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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

We cannot recommend Busy Bees Meridian Nursery more, we are so happy that we chose to send our daughter there. She's been attending 2 days a week since she was 10 months old, she's just turned 2 and has come on in leaps and bounds with her confidence, her language and social interaction. She's encouraged to try a range of different food at mealtimes (which she doesn't do well at home!) and take part in a huge range of activities every day, keeping her stimulated and engaged. We've valued her having both female and male key worker role models, she's formed strong bonds with many of the staff there as they are all lovely and very welcoming. We are so pleased she's so happy there and loves attending twice a week!

Nice environment with clear learning goals for my daughter. My daughter is going through investigations at the moment for cerebral palsy. The team has been very supportive including switching days she can go in due to appointments and also looking at putting an ISP for her once we have the results. My daughter loves the nursery and dances every day she is in.

We started our little one in April 2023 and have found her to make some really strong bonds, especially at the beginning when she found the transition from weekend to Monday particularly difficult. She has a great rapport with all the adults and has grown into a confident little human. The staff have always been friendly, approachable and adaptable; this has always been reassuring to us as parents; we are forever grateful for all their hard work. Thank you Busy Bees for a really positive and lasting experience.

Our experience at Busy Bees, Meridian, has been extremely positive. Our son has been with the nursery from 9 months to now (having just graduated before school), at every stage the experience has been tailored to his needs and we have seen him grow in confidence as a result. The communication from staff throughout has been proactive and informative, overall as above a really positive experience and we would recommend attending.

My daughter loves this nursery, when she started she was 2 years old and we saw straight away a big development in the first couple of weeks. I can see a big bond that she has with the staff, the food is really good for her too. That's a place that I know that I can go to work and I don't need to worry about it because she's being taken care of really well.

Children are very happy to go. Good range of activities, including learning modules. Staff are engaging and supportive of the children in their care. Good adherence to health and safety standards. Feedback verbally and through the app on children’s day and progress.
