Review from A R (Mother of Child) published on 23 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been at the nursery since she was 10 months old, and she is now 2 years old and 8 months old. I thoroughly recommend the nursery, and the staff here are so lovely and helpful! My daughter adores it, and as I work in the hospital, I do too, as it's so easy to drop her off/pick her up and reassuring knowing she's having a lovely time while I'm at work. She loves the activities and the meals, and the staff are so sweet with her. She's had Senco assistance, and the nursery has been so supportive and wonderful in aiding her with her speech development and keeping us updated on her improvement. You can really tell that they love and care for the kids here, I couldn't recommend them enough!

Review from J B (Mother of Child) published on 23 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We have been using the nursery since January 2023, and the staff have always been very reassuring and kind. They have always greeted us at the door with a smile and given a detailed briefing at pickup. I greatly appreciate the care that they take with our child, they communicate development very quickly and map out learning milestones very well. I also enjoy the snapshots we get of our child interacting with others and playing independently.

I am so grateful to the Busy Bees team for the impact they have had on my child's socialisation skills, thank you so much!

Overall Experience

My daughter is been in this nursery since 2022, and I have to say that since the manager now came into the nursery I give her 10 out of 10 for everything. Everything has improved so much since 2022 for the best, and the kids and the parents are very happy.

Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with Busy Bees, it was definitely one of the best decisions we have made. We feel confident that our daughter has been given the best possible start to her life and that the education she has received at Busy Bees will assist her in her future.

Review from Sandra S (Mother of Child) published on 20 July 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Busy Bees Watford Hospital is the best nursery ever! My daughter settled in so quickly, it's unbelievable! The staff members always ask about my daughter and if we did anything nice in the evening so that they can make activities based on that. At the end of the day, they always give me feedback so I'm at ease knowing that my daughter had a great day at the nursery. Oh, and the chef is amazing as my daughter eats it all and then asks me to make the same food at home! The manager always greets us with a smile and asks us how we are doing! Best nursery ever!

Very good nursery. My daughter loves it and enjoying it every day. Lovely staff. Clean, nice food, my daughter is very fussy about the food but 2-months after she started to eat everything! Learned a lot while we have been attending nursery, great progress and she made friends there.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Busy Bees Watford for more than two years and will be soon starting school now. All the staff members are very caring and lovely. It is very easy to approach admin if any concerns. I am very happy at the Busy Bees response during the Covid situation as services were available to keyworkers’ kids throughout. I would definitely recommend this nursery to my friends and family.

Review from Nina W (Mother of Child) published on 10 May 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My son started in October 2017, when we moved from London. He had a lovely relationship at his previous nursery and we were worried about his transition. As expected it took 1-2 months for him to settle. The staff were very accommodating and caring about his needs.

He's thrived in this environment. Everyone greets us with a smile. They really put the kids at the heart of what they do.

Overall Experience

My children have really enjoyed being in nursery. I have seen how much they have developed. Nursery has become an integral part of our life because the vast amount of resources available to them to grow and develop is immeasurable. They look forward to seeing their friends and teachers. They respond very well to their friends and teachers. They have learnt skills which I could not have thought them solely at home.
