so happy I chose this nursery for my son - he started when he was 9 months old and now he's 2.5 years old and absolutely loves it. The staff are so kind and caring and I love the fact that if my son wants a cuddle he has one! His key workers know all his little ways, his likes and dislikes and I never worry about him whilst he is there.
My daughter has been here for a few years and they have helped her a lot and helped her develop and get her ready for school. My son has recently just started in the baby room and they have made me feel very welcome and my son has settled in quickly and is always smiley when I pick him up.

My son has been attending Busy Bees, Walsgrave for 18 months and he absolutely loves it. The staff are always warm and welcoming and genuinely seem to care about the kids in their care. He eats very well (better than at home!) and the kitchen is always full of fresh produce when you walk past in...
The nursery is very communicative and accessible and has always been very sensible around unforeseen events (covid waves, heat waves). The manager is approachable, knowledgeable and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery and will be sending my second child there when the time comes.
My daughter has attended the nursery from 10 months old and I have always been very impressed with the standard of care. I was very nervous when I first went back to work and leaving my daughter at nursery, but the staff made me feel reassured and kept me informed at every stage, even saying I...
All food is cooked fresh onsite and the variety of the menu is really good and encourages my daughter to eat stuff she would never try at home. She's developed so much since going and they are always talking to me about what she's been doing, enjoying and how they are helping her develop even more.
I'm so glad I chose this nursery for my daughter and I couldn't imagine sending her anywhere else. I don't worry when I leave her there as she loves it!
This is a good nursery in general. The nursery attracts a diversity of staff and kids, which is good for little ones to develop a sense of understanding and tolerance. Besides on-site facilities, the nursery is also able to provide a wide range of online resources for early development and parent...
I would recommend this nursery to my friends and families.

Thank you for the positive feedback. We are really happy that you find our UP app useful and beneficial to your child's development and hope that this was able to make lockdown a little more fun. Our team feel it is important to teach the children about the diversity within our community and often plan activities around this. We look forward to watching your little one continue to develop within our nursery.

My daughter loves attending Busy Bees she has been going for over 18 months. Her first key worker helped her to settle in and made sure she got involved in a number of varied activities. My daughter has now moved through a number of different rooms and has always loved attending nursery. Her current keyworker is excellent and has taken the time to get to know my daughter. Every time my daughter returns from nursery she always talks about her. All the staff in the office are always helpful and approachable. The food that is provided is always varied I think my daughter eats better than I do.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, we will ensure your daughter's key person reads it. It's wonderful to hear that she talks about nursery at home and that you are happy with the service provided. We look forward to watching her grow in the future.
Childcare service has dropped. The staff is not enthusiastic enough with the kids. Do not make the fees been charged clear and charge more than stated. They are very inconsiderate of parents who have other children that need to get to school.

The team were really sad to see your little one leave the nursery & would have loved to see her stay until school, especially as her older sister attended for so long. We feel that the staff team have built in strength with regards to knowledge & training and are disappointed that you feel differently. The Senior team regularly carry out reflective observations to ensure that staff are enthusiastic and encourage the children to learn and develop to the best of their ability. Our fees are outlined to parents upon registration, and monthly invoices clearly detail childcare costs. The Terms & Conditions are also attached to the application form which we encourage parents to keep. We are sorry that you feel this was not clear. As part of our Covid-19 procedures we are asking parents to drop off by 9am, however if a parent is unable to drop off by then this is not a problem and we will take their temperature at reception. The reminder text was a generic text that goes to all parents.

You can see whats happened via the parent's app and they give you a report of the day on collection. I am very happy with the services provided and the location is perfect for work.
My daughter has attended Busy Bees for over a year. It’s a lovely nursery, full of warm and welcoming staff. The nursery updates an app through the day, so you can see how your child has been, and also updates with assessments and progress of your child. I would highly recommend Busy Bees to anyone!

Good nursery with good quality. Excellent education, and care. Opening at 7:15 till 6:00 pm, it's a very convenient opening time. Excellent menu and good chefs in the kitchen. Safe clean garden for games and many toys.

My son has been at Busy Bees since he was a 10-month-old toddler and I have seen him grow up into a very caring and confident child whose now going to be 3 this month. The staff at this nursery are absolutely fantastic. If I ever had any concern about my son they would take it on board straight away and help me in any way they possibly can. I owe all of the development and skills that my son has learnt in the last 2 years to all of these amazing people at nursery. They give you daily updates on how your child has been alongside pictures and observstions so that you as a parent can be kept up to date alongside having parents meeting with their key worker to see how they have been. I am so so glad that I picked them for my son.
I couldn't ask for anything more as this nursery is absolutely amazing. I am reassured that my son is looked and cared after. Since starting, there has been development in his confidence. The food is varied and good. The setting is age-appropriate with indoor and outdoor areas and activities. I...
I couldn't ask for anything more as this nursery is absolutely amazing. I am reassured that my son is looked and cared after. Since starting, there has been development in his confidence. The food is varied and good. The setting is age-appropriate with indoor and outdoor areas and activities. I absolutely love their online app which keeps me updated about his daily activities, meals, sleep, etc. He also has periodic development assessment and overall behaviour with recommendations which is communicated via the app. It is reassuring to know that he is in good hands while I am at work. I absolutely would recommend to anyone looking for a nursery for their child.
Lovely nursery. My son is very happy there and has made a lot of friends. He cannot wait to go there in the mornings.

He is entertained, educated and happy - our other child has been enrolled!
Couldn't recommend this nursery enough, my son absolutely loves it at nursery, he's made so many friends and the staff there are great at what they do.

Absolutely outstanding nursery. Rooms are made with age in mind and great outside spaces. Staff treat children so lovely and with real care and compassion. Real communication and very high standards.

I’m now in my eighth year of using Busy Bees at Walsgrave and I cannot praise the nursery and staff enough! All my children (two who have since graduated and left and one currently attending) are always happy and contented there. As an employee of UHCW, I can not put a price on the convenience of...
I always feel reassured that I am no more than five minutes away.
Every single member of staff is a valuable asset to Busy Bees. Every morning you are greeted by a smile and extreme professionalism and friendliness.
The quality of childcare, surroundings, meals, learning and parent/staff communication is exceptional and I would most definitely recommend Busy Bees to any parent looking for a nursery childcare provider.
All personnel are very friendly,...
All personnel are very friendly, including the ladies taking care of the kids as well as the admin and management teams.
My baby (now toddler) spreads smiles to all ladies there and is always torn at the end of the day as to whether she wants to come back home or stay there for longer. She is very comfortable in this nursery and happy to be looked after by any of the ladies (obviously, with some preferences).
My partner and I are extremely happy.
The staff, food, various activities etc. are the reason why we have chosen this nursery. We are extremely happy for our daughters.
