Review from S R (Mother of Child) published on 21 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our baby boy started there at 9 months old and is now 18 months, and we've been really pleased with the care he's received. The staff have been attentive, supportive, and dedicated. Each member of the team brings their own unique style, which creates a lovely, well-rounded environment for the children.
We've seen a positive difference in his development, especially with the range of activities that support not just learning but also emotional growth. It's clear how much thought and effort goes into helping the children feel secure, confident, and engaged.
The biggest reassurance for us is seeing how happy he is-he smiles when he arrives and often doesn't want to leave at the end of the day, which says everything.

They have also been incredibly understanding when we needed flexibility as a family, which we truly appreciated. While the team is always professional and positive, it's clear they work incredibly hard behind the scenes, and we feel very lucky to have found them.

Our son has been going to this nursery for over 3 years now and it's been perfect for him. Our son has a genuine connection with the teachers and staff. We will be sad when he leaves for primary school

Wonderful Nursery Experience
We've had such a fantastic experience with this nursery over the past three years. The staff are incredibly caring and friendly, creating a warm and welcoming environment that made my child feel safe and happy from day one.
The nursery is always clean and well-organized, and the team goes above and beyond to make the children feel special. My daughter formed a lovely bond with a few members of staff, and she will truly miss them - they've played such an important role in her early years.
From dress-up days and themed celebrations to joyful Christmas and summer parties, the nursery always finds ways to make learning fun and memorable. The graduation ceremony was especially heartfelt and beautifully done - a perfect way to mark the end of her nursery journey.

I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent. Watching my child grow from the baby room into the confident, kind, and curious little person she is today is a true testament

Review from Ashleigh L (Mother of Child) published on 9 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has been at Busy Bees for over 18 months, she was a very clingy and sensitive baby and I was extremely worried about her not settling. The staff have been absolutely wonderful with her, from the baby room to the toddler room and now spending some time in the preschool room - the staff all know her so well, gave her time to come out of her shell and she loves them all. After every pickup she tells us what games her teachers played with her, what books they read to her and who she played with that day.
Every parent is given a few minutes of face to face feedback with staff at pick up which is much appreciated - can get a really good feel for how their day has been.
Our daughter has an allergy and this has been handled really well. Lovely meals cooked on site.

The staff are all wonderful and have created a really lovely caring environment for the children, our daughter is very attached to her teachers and we're going to miss them so much!

My son started Busy Bees Cheam Nursery in January. The nursery is very clean and the staff is very friendly. My son has been doing nice activities and socializing since he started nursery. I can also follow what my son does daily from the application. We are very pleased with our nursery, I recommend it.

Overall Experience

We moved our son to Busy Bees after moving into the area last year. The staff were so welcoming and the environment of the nursery is very homely and that helped him to settle in way faster than we expected. He loves going and always has lots of stories about his friends, activities and carers. It's clear that he has a good relationship with everyone and feels very comfortable and happy.

Review from Eloise K (Mother of Child) published on 28 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been at Busy Bees since he was 1 and he loves it. The staff are great and always really friendly, he talks about them all the time when at home. They constantly update the app with information on what they’ve eaten, nappies and regular photos of what they’ve been up to. Also love the snapshots they upload to the app with updates on their learning progress. It’s nice to know what they get up to when they’re not with you. They are always doing fun activities and he comes home with lots of paintings and talking of the fun he had playing in the garden. I’d highly recommend this nursery and I look forward to my daughter starting there next year.

The ladies are lovely and very welcoming, my daughter loves coming to nursery and has such a great time every day! She has come such a long way with her speech since starting and has learnt so much! They do such an amazing job with the children each day and as a parent you couldn’t ask for a better place to take your child.

Review from Eva M (Mother of Child) published on 28 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son loves coming to Busy Bees Nursery. There’s a wonderful range of activities provided for the children, and a strong bond of trust established with the staff. The meals are healthy and he enjoys the food there, we think it’s helped him become less fussy about food having eaten as part of a group with other children helping to ‘normalise’ the foods that he was previously wary of. It’s helpful to have the briefing from staff at the end of the day, of how it’s gone. Overall, the environment seems professional, secure and fun. It’s very good to have the use of a safe enclosed garden, our son always looks forward to that part of the day if the weather is nice.

My child has been at Busy Bees Cheam Sutton for almost four years, since she was a baby. She loves her teachers in pre-school and is happy to go in every morning. She will happily tell me what she has been up to and about her teachers when she comes home. Her activities include time outside in the garden, sensory and messy play, phonics and numbers, painting and crafts, story time and free play.

Review from Rachel S (Mother of Child) published on 28 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son loves his time at Busy Bees Nursery and is always so happy at drop-off and excited to talk about his day when we pick him up. The nursery has a lovely welcoming atmosphere and the team at the nursery are really friendly, helpful and supportive. The activities they organise are so varied and creative with different themes every week and it feels like a lot of time and thought goes into them - from crafts and sensory play to song and story time. Our son has really grown in confidence since being at Busy Bees and his language development has been amazing, as well as how much he loves playing with his friends there. Weekly emails to parents from the nursery are really helpful as are the daily updates on the app.

Review from Emma D (Mother of Child) published on 28 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Busy Bees Sutton is a great nursery setting, the team are kind, caring and really care about each child’s personal development and needs. Our son has been attending since January 2022 as he just turned one and has settled nicely into the nursery, he is coming along so well with his speech and development. People often comment about how our son is so confident in social situations and we believe this is due to his time spent at nursery with everyone. The nursery setting provides lots of space to play, plenty of stimulating activities and a lovely garden space for the children to enjoy. There’s always lots of fun activities going on at the nursery provided by the management team, which is always fun for the children to be involved in - there’s always a monthly email to remind you of key dates for the month ahead! Overall we are very happy with Busy Bees Sutton - thank you so much!

Review from Amy D (Mother of Child) published on 13 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has attended Busy Bees since he was 11 months old, straight from being a lockdown baby and never being left with anyone, especially ‘strangers’. I was really apprehensive but really didn’t need to be. All the staff were amazing and having daily updates via the app was so reassuring for a new mum returning to work having never left her baby.
He is now in the preschool room, and there hasn’t been a day that he hasn’t run in the door, more often than not without a backwards glance. He is so excited to tell me about all the activities he’s been up to and the things he’s been learning. He’s made an excellent group of friends, and all the staff are informative and caring.

My second child is due in late 2023, and they have already been signed up to start 2024 - I wouldn’t have even thought to look elsewhere!

Review from Lam A (Mother of Child) published on 13 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been at Busy Bees Sutton since he was 14 months old and staying there until he starts school next year. The staff has been amazing and supportive throughout his time there. We've loved seeing how much he has developed and learnt each day. He is always excited to go to nursery each morning and he tells me all the names of his friends he is going to see that day. We can tell he enjoys the activities the nursery sets out each week and he enjoys bringing home his artwork and feels very proud of it. He has developed into such a character since joining and we can't wait to see how it will develop further down the line. Thank you, team.

The carers have been very helpful and supportive to my son. He is new to the UK and he barely spoke English when he first went to Busy Bees. The staff has been very patient with him, they will tell me what he does during the day, in detail and my son loves going to Busy Bees.
