Review from Julie B (Mother of Child) published on 14 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter literally skips into nursery each day - she loves it! This leaves me with such confidence and comfort, knowing I can go to work and she is happy and cared for. The staff are all so friendly, compassionate and experts in the field of child development. My daughter has learnt so much in her first year there. She is now 22 months old and, I feel, that she has developed so much more than if I didn't work and she were at home with me every day! She comes home each day and has been painting, or doing crafts or cooking - she seems to have learnt a new word, song or action every day. She thrives there.

The facilities are impeccable. The building is secure and warm, there is a safe outside area for the children to play and each room has ample space for all manner of activities.

Thank you to all at Busy Bees for allowing me the peace of mind while I work, knowing that my daughter is safe, cared for and is receiving a terrific and fun educational start in life!

Review from A C (Mother of Child) published on 7 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Like any mother dropping their child off at nursery for the first time, I was apprehensive. Three years on and I cannot have hoped for better. Extreme thought goes into every detail - from the layout of the rooms in a beautiful Grade II listed setting to nutritious food prepared fresh on site every day to making each and every child's experience as enjoyable as possible. The wellbeing of each and every child is top of the agenda. The highly trained staff strive to tailor their care to individual needs which encourage the children's full potential. The staff are a credit to the nursery; they communicate well with parents and set an excellent example for the children. It is a credit to them that the children are polite, courteous and considerate towards others. The range of activities offered are thoughtful and creative. The garden could do with being bigger but it is one of the best I have seen in the area; it is well set out and oozes good quality equipment which promotes exploration.

Review from Lara M M (Mother of Child) published on 4 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The nursery has always been fantastic. All the carers from the ones you see daily, to the office staff and kitchen staff are incredibly welcoming, friendly and provide a super service to the children. I've had two that started in the baby room, and there have been tears but very short lived and now my girls barely give me a glance back as the skip happily into their rooms. They deserve to acquire the land next to playground to extend their outdoor space, as it is sufficient but, for children; they can easily fill every corner!

Review from Joanna I (Mother of Child) published on 4 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

All three of my children have attended Busy Bees Haywards Heath over the last seven years which is a testimony to their truly outstanding work. There is a feeling that overwhelms as you enter the nursery, one that I have never felt anywhere else...it's difficult to define because it is everywhere and in everything they do - warmth, kindness , joy , happiness , fun and laughter. Every member of staff goes the extra mile and exudes passion for developing the children in their care! I could not be happier with how my children have been cared for and supported and confidently say that they are growing into the wonderful people they are in part due to the incredible Early Years experiences they had at Busy Bees!

Review from Nicola B (Mother of Child) published on 4 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The nursery is run very efficiently, with very professional staff. It's always clean and well presented, with good play equipment. Although it is situated in an old chapel, the inside of the building has a modern feel, and there's a play area outside which the children can be taken out to.
The food is freshly prepared on site, with a 3-weekly menu which is changed every season and my child always enjoys the meals there, and eats everything. His special dietary requests are well catered for and taken very seriously.
There is a lot of free play, and they also have learning initiatives such as 'babble to chatter' and 'shake and write'.

The staff are always friendly and have a good attitude towards the children, which I'm sure goes a long way to nurturing their confidence and self-esteem. If I ever ask anything, they will always remember to follow it up and look into things for me. My son is in the preschool room and looks forward to going to nursery and has made some lovely friendships.
