Busy Bees Hempstead

For the rest I would highly recommend this nursery.

The Afterschool club staff look after my older two now, they do an amazing job with making sure they are fed and happy. The ladies at club plan exciting activities suitable for my children and there is always an upbeat atmosphere when I collect them. I would recommend the nursery and Afterschool club to friends and family. The nursery staff work hard to create a caring and secure environment.

And lastly we love the songs he comes home singing, our favourite at the moment is: Twinkle twinkle chocolate bar.

Daughter has attended here since she was 2, as a mum, I was worried about leaving her but oh my, she settled in quick as the staff here are lovely and won’t see an upset child. She is now 3 and loves nursery she has learnt so much and has turned into a wonderful child.

Both of my sons attend Busy Bees Hempstead, both since 7-8 months old. Both settled in quickly the staff are so warm and friendly, they have a lovley rapport with staff and are progressing well. They look forward to coming and that is all down the staff and lovely atmosphere created. I have and will continue to recommend this nursery to others.

The whole team are extremely warm and caring and have gone out of their way to help with any individual requests. All areas of childcare are excellent and admin has been very efficient. The children are always happy and enjoy the varied play.

Lovely nursery, I’m always very pleased with the staff. My son has always been very happy here and he moved from another Busy Bees nursery and this one is well above most of the others. My only issue is the food is sometimes a little strange taste for their age group.

She will really miss Busy Bees when she goes to big school!!

The whole homely feel is wonderful. The staff so welcoming. A lovely large garden for the children to play in. Food is cooked and served in house. I knew within minutes this was my son's nursery. He absolutely loves going here and the staff definitely bring out the best in him for fun and educational purposes.

Lovely friendly nursery. My daughter loves her morning sessions. Staff are all friendly and welcoming and provide very good care. The nursery is always clean and toys and play equipment always look in very good condition.

So glad we found this nursery. The staff are all excellent and have a real enthusiasm for their work which shows immediately in the way they interact with the children. Our little girl really enjoys her days there and felt settled in a very short space of time, which I have no doubt is due to the excellent staff.

As soon as I walked into the nursery I just knew it was the nursery for our 2 year old after viewing 5 others in the area. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. My little girl didn't want to leave, she started 2weeks later. She absolutely loves it and we are so happy we found this nursery.

We fell in love with this nursery the moment we visited it. It can very daunting for parents to leave their children when returning to work and we wanted to find a place that we felt would feel like home to our daughter and this one is. The moment we stepped in the Baby Bungalow we knew this was the right one for her and for us. Fast forward 3 years and she still loves it and is now in the Preschool Room. We are so pleased that she has experienced nursery here. The staff are wonderful, always loving and caring. They love what they do and that is important. It will be a sad chapter when she has to leave the security of the nursery and start a new adventure in school.

My child has settled in very well. Staff are very caring and nurturing, diligent and show keen observations. My child has come on leaps and bounds since starting, he is being stretched developmentally, and has an individual learning plan.

Amazing nursery! Such a warm and friendly atmosphere every time I walk in. Couldn't fault it at all, my daughter has come on leaps and bounds since joining in 2016, especially with her speech and communication, so glad I chose this nursery.

They have taken both our children from 9 months old and have helped them develop into amazing little people. The services offered are excellent and really help with every facet of intellectual as well as emotional development.

Choosing a nursery as a parent is always quite a daunting experience. Knowing your child will be happy, looked after and happy is so important. From the moment my husband and I visited Busy Bees at Hempstead, we knew this was the right place! All the staff are so friendly, kind and patient. They helped with settling in and made every effort to make that transition as easy and comfortable as possible. To hear our little boy come home and talk about all the staff and how happy he is is simply lovely. He has come on so much in such a short time and absolutely loves nursery!

My daughter is very confident and already taking a few steps at 10 months which I think is due a lot to being around the 'wobblers.'

The staff are friendly and warm and it was comforting knowing that they would be well looked after and enjoy their day whilst away from me whilst I worked. I have lots of paintings and crafty bits from their days at nursery along with a folder documenting their days. Also, an added bonus was when they did a full day at nursery I didn't have to cook an evening meal as they were well fed by their chef!!

The nursery staff all genuinely care about the children in their care. When we moved into the area my two children started at the same time, one was 10 months and the other 2 years 10 months so they started in the baby room and toddler room. They moved through the rooms with the help of settling in sessions which really helped their transition. My children learnt a lot of social and communication skills which prepared them for school, both children have progressed to school age now but they often say they miss nursery and they remember their carer's very well. The opening hours are good (which was a big factor in choosing the nursery) and the staff are really keen to help if you have any concerns, they go the extra mile to reassure you and never mind if you telephone to check if your child is settled and enjoying their day.
