They make you feel welcome and talk to you. They always tell me what my son has been doing that day and let me know if they have any concerns.
My son and his key worker get along really well which puts me at ease, this has also helped him become friends with the key worker's other children.
The nursery has been great. My son came from a childminder. He flourished when he came here he is so confident and happy. The staff are so friendly, caring and I have always felt my son was in a safe and happy environment.

My little girl has been at Busy Bees since she was 10 months and the relationship with her key workers is essential. Her current keyworker works amazing with my daughter. The whole staff team work well and since being there our little girl is blossoming.

I moved to Leicester in November from Lancashire. My 2 year old daughter had to leave her nursery up north on the Friday and start her new nursery Busy Bees on the Monday having no settling in time.
The staff were extremely helpful and supportive to my daughter and she settled in instantly. Nothing is ever to much trouble and I find them to be very accommodating. They provide daily updates on what my daughter has been doing and her progression. They work closely with me to ensure the same discipline and encouragement is carried out at nursery as at home and follow routines.
I cannot thank the staff enough for their help and support to me as a single parent.
My daughter loves this nursery and I can't see her going anywhere else. It has really helped her to come out of her shell and build her confidence no end. I would highly recommend this nursery...It's just a shame I can't afford to send her more often.

My child attends this nursery and has been with the nursery before he was 1 when he was under Bush Babies, he's now 4 and leaving for school this year, as a mother it's very worrying to be leaving a child when you're not there but the welcoming and trust you receive from the manager and staff at Busy Bees, Bush Babies - Leicester South Wigston is very overwhelming and makes you feel happy when leaving your child. The manager is great and is very understanding and great with the kids as are all the staff there, definitely a credit to the company, my son has achieved so much within the nursery and is very ready to be going to school with all the work the nursery puts in with the children, also is very very happy and settled here.

We were so thrilled to have our son attend Busy Bee's South Wigston and we will be sad to leave this wonderful nursery. We were visiting from out of town for a family emergency and were looking for a last minute full-time nursery spot for our 2-year-old for a few weeks. Busy Bee's were incredibly accommodating and supportive, providing us with a safe place for our son, where we knew he was in excellent hands, so we could focus on dealing with our family circumstances. The staff are incredibly friendly and kind to us and our son, the nursery is wonderful and our son raves about the food. He will miss his nursery teachers and so will we. We thoroughly recommend this nursery to any prospective parents.
Staff are very friendly and welcoming, grandchild loves seeing the staff and her friends. Grandchild enjoys the meals at nursery and looks forward to eating with her friends. My grandchild has made huge progress since starting in December, thanks to the Lilac Bush Staff.
