Absolutely brilliant nursery and me and my partner are both extremely happy and have full confidence in the staff after our boy had a medical incident and it was handled absolutely brilliant and continued support
20 March 2026
Brilliant nursery with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a genuine sense of community. The staff are incredibly supportive, caring, and attentive, always making children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to learn and grow. It's clear they truly care about every child's development and happiness. They
know each child really well which is evident by their reports and are always willing to chat to parents at drop off and pick up too.

My daughter has recently started here and the staff have been incredible. I feel really confident leaving her there knowing that she is going to be well cared for. The entire facility is fantastic but the staff are the main selling point of the nursery and clearly take a lot of pride in what they
do. Each staff member knows all the children in the room and what they like (such as book preferences) and not just their key children. My daughter loves the food and has such an array of different meals which is helping to develop her tastes (as she's still weaning). Just overall fantastic nursery.

Friendly and helpful staff, they make great relationships with the children and make the children feel happy to stay with them. Good food. Love the app updates throughout the day which updates you on their food, nap, toilet trips, photos, any activities they have done.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery and would highly recommend it. The staff are fantastic-warm, caring, and genuinely invested in the children. They have built such a lovely relationship with our child, which gives us real peace of mind knowing she is happy and well looked after each day.
It's
clear that the team put a lot of thought into the activities they provide. Our child has learned so many new skills since starting, including practical ones like cooking and gardening, which she absolutely loves. The variety of activities really helps support their development while keeping learning fun and engaging.
Communication with the staff has always been great, and we've built a really positive relationship with them. It feels like a supportive and welcoming environment where children are encouraged to grow, explore, and gain confidence.
A wonderful nursery with a brilliant team-we're very grateful for the care and effort they put into what they do.

My twins have been going to busy bees meridian for over a year now, they have grown so much in confidence and I have noticed a massive development in there learning. Busy bees staff are always so kind and welcoming. I love how they use the app to keep me updated on the twins daily progress. The
meals are nutritional and varied giving the twins exposure to food we wouldn't typically eat at home. The twins always look forward to their nursery day which makes me happy knowing they are enjoying it.
16 March 2026
Nursery has really helped my daughter become independent as well teach and encourage life skills. The key workers are warm and welcoming and I still have a great conversation with some of the previous key workers. I will be sending my second child there this July too who I'm sure will also nourish
16 March 2026
Both of my kids went to Busy Bees and my third one will be starting in November. I have never had any issues. They are easy to communicate with and very caring towards my children. All the ladies who work there are lovely and welcoming. My son really enjoys going there. They also organise fun
activities for the children every day, which makes it even more enjoyable for them.

We have used this nursery for both our children and the team at the nursery have been amazing throughout. The team are passionate and really care for the children. This has shown through at very stage of our nursery journey with both my our girls. They set them up in the best possible way for their
next steps at school. Highly recommend.

Our daughter started nursery in April, from our visit we knew we had made the right choice, the transition into nursery was smooth and we has parents knew we wouldn't have to worry while our daughter was in there care, she gets so excited when we arrive at nursery in the morning, and can't wait to
go in, when we arrive she is greeted by her key worker and then goes to sit down for breakfast, we get regular updates throughout the day through the busy bees app, and it's wonderful to see her having so much fun and learning at the same time, thank you so much to everyone in the bumbos 1 team for helping our daughter settle into nursery and helping her grow, we hope she continues to enjoy her days in nursery has she now moves on in her nursery journey,

From the first visit when selecting nursery's at 26 weeks pregnant, I knew there was something special about Busy Bees!
Fast forward my daughter is now 11 months old and has started the Busy Bees journey 3 months ago and we both couldn't be happier!
The settle in sessions were a great
introduction of day to day life and left me confident about going back to work and my daughter in nursery full time!
All the staff are amazing and really show their passion in every interaction I've had! From key workers, management and even the chef!
My daughter has the best days trying new foods, new interactions and activities that have really helped her grow and develop!
I can't wait to see what the next few years of Busy Bees bring for her before the next chapter of school!
Thank you so far Busy Bees Meridian Leicester - keep up the amazing work!

My son has been attending this nursery since he was 10 months old, and now, as he approaches 3, I can truly say it has played a huge role in shaping the little boy he is today. He has absolutely flourished - his confidence, social skills and personality have all blossomed and its been amazing to
watch him grow. The staff are wonderful, but I have to give a special mention to the team in 2-3's room. They have been absolutely fantastic, providing such a warm, caring and engaging environment. Their dedication and support have made such a difference in his development. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for nurturing and stimulating place for their child. It has been a second home for my son, and we couldn't be happier with the experience.
14 April 2025
Great experience at Busy Bees, my child has been there since he was a few weeks old and has really come along whilst he was been at nursery. Great staff, would recommend the nursery.
28 March 2025
We are really happy with our choice to enrol our sons at Busy Bees Leicester Meridian. The communication has been really clear and helpful throughout the enrollment process, which has made us feel reassured. Our boys are very different to each other, one confident and active, the other a typical
velcro baby. The nursery arranged some settling in sessions, which have helped us all to adapt to what will be a new normal routine for us. The dropping off and picking up couldn't have been smoother, and hearing our eldest son tell us all about what he did was so nice to hear. Our hearts melted when he came out with the biggest smile on his face saying that he had been 'playing with friends'. Our youngest fast asleep soundly on collection too. We definitely feel reasurred after such a short time that the boys will be happy here and that we made the right decision for us all.

I was a bit of a nervous parent when it came to sending my child to nursery.
The staff at Busy Bees Leicester Meridian have always put my thoughts at ease.
I knew that the minute my child crosses the threshold she is cared for, respected and loved by staff.
As someone with no family local it's a
relief to have found a nursery that gives a family feeling.
13 March 2025
Our son has recently left Busy Bees due to moving house. It was obvious how much he thrived from attending the setting and we were sad to be moving him.
The layout of the nursery itself is great, with lots of room inside and outside for the children to play. We liked how the nursery was all on one
level and flowed from one room to another.
We appreciated the updates on meals, nappy changes and activities/photos etc throughout the day via the app.
The menu is excellent and most importantly all the staff are incredibly caring.
07 February 2025
After doing a lot of research, I decided to enrol my child at Busy Bees Meridian. I needed peace of mind while at work, knowing my child was in safe hands.
The staff are incredibly helpful, kind and always greet you with a smile. They ensured my child settled in well and, at the end of each day,
kept me informed about his activities. The nursery is spotless and very well-maintained.
I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the manager and all the staff for their hard work and dedication.
07 February 2025
From when I first came to look around the staff were friendly, informative and reassuring which made me feel at ease. I was very impressed with the layout of the nursery and how clean it was. When my son started going he was always happy and was attended to with the utmost care and attention. This
is all I could ask for. He was always encouraged to take part in all kinds of activities and he especially loved the food, which there was always a variety and very healthy. During the months my son attended I never had one issue or complaint. If I hadn't moved house I would not have stopped going. I was really sad to take him out as the staff were amazing and did a great job there.

I am very happy with my decision to choose this nursery for my son. He started at 12 months old and is now in the 2-3s group. The staff are fantastic; their passion for their job and workplace is evident. My ultimate priority was to find a nursery where the staff demonstrate compassion, care and
friendliness. I appreciate being able to talk to them anytime with any questions about my son's day or development. My son has grown leaps and bounds in confidence, and I can see the bond he has developed with many of the staff members. Additionally, my other priorities were finding a nursery with plenty of outdoor space where my son could spend time outside in the fresh air. Cleanliness and ample space to play and learn were also high on my list, and this nursery meets all these criteria.
