My son has attended Busy Bees since 6 months old, I had been looking at numerous nurseries around the area and the moment I walked into Busy Bees I knew it was the one! I had so much anxiety returning to work but the staff made me feel at ease during the whole process. I cannot thank the manager and the team enough for the care and professionalism and a big thank you to the chef for filling his tummy with delicious food. Two and a half years later and he's still loving every session, he runs up to nursery doors each time and it's such a nice feeling to see that my son enjoys it so much. I can highly recommend Busy Bees to families, I trust the girls so much with my son.
This nursery has been excellent from the first day I had a look around. My daughter has settled well here. Initially, she was unsure but the staff took their time and really made the effort with her. The staff are amazing! I can see how much she has developed in the four months she has been there. Would definitely recommend it!
This is a clean and fully equipped kindergarten. I am quite satisfied sending my children here. Especially here, there is a very friendly manager. Although childcare costs are quite high, they are well worth the cost.
The nursery itself is always clean, organised and the staff should be proud of the work they do every day. My daughter is now 17 months old and she smiles and runs straight in when she gets to the nursery gate which is reassuring. She always has such a fun and enjoyable day! More importantly, she has come on leaps and bounds. The updates are key to any parent and Busy Bees always ensures they ring parents if needed and the app helps you track how your baby is that day. Also, the picture updates are adorable! Overall I couldn't thank all the staff, they are all a credit to the nursery.
My little girl has been going to Busy Bees for a few years now and she loves it. The staff always seem very friendly and helpful. My child has never had any problems since she's been going and the building is very secure which is a must in childcare. Highly recommended.
Both my LGs have attended this nursery. My youngest is still there and will attend preschool in the next 12 months or so. I honestly can’t fault it. The setup, the communication and most importantly the staff are wonderful. Both my girls talk about the wonderful days they had/have at nursery. It has a real family feel with the same nursery staff looking after both of mine with a 5 year age gap. The building itself is purpose built not converted and has such a nice feel. The food is first class. I am a working mum that works out of town so also really benefit from the 6.30pm close time.
My son has been coming to the nursery since he was 1 and he's always enjoyed the activities on offer and he has always interacted well with the other children and the staff. At age 2 Health workers picked up on my son being behind on communication so the nursery worked hard with myself and authorities to offer him extra help. I think the nursery staff have helped him a lot more than the authorities to get his confidence out and improve his skills. He loves the football every week and has his friends now who he talks about. I feel that he is ready for primary school because of the time spent at nursery, so I am very happy with his progress and the nursery, in general, is a very clean, warm, welcoming place to come to. The staff are very friendly to both myself, my family and my son.
This nursery is amazing. All the staff are welcoming and refreshing. My child has been here for 3 years now and without the help, guidance and development techniques my son wouldn't be the independent young man he is now. Thank you Busy Bees for being a massive part of my son's early years!
My little boy started at this nursery in February 2019 he was 10 months old. He settled in really well. This nursery is fantastic. My son never wants to come home. All the staff are so professional and friendly.
Fantastic nursery, my child has learned so much since he started 2 years ago, the staff are amazing and so friendly, I recommend this nursery to all my friends and family. The staff do a lot of activities with the children and have also started a football session one day a week that my child absolutely loves. They have also started to use an app where you can keep up to date on your child's meals and they also do a child observation where they upload photos of your child that only you can see.
I have been coming to nursery to drop off and pick up both of my Grandchildren and I am more than happy with the care, education and nurturing that they have received during their time here. It is a very happy place.
My niece has attended Busy Bees for approximately 2 years. When I collect her she is always happy and the staff are always friendly and approachable. The nursery is clean and the resources on offer are exceptional. In addition to this, I love that the nursery has its own chef and all the meals are freshly prepared on site.
I would defiantly recommend this nursery to anyone who asks.
On dropping off my goddaughter for the first time, I have to say how impressed I was with the nursery. The staff were extremely professional, kind and caring. The room I dropped her off in had loads of activities set out ready for the day and she was very excited to get started.
All staff very approachable couldn’t recommend this place enough!
There is a welcoming feeling as you walk through the door which allows myself as a parent to trust the staff with my child.
My child’s motor skills and confidence have grown throughout her time at Busy Bees and more recently she has been coming home singing songs and rhymes and also counting very fluently which is brilliant.
I am very happy with the service provided and my child loves attending nursery.
I would thoroughly recommend Busy Bees at Wigan, Scholes as the mother of 2 children who attend there. The staff are lovely and welcoming and I feel very assured and confident in leaving my children in their care.
The staff are very friendly. The nursery has just had a new manager take over. I have noticed that there seems to be new staff a lot. It would be better for the children and reassurance for the parents that the staff are permanent so both children and parents can get to know them. The nursery is very clean, child friendly and is very welcoming. I feel very comfortable letting my child stay there while I'm at work.
Thank you for your review of our nursery at Wigan Scholes. We have not recently had a new manager take over, and should we in future we will communicate this formally to all parents. We understand your concern of staff, however some have left due to personal circumstances and change of career and...

Hello, my name is Jenni Bursnoll and I am the Centre Director at Wigan Scholes.
I am a fully qualified Early Years Educator and I have experience in working with all age ranges throughout our setting. My career with Busy Bees began back in 2004 as an apprentice at the nursery. During my time here, I have carried out the roles of Health and Safety Co-ordinator, Room Manager and Assistant Manager before progressing to my current role. Whilst working, I have gained qualifications in Leadership and Management through the Busy Bees Training Academy.
I believe that quality training and team development ensures that we can provide the best care and experiences for the children in our setting. Children learn and develop as individuals and this is reflected in our approach when providing learning opportunities.
