My son has been at Meredale Day Nursery for nearly a year now and it was the best decision we made. He loves his days at nursery and particularly likes music days. The staff are genuinely caring and interested and have helped my son flourish in his time here. I particularly like that they have lots of outdoor time. He gets a healthy balanced diet and really couldn't be happier with the care he receives.
My daughter's key worker is amazing and can't fault her at all. She makes my daughter feel safe and happy to go to nursery.
Would highly recommend.
Lovely nursery, my daughter loves it. It's clean and the nursery staff are lovely. Facilities and space are very good.
My daughter has been attending Meredale since she was seven months old and is now almost two. She attends Meredale five days per week, and I couldn't feel any more reassured! The staff are great, Key Worker is amazing and the facilities are good! All in all, we have a very happy two year old.
My 2-year-old started at Meredale in March for 2 days a week. The staff have been really supportive in helping him settle in, as he’s been getting upset having to leave me in the morning but whenever I call for an update they’re always really informative about what he’s been up to and every time I pick him up, he’s happy and telling me what he’s been doing. It’s a lovely nursery in a lovely setting with great staff.
The staff have always been very supportive and caring of my needs and most importantly my children's needs.
Since my son joined the nursery when he was 10 months old, he has come on so much with his development physically and socially. At 13 months, he is walking confidently and trying to learn new words and skills.
He loves going each day and has developed great relationships with the staff. I see this by how happy he is each morning.
My girls started in August of last year and have been very happy.
The room is big, light and has lots of different areas and types of play. The girls' key workers know the girls and are aware of their likes and dislikes.
I would recommend Meredale to anyone looking for a nursery.
My daughter has been attending the nursery since she was 10 months old and is now the oldest in the nursery. She has developed in confidence and is showing a genuine interest in learning which is supported by the wonderful staff at Meredale Busy Bees. They are very attentive and care deeply for the children. The vast amount of activies she does in a week is great. My daughter will miss her time here when she starts school in September. The staff are also very good at keeping the parents informed of progress on any challenges that they have seen in the children.
The key workers are extremely helpful, informative and attentive to my child's needs. There are a variety of activities day to day and a host of events outside the day to day running that she thoroughly enjoys. There are new things on the menu and the set up of the play area, toilet facilities and recent addition to a child-friendly computer in the pre-school room was a real buzz to her!
My 2 1/2 yr old son started the nursery in April and loves coming, after visiting a few local nurseries there was no comparison the staff are friendly, welcoming and have s great play environment for children, can not recommend this nursery highly enough.
Fantastic with my son's development and high nursery standards. So impressed with how the development is fed back (ie. for my sons 2 year review).
I am very happy with my child development, thank you to all the staff at Meredale nursery. They make me feel at ease and relaxed whenever I drop my daughter off.
My daughter loves going to nursery, she is in a great routine and she always has healthy meals. The team work with her to help her develop new skills. When picking my daughter up I’m told what she has got up to, what she has eaten and how long she has been to sleep. I visited a number of nurseries in the area and this was by far the best.
Very proud to say my son attends this nursery. Professional but very friendly staff, my son looks forward to nursery every day and I couldn’t recommend it more.
My daughter settled really well into this nursery. The staff are really excellent and have been really gentle with her.
They are incredibly trustworthy and are working closely with us and her to support her development.
My litter boy has been with the nursery since he was little. He started baby group when he was 1 year old. He is now nearly 2.5 yrs old in toddler group. Staff are amazing, especially baby group. They have created such a great atmosphere for my little boy settle from when he was little. They helped him settle in toddler group in no time. I would recommend the nursery as the staff take on board any feedback or suggestions and aim to improve all the time. I felt my voice been heard and they always so supportive to help support the parent and children. My little boy develops so much in speech and other areas. They offer different activities. The nursery always very clean and staffs are always helping. I hope they keep maintaining their level of care and I strongly recommend it.
My son has been attending there over a year now. He is always happy to stay there. The girls really care about the children and work to support their different needs.
Would recommend to family and friends.
Very happy with my son's development at Meredale. All of the classroom assistants seem genuinely invested in my sons well being. They do lots of different activities and my sons lucky enough to attend on days where they have a music lesson and football training (which he loves).

Hello, my name is Kirsty and I have been with the company since May 2010. I hold my level 3 diploma in childcare and my level 5 degree in leadership and management. My journey with Busy Bees started off at Maidstone Allington nursery in 2010, where I started as pre school room manager and worked my way up. In September 2019, I started my new adventure here at Busy Bees in Rainham. I am looking forward to welcoming you into our homely nursery and working closely with you to ensure your child has the best start in life.
I am a mum of two, who have also been through their busy bees journeys over the years and are both now at school. We enjoy spending time with each other as a family, going out on adventures and of course, I enjoy socialising with my friends, this usually means trips to the cinema and meals out.
