I am so grateful for the staff they have been wonderful with my little boy who has found it difficult to settle in. Working with the staff to make sure he gets the most out of being at Nursery. Paige and Vicky have gone above and beyond always welcoming, very approachable nothing is too much when it comes to the children I can honestly say they care. I cannot thank you enough for what you've done for him.
The staff clearly care and love each individual child, and take time to get to know their specific needs.
Couldn't be happier.

Our little one has been attending the Busy Bee since 11 months old and he is 22 months now. Thank you to all brilliant staff for all the hard work you do. Thank for keeping our little one entertained, and supporting his development, in the Busy Bee our son does educational activities and has a lot of fun playing and having an social interaction with his friends. It is so important for working parents to be able to leave their children with people they trust. Thank you for creating an environment for our son where he is happy and likes getting back.

The only downsides are that the fees feel a little expensive with very little flexibility and some corporate rules can limit the individuality the amazing team bring. Overall though, our children have thrived here & we highly recommend it.

My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 9 months old so she's been in all 3 rooms. The girls who run the rooms are so caring to each child's needs and created a beautiful bond with my daughter. She enjoys nursery and talks about her carers there fondly which obviously gives me peace of mind when I have to drop her off for work. Nursery has allowed my daughter to grow and they have helped her adjust to new changes with patience.

My daughters been attending this nursery for little over a year now she started in the toddler room and is now due to leave the pre-schoolers room and has loved being at this nursery. The staff are all fantastic, well trained and show alot of care for the children. You are kept well informed of what they get up to day to day and staff are always available and open for a chat at drop offs or pick ups if you have any questions or concerns, the manager is brilliant aswell and always has the time to speak to you if need be she also helped me with arranging my funding days the best way in which to save money which was a big help as i wasnt sure on how funded hours work. The building is very safe and well equipped with a lovely outdoor space that my daughter loves to play in, i couldnt rate this nursery high enough and ill be sad for my daughter to leave she has thrived and learnt so much here.
