The level of care and attention for the kids is really amazing. I especially like communication from the app on what my child has been up to, what he's eaten during the day and if he's had a nap.
All staff members are always more than happy to help and give great feedback on my son's development. We recently told the staff that our son liked space and planets, and they went above and beyond to add this into his daily learning! We felt really heard and understood, and I appreciate that. Can't fault the nursery at all! :)
The kids are actively busy indoors or out.
My child loves to be in this environment and has a good relationship with all her piers.
You can check in on the app to see what your child has eaten!
any issues they call.
The kid just loves his nursery and all the stuff members , I also feel great to know that my child is in a warm and safe place and has been able to learn new things and improve his skills that help his development and all of this thanks to the amazing staff
I drop my daughter off knowing the staff will feed her nutritious meals, she will have a fun filled day and that the staff know her well enough to pick up even the slightest thing bring off. I cannot ask for more from the nursery, she will miss it greatly when she starts school but we are so thankful our youngest will be starting and cared for by such a great team.
My daughter loves nursery and has done in each room she has been in each keyworker has been lovely and have helped my daughter's confidence grow. They all know her and what she likes. They are helping her become more social in the room with other children which is amazing. They also offer so many different foods that sound Amazing.
Our daughter as went to Busy Bees for a couple of years and we are genuinely sad that she has to leave for school soon. All of the staff have been fantastic. We've enjoyed reading about all of the activities she has been getting up to with all of her friends, running free with her pink ladies. Thanks to all of the learning and development Busy Bees has provided she is now more than ready for school!
My daughter will be leaving to go to school after summer and I just want to express what an amazing experience we have had during her time at nursery thanks to the staff at busy bees halbeath. The staff go over and above way to provide the best care and education for the children, my child has grown so much in skills and confidence thanks to the nursery. Even with so many children in their care I really feel like they have all got to know my daughter so well and are so helpful and friendly. Nothing seems too much for them, they even put on special events outside of nursery time like Easter egg hunt, Christmas fair and even the parents are thought of with events for Mother's Day/Father's Day. I could not have wished for better experience for my daughter.
My youngest has settled in like a dream and also absolutely loves nursery (16months old) the girls in the baby room are so attentive.
I love the way we catch ups with management when we drop off and pick up- they care and properly get to know the family which makes a massive difference.
App needs updating in a more timely manner.
Management are great and very supportive. Children are really well cared for and my child appears to be very happy here!
Meals are really good and also smells amazing. Well fed and watered.
Being a vegetarian my daughter is enjoying their recent menu. Children also get to choose between two options and I think that's great.
Thank you so much Busy Bees for everything.
The food always sounds delicious and smells great. My son loves it. It's a rare day when he doesn't eat everything on offer at Busy Bees.
The children also get so much outdoors time. This is really important to me. Hats and suncream are a must and are managed so well by the nursery.
Management seek feedback, invite participation to parent council, share improvement plans, publish newsletters, reminders to parents and reinforce standards.
The nursery makes significant effort at valentines, Mothers + Father's Day, Easter, Halloween, Christmas and graduation for preschoolers which are so appreciated!
Highly recommend all aspects of busy bees halbeath - thank you years of impressive service to our family!

Both of our sons attend the nursery, and they loved it from day one. It is the first nursery that they both enjoy and we are fully satisfied with. The care is exceptional and our boys are loved and their development is always key in their care. The staff are amazing, always there for them and are working hard to provide new activities daily and to engage them in activities. The garden is well looked after and provides hours of fun for the little ones. The food is varied and plenty, my boys love the food in the nursery. I would always gladly advise choosing Halbeath Busy Bees. the manager is always keen to help and is spot on if you need help or advice.
Hello, Wow! Thank you for this glowing review! We are delighted your little ones are having a good experience at our Halbeath nursery. Best wishes, Busy Bees
My daughter absolutely loves attending this nursery. The team are fantastic with her and supports her development every day. Her enthusiasm for attending nursery is there for all to see. The team overall, are fantastic with the children as well and care a lot about the children.
Hello, wow! Thank you for this glowing review! We are delighted your little one is having a good experience at our Halbeath Nursery. Best wishes, Busy Bees.
I am extremely happy with the nursery. Both my sons are attending here and they are very well looked after. We get updates about their activities, meals etc and when we pick the boys up the staff always know what were they up to during their day! The rooms are spacious and welcoming and there are so many different toys and learning experiences. My older son had some tough times settling into a different nursery previously and he absolutely loves going here! He has also formed close bonds with some of the staff and his peers. During spring and summer if weather allows, the doors to the garden are kept open (with staff staying outside and inside as well) and the children are free to roam. Our sons love staying outdoors, so this is very important. There is plenty of garden space and activities, toys etc. The management is exceptional too, nothing is too much trouble. I can't thank the staff enough for their care and professionalism.
Hello, we love reading feedback like this! Thank you for sharing it with us. We will pass on your lovely comments to the team at Halbeath. Best wishes, Busy Bees.
My daughter has been attending since she was 5 months old. The staff have all been so friendly and approachable. My daughter settled really quickly and it was reassuring to know she was being well looked after. We had informative updates daily on our daughters day and we could see by pictures, observations and communicating with the staff what our daughter had been doing whilst at nursery. The nursery has recently been renovated and it looks amazing! The rooms are inviting and the setting is home from home like. The garden spaces are incredible and they have so much variety of toys and different learning experiences both indoors and outdoors. Our daughter is now in her last year of Pre-School and the staff from all rooms have been like a second family to us. Our daughter always comes home speaking lots about nursery and all the different experiences she has taken part in. We can't thank the staff enough for all their support, hard work and professionalism throughout.
This is a fantastic nursery, my son has been attending since last year and his confidence has grown. He has made a few friends and has a good relationship with the teachers. They learn something new every day and I love that they play outside in the fresh air most of the time. We are all very grateful to the staff for looking after our wee one so well.
My children have attended the nursery since 2015. During that time I have always been so impressed with the staff, their professionalism, empathy, knowledge and general support. Both my children have benefitted from their time at the nursery. Their development is so well rounded which has made them extremely prepared for school. The only thing I have questioned in the past is the cleaning standard, especially the rugs which can collect so much, these are not cleaned enough.
