My child seems happy in this nursery. The room is quite big. Staff are very professional. I’ve been recommended by a colleague and I am not disappointed.
All the girls are lovely and welcoming, always on hand to help out with queries or if there is a problem. I love sending my son here and I am so glad I did! I would happily recommend this nursery to anyone.
Thanks girls!
My husband and I are both very happy with the care for my son who has been at the nursery since 9 months old (he is now 19 months).
The food is great and I love the fact my son tries new food/recipes we wouldn't otherwise make at home.
The only negative; it would be ideal to have more communication regarding parents evening, dress up days and perhaps reminders if an event is coming up. Having a busy life, it is easily forgotten.
I have also recommended a friend who now takes his son there and she is also happy with the care.
The staff are friendly and engage with me on a regular basis. They have been excellent in dealing with my son's allergies, where they provide separate plates and one to one monitoring when eating. They were amazing and supporting with dealing with an emergency with my son's health which resulted in an ambulance being called and were extremely professional.
Busy Bees Apsley are amazing and I couldn't be happier leaving my son there.
Excellent staff who really care for the children always welcoming and have a genuine interest in the children rather than just about the money. Always clean, our child always comes back well fed, happy and smiley. Would recommend to anyone.
Thank you for such valued feedback. Our staff strive to offer the best possible care for your children and I'm pleased to see we are succeeding in this.
My son is very happy here. I like that staff know his name and make him feel welcome when we arrive in the morning. The nursery is always clean and staff are very friendly.
Thank you so much for feedback we value all of our parent's opinions.
My Son attended here and now my Daughter. She loves coming here, never any tears as she has such a good time and has such a good rapport with the staff. I am kept up to date about her development and what she has been up to that day, including eating and sleeping. It’s safe and she’s happy - what more can you ask for!
Thank you so much for your amazing feedback. We really appreciate your loyalty to the nursery.
Very happy with the service that the nursery provides. We have found significant improvement over the four years we have used the nursery - the staff are excellent and supportive. We receive good feedback on progress of our kids.
Thank you so much for your feedback and your continued loyalty to the nursery.
I am very pleased with my daughter's developments at Busy Bees Apsley so far. She has grown in confidence and is comfortable with all the staff across the nursery.
She always engaged and they carry out various activities and events throughout the year.
The nursery is always very accommodating when it comes to emergency care too. We have requested days at very short notice and been fortunate to be supported.
Overall very pleased with Busy Bees Apsley.
Thank you so much for your fantastic feedback.
Busy Bees Nursery in Apsley is great. My son absolutely loves going to nursery. From the second we drop him off he smiles from ear to ear and always is smiling when I pick him up. I’m always told about his activities during his day and what he has eaten and if he managed to get some sleep in during his day but he’s usually having far to much fun to squeeze a nap in.
Thank you so much for your valued feedback. I'm so pleased you and your son are happy and enjoying your time at Busy Bees Apsley!
We have had our daughter there for 12 months now and it's so reassuring to have found a placement, where our daughter is learning, socialising and being looked after to such a high standard, whilst myself and my wife have to work.
Special thanks goes to a few members of staff in particular.
Thank you for all you do and going the extra mile at times of need.
It's greatly appreciated.
Every day my daughter comes home happy and gets excited to go back in the morning.
A fantastic nursery, the staff are so friendly, caring, helpful and smiling. A brilliant nursery and couldn't recommend higher.
Keep it up! Excellent work!
Thank you for your kind feedback.
Changed my child's nursery and have started at Busy Bees in spring this year. The staff are very reassuring and have made us feel confident in our child's happiness. My son has come on well and sings songs he has learnt, eats well and has fun. My only area I would like to see is trips out of nursery. When we looked around initially we where advised kids get to go out to local park and canal, this hasn't happened yet.
The nursery has an excellent learning structure and since my son has attended he is engaged. He tells us what he has done with his day and his enthusiasm demonstrates he has had a fun time learning and playing; as a result, we have seen such an improvement in his confidence.
His speech and sentence structure have vastly improved. He comes home and regularly bursts into song, which is something that never happened at his previous nursery.
The staff are helpful, polite and are excellent role models. When speaking with the staff it is clear that they care a lot about the children and their development.
Any concerns are addressed straight away and explanations are provided, giving us complete confidence in the nursery.
I visited the nursery back in April, I immediately fell in love. The staff members seemed lovely and I liked how all the rooms had great displays and lots of fun activities. I especially like the idea of the canteen in the preschool room, it reflected what it would be like at school. My daughter has been coming since May and is always happy, talking about all the fun things she does here. I would highly recommend Busy Bees Apsley nursery.
My son had been going to Busy Bees for a few months now and is very pleased with the care he receives here.
Our daughter has been attending the nursery for about 3 months now and overall we are really pleased with it. There is a wide variety of food offered and the children are always allowed to have second helpings if they want to! There are lots of different activities and toys for the children to do and play with as well. The staff seem very thorough and really interested in the development of all the children - would recommend!!
Great nursery...My daughter loves attending and she has a great bond with the staff and other children.
My children are due to start this week and I have visited the nursery numerous times now. The staff are always so pleasant, the children are always happy and well cared for and the facilities are the cleanest I have seen in all the nurseries I viewed. We were made to feel so welcome on our settling in days and I look forward to hearing about all the fun things my children get up to.
A very caring environment with lovely staff and an efficient friendly manager. All the staff are considerate and the communication is fantastic. If I mention anything to one staff members all the staff will be aware of this information on the same day. I have a baby and a toddler at the nursery and am very happy here.
