Busy Bees St Andrew's Ridge

I have really seen a change in her confidence and she has a great relationship with her key worker. Busy bees always keep me up to date on her progress and make me aware of things that have happened during her day. She gets a good variety of food there and never seems to turn away a meal.

My daughter has been at this nursery for a year now, since 9 months old. She is learning so much, and is always well cared for. She is also extremely happy here and enjoys being there for her 2.5 days each week. She goes in with a smile and comes out the same way. The staff are excellent, very communicative and carry out lots of fun and educational activities. I would highly recommend.

My 2 1/2-year-old son has attended since he was 10 months old and prior to that my daughter attended for several years before starting school.

The staff are absolutely amazing from the staff in the rooms, to office staff and management, everyone always goes out of their way to assist with any queries and also in a timely manner.

Most of the staff are the same staff that have been there since my daughter attended which to me is great to see the staff turnover is so low.

The facilities are great and in line with children’s needs, the children are also split it to specific age groups which is crucial in the early years.

My son absolutely loves going!

This is an amazing nursery. My little girl can't wait to spend the day here, and she is so well looked after that I don't have to worry. She has a brilliant time, and learns so much at the age of 2. During potty training, staff have been extra helpful offering me advice, and her, encouragement. Picking her up is my favourite time of the day, hearing all the lovely things she's got up to. Couldn't praise this nursery and the staff enough!

Since my son has been with Busy Bees his confidence has grown massively and he has learnt lots to prepare him for when he begins school.

We are so happy to find you. Thanks for all your support.

Plenty of activities that also prepares the older ones for school with their own school bag! Both my sons have gone here and both loved it.

Friendly and fun nursery that I feel encourages my child to play/learn/grow in a safe environment with as much care as home.

I can tell she's happy at nursery and well looked after. Sometimes she doesn't want to come home and wants me to stay and play!

Whenever I see other children upset staff are quick to comfort them and all children I see when I'm at the nursery seem happy and confident in going to staff or playing independently. Highly recommend!

The children at the nursery are always happy and the staff always act in the best interest of them.

Both my eldest and youngest daughter attend Busy Bees St Andrews. My eldest, now in primary school still talks about her time at the nursery. The youngest has a fabulous time when there! Great facilities, great staff and management, I wouldn't trust any other nursery with my children! Would definitely recommend.

I would highly recommend, I was very nervous as a first-time mum and having to return to work the nursery staff really helped me with leaving my son and with him settling in. Since going at 7 months to now at 18 months he's developed so much and is getting on with other children so has made lots of friends.

All staff are friendly and helpful, the premises are always clean and my son can never wait to go and absolutely loves it. Thank you, Busy Bees.

My son was going to two other nurseries along with this one. He was very happy to go to the other two places but not happy at all to go here. He is 4 years old and he used to complain that the food in the nursery was not good. We tried for 4 months to settle him there but to no use. Finally, we had to give up and stop sending him to this nursery, even though we had paid a full months fee in advance. On one or two occasions he came out from the nursery happily, however, other times he said: "I don't want to go".

The food provided is outstanding and my daughter eats amazingly well.

My little one attends two full days a week and absolutely loves it The staff are wonderful and will do anything they can for you. The food menu is of restaurant standard and always smells amazing. There is lots of outdoor space for play with lots of different things to do. We love the fact there is CCTV every where at this nursery and you can go along and watch your child on the cameras at any time... the ladies in the office made us feel totally at ease about our anxieties with leaving our little one for the first time. I would highly recommend this nursery for any little one! Thumbs up and 5 ***** from us

We've had 2 children go from babies to preschool and both have been very happy there. They get stuck straight in when they're dropped off, and are still happy (if slightly messier!) at pick-up. They talk happily about the staff who always have a smile and put a lot of effort into being engaging with the children.

The menu includes a wide range of healthy food, and my children are prepared to eat/try things at nursery that they wouldn't eat for me!

We love the folders tracking their progress and always feel assured that a range of activities are available offering different learning opportunities. The prep for school programme is a greater idea, preparing them for a small amount of responsibility but not intimidating!

There are lots of extras to get involved in e.g. Christmas/Halloween parties, photos, graduation.

I always felt my child would be well cared for and that I would be kept informed, I couldn't have left them anywhere I had doubts about, so Busy Bees has been perfect.

Both my children attended this nursery from 9months old until they went to school. They both are confident, well-mannered children who have thrived in primary school and I put this down to the care and education they received in their early years. The facilities are lovely as well as the staff that looked after them. I know child care costs a lot of money but it was well worth it.

My daughter has been attending Busy Bees since she was 9 months old and the care that she receives is brilliant. From the moment I sent an enquiry email in, 2 months before she started, I have been impressed with them. Going back to work and leaving your baby with strangers (which ultimately is what you're doing!) is the hardest thing but all the staff made the process as easy and stress-free for both of us. Nothing seems too much trouble for them even when for the first 3 months I would ring twice a day to check how she was! Every room change has been handled well, so there is no upset for my little one. All the staff always seem to be happy and want to be there, enjoy their jobs and make the day fun for the kids.
