My child is always happy when he goes to nursery, he’s also happy when he’s there, he’s started learning more. I’m also very happy, everyone is so supportive and kind. I am really happy with my choice to let him go in this nursery.

Review from J R (Mother of Child) published on 23 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Everything about signing up was efficient and quick.
My daughter does get sad when I leave her but staff say she is fine 5 minutes after I leave.
My daughter seems to be trying new foods and actually has started being less fussy at home with food.
There is an app but it's not really updated, sometimes just to say she's eaten a snack. I would like more photos and showing her being ok to put my mind at ease and to show what she has been learning/playing.
The staff all seem caring and give you a brief update on what they've done in the day.

Some ratings I had to mark as satisfactory as I just don't know the answer.

Review from Becky B (Mother of Child) published on 23 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Had a couple of issues at the start but one of the centre directors went above and beyond to rectify things for us and we have become so comfortable and happy with how my daughter is coming along there. Sending your child to nursery is difficult and nerve-racking for any parent but seeing how well she is doing has taken all that anxiety away. The centre directors have always been very patient and helpful with any queries we have had and every staff member we have found has been very pleasant. My daughter loves her time there and we can really see how her positive experiences at the nursery are reflected in how she is at home. We have now increased her sessions as she loves it so much and plan to increase further over the next few months as we are so pleased with her progress.

Lovely nursery, where our child has a great relationship with all the staff who are warm and welcoming. He really enjoys attending and always comes home having had a great time.

We are happy with the wide range of activities, which is refreshed often and they have a lovely outside space for him to play in.

Review from T B (Father of Child) published on 22 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As a parent we all know that putting the care of your child in others hands is a difficult and daunting decision however, I couldn't be happier and more content with our decision to have our daughter at Busy Bees Wootton Fields. She's developed a wonderful bond with those that take care of her and other children, her development is accelerating as she is exposed to a variety of activities, learning and play and she actively and positively refers to nursery and the things she does and learns. We are so thankful for our daughter's key workers and especially those who supported her transition into nursery at the beginning. I cannot recommend Busy Bees Wootton enough.

Overall Experience
Great staff who really take the time to get to know your child. My daughter has left happy each day and has learnt so much from her time with Busy Bees Day Nursery. They keep the app up to date so we always have a good idea of what she's eaten and been up to. The staff seem really happy and love what they do.

I would gladly recommend to anyone in the area.

Review from Debbie P (Grandmother of Child) published on 31 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My granddaughter attended Busy Bees for 3 years before starting school and my grandson has been attending for over a year now. Both of them have come on leaps and bounds due to the lovely staff at Busy Bees. I have found them all to be patient, kind and fun, making the children happy to be there. The food is well balanced and lovely too. Well done to all the staff at Busy Bees Wootton, you all deserve the accolade of outstanding that you’ve recently received from OFSTED. I happily recommend Busy Bees.

Review from S P (Mother of Child) published on 31 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter attends Busy Bees Day Nursery, at first I was anxious to send her in as she was so little but the staff at Busy Bees made our journey so much easier, I cannot fault them. My daughter loves going to nursery and it’s so reassuring when she reaches out to go to her teachers in the morning. Since joining she has flourished in so many ways, she enjoys playing, eating and learning. The staff at Busy Bees are amazing at what they do and show so much care and attention to our little girl. I feel safe and happy to go to work knowing my baby is in safe and nurturing hands.
I think all the staff are amazing but especially particular members of staff are excellent at what they do and my daughter loves them!

Thank you for what you do.

Overall Experience
My child always has an enjoyable day at the nursery, the staff are friendly, approachable and helpful. She has built a really good social awareness since joining Busy Bees which has been great to see since she found this difficult being born during covid.

My child is in her last year next year so will be excited to see how the nursery prepares her for school.

Review from Tiffany C (Mother of Child) published on 25 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We first started Busy Bees in Wootton Fields in the summer of 2022. From the very start myself and my child have loved the experience and opportunities available each day at the nursery. The activities, energy, comfort, and loyalty to each task is above and beyond! Not to mention the wonderful assortment of food which my child loves to eat.
Wootton Fields have consistently communicated with me as well, supplying useful information and updates as the weeks progress.
As a first time parent, I have also felt supported, informed, and listened to as well, which I really value.

Thank you Busy Bees Wootton Fields.

Review from Tinu K (Mother of Child) published on 4 November 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have seen a lot of negative reviews about Busy Bees, but I have no complaints about the Wootton Fields Nursery. The staff are always very friendly. Most of all, my daughter absolutely loves the nursery and her teachers. She has been to a different nursery prior to Busy Bees, but she was always reluctant and tearful when I took her there. I feel this is because she gets more individualised attention at Busy Bees. I have no regrets and I would recommend the nursery to others.

Review from Karishma C (Mother of Child) published on 5 September 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Me and my child have loved each day of every week my son spent here. Food: excellent menu and if the child doesn't like it, they give choices. The staff are so welcoming and nurturing. My son learned so much and in a few days, I could see that in his conversations. He was always happy and eager to go there and actually, I had to drag him out to come back home. They have so many types of toys and learning activities. The outdoors is simply fab, I have not seen anything like that. I wish my son had come here sooner and stayed longer (we are moving cities). Special love from mummy and son.

Overall Experience

The support in here, is excellent. My son has received 1-2-1 for his speech delay and I feel he is being supported and encouraged every day. The improvement I have seen in just a couple of months, is amazing. All staff are so friendly and helpful, I cannot thank them enough for all their hard work and commitment to help the children. I am recommending the nursery to all my friends, looking for childcare.

very good service and my son is very happy with you. I didn't have any problem whatsoever. One of the senior early year's educators was very welcoming and always smiling. I think everyone, as well, they are friendly. I just remember more, that particular member of staff. Thank you for all the work that you are doing. God bless you all.

Overall Experience

Although our two children have only just started at Busy Bees, two weeks ago, we are very happy with the welcome, care and attention they have been given, to make their settling in experience smooth and as successful as possible. We really appreciate the personal touches and efforts to cater to their needs, creating a special play area based on one of our children's interests and also paying attention to new foods for our smaller baby. We are kept updated frequently and can rest assured they are in good hands.

Review from Valeria B (Mother of Child) published on 25 January 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am so happy that my daughter still going here. As she is three years old we have opportunities to leave her from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm at nursery which is comfortable for us to study and work. Due to COVID-19, our children are in a safe place. Staff are prepared for everything, for example, they email us about some positive cases and at the same time they already have prepared a plan of what is needed to do and keep an eye on them. As well as management is professional. If parents have questions about holidays or when you want to leave the child for extra two hours they find solutions promptly. I am thankful as well the education which includes a lot of activities, games and outside playing.

Overall Experience

Very lovely staff members, daughter enjoys going to nursery and is hitting more milestones, saying a lot more words, walking more confidently and is enjoying potty training. The physiotherapy lady goes and explains to staff about the child's needs which is lovely that the nursery are taking on the child's needs and what she needs to get more support in.
