Overall Experience

My daughter started with Busy Bees in October 2024 when she had just turned 1. I was really nervous about my daughter starting nursery, being a first-time mum. I discussed all of my concerns with the manager before my daughter started and she listened to everything I told her and I felt really reassured.

Her transition into a nursery setting has been so much better than I ever expected it would be. I get updates on the app throughout the day, including nappy changes, when and how much she's eaten, sleep and most importantly, photos, which really makes me feel part of my daughter's nursery journey. She does all sorts of things during the day I wouldn't necessarily think of doing with her at home and her development has come on in leaps and bounds as a result. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience

I would recommend Busy Bees in Brough to any parent who is looking for a nursery - my little girl has been there since we moved to the area last year. They put such attention, care and detail into her settling in period. During her time in the baby room she developed a very strong bond with her key

worker, as a mum it is so important to feel your child has someone they can rely on whilst your not there and the key worker was that for us. She absolutely attended to all of my girls individual needs and was so involved in her learning and development. We have now moved into toddlers and the experience has been great, a little unsure at first but all the staff (including my little girls favourite - the chef!) made sure she felt safe and secure. The little celebration days and events add to an already great calendar. The space is clean, filled with lots of different toys/sensory areas for all kids. The outdoor area is also great for them to get out for fresh air. 5 out of 5!

Overall Experience

We have two children at the nursery, the eldest being nearly 4 and the youngest 14 months. Separating from your children when you go to work is incredibly tough but the staff have made the process so much easier and have been so understanding with it. The staff have been amazing with both the children,

showing warmth to them all the time. They go out of their way to ensure the children have a great time and it's so reassuring to know they're enjoying themselves when you're away from them. I would really recommend this setting.

Overall Experience

I would highly recommend Busy Bees in Brough to any parent looking for a nursery for their child. The whole team in Brough are welcoming and friendly. I have two children, one who attended and now is at school and one child currently attending the nursery. The care and passion that the staff have are

second to none. The management team are great and will always go that extra mile to help. They take time to listen and help, whatever the request may be. The knowledge that the practitioners have and the time they take to get to know not only the child but the family as well is great. They know the children very well and can plan and extend their activities to take their learning to the next level. Busy Bees is, overall, a fantastic nursery and I would highly recommend.

Overall Experience

I have two children at the nursery - one who has been there for fifteen months and another for five months. They've settled and bonded very well with the room staff and I can trust them with my requests regarding their sleeping schedule or any changes in routine. They update us daily with activities,

food and sleep on the app and keep us informed via phone if they're sick or an incident has happened so I am updated when needed. Overall, it's a lovely nursery and the staff are all friendly and welcoming. I'd recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience

Our son has attended since 10 months old and is now almost 3. The staff have been incredible throughout the whole period. There were a few periods where staffing was inconsistent and we really noticed how unsettled he was becoming. We were considering changing settings but then things really improved

and a handful of staff in particular really put extra effort in to make drops off easier and transitions to the school room easier for him. Our eldest son (now 10) attended here too and he didn't look back once on his first day at primary so I know he was well prepared and I am confident our youngest will be too. It feels like staff are taking on board concerns and striving to constantly improve which is reassuring. Thank you for all your hard work we really appreciate everything you have done and it will be a sad day when our time is up!

Reply from Steph Woolston-Gill, Centre Director at Busy Bees Brough

Thank you for your kind words. We are really glad that you appreciate the hard work our team put into their roles.

Overall Experience

My overall experience of Busy Bees Brough is excellent. My baby is always well cared for and is so happy when she's there. I love receiving photos of her day, to see what she's been getting up to. I love to see the activities set up too which is shown through the app as well as the breakdown of her

day. The handover from her key people is very thorough and is often accompanied with artwork that my little girl has made to take home. Since starting at Busy Bees Brough, I've felt at ease with the love and professional but friendly atmosphere, after a previous bad experience with a nursery, this time round has been totally different and I would highly recommend to anyone! I can't thank Busy Bees Brough enough.

Overall Experience

Our son has been at Busy Bees now for nearly 8 months and we cannot fault the nursery at all. Since attending, his development has just come on leaps and bounds and the staff are always finding new activities and games to promote learning and development. The staff in Bombos room are second to none.

As first-time parents, they have given us so much support and advice, and thoroughly update us every day at pick up on what our son has been up to. The food menu is impressive - sometimes the dishes are a bit ambitious for toddlers but we really appreciate the diverse foods offered and know that he has been fed well throughout the day!
We have always been happy with Busy Bees but since the new manager started it has become even better. Communication with parents is really good and she is really involved with all the staff and children.

Overall Experience

We were on the verge of leaving Busy Bees under the last management because it was honestly terrible and nothing was getting done for my child.
But after the new manager started, things completely turned around very fast. What an incredible addition to the Busy Bees family! She has made such a difference

in our lives that I can't even explain. Suddenly my boy has all of the support he needs and is thriving, he is a different child from the one that he was before she started. She gets stuff done and she is also very approachable and friendly, unlike the last manager. I honestly can't say enough good things about this place now and it is all thanks to the new management. She really did make an unspeakable difference to us and our little boy in an extremely stressful and hard time. We can't thank her enough for that and we are very thankful to have her. The staff's attitude has completely changed and the atmosphere is totally different. They are just amazing!

Overall Experience

My daughter has always been extremely comfortable here since she started. All the staff are lovely. Receiving updates on the app is perfect as I love to see how her day is going and on occasion receive pictures too. The children get involved in lots of creativity like painting.
Now the weather's getting

warmer the children are spending lots more time outside, which is lovely to see them out and playing too.
Highly recommend this nursery due to the level of care from the nursery staff.

Overall Experience

My son has been coming to Busy Bees since he was around 4 months old. Initially, as a first-time parent, I was feeling very nervous and unsure. However, I cannot express how fantastic Busy Bees staff have been. Staff are friendly, caring and willing to help as much as possible, even at short notice.

Staff will go above and beyond. I could not recommend the nursery more. Busy Bees have made me feel at such ease and it is a pleasure to send my little boy here. I could say so much more, but I am limited. I also want to say thank you. My son loves coming here.

My son really loves his time at nursery and it gives me peace of mind to know that he is not only happy and safe, but having fun and learning lots. He has been in the baby room, the toddler room and is starting to move up to the preschool, and each time they have worked on making the transition smooth

for him!
Thank you, Busy Bees, Beverley.

Our daughter is so happy at Busy Bees. They go above and beyond for her and we couldn't be happier for her little brother to begin. All staff are approachable and caring and will do their very best to make sure our needs are met. Our daughter has come on leaps and bounds, academically and in confidence

too.

Could not ask for more caring staff for my son. He loves going to nursery and enjoys it every time he is there. The difference we have seen in his confidence in activities and with people has been incredible and I put this to the staff at Busy Bees, Beverley. The activities that he does while at nursery

are always varied and he is always very happy when we get sent pictures.
Really happy we chose Busy Bees for our little boy!

Overall Experience

Our experience of the nursery has been a brilliant one so far. Although in our first 6 months, we feel like we have known the staff forever. Everyone is very friendly and approachable and our child has learned so much so quickly since starting.
The only slight negative is a common one for most people

I speak to no matter where they go to nursery, the price. It is annoying that it cannot be pre-arranged to take our child out of nursery for a day or any period of time without still having to pay the cost of them being there. I would prefer it if there was, within a reasonable notice period, a way to allow for parents to take their child out of nursery and have that cost reduced accordingly for that month. E.g. both parents have a day off work next month and want to plan a family day out.
That would be my only suggestion for improvement so far and I appreciate the logistics of this make it very difficult to accommodate!

We could not fault Busy Bees Beverley. From my little boy's first session we felt confident and at ease leaving him in their care. All staff are friendly, approachable and professional. My little boy is always excited on our journey to nursery, and is full of smiles at pick up, so he clearly enjoys

attending. The food served is excellent, offering a good variety and is well balanced. The team who work with my little boy have formed strong relationships with him and have a very caring nature. Staff-parent communication is great. We love getting our little updates via parent zone and staff are always happy to answer any questions in person and helpful over the phone. Although our little boy has only been attending for a couple of months, we can already see the progress he has made. He is one happy little boy and that is thanks to all the hard work of the staff at Busy Bees.
