What stands out most is the genuine dedication, warmth and care shown by the entire team. They take the time to get to know every child as an individual, understand their needs and personalities, and make sure they feel loved, secure and valued. We have been particularly touched by the wonderful bond the staff have developed with our daughter and the affection and attention they show her every day.
The nursery provides such a lovely range of learning experiences and activities, carefully designed to support the children's development while also making learning fun and engaging. It is wonderful to see how much she has learned and grown since joining and we all will miss them.

But staff were amazing, very kind and accomodating, asked me for a list of words he can say so they can communicate...fast forward to now, English is his main language, he is fluent and pulls out words even I struggle to understand, and he loves it there, has got several favourite staff members and sometimes even refuses to leave!
On the side notes, it's always clean there, we keep receiving updates what our child ate - and he seems to eat everything there, picky eater only at home!
We also always know what is he doing, how is he doing, handovers are great, and we get notifications about his learning and activities taking place.
So our 2nd child, will definitely go to Busy Bees :)

His physical, social, and emotional development from day one to now has been amazing, which is testament to the learning and support framework they have created.
He has made so many friends there, including the staff, who all go out of their way to make him so comfortable and happy in the environment and free to be himself. (Special shoutout to Ellie and Annie, his favourite dream team)
I would have no hesitation to send another child there or recommend them to any of our friends. Thank you!

Our daughter attended pre-school for 18 months and her development has been incredible. She grew so much in confidence, independence and so many other areas and we feel the care and encouragement she received played a huge part in preparing her for the next step. The nursery worked seamlessly with us and were always supportive.
Our son has been there since he was one and is still attending. He settled so quickly and felt at home within just a few sessions. His development has come on so much, and it's lovely to see how happy, confident and settled he is.
The staff are amazing, caring and genuinely know the children as individuals. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful nursery and are incredibly grateful to the whole team.
We absolutely love this nursery and couldn't recommend it enough!
My little girl has thrived at Busy Bees, she's been there since she was 2 years old and will be leaving to go to school in a couple of weeks. All the staff are incredible and so nurturing and caring for all the children, such a lovely environment and my daughter runs in every time so excited to see...
I originally picked busy bees as my son went there when he was little, best decision ever to entrust them with my children, they will be greatly missed!
All 3 of my children have attended Busy Bees St Neots from Babies to starting school.
Every room gave them a unique experience tailored to their interests, freedom and creatively. Safety was always a key priority, but it never stopped them having fun - I always loved the various images and videos...
All 3 of my children have attended Busy Bees St Neots from Babies to starting school.
Every room gave them a unique experience tailored to their interests, freedom and creatively. Safety was always a key priority, but it never stopped them having fun - I always loved the various images and videos I would get of them weekly. The team have been great and it will be really sad to say goodbye to so many people we have got to know, the children build such tight bonds with the keyworkers.
Thank you for a great experience, its been a wonderful 6 years.
My daughter loves coming to nursery. She loves the staff and has made lots of friends. I love reading the updates throughout the day. I feel really confident that she is learning lots and doing so many enriching activities.

Each room has perfectly supported our children at every stage of their development, with excellent facilities and a wide variety of activities and we've felt their learning has been thoughtfully supported and very well documented.
The staff are fantastic and genuinely caring. The children spend as much time as possible in the garden, which is also very well equipped. End of day handovers are always thorough and informative, and the app provides consistent updates throughout the day.
We've been part of the Busy Bees family for four years. We've always felt welcomed, and our children have been made to feel truly valued and cared for. This nursery holds a very special place in our hearts and we can't thank the wonderful staff enough - thank you for everything.
The staff are so patient with him and so friendly. We get to drop off and pick up in his room and chat to staff and receive updates throughout the day. It's a clean, welcoming environment and he loves going.

We have our daughter at this nursery and, while every nursery has its ups and downs, the team went above and beyond for us yesterday. Due to a car accident, we were unable to make the standard 6 pm pickup time. The staff were incredibly understanding, reassuring, and kind. They took excellent care of our daughter until we could arrive, turning a very stressful situation into a manageable one.

Having had my daughter in nursery from 9 months, me and her father spent time looking around appropriate nursery that we felt our daughter would gain the most knowledge and preparation for school. Somewhere she would feel comfortable, have the ability to have plenty of fun, lots of nature and role play, while still have an element of structure in place to prepare our daughter for her next steps from early years to primary school. As soon as we walked in to Busy Bees we knew we found the right nursery for our daughter. I can honestly say our daughter has had the best experience being at Busy Bees, she has thrived with every room and has thoroughly excelled hitting all her learning targets and is fully ready for school. She has made some lovely friends and her key workers have all been so attentive to her needs and have her utmost best interests at heart. I will truly miss bringing my daughter to Busy Bees and it was very sad to say goodbye. Thank you Busy Bees, we will miss you a lot.
We love Busy Bees St Neots. They have always taken such good care of our daughter. Everyone has time for her and are genuinely interested in her and what she does outside of nursery. At the end of everyday they take the time to explain what she's been doing and how she has been. She always eats...

My son has been at Busy Bees since he was 1 and absolutely loves it. We have found all the staff to be extremely friendly, helpful and supportive. Every staff member says hello and knows my little boys name even if he is yet to reach their room. We always get a detailed account of what he has been up to each day on pick up which we really appreciate. His key workers are great at getting to know his likes and go above and beyond in making sure they have activities set up that will spike his interest. I would recommend Busy Bees to any new parents looking for their child.

My son has been attending Busy Bees at St Neots since he was 9 months old & is now approaching the time to leave to start school. Since starting, my son has enjoyed being a part of every room from baby through to preschool. Walking in, we are always greeted with smiling faces, warm welcomes & breakfast on the table. My sons imagine has been able to flourish at nursery & it knows no bounds. Busy Bees has allowed him to be brave enough to be himself & has taught him how to recognise his emotions which have made different processes at home & out about alot more enjoyable as he has been able to express what he is really feeling. Nursery rhymes & story time is a big talking point for my son & really enjoys showing & telling me about the things they have been learning, talking about & exploring. There is always fun activities at the ready as well as having the space to be alone & have quiet time. The gardens are always a fun time too. We love Busy Bees & will be using them for our next child

Busy Bees St Neots has looked after my son since he was 6 months old until he finished this April to move on to pre-school and I cannot thank them all enough for everything they have done these last three years. The warm welcome every single morning from the minute you walk through the door and are greeted by the wonderful manager and/or deputy manager, through any staff you pass in the corridors who always make an effort to stop and say hello, into the room where our keyworkers and room staff are always there with a smile on their face with brilliant activities set up and toast at the ready. Since my son has attended Busy Bees, he has absolutely flourished, he is confident and brave and I am so grateful to all the staff for everything they have done to nurture his character. He formed an incredibly strong bond with each of his key workers, all taking real care to get to know him and what his interests are and made an effort to enter his world and become such huge parts of it. Thank you!
The nursery is very good, the staff are always very friendly and caring, my children love going there.

My son has so much fun at Busy Bees Nursery. He has been attending since he was six months old and is now leaving for school. He has grown as a confident, polite, courteous child thanks to the staff onsite. The rooms are clean, even though they are well used and the activities vary to ensure the children are constantly engaged. The staff are all passionate about making sure the children have fun and they take time to hear how my son's weekend has been. Anything he is proud of, they listen and encourage him to share with his peers. The food is also amazing. We wish the chef would share her recipes!

We love Busy Bees and how much they care. Recently they acquired a new bird table in memory of a little one. They involved the preschool children in voting for their favourite bird table design. Once the bird table arrived, they also involved them in planting flowers and preparing a little garden around it. We love how much they care about children and nature and how the little ones learn more about values and caring for others. Our daughter also has a lot of fun every day and almost jumps out of bed on her Busy Bees days. She loves story time, her keyworker, all the creative activities and exploring the garden with her friends. It is like home away from home.

I would highly recommend Busy Bees nursery St Neots to any parent. My daughter has been attending the nursery since she was less than 12 months old. As parents we feel we are lucky to have found the right place for our child. The staff are so caring and look after her very well - right from the baby room, toddler room and now pre-school. The nursery have a very detailed activity plan for each week, which are very engaging for the child. Meals provided are very healthy and my daughter enjoys her lunch and snacks. The biggest compliment I can give about the nursery is that my child attends 5 days a week and she is still enthusiastic about going to the nursery every morning. Thanks to all the staff for being so friendly and caring, particularly during challenging times like the pandemic
