Review from P B (Mother of Child) published on 25 March 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

As a parent, I was anxious as any parents would be, especially as he had no interaction with other children due to lockdown. The team at Busy Bees have been amazing, and have helped my son develop his skills, communication and overall his social interaction with other children, including adults. His confidence has received a boost, and now he is not shy and able to express himself. The team are helpful and take great care of each individual child, especially when it comes to development, and take comments on board to help support. So happy that my son has them to guide, support and nurture.

Overall Experience

So far our experience with Busy Bees is amazing. As parents, we always feel comfortable on the days we drop off at nursery that our boy is being looked after well. We love the fact we get updates throughout the day on our app and hear all about how our child is developing skills and learning new things. Would highly recommend.

Overall Experience

All the staff at Busy Bees Holmes Chapel have been so attentive and supportive following our daughter's return after the end of lockdown. They have gone over and above to help the children and parents adapt to the new normal. Professional, friendly and conscientious, we are so grateful for the happy learning environment they provide. Our daughter is thriving and developing well in readiness for starting school next year. The new outdoor play area has been a real hit with the children and it's great they can enjoy gardening activities too. A first-rate centre.

My son has settled into the baby room really well.

The staff are absolutely fantastic with him and we have noticed that he has come on leaps and bounds since starting there. He can't wait to get there in the morning.

Overall Experience

My nine-month-old son has only recently started nursery whilst I have gone back to work full time. I have been really impressed by the professionalism of the nursery and staff, they seem to take my son's well-being very seriously and I feel they treat him with respect, silly as that may sound!

The variety of activities and the food on offer is really impressive and I think he really enjoys his time there.

Overall, my husband and I are very happy.

Review from C Y (Mother of Child) published on 16 August 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has now attended the nursery for 2 years. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, they build great relationships with the children, there are no issues what so ever. At the handover, in the morning, she just goes off and starts playing or sits down for her breakfast.
To start off with she was a very picky eater, but now eats anything that you give her. I think that this has been helped by the freshly cooked food that she has at the nursery.
The nursery has recently had a makeover and looks excellent. The facilities in the rooms couldn't be better, there is a great mixture of toys and educational equipment. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds with her vocabulary and counting, and has gained a lot of confidence!!

She also loves to play out in the large garden, that is very safe and secure.

Review from Rebecca T (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The staff have made our experience very welcoming. Starting nursery with your first child when that child is a baby and you don't necessarily feel ready to juggle work and life with a little one, the staff at Busy Bees have been perceptive of how hard and challenging and emotional that can be. Flexible, kind and considerate. I sincerely hope that forms, admin and policies do not get in the way of that valuable face to face contact with parents.

Review from Alison M (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have always been delighted with the care, support and education that my daughter receives at Busy Bees at Holmes Chapel. It is clear that staff work hard at building very strong relationships with the children, ensuring that children feel safe and happy. When any problems occur, I have always been able to approach staff who have dealt with anything quickly and thoroughly. Communication is excellent- via flyers and noticeboards as well as electronically. In particular, the drop-off and pick-up communication is very good- key workers give us a lot of time, even when they are clearly busy. My daughter is very happy here because she is safe, listened to, well fed (!) and takes part in a variety of activities which are perfectly targeted to her age group and interests. I have recommended Busy Bees at Holmes Chapel to friends and have just enrolled my baby.

Review from Sherrie S (Mother of Child) published on 25 January 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
The staff at Busy Bees are excellent. I feel that they really care about the welfare and happiness of my daughter and are never too busy to share funny stories that have happened during the nursery day.

They encourage in all areas of eating and play and I feel that if I cannot look after my daughter due to work commitments, they are a very close second best.

Overall Experience

Great nursery, my children are very happy there, lovely staff that really care about the children. I feel comfortable going to work knowing they are in great hands. Both children are learning constantly at the nursery and attending has helped their development and supported in making them both sociable children. There are times in the past where staffing levels have seemed low, this seems to have improved recently.

Review from Claire G (Mother of Child) published on 1 December 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has attended Busy Bees since he was eight months old. As you can imagine I was very worried to leave him as a first-time mum, but I was soon reassured by the staff, who soon learnt his routine and kept me updated with what he had been doing after every session, including photographs which were always lovely to see. He is now three and has made lots of friends and I couldn't be happier with my choice of nursery. Each key worker he has had has been lovely and they have spent time getting to know what he enjoys doing and involving him in activities. All the staff are friendly and the manager always greets him every morning and says goodbye on our way out, which is always nice
The food he has is varied, all home cooked and he always eats everything he is given!

I would highly recommend Busy Bees and look forward to seeing what new activities he will be doing next year and can't thank the staff enough, knowing he is enjoying himself whilst I can't be with him
