The nursery have great routines/structure which is of great benefit at home too.
The staff are the heart of the Nursery and all do a fabulous job, two staff members especially.
My son is currently in the preschool room but has attended this nursery since he was 11 months old and in the baby room. He loves his nursery days and has such a good bond and relationship with his key worker. He will always talk about the room manager and how she has taught him this or he can't wait to tell her about something he has done outside of nursery. It's clear the workers are passionate about the children and I can't praise the updates we get at the end of the day or via the app. It really does make you feel like you really know what your child is doing and developing!
My daughter loves all the activities at nursery and the friends she has made too, this is all down to the amazing staff that care for and nurture her throughout the day. She comes back home with lots of stories and things to tell us about nursery which is great! Her development has also increased loads since being there.
All staff are really helpful and have a genuine interest in my child's development and engagement at nursery. They take time to update us every day on progress and my child loves their time at Busy Bees
Our Daughter has been attending Busy Bees for over n year. We have noticed a huge development, she enjoys attending nursery and interacting with other children and staff. The staff are very friendly and approachable. If there are any concerns, they will contact both parents. The premises are very clean, the team puts great effort into children's health and safety and development. Thank you to all of the staff working there.
Everyone at the nursery is very attentive, caring and communicating well.
Outstanding nursery! My son is in preschool and I have loved him being in there since day one. In the morning we are greeted with smiles and my son is always happy to say goodbye and go in. The ladies in pre-school are amazing, they are great at keeping us updated on the app with activities, meals and information that needs to come home. I especially want to point out a member of staff who is my son's keyworker, my son comes home every day and loves telling me all the things she and the other staff have set up and taught them that day. Since joining, my son is now able to recognise his name, a few letters and say them phonetically, he is starting to write a few letters too. He wouldn't have been able to do this without the amazing support from the team. They offer trips to the library, computer museum, the theatre and walks in the area along with many more. I can't think of a better nursery to send my child to!
Daily online and at pick-up feedback on our child's activities. I always notice the children in the different sections at the nursery appear boisterous and happy. So, the staff must be doing a wonderful job.
My daughter has been attending Busy Bees for nearly 2 years now and the nursery has massively helped her in all areas of development. She absolutely loves going to nursery and all the staff are very friendly and professional. We have noticed a huge leap in her progression especially moving into the preschool room and she likes to share all the new things that she does during the day. My child's key worker is brilliant and very attentive. I've noticed a few changes that the preschool room does to get the children ready for primary school which is great. Thank you Busy Bee for all the hard work, support, care and patience that you give, I would highly recommend this nursery!
All the staff are great and work tirelessly and you can see the care they have for the children. They all put great effort into children's health, safety and development. Thanks Busy Bees staff, especially in the baby room.
We as parents are really happy with our child’s development at Busy Bees Thurmaston. The manager of the nursery is always available to chat with and always asks how we are doing and also always wants feedback. The staff are always approachable and kind. Our child loves going to nursery and we can see how much she has developed. The nursery is always clean and the kitchen is spotless. Yes, the building is dated but I guess nothing we can do about that.
Made us feel very welcome from day one. From the taster sessions to actually starting, the staff have been excellent in settling my child in; as well for myself they have been very reassuring and made me feel comfortable as my child always comes home smiling and happy!
My son has been in the baby room and toddler room he’s been there since he was 9 months old he’s almost 2 and a half now. He gets on well with all the staff and I do as well. Can’t fault the nursery I know he’s safe he’s having fun and he’s learning now.
My child has settled in really well and has learnt a lot since starting at the nursery. I can see how much progress he has already made! The staff in the Toddler room have been amazing at supporting him in settle!
My daughter started nursery in September. I am very happy with my decision for this school, I had heard about it that it is very clean, everyone is very kind, and now that my daughter is going, I see my daughter has learned a lot in recent months. I'm very happy, she tells me a lot when she comes home. I recommend this nursery, if anyone asks me for a good nursery, I tell them Busy Bees. Thanks a lot.
Busy Bees Thurmaston is a great nursery. My son has learned so many things and made so many friends and he loves the staff. Everyone is so well prepared and caring and loving. I’m 100% sure it was the best decision to choose Busy Bees for my son's development.
Our daughter was already settled at another nursery, but one conversation with the Centre Director was enough to convince us this was the right place and that moving her to Busy Bees was the best decision. My daughter has just moved up to the next class and the transfer to the next room is good. The staff is very friendly and the learning activities they do is just brilliant. I would definitely recommend this nursery 100%.
My daughter currently attends Wednesdays and Thursdays all day in the Buzz preschool room. The staff have helped me transition my daughter from pulls to pants with ease. My daughter comes home from nursery and tells me all sorts of things she's done throughout the day. She enjoys it and cannot wait for the next time she goes back. The nursery as a whole is fantastic. Throughout the whole process from her starting in September 2022 till present I haven't a bad word to say about the nursery and often recommend to family and friends.
Our daughter absolutely loves the nursery and is thriving at Busy Bees. So far, it has been a reassuring and pleasant experience. My daughter seems happy, cheerful, and entertained. The staff are experienced and enthusiastic. The learning and development needs of the children are catered for. Quite happy overall.
The staff at Busy Bee are warm, professional, and clearly passionate about their roles. They take the time to get to know each child individually, tailoring activities to meet their developmental needs and interests. This personalised approach ensures that every child feels valued and supported.
One of the standout features of the nursery is its outdoor play area. The garden is equipped with various play structures, offering children plenty of opportunities for physical activity.
In summary, the nursery excels in creating an inclusive, and stimulating environment where children can thrive. The staff, excellent facilities, and wide variety of meals make it a top choice.
