As a nanny, I love picking my grandson up from nursery as he is always happy and tells me about his day. The nursery will bend over backwards for the children to make sure they have lots of fun. Great, healthy and homecooked meals. On World Book Day the staff will make sure all children are in fancy dress, even if someone forgets. July is when my grandson leaves for big school and we will miss everyone.

My son has attended Busy Bees Lancaster since September 2022, from the first initial visit I felt completely comfortable with the staff and the nursery itself to leave my 1 year old with them. The nursery has such a warm and welcoming feel, the staff go above and beyond for you and your little one and nothing is too much to ask for. The management are very approachable and friendly. Taking your little one to nursery for the first time and someone else looking after them is never an easy transition as a parent, but the staff made this transition so easy and relaxed. My little boy loves going to nursery and this is down to the staff and the activities and facilities they have. He always comes home with a smile on his face and as a parent that speaks for itself.

This is my second child attending Busy Bees now. I felt so confident with this nursery that my youngest started there at 14 weeks old when I went back to work. The team are fantastic-they are caring and look after each child as if they are their own. My baby loves going to the nursery each day. They are all very welcoming and the children are always doing activities to keep them busy. The staff really care about the children and nothing is too much trouble. The children have plenty of toys to play with and space to move around in. I would not send my child anywhere else. Would highly recommend it to anyone.

The staff are brilliant and so attentive to my child's needs and always check in regularly with my child's dietary requirements, as she's current dairy and gluten-free. Handover, morning and evening are friendly, but the only pointer I have is, in a morning, is to ask if there is anything they should know before I leave e.g., sometimes, I give her medicine when she needs it and I have to prompt to mention it.

In the short time he has been there, the feedback and updates of his days are a joy to receive.
My son has been at nursery for a few years now and we have no trouble. They have helped him with his speech and how to share and play with others.

Brilliant nursery. Very welcoming and very helpful when moving my son from childminder to nursery. They made my son feel calm and were very comforting to him when he got upset on his first day.

My son started nursery in September and he absolutely loves it. The staff are great and the nursery is managed really well. I would definitely recommend this nursery. There is a great range of food on the menu and the app is especially good.
