Busy Little Bees day nursery is located in Shirley, Solihull. It is easily accessible by car or on foot and is moments from the Haslucks Green Road bus stops.
Each child has a dedicated key person to monitor their progress, development and care.
The children are grouped by age. Bumble Bees, for babies aged up to 24 months, provides a sensory environment with activities such as stories, singing and messy play. Babies also have outdoor play and a cosy sleeping area.
The Honey Bees room, for children aged 24 to 36 months, is where children begin to expand their imagination with messy play, creating things with play dough, sand and water. At the nursery, children get involved in role-play, learn about nature and enjoy free-flow play into the multi-sensory garden.
Busy Bees is for children aged 30 to 36 months. They learn about nature and cooking while enjoying messy play and plenty of outdoor activities in the Busy Bees garden. Adjacent to this is the Honey Pot room, the pre-school area for children aged from 40 months to five years. In preparation for school life, the team follow the EYFS framework to build each child’s independence and imagination, as well as their communication and social, physical and emotional development.

My little one started at the nursery when he was 11 months old. As a first-time mother and it being a massive change for both of us, choosing a nursery we both felt happy with is a huge responsibility. He settled really well into nursery and the routine there has helped with the structure at home. The nursery gives him lots of opportunities to develop his learning and allows his free choice through fun activities. They follow the NC and the updates on the app are great for understanding what his day has been like. The team at the nursery are very friendly, communicates messages effectively and approachable. Due to my work schedule, he also attends the morning breakfast session and has to be picked up late so from the start it was important we picked the correct facility for us and Busy Little Bees Nursery - Shirley definitely was. Highly recommend it to any parents.

Staff are so lovely and friendly. They always make drop-off as smooth as it can be. I would like a few more photo updates as sometimes my child is sad on drop off and it's reassuring to see photos of them happily playing.

Thank you so much for your lovely review - we are so glad that he has settled in so well. We welcome your feedback as well, and we do aim to have at least one photograph on the diaries per session for every child, but adding photos can be quite time-consuming, and we feel that our practitioners' time is much better spent caring for, interacting with and supporting the children throughout their nursery sessions with us. I will pass your kind words on to the rest of the staff team.
This is a great nursery, our little boy absolutely loves going and the staff are always super pleased to see him! He's come on leaps and bounds since starting and we're always very happy and confident in the quality of care that the team provides.

Busy Little Bees Shirley is a very caring and amazing setting. Their manager and all the staff go above and beyond to ensure children have a great time. My little one is always very excited to go to nursery and staff are always on hand to make sure he has the most fun and productive day. I love how there is always a theme in the rooms to reflect seasons and their stage of learning. They were kind enough to order some sensory toys to help engage my little one further and help with his learning. They always take feedback from parents and always update parents on how their children are getting on. Everyone is always happy to help and so kind. Very lucky to have found this setting and very happy with everything so far indeed!
Thank you so much for your lovely review, we are so glad that he has settled in so well and thriving with us! I will ensure that I pass your kind words onto the staff team.
Wonderful nursery and staff. The best thing we ever did for our daughter was send her to Busy Little Bees, wish we had sent her sooner. Our daughter loves the nursery and has built great relationships with the staff. They're kind, caring and nurturing.

I have two children who attend in babies and preschool and both rooms are filled with the kindest, friendliest staff, who I feel so comfortable leaving my children with. The things that my eldest is learning is crazy and I'm so impressed with the wide variety of topics they cover.

Fantastic nursery and great staff. My little girl started when she was 17 months old. It took her a couple of months to settle, which I was expecting, given that up until then she was always with me. The staff in the baby room were so patient and supportive during those difficult months, but it wasn't long before my little one was happily walking in independently. It's a lovely environment for children to learn in and the staff (throughout the nursery) are friendly and always happy to help. Really pleased I chose this nursery for my little girl and am hugely grateful to all the staff for making it such a happy place for her to spend her time.
Thank you so much for such a lovely review - I will ensure that I pass it on to the staff team! We are so glad that she has settled in so well and we hope she enjoys her nursery journey with us.
Amazing nursery, my daughter loves it so much all the staff are welcoming friendly and made her ease straight in! Couldn’t recommend this nursery anymore! My child always comes home with something new she’s learned. Thank you all so much.

Busy Little Bees is a lovely nursery. Our 3-year-old daughter started in September 2021 and is very happy and settled there. Since attending, her confidence has increased immensely and she is thriving in all areas of her development. She talks about the staff, the friends she has made and the activities she has undertaken. She has recently started going to forest school, which she loves and whilst this is educational, it allows her to play, explore and discover nature in the outdoor environment. She very much looks forward to the hot chocolate the staff bring for them! The staff are friendly, supportive and encouraging and they communicate well with parents. Our 2-year-old is due to start next week and whilst she's never been away from us, I am confident that she will settle with the friendly staff. I would highly recommend the nursery. Thank you for all the hard work you do for our children!
Thank you so much for your very kind words, it has been lovely to see her grow in confidence. I will ensure that your feedback is passed on to the rest of the team.
It would be nice if there were more activities on all days.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. Now that covid restrictions have lifted, we are so happy that we have re-started many of our regular extra curricular activities throughout the week such as Zumbini sessions, gardening activities and Forest School for our older children and the children are thoroughly enjoying them. We will ensure that your feedback is shared with the team.
