The handover at the end of the day is detailed and never rushed which we appreciate. His Room provides an incredible variety of activities that keeps him entertained and engaged.
Our son is thriving here and he really does have so much fund with everything he does here.
She sings all her teachers names before sleeping. I can see she truly loves it here.
I applied to Busy Bees nursery on the recommendation of a work colleague and I had only heard positive things. The nursery has been fantastic, consistently keeping me informed about my child & how his day has gone. I would highly recommend this nursery. The staff are wonderful, very friendly, approachable and always willing to listen.
Great nursery with caring and supportive staff. Mobeen and the team do an excellent job, and I feel confident leaving my child, Vishwas, in their care. A really positive environment for children to learn and grow. Mobeen stands out for her kindness, professionalism and genuine committment to childrens wellbeing. She always takesthe time to communicate with parents and ensure every child feels safe, valued and supported. All staff are fantastic and a good start to learning and development.
The management team is equally attentive and ready to listen. I never felt rushed or dismissed, whenever I had a question or query, someone was always there to help.
Shout out to everyone that has been involved in my daughter's care, and thank you for everything.
The management is amazing as well they are always doing their best to help.
Busy Bees is an amazing nursery, we feel very lucky that picked it. From the very first day the staff have gone above and beyond to create a nurturing, safe environment. I feel they took time to understand my child needs and personality, and it shows in how happy and confident our little one has become! Communication with parents is excellent, always kept informed about daily activities, milestones and any concerns. The learning activities are creative, engaging, and thoughtfully planned, helping children to develop socially, emotionally and academically. It is outstanding nursery!
I am always so happy with the level of care from the staff. The nursery is always clean and warm.
My child clearly enjoys his time here and his key workers are always so happy to see him.
As a first time parent, it's comforting to know all the staff care so much about their jobs and the children under their care.
Our Daughter has been attending nursery at busy bees St James since October 2024. So far we have received a fantastic service. When she first started she was very shy and cried each time she was dropped off. She was also a very fussy eater (just turned a year old when started). The staff have made a fantastic effort to include her in activities and have built wonderful relationships with her. Not only is she now happy to attend but she runs to staff in the morning excited to start. She's now eating regular meals with the other children which I know Mobeen has made a very special effort with. The chef has made meals especially for her to ensure that she eats. The garden space is amazing and staff ensure that the children go outside for some fresh air everyday. We are so happy with the service at busy bees St James and we would definitely recommend to others!
Since my daughter has started back in March, I have seen her go from leaps to bounds, learning a lot and engaging with other children.
My son has improved his speech, learning, and knowledge.
He has created good relationships with the staff and his peers and continues to grow and develop positive skills and confidence.
My daughter joined this nursery in 2024. I am so happy with the way my daughter has been taken care of. She is always happy, and I see her thriving in everything she does, and that is down to the nursery.
Fantastic nursery for our son, the love and care from staff has been excellent. Our son has really excelled during his time at her nursery.
My daughter has settled in beautifully with the support from her lovely key worker and other staff. It's wonderful to see her flourish. The staff genuinely care about her, which is so apparent in their care duties and their excitement for her milestones. I'll never forget celebrating her first steps with the staff! They've also been very kind and considerate to me in supporting me with this transition.
I am very happy with the service provided by busy bees and also my daughter is also happy with the nursery.
I would not change his everyday place where he is feeling safe, learning and growing from day to day. Well done to everyone at nursery you are doing amazing job.
My baby is settling well in the nursery with the great care and support received from her key person and other staff. I can see she has started enjoying her stay and learning activities here in Busy Bees. Thank you very much for taking good care of my little 'bee' and keeping her busy with the development activities that she enjoys a lot.
Communication is excellent, as are the facilities and activities.
The staff taking amazing care of my child. He is learning so much and gaining confidence and it is all thanks to the amazing staff. Handovers are always thorough and I am happy with the activities they have set for the child. They are also accommodating of any medical conditions and have been for my child. Perfect nursery!
I can highly recommend Busy Bees. It is hard to find and make the decision for a nursery, but this place made it an easier one. It's a second home for my daughter, she really likes to go and the staff is amazing.
