Review from Jessica C (Mother of Child) published on 9 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Wonderful team at busy bees Stansted Mountfitchet. Very attentive, understanding, empathetic and diligent. My son struggled to settle at first due to separation anxiety, but the team reassured me and always sent photos of him happily playing two minutes after I left! He now runs in! The environment is always maintained to the best standard, very clean and tidy, there are always fun activities that the little ones get involved in. Great structure to the day and my son actually eats things at nursery!

Thank you to all staff!

Overall Experience
We can't rate this nursery high enough. We have two children there, one in the toddler room and another in the babies room - both are lovely and spacious settings.
The staff throughout the whole nursery are amazing and attentive and management are brilliant and very supportive. They really take the extra step to ensure child development and update you with progress on their 'Bee Curious' curriculum.
We receive regular updates on our children's activities all day, including what they have eaten from the varied menu - and work with us with preferences (we're limited our toddlers day naps as an example).
We had our eldest at another setting in the area until this opened and it's incomparable how much of a nicer experience it is here.

Thanks to the team at Busy Bees Stansted!

Overall Experience

I was a very nervous mum about the whole concept of sending my daughter to nursery at such a young age. I heard great things about the down to earth welcoming management who were spending the time meeting with new parents ahead of the nursery opening. I went ahead for what I anticipated to just be a general chat about the new nursery. 6 months later my daughter attends 3 days a week & absolutely loves it! The most important thing is that my daughter is happy but the fact the management from day 1 have made me feel super comfortable & reassured is a double win. The communication is 5* between myself, the management & the staff in the rooms. All the staff are so friendly, I love the constant app updates so I can check what my daughter has been doing, photos, what she has eaten, how long she's slept, nappy changes etc whilst I'm working. The variety of foods she is given there is also another great positive! Would 100% recommend.

Review from Monika V (Mother of Child) published on 22 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We are so incredibly happy with Busy Bees Stanstead Mountfitchet! Leaving our daughter was daunting, but the staff made her settling-in process so easy and comfortable. They are truly caring, attentive, and professional, making the nursery feel like a home away from home. She has built such strong, loving relationships with her key workers, and seeing her run in with a smile every morning makes us so happy.
The facilities are clean, secure, and well-equipped for all needs. The food provided is healthy and diverse, catering well to allergies. I get great daily updates, and I love seeing the photos of my daughter participating in messy play and music sessions.
The range of educational activities-from creative arts to outdoor play-is amazing. I'm always amazed by the new skills she brings home. It is clear that the team genuinely cares about the children's well-being and development.

Thank you to the whole team for all the love and support!

Busy Bees has been a breath of fresh air after moving our daughter from another nursery, the staff are so warm and welcoming and have made our daughter feel very welcome. The curriculum they follow was a new concept to us and we love the structure that it applies to the children's day to day learning and mini- discussions!

Overall Experience

Putting your first child into nursery can be very daunting, but Busy Bees made the whole experience so easy for us. From the very beginning all staff have been so warm and welcoming.

Our child has settled in so well. At the end of the day we get a great update of what they have been up to and how well they have napped and eaten!

The staff are attentive, friendly, and genuinely seem to care.

We couldn't be happier with our choice and would highly recommend Busy Bees to any parent looking for a nursery.

Overall Experience

My little one attends busy bees in Stansted. She has come on leaps and bounds and her character has really come up. She is so happy in the nursery and she absolutely loves her key worker Sylvia. I feel so at ease when my little one is there. I was very apprehensive sending them to nursery but I was really put at ease. Everyone is very friendly and helpful and nothing is to much trouble

Overall Experience
I have been so impressed with Busy Bees since my daughter started end of January.

I am greeted every morning at the door and am always asked how my daughter is doing before I leave for work. I am super impressed with the app and how easy it is to navigate. Each day at pick up I am given a full run down of the day and how my daughter was and what she did by her key worker but also by anyone else who has watched her today. The reception staff are always incredibly polite and I feel fully confident that Busy Bees is the right choice for me and my daughter.

I've noticed a huge improvement in my daughter's communication skills since she joined Busy Bees Stansted Mountfitchet. The staff are always friendly, caring, and supportive, and it gives me great peace of mind knowing I can trust them with my most precious gift five days a week. She is happy, thriving, and excited to go in every day.

Our precious baby joined this Busy Bees setting in January 2026 and we cannot fault it at all. The setting itself is brand new so in fabulous condition and the space is excellent with a lovely outside area. The staff are so caring and kind and we feel incredibly lucky to have it on our doorstep. I literally do not have one negative thing to say other than we wish it had opened sooner so our eldest child could have attended! Thank you!

Overall Experience

The staff of my granddaughter's class are fantastic- I only know Caron and Jo's names. They are kind, welcoming to Gran and Mia. Mia runs off to join her friends no problem which tells me that she is very happy and settled, which is fantastic. Make drop offs easy. They are very supportive in every way. Thank you Busy Bees

Overall Experience
Our son loves being involved in all the activities that Busy Bees provide, and it's been wonderful to see how engaged and excited he is every day. The range of activities keep him stimulated and support his development in such a fun and nurturing way. We're especially impressed with how thoughtfully everything is planned to encourage learning through play and thoroughly enjoy seeing the daily updates we get from the team.

On top of that, we couldn't be happier with the level of support and care from the staff. They are attentive, warm, and genuinely invested in the children's wellbeing, which gives us great peace of mind. It's clear that they create a safe, positive, and encouraging environment where our son feels comfortable and happy. We're extremely grateful for everything they do!

Overall Experience

Busy Bees opening in Stansted in 2026 has been a godsend for our family and a great addition to the local community. We now have a pleasant walk from our home in the village to the nursery. The building was recently refurbished specifically for Busy Bees and is very modern and clean. The staff are so helpful and friendly and always make us feel welcome. Our son loves the setting and gets so much from attending. Communication is fantastic and the app is very convenient. Would whole-heartedly recommend this nursery to anyone considering it for their child.

The whole team are so great with the children, they have such fun with them and they do some wonderful activities with them.

Overall Experience

Our Son moved to Busy Bees Stansted when it opened in January 2026. The change of nursery was a great move for him and us. Louise, Sophie and the team are very supportive and are always on hand to help with any questions or additional support we need. They were particularly helpful with the settling process, allowing us to feel confident that he is having a great day each time he is attending. The activities they offer each day are really well structured and supportive of his development and in the short time he has been attending we have seen him really grow in not only his confidence but his personal development. The setting is very modern and clean and has so much natural light and outside space to play in too!

Daughter joined in January 2026 and is having the best time at the nursery, there is so much going on each day for them and she has made lovely relationships not only with the staff but the children in the setting too. Cannot fault the staff or the facilities, everything is clean and modern and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. You really feel reassured knowing your little ones is in the best hands.

My daughter transferred from another nursery in January when Busy Bees opened. She was happy before but is so delighted to go to nursery now. She regularly tells us that she misses the staff and her friends when she's at home. It's great to get weekly updates on what her age group are looking at, as well as more personal observations. It's been the best decision we've made for our daughter!

Lovely nursery! Staff are very attentive and caring, and it's a very clean and calm environment. They have got to know our child very well and she seems very happy at Busy Bees.

The staff are also brilliant at keeping the app updated, we get daily updates on our child's activity which is lovely, especially for a working parent it really eases the guilt! The app system is a great platform, paying invoices is extremely easy.
