Our son attends Busy Bees 2 days a week at Royal Preston Hospital. The staff are welcoming to us all and we feel happy and confident in leaving him in their care. It is a very good nursery that is incredibly convenient for hospital staff.
My child is just about to start preschool and started going to Busy Bees at Preston Hospital when he was 9 months old. From the beginning, the staff have always kept me fully informed of his progress and activities at the nursery and made me feel at ease leaving him. This was really important to me as a new mum going back to work full time. My son loves going to nursery and telling me what he's been up to that day. He is always surprising me with what he has learnt.
I personally think this is a very excellent nursery. My son has developed loads since starting 2 months ago. The staff are very friendly and helpful. My son has settled in so well and has his favourite teachers already. I love the fact they give you updated developments of my son.
My son has attended the nursery since May 2013 and really enjoys himself, has lots of friends and talks highly of all the staff. My daughter started in May 2016, she settled really quickly. The staff are fantastic and are aware of the children's needs.
My son has been attending Busy Bees since January this year, he attends full time and loves coming into Nursery. Each member of staff goes out of their way each morning and night to make my son feel welcome and special. I connect is updated each night so I know everything my son has been up to, as well as seeing beautiful pictures of what he has been creating in the day. He is a very caring child and I feel that has a lot to do with the key staff in his room. We receive pictures each day to show his creativity within the room and the staff displays A3 posters of fun filled activities that go on each day in nursery. Management are attentive and proactive and are always welcoming. I would always promote this nursery to others, and encourage friends to bring their children here.
All of the girls are always happy to help with any queries that I may have. At the beginning of this year (whilst still attending nursery) my daughter was diagnosed with epilepsy. To say that the girls put my mind at ease is an understatement. Thanks to their care, attention and willingness to learn more about it, I felt completely satisfied that should my daughter have a seizure whilst in their care, she would be in safe hands. This really is a fabulous nursery and the staff (especially the management team) are a credit to the Busy Bees Company.
As a mother of a child who has attended Busy Bees at RPH over the last 2 years I cannot praise the management team and the nursery nurses enough, this is an excellent nursery and provides high-quality childcare. Parents can be assured that their child will be cared for by exceptional and motivated staff that clearly enjoy the role they do. All aspects of the children's needs are managed appropriately and every effort is made to ensure the children feel at home.
At Busy Bees the children are looked after within a purpose-built and secure environment with the necessary toys, equipment and activites to keep children stimulated. The menu has also been very well thought through and provides children with balanced and nutritional meals.
The nursery also uses 'Parent zone' enabling parents to review a timeline of their child's activities which are also mapped to the developmental assessments (Early Years Foundation).
My child has been encouraged and guided in his development, creatively and academically in ways that I would never have thought of. Since joining the nursery my child has become a lot more socially confident and now enjoys playing in groups of children and
is happy to be left with any of the members of staff.
During his time in the nursery various requests have been made by myself for extra input of care either for medical or personal care reasons and these have always been met by the nursery staff as required.
Also, the menu at the nursery has given my child a healthy varied diet that he seems to enjoy.
