Review from Disa G (Mother of Child) published on 20 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter currently attends this nursery and has done since she was 10 months, she has a great time at nursery. The communication between nursery and parents is excellent on the app, I feel reassured as a mother knowing my child's truly cared for. They take pictures of her engaging in activities and developmental she had come so far already. I am very impressed with this nursery. The food is freshly prepared by an onsite chef and she eats better than me. The staff are very friendly, caring and approachable, the managers are very present around the nursery.

Overall Experience

I have a little girl that has been going to Daventry busy bees for the last few months , she absolutely loves it! She smiles when I drop her off and she is still smiling when I pick her up! She has changed so much already, learning/doing new things every day , which i believe the nursery has a lot to do with. The girls are lovely who work there. I am very happy with the nursery so far.

My daughter came here and now my son has followed. He is thriving just as she did. His speech has come on, his drawing and throwing, along with other motor skills. He has lots to tell me about his learning and friends. As always very happy with the care he receives here.

Whilst there have been difficult periods in the 3 years of attendance, these have always been dealt with professionally. Really friendly, understanding and helpful staff who see my son as an individual and recognise his needs as such.

Overall Experience

Both of my children attend Busy Bees and have done since 9 months old, and I couldn't be happier with the care they've received. Every member of staff is caring, supportive, and dedicated to helping children grow and reach their milestones. Communication is excellent, and the app makes it easy to stay updated each day with what matters to me as a parent. Highly recommend

I cannot fault Daventry BB, they are so caring and all the staff have been amazing since my daughter started there when she was 8 months old. She's now over 16 months old and has been thriving ever since she started.
The food is always nutritious and my daughter has tried some of the best combinations of food, also giving me ideas on what to cook at the weekends!

Highly recommend sending your child here, you won't be disappointed.

Overall Experience
Our son started attending Busy Bees a week ago, and we couldn't be happier. From the very first settling-in session, the staff made us feel completely at ease. The daily updates we receive via the app are a highlight of our day.
It's a clean, bright, and stimulating environment where children are clearly the priority.

Highly recommend!

Have gone above and beyond for my son.
Currently waiting for send test and they have done everything in their power to support us with this.
He has come out of his shell so much since being at this nursery and that is thanks to the brilliant environment all the staff provide every day.
He loves going to school and all the staff that he works with.

I just know when hes there is is really well looked after by his key worker and every member of staff.

Review from K B (Mother of Child) published on 23 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The environment and all the staff at busy bees are amazing! Very easy to talk to and answer all my silly questions. They always have loads of different activities set up, better than anything I could imagine to do at home!
It took around 2months for my child to settle in and for those 2months all the staff offered them lots of cuddles and comfort! Now they are so confident and thrives in and outside of nursery. With a special thanks to Rachel in the first steps room, you can see she has spent so much time to win his trust and bring him out of his shell! I would/do recommend busy bees nursery!

Thank you!!

Overall Experience

Beautiful setting, kind and compassionate staff members who genuinely care about their role!! as a Mum who has gone back to work from maternity leave after their first baby, it's very hard to put your trust in a stranger. However, at Busy Bees I was able to put my full trust in their care with their updates through their app and their genuine honesty and care for my little ones well-being! Thank you for all that you do

Our son has been going here since he was 9 months old and he has come on so much since starting! Nursery has helped him so much with his walking and talking! He talks about all his friends, talks about the staff and how his day has been! It's great to hear that he's had a good day. They are always outside which we love and he loves going in every day.

Review from Aaron N (Father of Child) published on 24 May 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been attending this nursery setting since December 2020 and has grown so much in that time. Not being able to do many social activities with my son during Covid lockdowns made me and my partner worry about how he would settle with new faces and be around the other children but he settled really well and we cannot thank the staff there enough for all their help and work that they do.

The staff are friendly, professional and continuously provide outstanding care to all the children. There are many activities that the staff provide, not only inside but outside too.

Review from Sara D (Mother of Child) published on 1 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little girl started at Busy Bees Daventry at 9 months of age. Since then she has come on so well in such a short space of time. I really rate the staff at the nursery, they are so friendly, welcoming and approachable. The staff make the activities exciting and fun for the children. The communication books show a real range of activities are being completed in nursery. They have been exceptional at managing the COVID-19 guidelines which is a huge weight off a parent's mind when leaving their child during these times.

Overall Experience
My son has been at Busy Bees in Daventry since January 2017. He has been in the baby room, toddler room and now in pre-school.
I am very happy with the level of care he has received throughout his time at Busy Bees and am pleased that the experience will set him up for life at school this September.

He has so much to do at nursery each day both indoors and outdoors and I am really happy with the whole setting the management, staff, resources and food.

Overall Experience

The staff at Busy Bees Daventry are always warm and welcoming. Their passion for development and care is obvious. My little girl was well supported when she started there after moving to the area and loves going to nursery. She enjoys the range of activities and loves sharing these experiences with friends. I’m always well informed about her day and staff are keen to support with big changes such as return after lockdown and toileting. I fully trust my daughter in their care.
