Staff are amazing! Nursery is fab... service in all 100%. I have now used two of your nurseries and wouldn't go anywhere else... above and beyond. My little girl absolutely loves coming and spending the day learning with all the staff.
Your positive feedback will be passed on to staff at nursery, we are sure the team will really appreciate your excellent feedback.
The staff at Busy Bees are extremely friendly and welcoming. My son is in the toddlers room - we are kept up to date via the app which the staff fill in excellently. The education plans are up to date and always discussed with us. My son has fun with a range of activities within the room and lots of chance to get outdoors.
We will endeavour to maintain the quality of care that you have experienced during your time as a parent at nursery.
I recently travelled from India to Edinburgh and finding a good resourceful and friendly learning place for my 4 years and 10-month daughter was a worrying thing. My friend/colleague recommended Busy Bees at Edinburgh Park. My experience with them from day 1 have been extremely good and the way supported me to settle my daughter is so appreciative and thankful. Their staff, teachers and management are all excellent. Thank you so much. I recommend this nursery to all working parents.
A safe and friendly nursery. Energetic and enjoyable. Staff are friendly and extremely hard working. Management are approachable and eager to give practical tips about our day to day issues. Parents are also given daily feedback. The nursery offers various activities and extra classes. The facilities are safe and encourage kids to explore different areas. Finally, the nursery provides healthy, tasty food which is loved by the children.
Both my children have attended Busy Bees nursery and they both enjoyed this experience.
The staff have helped in my children's development and education resulting in my children becoming confident, resilient and kind-hearted children.
My son has been attending Busy Bees at Edinburgh Park for over a year now. He started in the babies room and is now moving to the Toddler room. I could not be happier with the service and care. All of the staff are extremely friendly and always willing to speak to you about your child's development and daily activities. The staff ratio to children is excellent and I know my son is very well looked after. The nursery has been renovated recently and the children have a lot of space to run around and play. The variety of activities in the rooms is immense and the children are given a lot of freedom to choose what they want to engage in. They spend a lot of time on singing, dancing and playing instruments and I am amazed with the rapid development of my son in these areas and he absolutely loves it. In addition, the nursery offers a great menu and balanced diet for the children and I am reassured that my child is being provided the right nutrition. Highly recommend!
My son attends nursery on a full-time basis and always seems excited to go in each morning. The food provided is freshly made, healthy and my son likes to get extra helpings so I'm pleased to see him enjoying his food. The premises are always clean and there are loads of equipment for children to play with. The staff including management are outstanding and every day at pick up I get a detailed narration of how my son has been; including naps, what activities he is engaged in and how he has been overall. The care that is provided is exceptional and seeing my son be happy in the nursery makes me very happy.
The nursery has been great for my little boy who is only just turning one/ He enjoys going to nursery and the girls are great with him.
One thing that would be better is getting a daily diary more regularly as we have only had this once.
Busy Bees at Edinburgh Park have been the most supportive nursery in all aspects and not just with my child's development. The staff have always spent the time to explain what has happened throughout the day and any upcoming events. Never had any worries/concern of my child's wellbeing - amazing nursery.
Lovely friendly nursery, with excellent staff, food menus and outside space.
My children have attended from 5 months old and received excellent care at each stage of their development from the fabulous staff in a warm, caring environment.
My son is always happy and comfortable at nursery and with the staff. All staff members are very approachable and easy going. Management go out of their way to accommodate within rules of the nursery and help. It's just a great place with genuine people.
We are very happy with this nursery. Staff are very friendly and our daughter likes the nursery and the staff.
I am very pleased with the care being provided to my son from this nursery. They are taking care of his diet (as he is a vegetarian). I see a lot of improvement from the beginning til now. It is good and overall staff are really friendly and efficient. Impressed with the activities they do with the kids and timings are flexible. Overall, I'm a happy parent to sent my kid to Busy Bees at Edinburgh Park and highly recommend to friends.
It is good value for money as nappies and all meals are included in the price. All meals are lovingly cooked/prepared fresh on site every day.
This as well as the generous opening hours, 7.30 am to 6 pm, are ideally suited for working parents.
The nursery lacks a bit in outside space but has a lovely inside atrium space with play equipment.
Overall a good, clean, nurturing space for kids and loved by both my children.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone.
We brought our daughter to the nursery 3 months ago from another 'award winning' nursery where she was labelled autistic with no evidence and with a bad habit of biting when stressed. The Busy Bees staff and management are simply amazing. They are professionals but at the same time show much-needed empathy. The nursery setting is open space, clean and friendly; our daughter is a different child now. She has learnt how to express herself better, she is more calm, confident and we can see that she feels secure. She has found people who actually care for her. Different strategies have been put in place to help her mitigate the biting and the staff takes its time to help her and accommodate all her needs and ours. We feel lucky to have this kind of service and have a peace of mind knowing our daughter is with good and professional people. Thank you.

From a young age, I had decided that I wanted a career in the Early Years, so I began my HNC in childcare and education as soon as I left school. I have been working at a senior level in private nurseries ever since leaving college. 22 years later, I completed my PDA Level 8 and have now completed my PDA Level 9 in Management and Leadership, with 24 years of experience in childcare.
I began my Busy Bees career in 2016. I love being outdoors and enjoy giving the children in my care lots of different high-quality experiences, whether this is indoors or outdoors.
In my spare time, I love spending time with my family and friends as well as following my local football team with my husband and son.
