Kids 1st at Ingleby Barwick team I cannot sing your praises enough. I am a first time parent and what a wonderful journey it has been so far. You are all friendly, welcoming, approachable and such wonderful people for continuing to work throughout this dreaded pandemic. Feels like a home away from home.
My son is now settled and walking into nursery such a happy little boy, thank you so much for caring and educating him through his start in life. He is now doing so much more and that is all thanks to you all. I have been a very nervous parent and you have all put me at a lot of ease, thank you for that. The parent app is so incredible and such a fantastic way to communicate throughout the day and feel reassured.

Wonderful nursery, staff are excellent and friendly and my son absolutely loves going and has a wonderful time while there. He regularly brings home pieces of work he has made and he has made excellent social developments during his time at Busy Bees. I can not recommend it highly enough.

By far the best nursery! Every member of staff greets us with a smile and are always approachable.
My son has been at Busy Bees for 6 months now and has settled in fantastically, his learning improves week on week and I can’t thank the staff enough for their hardworking, caring, happy attitude towards
the children at the nursery.
I will be sad to see my son leave when he starts full-time school.

Both my sons attend this nursery and have done since they were about 4 months old. Wonderful staff and facilities and I could not ask for better care for my children. My eldest son is just about to leave to move to big school and he is so sad to leave the nursery behind. He will miss all the staff and
his friends immensely.

Our son started at the nursery in Feb 2018 when I returned to work. I was so nervous about leaving him but the staff were amazing and made me feel so more confident leaving him. He has settled in perfectly and he happily goes in and loves spending time with the staff and other children. I am so happy
with this nursery and can’t praise them enough.

The nursery staff and manager have been very patient and helpful with my son starting nursery this week, the settling in sessions were a great idea to get him used to a nursery environment. He really looks forward to going back.

Amazing nursery and staff. I can go to work and not be worrying about the well being of my child. Super friendly and approachable staff, always doing fun activities with the children. My son genuinely loves all the staff that care for him and he shows no signs of upset when I drop him off. Some days
he doesn't even want to come home! A* service and staff

My Grandaughter has been attending this nursery since she was only 3 months old. The nursery and all the staff are outstanding.
The nursery is always clean and the facilities are brilliant. They follow the curriculum which gets children well equipped for school. There is always different themes and
activities. All the staff are very welcoming always have a happy warm friendly manner about them.

Both my children have attended this nursery past and present since 2014. The staff are fantastic and so welcoming. My little boy loves going and has a great relationship with his key worker. The nursery have been extremely helpful in the past with my eldest and his additional needs. I wouldn’t hesitate
to recommend the nursery to my friends and family.

The twins have been going since they were 10 months old and have developed loads due to staff at the nursery. They have built some fantastic relationships and through getting to know everyone, they’re genuinely nice people and adore the kids.
It’s a massive step to trust other people with your children
and we have been at ease since day 1. We have recommended them to other friends and they’re of the same opinion

Busy Bees has been great for my son. He is very happy there. Staff are hard working, genuine and caring. They make a real effort with learning activities and crafts. They go the extra mile to provide us with feedback at regular parents evenings. The outdoor area is a great asset!

My son has been attending this nursery for over a year and started when he was just 6 months. I cannot praise this nursery and their staff enough! They made the nursery transition so easy and it is lovely to chat to the staff when I drop him off and pick him up.
The nursery is always clean and tidy
and the level of care the children receive is exceptional. My son had dairy and egg allergies and he was well catered for. Communication to parents is efficient and I love getting the odd photo of him having fun. Amazing nursery, couldn't be without them!

I simply could not be happier with the service, care and attention all of the staff pay to my son and I will have no hesitation at all in recommending this nursery. I will also be sending my second son once he is ready to the same nursery, my first son has come on leaps and bounds in education and confidence
and truly loves going there.

My son attends this nursery and I couldn’t be happier. All the staff are fantastic and can’t do enough for both the parents and the children. They have brought my son on so much and helped him to engage with other children and even helped towards his weaning. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
