Busy Bees Stoke Gifford Reviews (16)
Over all time Busy Bees Stoke Gifford has 16 reviews.
A fantastic nursery with dynamic and caring staff, wonderfully interactive and fun activities and a lovely environment for the children to play. My daughter has been so happy here and I can only hope her school experience is to the same high standard.

My son has been full-time at Busy Bees since last year. Initially, there were some shortage of staff issues but overall our experience is good. They provide very good care and make my child feel very comfortable. They provide extra support with learning too.

My son has been going to Busy Bees, Stoke Gifford, since he was 11 months old. He loves going and now tells me (now aged 2) how the staff are his friends. They are all very caring and he has lots of fun. He enjoys the food. We get lots of information on the app with photos and reviews of his development.
I have two children at Busy Bees in Stoke Gifford. Both started aged five months and my daughter is currently in the preschool class, having gone right the way through. We have been more than satisfied with the quality of care given, as well as the extent to which our little ones have been encouraged and supported to learn and grow. Any queries, problems or questions have been immediately dealt with by the manager. The staff really care about the children they look after and my children go happily into nursery every morning. The nursery has followed all the guidelines through the Covid-19 pandemic and we have felt confident that our children were safe. I'd like to thank everyone at Busy Bees in Stoke Gifford for their hard work.
Your positive feedback will be passed on to staff at nursery, we are sure the team will really appreciate your excellent feedback
Our son has been going to Busy Bees in Stoke Gifford since he was 10 months old, he’s now 2 and a half and still loves it. The staff are lovely and he has learnt so much. Would thoroughly recommend this nursery.
Busy Bees in Stoke Gifford is an excellent Nursery. I have been so pleased with all aspects of the nursery from the friendly, enthusiastic and extremely helpful staff to the learning and development opportunities provided. They are always doing different activities and striving to really enhance the children's experience. I have seen my daughter blossom into a confident little girl, ready to go to reception. I highly recommend Busy Bees in Stoke Gifford for their high standards and brilliant level of care.
A very positive and engaging experience for my niece. Lots of hands-on activities offered. Her development over the last 12 months has been remarkable.
The staff have been amazing with him and he has grown some lovely relationships with them.
Highly recommend this nursery and preschool.
Both my children thoroughly enjoy attending Busy Bees and benefit greatly. I know my children will be looked after, kept safe and stimulated throughout the day. There is a wide range of resources and activities on offer and my children's personal and social skills have improved since attending the nursery. All staff and management are friendly, caring and very professional; they will always help and give advice and support if needed. I would definitely recommend Busy Bees at Stoke Gifford to anyone looking for nursery or pre-school care.
Our daughter has attended Busy Bees in Stoke Gifford since she was nine months old and she has just started in the pre-school room. At every stage, she has been well cared for and understood. The nursery has a real family feel, she knows all the staff, even those in other rooms, which helps with room transitions and any unexpected staff changes e.g. If people have to change rooms to cover others.
As a parent, I find staff friendly, helpful and reassuring. Events are well planned and fun so all the family can feel part of something. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery.
Choosing a nursery is hard, but we could not be happier with Busy Bees Stoke Gifford. Our little girl had only been in my care before attending Busy Bees and I was concerned about how she would settle in but the staff were amazing to both her and myself. We have moved rooms twice as she had aged and cannot fault the communication from all her key workers, explaining what will happen when and how her progress will be monitored etc.
I also like the fact there is minimal staff turnover which means the employees are happy and also enjoy their time at here. The food menus make me want to stay for lunch and tea! I love the outdoor space and how much they utilise this as does my outdoorsy girl.
Everyone is friendly and professional and go above and beyond. Events like summer and Christmas fairs, photo days, parties, book day and charity days happen regularly with a real sense of passion from all the staff.
Lastly, a recent outstanding Ofsted achieved. I would highly recommend you take a look.
Really pleased with the nursery. Especially the 2-5 room (preschool). My son enjoys going in. I was sceptical of moving him as he started at another nursery but following a house move the move was required and the nursery made him feel very welcome and ensured he was happy. When something has not been to my satisfaction I have brought it to their attention and it's been handled. Very pleased!
Both of my daughters have attended this nursery and thoroughly enjoyed everything it has to offer. I was delighted that the nursery was recently awarded an 'outstanding' Ofsted rating! My 2-year-old is delighted with the recent arrival of two nursery pets, which she loves to help look after. I would definitely recommend this nursery as m girls have both been so happy here.
My daughter really enjoys her time in the pre school room. There are lots of activities to keep her entertained. She gets to use computers, paint and use their purpose built outside area with bikes and trikes, slides and gardening area. She has made some friends and really enjoys her time here. It is also really helping to pave the way for her starting school.
My daughter has been very happy coming to the pre-school of Busy Bees. All of the staff are very welcoming and including of my daughter. They answered all my questions of concerns I have about my child's settling in and development. I feel that my daughter is in a safe environment and they have exciting and imaginative activities set up and I have a full run down of her day and what she did and ate. I would recommend this nursery and feel happy that they are preparing her for school.
Busy Bees Stoke Gifford has been a massive part of our families lives, they have provided first class care to both of my children, they have helped shape them into the children they are today - confident young boys with a thirst to learn! I cannot speak highly enough of them. The Nursery has a lovely family feel and all staff have made us feel welcome from the start. My children made use of the Stay and play Sessions every Friday before they joined which helped them settle with ease. All of these sessions were also free of charge as well as being provided with complimentary previsits before joining, allowing them to build bonds with their key person all before their very first day.
