I can't fault Busy Bees at all. My daughter has been coming here for 3 years and learns so much each day. She has an amazing bond with her key worker and the other amazing staff. Most days it's hard to pull her away! Highly recommend.
I would highly recommend this nursery to anybody they helped turn a frightened, confused child into a happy confident little boy.
Everyone has been so good. I was returning to work from maternity leave and was a little nervous, but my little girl loves it. She has settled so quickly and the staff made me feel at ease. The outdoor area is amazing and the food/weaning menu is perfect. Couldn't ask for any more from Ashton House Busy Bees. Would recommend to everyone.
My children love coming to nursery and always tell their friends about it. Whenever my children go in with an interest, the staff are always thinking of different things they can do to encourage them to learn new things from this. It's amazing to see what they come up with and how they get so much from just talking to my children. When their grandparent comes to collect, she always has so many nice things to say about what the staff have told her.
Appreciate the friendly, helpful and professional attitude of all staff. Nothing is too much trouble. Everybody goes out of their way and always with a positive and welcoming way. I really am pleased with the nursery care given to my granddaughters - they are always known by name and not a number. Well done everybody - keep it up.
I went into the office for more info regarding the 30 hours of funding. The manager provided all the information I required and also more, going over and beyond.
We are rest assured that our daughter is safe and cared for while we are at work. She is happy to be dropped off and happy when we collect her in no rush to leave!
This is an outstanding nursery. I was reluctant to send my child to nursery full time and my previous children have both been brought up at home. However, Busy Bees has converted me completely. My son has progressed amazingly and we have never had any cause for concerns.
They are simply fantastic.
I have two sons being looked after at Busy Bees, and I honestly couldn’t praise the place enough. Not only are they both learning loads but you can tell that they are both happy, confident and safe. My eldest is now singing songs that they have taught him and my youngest is no longer the clingy baby. Yet, for me what makes me super happy with the place is that they really do care about them both. I see every day when I drop them off and collect them. Knowing that my boys are loved and safe is everything.
My son started at Busy Bees in April. He has settled really well, all staff have gone above and beyond for him meeting all his needs and him learning new things daily. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone and also have other family members' children that I have recommended. Since he started the nursery management have been really supportive with leaving him making sure I always felt reassured.
We have used Busy Bees Nursery now for 2 years since our daughter was 9 months old. We've found that it's great, staff are polite, friendly and I know that my daughter's needs are met and the care provided is directed firstly at the children. Really happy and would advise anyone to use.
Staff and management are always friendly and go out of their way to help with any questions or query’s I may have about the nursery.
Both our children are happy and making progress in their own way here. Staff go above and beyond regularly and are very approachable (particularly middle management, floor managers, room leaders)
Overall, excellent facilities. Staff go above and beyond for the children. Only comment would be compared to our previous nursery there could be more recycling bins to teach kids about environmental issues.
Friendly, dedicated and professional staff with good and clear bonds with the children. Good value for money. Both of my boys love Busy Bees nursery, they enter with a smile and leave with a bigger one.
Overall this nursery is a great nursery. I have been using this nursery for over 4 years and 2 children!
My child loves going to nursery and already had joined in many new activities with the support of the staff.
The rooms and activities are age appropriate and the staff know the children and share what they have been doing.
The nursery is Excellent, my son loves going to Busy Bees Ashton House and has excellent bonds with staff and children. The nursery has helped him become a confident and independent little boy. I would definitely recommend the nursery.
My little boy enjoys the nursery and has come on since he started in May this year. The staff are very friendly and always helpful.
The only issue I had and did upset me a little was that come September all children had their coat hook and picture up and my lad had been missed for some reason although he had one previously. I felt a little saddened by this. Other than that a great nursery.
