I just love the warmth and friendliness of the staff at the nursery. I feel very welcomed every time I visit. My nephew is always excited to go to the nursery which is always a great sign he has fun.

Review from Jadine H (Mother of Child) published on 30 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I believe overall the nursery is a good nursery.

My child has been there since 11 months old, now 4 and has learnt a lot, has had good key workers who are there to support my child's needs. They give good feedback daily and my child's fed a good variety of healthy food.

If any problems have happened, the nursery has been quick to sort it and resolve the problem as best they can.

So overall I'm satisfied with Busy Bees at Lewisham Day Nursery.

Review from Dionne P (Mother of Child) published on 30 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child has grown from strength to strength at the nursery. He has developed loads and has learnt so many new skills in the 10 months he has been attending. The staff are very friendly and experienced and my child feels at home there. After an adjustment to his new surroundings at first, he now can't wait to leave me in the morning. The food menu is very wide and my child has started to eat more after a little fussy start.

I would definitely recommend this nursery to others.

Overall Experience

My child has settled very well in the baby room and the nursery has supported her needs as well as mine. I feel more confident leaving her than I would have as she greets her carers with a smile and clearly enjoys exploring the room and resources.

Overall Experience

My son really enjoys his time at Busy Bees. He has a smile when I drop him off and one when I pick him up too! The staff are also very warm and caring - always giving me personal updates about how his day went, what he enjoyed doing, how he napped, etc -- they are definitely giving him plenty of care and attention.

Review from Ruth H (Grandmother of Child) published on 28 June 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My grandson has special needs, and we have had a lot of support throughout. The nursery has welcomed several outside agencies and implemented the suggestions they have made relating to his care. They (the nursery) have also played an important role in securing an EHC plan for him.
The staff are caring and friendly and have made every effort to accommodate my grandson's needs. I feel they genuinely care for him and enjoy him. It is a little hard to fill in all the categories below as my grandson's needs are not standard so I find it hard to judge some of the facilities (learning, or activities, for example).

Also, he only attends about 10-11 hours per week.

Overall Experience

This is an amazing nursery. All the staff are extremely passionate about all the children's progress and will always give complete attention to every child's needs and encouragement to better them and their learning. My son always struggles with his eating and is a very fussy eater but the staff and teachers always encourage him and successfully manage to get him to finish his meals. I am very pleased I chose this nursery for my son even with all the security they have in place you know your child is in safe hands.

Overall Experience
Our son enjoys his time at the nursery and we have peace of mind that he is in good hands. The staff are really friendly, warm and enthusiastic. They discuss with us his progress and any issues to take note of, which is really helpful in knowing how he is progressing.
There is a good selection of toys and activities so we know he is well entertained and learns a lot. He enjoys being in the outdoor area and we know he has a lot of fun in the outdoor play area especially in the summer.

We are happy with the food offered - it's very interesting menus. Initially, we thought the food would be too sophisticated for him but he enjoys the variety and the different taste.

Overall Experience

They are supportive to my son who has some challenge with the clarity of his speech. He is always willing and happy to be at the nursery. There are improved activities to improve learning. They also offer varied menu to appeal to picky eaters. The outside play area could be bigger tho. Would recommend.

Review from Liz P (Mother of Child) published on 16 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our child has been attending Busy Bees at Lewisham Nursery part-time since March 2015 and has progressed through baby and toddler rooms to pre-school. We are very happy with Busy Bees, all staff (including office and chef) are friendly and caring.
The organisation and management of the nursery is good. The rooms are well stocked with toys and books and there is a wide variety of activities every day. Additionally special events such as dressing-up days or pumpkin carving competition.
I particularly like the modern building with all the rooms on the same floor. The outdoor space is small but well used and the toddler and pre-school rooms have direct access to the garden.
There is a good variety of freshly prepared food provided for meals.

We have always been given daily feedback on activities, how much food eaten and mood during nursery. The nursery regularly asks for information on home activities and also suggests activities enjoyed at nursery that could be tried at home.

Overall Experience
Busy Bees at Lewisham is a great nursery. The staff have always been efficient, friendly, supportive and kind. We have total trust in them looking after our 2-year-old son.
The classrooms are clean, bright and full of exciting toys. Meal time is very well organised and our son enjoys the dishes that are made daily on the premises.

I highly recommend this nursery. We visited 3 others before choosing Busy Bees. For us, the staff, space, other children and cleanliness were the best we had seen. We are very happy with our choice.

Review from Praks K (Mother of Child) published on 9 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our 14 month old daughter has just started full time at this nursery and she is already having a fantastic time. The staff are great and have been reassuring and updating me and my husband who have found it difficult to be away from her, as I am sure many parents can relate.

Our daughter is out in the nursery garden on a daily basis to get a breath of fresh air and has already been painting and creative in general. The activities are great to keep her busy, distracted and most importantly key to her development. We are also pleased with the food menu, as there is a variety of snacks and meals and we know that she is keeping to a healthy yet fulfilling diet.

We receive a daily written report and our special requirements have been kept to, as all children are different and have different needs. They are doing a fantastic job and it has given us confidence that our baby girl is being well looked after.
