My daughter attended this nursery between the age of 6 months and 4 years. She was immediately really at home and loved going in each morning. The varied activities really suited her and the staff/her key worker got to know her really well - adopting their approach as we went through various phases (potty training, 'that' temper tantrum phase!). The manager and her team are clearly well experienced in dealing with both the children's experience and indeed with parents - I always felt well informed and believe I had honest and open feedback from them in respect of my daughter - even being invited to join the parent/staff group to share feedback and development ideas. My daughter also adored the garden area, and it was lovely to see them out there enjoying themselves in a stimulating and safe environment. Sports Days and Graduations were also handled beautifully. Well done to all.
All of the rooms/facilities were fantastic for him as he progressed. We were especially impressed with the day to day supervision and closeness of his key-workers, with whom he had a fantastic rapport. We were really pleased with the preparation for school too - a vital time in their little lives and we felt like he was properly looked after and cared for as if he was one of the staff's own children.
I've always felt incredibly safe leaving him in the care of the staff here - and would highly recommend it.
Brilliant staff and nursing overall.
My son has only been at the nursery for a few weeks and the staff have settled him in really well. I am amazed at how much fun he is having. The staff have been fantastic. I would highly recommend this nursery.
My son was very happy at this nursery for 4 years. I felt happy to leave him with such lovely people. The whole place was friendly and professional. All of his needs were met to a great standard and I wouldn't hesitate to send him for holiday club. If you're looking for a place your child will be happy, well educated and taken excellent care of then this is where you should choose. We couldn't have asked for more from the nursery.
My daughter loves her days at nursery! She has developed so much since she started. The staff are always friendly and helpful and they are so easy to talk to. We are so happy with the care my daughter is receiving that we would like to keep her at the same nursery when she is old enough to move to the 'big girls room!'.
I am very happy with Busy Bees. My little boy loves all the activities they provide and I like how all religions are taken into consideration when special days in the calendar come up.
I have had 2 children at Busy Bees in Edgbaston, the first from 8 months - starting school and second from 9 months is still here. My child's school was really impressed with the preschool preparation for school. Both the boys love going to Busy Bees in Edgbaston and the staff are always supportive and friendly.
Fantastic nursery engaging staff with great facilities and quality of care.
I have been taking my one-year-old boy to settle in sessions at Busy Bees in Edgbaston throughout January and February as I am due back to work next week. I have never left my son and I was worried how we were both going to cope with this change. All the staff at the nursery including the manager and reception have been so lovely, helpful and supportive. I have voiced my concern and they have helped me through them. They advised when to leave him for a couple of hours to see how he copes without me there. When I returned to pick him up the staff had taken photo's showing what he had been up to and to reassure me he was happy. I got to keep the photos. This means so much to me. When he was upset on one settling in session they tried different activities until he was content. The staff have shown such understanding towards me as a parent, dedicated time getting to know my son's personality making it easier returning to work. Thank you so much Busy Bees a wonderful nursery.
Excellent very pleased with the child care and all round customer service.
I am really happy with all kind of activities my son has had during the time he spends at the nursery. Staff are very friendly and easy to communicate. I appreciate all the daily feedback. My son has developed a lot since he started coming to Busy Bees In Edgbaston.
Ever since the first day we came to ask about the nursery, we were looked after very well, our kids were taken into the classes and they settled very well. I was especially happy with how they dealt with my special needs child. We requested full days after having half days for one month and we were given our request kindly. The girls love it and the staff do a great job looking after all the kids and giving them a fun learning environment.
Staff have been very helpful and we receive very good feedback every day about my daughter.
Nursery is always helpful and supportive with my child. Thanks to one lady for helping my child turn into the confident well-behaved girl she is now.
This is an excellent nursery, my son is always well looked after and he has a good relationship with all the staff and his peers.
I am very happy with the nursery staff, my daughters love the nursery and have settled in very well. They enjoy the time that they spend here and I always recommend the nursery to all my family and friends.
Outstanding nursery with wonderfully caring and accommodating staff. Busy Bees are truly committed to providing the best childcare in Birmingham, a credit to the industry.
I have always been happy with the nursery as both my children have attended although one is now at school. The staff are always welcoming and helpful and always keep us up to date with my child's progress.
I am very happy, any issues have always been resolved quickly. Communication between myself and staff is always very good and feedback at pick up time is always very detailed. My son is very happy here, his social and educational development has improved since he has been here. The level of care is fantastic, even though there are lots of children here I feel confident that he is treated with a high level of care as an individual.
My son enjoys coming to the nursery, he has become more confident and he enjoys the various activities they do on a daily basis. The staff keep me updated with his progress on a continuous basis and I have a daily review when I pick him up. I would recommend this nursery to other parents.

Hello my name is Diane and I am the Manager here at St James Road in Edgbaston. I have been working in childcare for over 27 years, 24 of which have been with Busy Bees. I have worked as a deputy manager and a senior room leader as well as being a manager for over 26 years. I also have a variety of experience in other areas of childcare including being a youth club leader and a brownie leader.
I am a mother of three and I have my level 4 qualification in Early Years as well as having completed many other courses such as, Safeguarding, First Aid at Work and Food Hygiene. I have also completed my Level 5 qualification in Management.
I find my job extremely fulfilling and I love nothing more then sitting in the base rooms and watching the children enjoying their fun filled days. The staff at Edgbaston are committed to providing quality childcare and they take great pride in watching the children grow and develop as they move through the rooms and eventually head off to school.
