My wee one has been at Busy Bees Ayr for over a year. She joined at 8 months old and I was terrified to leave her. Even walking in the building I felt at ease, everyone was really welcoming and they could tell how nervous I was. They understood my reservations and were able to accommodate myself as
well as my baby. She took to all the staff straight away, so did I.
Her journey couldn't be better, she has excelled thanks to the experience of the staff. Not only are they having fun but they're learning. They keep you updated on all aspects of care and learning.
Any issues you have, e.g- child unwell/acting up at home, they listen and help where they can.
I recommend Busy Bees to anyone, especially those who are as anxious as I was.
My wee girl runs in the doors and doesn't look back. Just shows how comfortable and excited she is to be there.
I can't thank them enough.

My son and daughter have both attended Busy Bees Nursery in Ayr (son is now in school). The staff are very friendly and caring and it is very clear that they enjoy their work and genuinely care about the children. I know that many of the staff have worked at the nursery/Busy Bees for 10+ years and
newer staff members have quickly built bonds with my daughter and she is very settled with them. The nursery environment is always spotlessly clean and is spacious with lots of different play areas including book corner and outdoor private gardens. Activities are well planned and educational with lots of outdoor time when possible. The children are provided with breakfast, lunch and afternoon snack and this is prepared by the nursery cook. My daughter is very settled here and has made lots of friends and has really learned so much and this has well prepared her for starting school this year. I would highly recommend Busy Bees Ayr!

Busy Bees Ayr is an amazing nursery and has allowed my little girl to absolutely flourish since attending.
Keep doing what you do! My little one absolutely loves attending which is testament to how great a job the staff are doing. All employees working there are extremely knowledgeable and
friendly and always on hand to help. It's a tight knit team who always have a smile on their face.
Thank you so much!

Busy Bees Nursery has been a wonderful experience for our family. From the moment we arrived, it was clear the staff truly cared about each child. They go above and beyond to create a nurturing environment, adapting to each child's unique needs. I especially appreciate the flexibility they offer,
with various session options to suit our schedule. This has been invaluable as our plans change. When my child had surgery, the staff went the extra mile, sending thoughtful gifts and checking in to offer support. The facilities are spacious, clean and designed for both learning and play, creating a safe, joyful atmosphere. Busy Bees isn't just a nursery-it's a community where children are treated with love and respect. I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a place where their child will be cared for and cherished.

My daughter recently started her nursery experience. The staff are always easy going and friendly with nothing ever a bother. It's been a huge transition for my little girl moving and leaving her childminder, but she has settled well. The team have fully taken her under their wing and I am happy to
report she is thoroughly enjoying her time at Busy Bees Ayr. Can't recommend them enough.

Busy Bees Ayr has been amazing for my daughter who started when she was 11 months old. The staff are amazing with her and she is always happy to see them in the morning. They do lots of different playtime activities and she loves painting and splashing in the water pit. There is always a variety of
good meals provided. I love that I get to see photos of her playing on the app and see when she has had nappy changes, naps and what she has had to eat throughout the morning.

Busy Bees Ayr have provided childcare for my 2 children over the past 4 years. I couldn’t have hoped for a better place. Knowing my children have been so happy and well cared for in nursery has eased the guilt of being a working parent and they have had experiences and formed relationships that they
wouldn’t have had at home. Busy Bees has prepared them both so well for the next stage of their lives and I am so grateful to all the lovely staff.

What a fabulous nursery - our son attended Busy Bees Ayr for over a year and the care and attention that was given by the staff was exceptional. Our child had so much fun learning a variety of topics and loved all the food cooked by the Chef. He has gained so much confidence in his social skills and
speech and kept us informed at all times. We will miss you all terribly and thank you again for the wonderful experience.

We have used Busy Bees for both of our children for the last 6 years. We have found the nursery to be clean, bright and airy. The children are kept amused and challenged to develop daily without them realising. Outside space was really important to us and Busy Bees allows access to the garden easily
unlike many other nurseries. We have been really impressed with the nursery as a whole and believe they have been integral to the development of our children. It takes a village to raise a child, and Busy Bees has been ours.

So glad we have our daughter at Busy Bees, Ayr. The staff are fantastic with her. Always welcoming and our daughter loves going to nursery. The app is great to see our daughter's updates during the day for mealtimes and any pictures of what they are doing. We had the option of having funded hours at
a council nursery due to her turning 3 years old but we have decided that Busy Bees have been so good that our daughter will remain there. Thank you everyone at Busy Bees.

Our twin boys were part of the nursery for nearly four years. In that time we saw nothing but excellent work from all members of staff. The boys had so much fun and they progressed enormously in terms of interacting with peers and staff and learning a variety of topics. We saw them grow as young
boys and the nursery played a huge part in that.

I cannot rate this nursery highly enough! Both my children (5 and 3) adored their time here. The staff are wonderful - they know the children so well, are so warm and caring and absolutely nothing is a problem. My youngest has additional health needs and the staff went over and beyond to see to his
every need. The food is great with a wonderful variety. Handover is excellent, lots of information given (now via the app) and again, any additional questions answered. Events such as graduation, Christmas etc have so much effort put in. My little girl still sleeps with her Busy Bees teddy as she misses the nursery so much! The manager is amazing. So approachable and nothing is a problem. Cannot thank the staff enough and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this wonderful nursery to anyone.

Can't praise the team at Busy Bees enough. They maintained a safe and happy environment for my twins throughout the pandemic. My twins started at Busy Bees when they were babies and started primary 1 last week, confident, happy kids.

Thank you so very much to all the wonderful team at Busy Bees Ayr for providing such excellent care for our two children, both of whom have been in the nursery since they were babies. They have had nothing but the best throughout. Every single member of staff knows the individual children so well
and they go out of their way to help and support. The chef in the kitchen provides delicious nutritious meals, always catering for my daughter's food intolerances. My son has now moved on to primary school having had the best nursery education we could have asked for.
05 September 2022
Absolutely amazing. He came on so much with you and sorry he has to leave. The staff are a credit to the company. The patience and love make a big difference and keep doing what you are doing. We will miss you all.

A wonderful nursery with wonderful teachers! Both our children have been so well cared for and it has been incredible to see how sociable, talkative, confident and smart they became/are becoming in your care! We have always felt involved and kept informed as parents. Thank you for all that you do!

We love Busy Bees! My daughter has been attending this nursery since August 2020. The care that she has experienced here is excellent. All the staff are very friendly, caring, nurturing and would do anything to help and support you. I know that when I leave her at this nursery, she is safe and being
well looked after. She has come on leaps and bounds since starting Busy Bees and I cannot thank the staff enough. She is learning so many new skills and being exposed to lots of different opportunities here and due to this, she is thriving. The food at the nursery is excellent and she enjoys all her meals. I would highly recommend Busy Bees, Ayr to anyone.

I enrolled my daughter in this nursery in August 2020 and she is still there to this day. At first, we did not know there was any issues but it soon became clear my daughter was struggling. This nursery was an amazing help in securing a diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder. She gets all the help
she needs here and likes attending, which is a small victory in itself. The staff provide an excellent service and are very approachable even in trying situations. As there is no nursery facilities for Autistic children, I feel comforted by the fact that the staff have went out their way to accommodate my daughter and myself. Cannot recommend enough. Kind regards.
