Busy Bees Blythe Valley has the most amazing staff who have cared for our son for the last 4 years.The staff are engaging,professional and so friendly.We would highly recommend this nursery to anybody considering a nursery place as they will give your child the best start in life.A special mention to three staff members, in particular, who have all been instrumental in the care of our son.Thank you all once again for the loving care you have given our son.
The nursery is set up perfectly, with each class having plentiful space and activities both inside and out, it has also been great in terms of opening/closing times and logistically easy to park up and drop off safely.
Would highly recommend to others.
Most importantly our son is incredibly happy at nursery and loves his time there. He has also progressed incredibly well in his development during his time so far at busy bees.
My first child left 7 years ago after being there full time for 3 years. My second started there 6 months ago. It was brilliant then and is brilliant now. I would highly recommend to anyone. We don't live locally but choose to travel because we didn't find a nursery that compared.
Our daughter started BusyBees nearly 12 months ago. The staff have been incredibly friendly and supportive of us as a family. Our daughter struggled at points to return after being absent but staff were calm and found alternative ways to reintroduce her to the centre. Her development has been a pleasure to see especially through the app which is updated regularly.
We have now had 2 children enrolled at Busy Bees Blythe Gate and honestly wouldn't consider sending them anywhere else. The team are great, showing great care of the children they are responsible for. Through to the range in food menus offered across the week and the range of activities they complete. They also update the app regularly so we know how our child is getting on whether that be nappy changes, food eaten, length of sleep through to pictures of what they are upto.
My daughter attends Busy Bees at Blythe Valley full time and absolutely loves it! Her confidence has grown so much. Seeing her so excited to go into nursery on a morning fills me with such joy! Thank you so much to the team!
My son has been attending the nursery for over a year now and he thoroughly enjoys his time here and often doesn't want to leave when we pick him up! The staff and management are very friendly, helpful and supportive. I feel the key workers also give a good insight into how the day has been. I also see how my child is fond of certain members of staff and has created strong bonds and relationships. I always highly recommend the nursery setting to friends and family as my experience has been first class.
I have 2 children at Busy Bees in Blythe Valley who have both been since they were 1 years old. I honestly couldn't fault the nursery in anyway, both my children love it so much, the staff are all so amazing, friendly and treat both my children like they're own. They have both come on so much with their learning/speech and how they interact with other children. I'd recommend this nursery to anybody :-)
The staff here are great, my baby is always happy to go to nursery every morning, especially when he is greeted by the lovely staff in the morning. Nothing is too much trouble and we get regular app updates and an update on how he has been at the end of the day. The centre is run so well, there are always plenty of staff and they all seem very happy with their workplace and the children they work with. They have a great menu selection and do special events with the children and parents for events like Father's Day. We are so happy we chose Busy Bees for our little guy.
I have been so impressed with Busy Bees, having had a wonderful experience with my son and now seeing my daughter thrive there as well. The staff are warm, attentive and genuinely invested in the children's happiness and development. My daughter thoroughly enjoys her time at nursery, and it's clear from how excited she is to go each day and her demeanour at the end of the day. The variety of activities and experiences offered is fantastic - no two days are ever the same and it's great to see her exploring new skills and interests. The bond she has with her carers is lovely to see; they know her so well and have created such a nurturing environment where she feels safe, confident, and happy. I couldn't recommend Busy Bees highly enough - they've been a wonderful part of both my children's early years and I'm so grateful for the care and attention they've received.
My whole experience with Busy Bees Solihull has been awesome! However, their support during my daughter's birthday in November through the Christmas period is definitely worth sharing an absolutely glowing review on. They made these times really beautiful for the kids and I know my daughter felt loved and was so joyous.
All three of my children have attended Busy Bees over the past six years and honestly, this nursery is like home away from home. The facilities are top tier and the staff have gone above and beyond for my children - my 7-year-old still has a close relationship with the staff to this day! I have trusted these amazing women with my babies over the years and I am forever grateful - you will not regret choosing Busy Bees!
The communication has been brilliant also via the app and I look forward to photos of my daughter playing or doing fun paintings - this really helped ease my anxiety when she first started.
I can't rate Busy Bees highly enough - they're a fantastic bunch of people so thank you so much for making sure my daughter has the best time when she's with you!
My daughter has been attending Busy Bees Solihull, Blythe Valley branch since she was 12 months old. We are very happy with the care she receives, her safety and the learning opportunities. Staff are kind, caring and professional. I highly recommend this nursery!
My son has been attending since he was 15 months and is now 3.5. He joined as an extremely nervous covid baby, and because of Busy Bees, he is now a confident, happy boy! The change in him is amazing. The staff love him as their own, it’s a great place and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

The nursery is excellent. Very engaging for our child. He runs in every morning. The staff are lovely and really tailor their care to each staff. My son especially loves the garden and watching the ducks from the fence.

My baby started nursery at Busy Bees on September 2022 when he was 11 months and he quickly settled in. The staff at the nursery are very kind, helpful and understanding. We love the big garden space and the free flow between the room and the garden. I feel the space is very thoughtfully designed for the kids' needs according to their age. My son is always happy to attend and we feel very confident he is having the best time when at nursery. They give us constant updates about his progress which is very comforting. Overall, we are very happy to have chosen this nursery for our son.

I was anxious about my son attending nursery and did a lot of research and tours of facilities in the local area. I could not have made a better choice! My son loves going to Busy Bees. They do so many great activities and it has helped his development so much. The staff build individual relationships with the children and work with their interests to make nursery exciting and fun. They have managed my child's allergies excellently and have been very supportive when additional records have been required for use with the dietician. I recommend Busy Bees to anyone and everyone!
