The staff are very caring and treat the children well. The place is always tidy and my son has a good day.
The transitions to each room have always been done well and the communication about what they are learning each week is good.
The communication via the app has been excellent and it is always lovely to see pictures of activities she is doing whilst i am at work during the day. She has really thrived and come out of her shell. The Pre-school has played a huge role in this and has prepared her very well to start school this year through their various activities . I am grateful to all the wonderful; staff and key workers who have looked after my daughter
A very warm and friendly atmosphere, the staff always make me and my child welcome. All staff pay attention to details on the smaller things like remembering the child's name, which makes the experience very personable.

Food is prepared on site and is healthy and balanced even if my youngest falls asleep before pudding!
Busy Bees is not the cheapest nursery but that said can you put a price on the care and attention I know they get? We did try a different nursery for our second child but this fell far short of what we came to expect from a nursery.
Busy Bees Nursery if you are reading this, thank you for everything you have done and continue to do and special thanks to the management team and all the Ladies for taking such good care of us and our children.

Busy Bees at Nottingham City Hospital is a lovely nursery. My son's keyworkers have been great at letting me know how he is doing and updating the parent app with activities and photos. They have always taken his interests into account and put on activities he would enjoy. His learning and speaking has developed so quickly since starting nursery in 2020.
Excellent nursery. Happy children. I'm always informed of my little boy's development and progression. Staff are kind and caring. He is always well looked after and is excited to go in the mornings. I have never worried about leaving him, even on his first-ever day. My little boy will be staying at Busy Bees until he goes to school now.
Our little boy loves going to Busy Bees Nursery. Friendly staff, clean and safe environment.
Staff are always friendly and my little girl loves coming and having cuddles, doesn't seem too upset to leave mummy. They are always pleasant and know who all the parents/children are.
All the staff are fabulous, each of the rooms has been really friendly and welcoming as we've moved through the years.
The admin and "back of house" team are unsung heroes also.
There is an environment that encourages learning both in physical development, early years letters and numbers and also in social skills. Our daughter got on well with lots of children and staff.
The team are responsive to any feedback from home and give details about how the children are getting on.
I would happily recommend this nursery to all local parents.
Thanks so much, Busy Bees!
The nursery has wonderful staff who develop great relationships with the children, and there are always great activities/initiatives for the children to get involved in.
The preschool learning has been especially amazing and really helped to get our child engaged in learning numbers and basic reading and writing skills.
My eldest child has been at Busy Bees since he was 3 months old and my youngest since she was 6 months and I have always felt secure and happy leaving my children with the girls at the nursery. Both love their time at the nursery and I feel like they are being continuously developed and are always busy. I love the online learning journal where the keyworkers can share the activities that the kids have done at the nursery with me and I can do the same with things the kids have done at home. I always receive a phone call if my child has banged themselves at nursery and am texted with key messages about the nursery (be that reminders of planned closed dates (bank holidays) or planned events). I especially like the extra attention the nursery goes to with out of hours events, such as the summer fair, Christmas party and the graduation ceremony.
The summer and Christmas fairs are always great too!
Thanks, Busy Bees for looking after my children so well.
Overall this is a lovely nursery. It is clean and well maintained. Staff are very friendly. There is a fantastic menu for my Son, plenty of activities to keep my Son entertained. He always appears happy at nursery. I enjoy the parentzone app as it allows for good communication, regular observations and photos.
My Daughter has settled really well into her nursery, this can be attributed to the fantastic staff. My Daughter has built a fabulous relationship with one member of staff, creating a platform for her to develop skills and knowledge in an environment that feels safe for her. This member of staff really knows my Daughter's likes and interest and supports her, every growing, personality. I look forward to seeing how my Daughter further develops in her current room and how she progresses through the various rooms.
I would not hesitate recommending this nursery as somewhere you can be confident that your child will get the very best.
My daughter has been at the nursery since she was one years old and is in pre-school at the moment. She looks forward to going to nursery each day and I can see the learning and growth in her development which is supported by the fantastic staff. I drop her off knowing she is cared for and safe which is perfect for any parent.
I am very impressed that my son has two books that come home with him. One is his food and sleeping diary, and one is about his development or achievements that I can write in myself and also the nursery to me. I have phoned to talk to my child's key worker on several occasions and been transferred straight over and my concerns have been dealt with promptly.
I was hesitant for my 1st child to attend nursery. From day 1 I was put at ease with the friendly and approachable staff and the whole environment and atmosphere of the nursery. My daughter loves coming to nursery and her social skills and other developmental milestones have surpassed those of other children her age, which I entirely put down to her experience and enjoyment of nursery. Her key worker is lovely and I have no reservations leaving my little one with her and her team. Excellent.
Superb nursery, great staff, brilliant menu.
We find the nursery very good. My son has developed into a very clever boy. We cannot recommend it highly enough.
