carers who look after him during the two days that he does. They have a wonderful chef on site who prepares great varied meals for the children. Busy Bees have signed up to an App called Parent Zone which is fantastic for live updates of nappy changes, food, and different things that our son has got up to. His end-of-year reviews are very thorough and encouraging. Any emails or issues that you may have with Busy Bees are always answered quickly and thoughtfully. Big fan of the company, so will recommend highly.

What can I say about Busy Bees Apsley! My son started back before Christmas when me and my husband began to return to work. We were both very anxious as we have not left him before but the girls at Apsley have been amazing and put our worries to rest. They have all been so caring and attentive to our son and we couldn't be more grateful if we tried. They follow his routine so well, which has really helped him settle, and they have supported us through our worries. I love how we get daily updates of his nappies, feedings and sleep as well as photos and videos of him playing and learning. It always puts a smile on my face. I want to thank the girls and the manager for all the hard work they do and for taking care of our pride and joy.

Busy Bees Apsley have been an amazing part of our children’s live for two years. Their attention to care, elements of learning and development are brilliant. My son has particularly developed in leaps and bounds because of the child specific support from his key worker. My son adores all his teachers and the staff at Busy Bees Apsley and we as parents feel comforted that our son is so happy at the nursery, we too feel apart of the small nursery community. We highly recommend Busy Bees Apsley and all the staff that support and work at the setting.

Busy Bees Apsley is a great place to send our two year old, who loves it and has been going since she was seven months old. We are impressed by the variety of activities she gets up to and the food that is served to the children. We also like the new app that allows us to track what she's been doing, such as her food, nappies and naps throughout the day and occasionally we see a photo of what she's been doing.

What a wonderful nursery, my daughter loves it. The staff are amazing and I know my daughter is very well looked after. They teach her so many things and she is always smiling when she comes home. She even gets her coat out on a Saturday morning! The care is outstanding but also, I like how good the communication is between myself and the staff. Nothing is too much trouble and I know I can call any time. Being a first time mum, I found it really hard leaving my daughter for the first time but the amazing communication made it so much easier.

The care and learning at Busy Bees Apsley has been above our expectations. After having 2 poor experiences with other childcare providers, it has been a relief to send our 2 children (2 and 4) to nursery where they are safe, stimulated and learning key skills they will use throughout their lives. Staff are supportive, kind and caring and both children thrived at nursery and depart with huge smiles on their faces. I cannot thank them or recommend them enough.

Our daughter is so happy at Busy Bees. The staff are so attentive and have taken the time to help our daughter grow and develop. Her face lights up with excitement each morning at drop off.

Would not recommend the nursery.

I can not recommend this nursery highly enough. All the staff I’ve come into contact with have gone above and beyond to make my daughter feel safe, welcome and happy to be there. We’ve had to make some adjustments to her diet, and the centre director has responded immediately and all the team have been very compliant and supportive during these changes. During lockdown, I felt updated with the status of the nursery re-opening and the measures put in place to ensure staff and child safety.

Well, what can we say about team Apsley? They have done such an outstanding job in this current climate of uncertainty. They have worked so hard to help not only our child but all the children who attend this great nursery. They represent and practice the team ethos and also excel with how they teach, spend quality time and educate everyone. Our firstborn grew up with these ladies so this naturally prompt us to send our second-born there to as our firstborn has grown up to become an outstanding student going into Yr 7. They educate the true values of life and ensure that our children understand them and practice them at nursery and at home. They have played a big part in our child’s upbringing. Thank you.

My daughter loves coming to nursery, she asks every day if she can go. She has learnt so much and loves showing and telling us what she has done that day. The staff are amazing.

I’m am so happy with this nursery. I was a total mess when trying to find childcare for my 2 year old. The Manager was amazing when she showed me round and now my son has settled and completely fallen in love with his key person I’m relaxed when I leave him. I trust them, believe my son is actually cared for and he always comes home messy and happy and this makes my world. Thank you for making my son feel special.
