The little guy loves it and developed so well so far. I couldn’t ask for more. He has been there since 1 year old and gone through all the rooms, he has had amazing care throughout his whole time there. The support he receives to develop is amazing.

The team in the baby room at the nursery are excellent. They are very friendly, take a real interest in what our daughter is doing and are helping with her development. When the babies are upset they take the time to hold and cuddle them to help them settle. One staff member specifically, is excellent.

All the staff are wonderful and have helped my son adapt so well that he even waves goodbye to me as soon as we walk in!
Thank you so much! I feel at ease knowing my son is in very good hands and
I love the app and seeing what he gets up to during the day! 10/10 for the app too, thank you.

My son currently attends the Busy Bees La Providence nursery and has recently moved into the toddler room. Our experience so far has been great. The team communicate everything that we need to know, they are very caring and knowledgeable.

The nursery continues to impress me. The thought, attention and care they give to my son is amazing. They go out of their way to support him and make his time there enjoyable whilst developing in a safe way. They are proactive with ideas to resolve issues facing e.g. potty training, fussy eating, refusing
bedtime, and adapt their routine to support. They are open, friendly and most of all, my son loves attending.

Busy Bees is a lovely nursery, such great caregivers who work there. I feel so comfortable leaving my baby with them, they are all so caring and kind and I know my baby feels this too as she stretches out to them for a hug every time I drop her off. Very happy my daughter goes here, she loves it. Thank
you.

The team at the nursery are so welcoming to all the children. She loves the activities that get set up for them and her almost weekly outings on the minibus getting to explore Jersey with her friends.
The food is great, smells and looks wonderful when I pick her up early and get to see them sitting
quietly eating.
Preschool room is very well led.

Caitlin Harris

Job Title: Centre Director

I have worked in the childcare sector for 6 years. I started working with children when I was 16 in Primary School settings supporting in Reception classes and After School Clubs.


I joined Busy Bees as an Early Years Educator in the Baby Room and worked my way up to become a Centre Director in September 2019. 


I hold a CACHE Level 3 Diploma in Childcare and Education and I am currently carrying out the CMI Level 5 Management Course at Highlands College. I also hold a current Paediatric First Aid qualification. 


At our nursery we aim to meet the vision of Busy Bees in everything that we do and ensure that all children that attend our setting are provided with the Best Start in Life. We work closely with parents and other professionals to ensure all needs of the child are met. We encourage children to use their curiosity through play and allow free-flow play throughout the nursery.


I have a little boy of my own and he also attends the nursery. I couldn't be happier with the quality of care he is given and the relationships he has created with the team.
