We've been really pleased with our experience at Busy Bees Harlesden. The team are warm, attentive and clearly care deeply about the children in their care. Under the Centre Director's leadership it's evident that children's wellbeing and development are at the heart of everything they do.
Both of
our boys have settled in brilliantly. They're excited to go in each day, come home full of stories, and have built lovely relationships with the staff and other children. It's clear they feel safe, supported and genuinely happy there.
We've also appreciated the structured approach to learning through play; there's a great balance between fun, creativity and development. As parents, it's such a weight off our minds knowing our children are in a secure, nurturing environment where they're encouraged to grow in confidence and curiosity.
We're grateful to the whole team for the care and energy they put in every day.

I can not recommend Busy Bees enough. They are excellent in every way from how they communicate with parents up to the way they are able to make an extremely fussy, Autistic little child who doesn't speak so excited to go to nursery, I have to get him out of his buggy ASAP as he is so happy to go
inside... Can a parent be more impressed than that? I think not. He has thrived at Busy Bees, they really tapped into his wants & needs & they made his discover his inner artist. Since they finally got him to engage in an activity that is self-led but no destructive he has been drawing so much it now equals his special interests in animals. Thank you ALL the lovely staff.

They took such a good care for my daughter. She became grown and extremely confident little person.
Both the management and the staff are always supportive and helpful. The nursery has an amazing outside area for kids to play! I cannot recommend them enough!

I really appreciate them.

My child has been attending Busy Bees Harlesden in the 2yr old and over group for the past year, and I couldn't be happier. The staff are highly knowledgeable and genuinely caring, which really shows in how they support the children. They do a wonderful job nurturing each child's growth and
development while encouraging their individual personalities to shine

My daughter and I hada fantastic experience with Busy Bees.
She spent 2 years there and both staff and management were amazing.

The staff in Busy Bees Harlesden are compassionate and caring. My children have good experiences and a positive impact on their early years. My children looked forward to going to nursery even on their days off.

Extremely happy with my decision to bring my daughter to this nursery. All the staff are supportive and genuinely care about my baby. They always give me good advice and tips on ways to improve my daughter's eating and learning habits. They always answer all of my enquiries, even out of hours - a
Godsend to me and my family. I always recommend it to friends and family. Definitely outstanding in every way.

I couldn't be happier with the nursery, the staff are exceptionally caring and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing environment. The facilities are clean and well-equipped. The curriculum is both fun and educational. My child always looks forward to going every day and has thrived since starting
here. Highly recommend.

From the beginning, me and my partner had good vibes about the nursery and we still have. It is a really nice place for our daughter and amazing staff to take good care of her. Thank you Busy Bees Harlesden staff.

My son loves Busy Bees at Harlesden, he’s settled in so well and runs in without even saying goodbye to us. He will regularly talk about staff members and classmates all weekend and tell us about his days with a smile from ear to ear! Management is always around to talk to and listen to any worries
or concerns I may have and never made me feel like an annoyance when I called ten times a day during his settling period. My son has learnt and developed so much in his first six months here, we are so happy to be involved with such a friendly, family-focused nursery and are excited to continue to see our son's progression through to preschool.

My daughter is always happy to go to nursery here. I love that they spend a lot of time outside - they have a big outdoor space and there is always access to arts and crafts and books. The theatre sessions are a favourite as well! The staff are friendly and give me lots of details on what they have
done each day. We are very happy to be part of the Busy Bees family.

The staff is fantastic! My children have enjoyed their time at Busy Bees and talk about it very fondly. I really enjoy when I can see the reports and pictures through the app to keep me updated on the type of activities my child is most engaged with.
18 September 2023
Our daughter attended Busy Bees for 4 years, until reception. She really enjoyed the time she spent there, particularly in pre-school. The environment is lovely, the space was recently renovated and the children can enjoy their outdoor playing in a large garden.
The manager and the nursery team are
always accessible and go the extra mile to help with the family's needs. Besides exploring learning, they help the children develop personal and social skills. During her time at nursery, our daughter was supported with kindness and respect, she trusted every member of staff and she created a strong bond with her classmates.
I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Our son has been attending the nursery for nearly 2 years and we are so pleased. The staff's effort to make children feel good but also teaching boundaries and good behaviours are outstanding. Management is very accommodating and understanding and helpful to parents. I feel the nursery and I have a
great partnership for our family.
21 April 2023
very pleased with my child's growth from the nursery and his enjoyment when going, friendly nursery and has good standards. The nursery environment is good and the outside space was important to me when my child started.
18 April 2023
I have picked up my nephew from Busy Bees a few times and staff are so warm and welcoming. The daily feedback is always detailed, from activities, what they ate and anything else that may have happened throughout the day. My nephew is always happy and excited to talk about his day and what he has
been up to. I would definitely recommend Busy Bees to family and friends.
12 April 2023
We are very happy with the nursery overall, they always do great activities with the children and my daughter has made a lot of progress in many areas of development. The staff are very friendly and caring, the nursery has very good facilities.
28 March 2023
The team are fantastic and our son loves it here. They really take time to learn about the children and care for them. They have great extra curricular activities like the drama/theatre club that my son adores.
28 March 2023
We would highly recommend this nursery. Our child started at only 10 months old, and was so well taken care of, and settled very quickly with such caring, supportive staff. They are like an extended family. The app is updated regularly with information about your child's day, including images which
is wonderful to see, especially to record development and learning. Our child is so happy to go to this nursery and we couldn't be more confident in our choice to send them here.
