Always caring and considerate. We can't say enough good things about them, they've been so helpful with our sons weaning journey and are always really communicative with updates which makes us feel really reassured.

Review from B B (Mother of Child) published on 2 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the entire team for the wonderful care and support provided to our child. We truly appreciate each and every staff member for their dedication and kindness.
Although we may be more familiar with a couple of staff members our child often talks about, we understand that this is a true team effort, and we are grateful to everyone involved.
It makes us so happy to see how much our child now loves nursery. She talks about it often and is always excited to go. This is a big change for us, as our previous experience with another nursery was very difficult, and she never enjoyed going. It used to be a daily struggle.

Now, everything has changed. She looks forward to nursery, and that means the world to us as parents. We are incredibly thankful for the warm, caring, and nurturing environment you have created.

Overall Experience

Very happy with my son's experience at Cornwall road. I sent my first child here and it's been even better this time round. I'm really impressed with the staff and my boy has genuinely bonded with them; it is clear that he is really well looked after. They get a great variety of food, regular activities and lots of outdoor time. Couldn't ask for more.

Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with Busy Bees Cornwall Road. Jade and the whole team have a professional, caring and proactive approach with how they care for our 2 year old daughter. She loves going every morning and often doesn't want to leave when we go to pick her up. She loves the food they provide and we love seeing all the photos, videos and updates that get sent via the app everyday.

We have consistently seen high standards of care. My daughter absolutely loves attending nursery. There's also a wide variety of cultural events and activities on offer for the children throughout the year.

My daughter has some additional needs and this is handled sensitively an appropriately by the nursery.

Overall Experience

All the staff have been so lovely and welcoming since my little girl started and has helped her settle quickly. She loves coming home and telling us all about what she has learnt in their preschool room. The creativity of some of the staff is outstanding; and clearly gives the children experiences they may not receive out of the setting. Would highly recommend Cornwall Road Busy Bees.

Review from Jenny B (Mother of Child) published on 20 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
An absolutely fantastic nursery, my son has attended since he was 18 months old and is now 4 and a half.
The staff make days at nursery enriching, engaging and happy. He loves his time there, and I love that I have somewhere to drop him off that he will happily run into each time he goes, and I pick him up every day chatty and full of stories of his day.

Reports and updates from his key worker are great, I will be gutted to lose this setting from our lives when he goes to school!

Review from Louiza N (Mother of Child) published on 11 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
From the moment I stepped in to Cornwall Road Busy Bees I knew it was the place for our little one.
I had heard great things from friends who also had their children there but after our visit I didn't need to look round any others!
I was worried our son may struggle a bit with separation anxiety even though I knew he was ready as he's such a sociable little thing, but he absolutely loves it and babbles away constantly to me as soon as I go to collect him!

Everyone is so friendly, and the app they have updating you on their day is extremely reassuring!

Reply from Jade Garrard, Centre Director at Busy Bees Harrogate Cornwall Road
Thank you so much for your feedback.

We are so glad that you both feel settled and that he babbles to you about his day!

We have 2 children with Busy Bees, they are very well taken care of, always leave happy and have developed so much under the care of all the staff.

We wouldn't want our children placed with any other nursery.

Review from Carl L (Father of Child) published on 19 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has been at Busy Bees Cornwall Road around 6 months now. All the doubt, worry and apprehension a first time parent has about sending their child to nursery ended after the first week. The staff go above and beyond to ensure the safety and happiness of the children, and treat them almost as if their own. The nursery is in a fantastic location - parking is easy, and it is very leafy. Everything inside the nursery is designed to capture the imagination of the children and to aid their development. The communication to parents is extremely good and we are kept well informed throughout the day via a great app, and at pick up/drop off times by the staff. All of the staff deserve the utmost credit as they work incredibly hard. We absolutely made the right choice when choosing this nursery, and would encourage any other parent to do the same.

Reply from Jade Garrad, Centre Director at Busy Bees Harrogate Cornwall Road

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. We understand how important it is for first-time parents to feel confident and reassured, and we're delighted to hear that your worries eased so quickly. Our team truly strives to create a safe, nurturing, and home-from-home...

An absolutely fantastic nursery with kind and caring staff. They always have lots of fun and engaging activities for the kids and it is always a very happy building to walk into. Both my kids have attended full time since 9 months old (now 4 and 2) and both have always been so happy there.

Overall Experience

My little boy went to another nursery for a few weeks before it closed unexpectedly so he has had to settle into a new setting twice. He was so distressed for the first few sessions but the staff were amazing and now a few weeks later he skips in with not even a kiss goodbye and gets upset when it's not nursery days now

My youngest has attended Cornwall Road since summer 2023 (and his older brother attended from 9months to 4 years old).
We love this nursery. The staff in every room are friendly and very supportive.
We've never had any worries or issues. If we've ever had any questions about funding or additional support we've always had quick and helpful replies.

It's just a really lovely environment.

Review from Olivia R (Mother of Child) published on 24 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot recommend this nursery enough. My son has been here since the age of 1 and he is now 2.5 years. I had noticed some gaps in his development which also matched with what the staff picked up on as well, the support they continue to give to my son and to both me and my husband is unmatched. They reassure us weekly and plan monthly meetings to ensure development plans are in place which they update regularly to ensure they are in line with his progression. They liase with the local SEN support team as well so I know we are getting the right kind of support. My son has grown massively in confidence and it's so amazing to see him now run in the nursery with excitement each week.

Reply from Jade Garrard, Centre director at Busy Bees Harrogate Cornwall Road

We have loved seeing their confidence grow since the transition to the next room! Thank you so much for this lovely review - we strive to deliver the best care for all our children at Cornwall road and its lovely to hear this from parents as well as to see this in practice in the room.

My daughter has been with the nursery since she was 1 and she has just turned 2, she has been in Bombos 1 and 2 and has loved it! She has created such great bonds with the staff and they have always been super accommodating and friendly! My daughter is now moving up to Bumbles and is super excited! We have also loved the renovation of the outdoor area which we feel is much safer and inclusive for all ages so they can run around and let off steam :)

Overall Experience

My eldest Son went here from 2020 to 2023 and my youngest joined in 2024. Both boys love it here and the staff whether long term, training or new are always lovely and approachable. Both my children have allergies and these are managed very well within the nursery. We receive updates on the app throughout the day including updates on learning and development. Staff have always been very supportive with various areas such as toilet training, talking and preparing for school. All round I have no complaints about our nursery and I fully plan for my 3rd child to attend next year!

Review from K C (Mother of Child) published on 21 May 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our 9 month old daughter has just started at Busy Bees and we have been very impressed with the standard of care provided so far. The team have helped her to settle in and accommodated her individual needs, especially with sleeping, which was one of my main concerns before she started. The meals are great, she has tried a whole range of new foods, but the main thing I have been impressed with is how much time the children spend outdoors. Most days when I go to collect her they are spending time in the garden, which I am really pleased about. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Thankyou for this lovely review - so happy that she is settled and enjoying her time at nursery.
