Review from Luke E (Father of Child) published on 21 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Wonderful staff, organised, very responsive and professional - but also genuinely caring and human. Lovely people!
We were nervous about putting our first child in nursery as we've seen other places and were often shocked at how they were run. But Busy Bees has been exceptional and surpassed our expectations for our little one who has thrived here.

The kids food is also ridiculously good!

Review from Megan H (Mother of Child) published on 7 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This nursery is fantastic. I was such an anxious parent before coming to Busy Bees, as my little one was so shy. But all the staff there are so lovely and welcoming, and really put my mind at ease about the transition into nursery with my child. The change and development with my little one since starting until now is just amazing. I cannot thank you all enough. From being the most shy and nonverbal to now a chatterbox with so much confidence, the staff at Busy Bees made this possible. The gardens are so lovely here for the kids. I would highly recommend it.

Overall Experience
Excellent staff, good communication. Hard-working and have a genuine care for all the children. Each member of staff takes the time to ensure the parent is happy when they collect their children.
Constantly doing fun activities and taking the children outside.

All in all, couldn’t have picked a better nursery for my baby girl.

Overall Experience
My daughter has been going here from January 2023, it was a transition from childminders to nursery, to get ready for school. The staff are all lovely and explain their day-to-day activities and the food they have eaten. Lots of lovely photos of them uploaded on the app.
A perfect place for her to learn and grow, she has also made some lovely friends.

Will be sad to see her leave but excited for the next chapter.

Review from K K (Mother of Child) published on 27 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have two children at Busy Bees, one in the preschool room and the other in the baby room. My children and I love every member of staff, they are present and engaged with the children all the time and encourage them to learn and develop.
My experience with this nursery and 85% of the staff members, goes all the way back to late 2020 and I have zero complaints.

We are all very happy with Busy Bees and I am sure we will continue to be until my youngest is ready for reception.

My son has been full-time at Busy Bees Worthing for a few months now and it’s been great for him. The staff are so friendly and engaging, it’s really helped his development. It’s reassuring to know he is so well looked after and the regular updates via the app are really useful.

Our son has been at this nursery since 9 months old and has absolutely thrived and has a brilliant relationship with both the staff and children. We felt safe sending our child during covid and the app interaction we have in relation to updates is great. We will continue to use this nursery in the future.

Review from Abbie R (Mother of Child) published on 20 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot recommend Busy Bees Worthing highly enough - from the initial showing around I was immediately reassured and felt comfortable for my baby to attend. The carers are all lovely and the nursery itself is full of educational entertainment for the children, and I was so impressed with the meal options! They were always happy to accommodate any special requests and worked with us to ensure our baby is happy and comfortable, as well as giving some fantastic advice that as new parents we were particularly grateful for! Don’t know what we’d do without them, thank you Busy Bees!

We absolutely love Busy Bees! The entire team are so kind and caring towards our little one. They provide a really varied food menu, full of healthy fruits and veggies and protein. The gardens, front and back, are fab and provide so much outdoor space for activities and exploring. I highly recommend this setting, it's been a wonderful and nurturing environment for our little one.

Review from Charli E (Mother of Child) published on 20 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been going to Busy Bees since he was 2 and had an additional year there due to not being ready to start school. He has Autism and needs an extra eye being kept on him as well as extra patience, understanding and love, all of which he gets in spades whilst at nursery. The staff are all so kind and friendly we will miss seeing them each day when he finally goes to school this September.

Overall Experience

My child has some separation issues with leaving me and cries each time but all the lovely ladies that are with her calm her down within minutes and they are so reassuring to me as I am a worrier. Since my child has come to this nursery her speech has come on so well we love it here and have nothing but positive things to say about it thank you so much to all the staff for being amazing.

Busy Bees at Worthing is a fantastic nursery. Offering great childcare for my daughter. They are very caring staff and reassuring team who always show they want the best for us. I love receiving photos of everything that she has been up to and makes me feel like I am being included in all of her experiences. She is always happy going into nursery and has great bonds with all the staff.

Overall Experience

The care that both my daughters have received is exemplary. My youngest is in the pre-school room and I have no doubt she will transition seamlessly to school due to the experiences she has had at Busy Bees. The staff have consistently demonstrated compassion, humour, kindness and above all excellent care. I would thoroughly recommend to anyone.

Overall Experience

I can't recommend Busy Bees highly enough! The staff at Busy Bees are so welcoming and friendly. They always go out of their way to help you as a parent and your child. They have handled the COVID situation really well and put in place safety measures when you enter through the gate. The managers are fabulous and have been so supportive. Any issues are dealt with straight away. Both my children have attended this nursery and they have just loved their experiences there. The rooms are inviting and there's lots of space both in the rooms and outside. Thank you Busy Bees!

Overall Experience

My son settled really well into the Busy Bees setting. The staff have been great, he managed to form strong bonds with the team in his room. He enjoys all the activities, painting, and doing messy things that I won't let him do at home. We are really happy with the nursery, from the food to the environment. We know our son is always having a great day.

My son has been going here since he was a baby so has grown up there now he is nearly 4. He loves it when he is there and has made many great friends. I can’t say enough good things about the nursery from the excellent staff to the premises itself. All are a great standard. Definitely an A+ nursery.

Review from Sarah A (Mother of Child) published on 2 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been going to Busy Bees since he was 11 months old and he is now in his final year at pre-school. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and care so much for all the children and I trust them completely with my son. He has so much fun there and we will miss them so much when we leave next August. If you are looking for a traditional nursery where the children get to play, interact with each other, and use their imagination playing games and singing then this in my opinion is the best nursery in Worthing.
