Our child is so happy at Busy Bees Kettering Central and has developed very well since they joined, especially with their socialisation. The team (especially those who look after our child in the baby room) are all absolutely wonderful - so caring, friendly and supportive. We trust them implicitly
and are very grateful for all they do!

My child has really benefitted from their time at nursery, both developmentally and socially. The staff support the children well in a calm, organised and caring environment, and the nursery is in a lovely setting with lots of space for the children to play. My child has been happy to attend and has
enjoyed building friendships along the way, some of which will likely continue into primary school and beyond. I would recommend this branch of Busy Bees to others.

I'm truly very happy with the preschool my son attends. From the very first day, the entire staff has been incredibly kind, welcoming, and supportive. It's a wonderful feeling to know that my child is spending his day in such a positive and nurturing environment. The teachers are not only
professional and well-prepared, but they also show genuine care and affection for the children. They always greet us with a smile and take the time to share updates, answer questions, and make sure we feel involved in our son's learning journey.
What I appreciate most is how much attention they pay to each child's individual needs. My son has grown so much, both socially and emotionally, since starting there. He comes home happy, full of stories, and excited . It's clear that he feels safe and loved, which means everything to me as a parent.

Busy Bees had been of great help to us.
Especially that's we have no extended family or external support in the UK.
Busy Bees had been really helpful in her development.
Our special thanks to all staffs with special reference to her link person.

The nursery provides good care for children. There is a variety of activities and learning opportunities provided, and these have only improved over the years that my child has been at the nursery. The food is varied and I believe has helped my child with trying new tastes. The nursery has been
flexible with allowing extra days when required.

Overall My child is happy at nursery which is great. We get time on drop off to have a conversation with a staff member for a handover which is really helpful. The app provided is helpful to keep updated throughout the day. My only real issue is that Parking is limited which i can deal with by
getting to drop off and collection. If the carpark is full or busy I'll park on a nearby street but other parents Don't and create spaces or block other cars in. If the parking could be managed so that if parking is full parents don't block cars in. But overall the childcare side of things regarding my child very happy

We've had a fantastic experience at Busy Bees so far. Our daughter has a lot of big feelings and struggles to regulate herself at times which is something her previous childcare provider (a childminder) wasn't particularly good at handling and she gave up on our daughter extremely quickly, hence us
moving her to Busy Bees.
Our daughter did not deal with the transition from childminder to nursery particularly well but the staff at Busy Bees made it their mission to figure out what worked for her and did lots of work with her on recognising and understanding her emotions, particularly the toddler room manager.
The staff at Busy Bees also recognised that our daughter would benefit from moving up to the preschool room sooner rather than later, so facilitated lots of settling in sessions there so she could establish relationships with staff there.
Other members of staff that have really taken the time to understand my daughter are one member of staff, in particular, in toddler room and a member of staff in preschool room.

Really fantastic nursery, friendly staff and lovely environment. Our little boy has flourished since attending Busy Bees Kettering Central. The staff are lovely, always give great handovers and really seem to get to know each child as an individual.
They have a lovely in house kitchen and our boy
absolutely faves about his food every day!
Any changes we have needed have been accommodated without issue by the nursery, and the office always has someone in it if you do have any questions,
I really wouldn't hesitate to recommend this setting to anyone, and hope to use them again in the future!

I recommend this nursery 100%. My son loves going there and talks to me about the activities and his friends there. I like the staff who are all friendly and approachable. I trust them with the most important thing in the world to me.

Since joining Busy Bees Kettering Central my sons development has come on so far, he’s a lot more sociable and is showing so many signs of learning new things and developing! The staff are so lovely and always welcoming, I feel so happy knowing he’s in safe hands whilst at nursery. Could not
recommend Busy Bees Kettering Central and their staff more!

There’s a couple of people who work there that my daughter instantly connected with. Her speech has come on so much, she talks so clearly and she’s learning her numbers shapes and colours so fast. She’s always so happy when she comes out and when she goes in.
27 April 2021
From the moment I walked into Busy Bees Kettering Central I knew it was the nursery for me. The staff felt like family. My daughter grows in her development each week that passes with flying colours and I have the fantastic teams to thank for that. I just wish I could send her Monday too Friday. I
don’t know what I’m going to do when she leaves for school in August.

All three of my children have attended this nursery, my youngest from fourteen weeks old. He is now nearly three and wants to go to nursery at the weekend too! The staff are so caring and make the feel children so relaxed and at home, as well as helping them thrive and meet their milestones. Highly
recommend this nursery.

The nursery is great ! All of the staff are very friendly and accepting. I have also noticed that my child has developed a lot since going to this nursery as the staff spend a lot of 1 to 1 with the children.

Our daughter started the nursery when she was one years old and is now two and a half. She has come on leaps and bounds since joining. The staff are all so lovely and we trust them completely. We have been so impressed with how the nursery has handled everything with Covid-19 and we’d have been lost
without them!

Our child has been at the nursery since around eight months old and is now two and a half. We are really happy with the experience we've had. The staff are extremely caring and we quickly felt very comfortable and confident leaving our child in their care, knowing he's safe and happy. We feel our
child's development is really well supported by the nursery and all reviews and observations seem spot on with what we see at home. The garden space is a particularly lovely aspect of the nursery.

My daughter loves the preschool here and has learnt so much since she started. It’s lovely seeing her make new friends and thrive. The staff here are truly amazing and I can’t recommend Busy Bees Kettering Central enough.

My two year old always comes out smiling and I am kept updated throughout the day with what he is doing including pictures, the staff have been great getting him settled into his new room and I am so happy he has a place there.

My daughter has come leaps and bounds and I couldn't be happier. She's learnt so much not just academically but socially too, knowing and reacting to different people and situations. She's an absolute gem and she couldn't be happier.

Excellent nursery. Our child is in the preschool group. He enjoy going to nursery every day.
Very nice teachers and very well organised. Lots of activities indoor and outdoor. Meals are fresh and enjoyed by our child. A lot of Covid-19 measures put in place for the children's safety.
