Overall Experience
My child is very happy here, excellent services. Better play equipment could be provided in outside area - slide etc.
Not enough staff to child ratio in the mornings sometimes. Overall, very happy with care, staff can comment on what my child has said in the day which I love.

Food choice is excellent, welcoming my child in mornings, very good to make her feel at ease.

Overall Experience
My two children attend Busy Bees (ages 1 and 3) and I am happy with the care, attention, support and time the staff spend with both of them. Their key workers are amazing, the girls have formed a special bond with them and importantly I trust them with my girls and to look after them as I would.

The assistant manager is always there is needs be and the staff are friendly. She has an open door.

Overall Experience
My little boy has bloomed like a flower, it's amazing. He loves the setting so much it's a struggle to get him out to go home. Since he's been at the setting he's coming home laughing and smiling and full of happiness, which he didn't do before and he also comes home singing songs he has learnt during the day.

Thank you for bringing out the best of my little man. The outside space is so amazing!

Review from Farha (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Busybees at Rushmere St Andrews have been fantastic with my daughter. The entire staff is very helpful. The girls in the baby room are fabulous. My daughter has a great bond with the girls in the baby room. The entire staff has been great answering my phone calls during the day when I ring to check in on my daughter who is full-time at the nursery. The changes I have seen with my daughter, who was clingy, is now a very confident and social and happy girl. The nursery has been very good with my request for food for my daughter as we do not eat pork, they offer a vegan alternative. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed the activities during summer, I wish there were more during winter. Admin have been great with sorting childcare vouchers. Staff are very helpful with medication requests. The girls would ring me if my daughter was poorly straight away and also update me (sometimes 2 hourly).

Overall - a really good nursery and my daughter was looked after very well and I would recommend this nursery.

Review from Natalie G (Mother of Child) published on 3 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child enjoys his days he spends at nursery settled into preschool well and is always excited about going to nursery to see his friends. He loves his food so getting fed throughout the day with homemade cooked meals is great and there's always something different on the menu. The staff in his room are always welcoming and very pleasant and my son has warmed to them over time and always seems comfortable being left with them. He loves taking part in phonics and having a story or any singing activity.
