The staff are what makes this nursery so special, they are so warming and supportive and my son loves being there.
We are always greeted with a smile and everyone knows his name which makes such a difference.
I cannot fault the nursery in anyway. Overall a very happy, friendly, safe place and I always
feel comfortable leaving my little boy in their hands.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Busy Bees Great Notley is a brilliant place to have your child learn and develop in their early years. The fact that my daughter tells me each day how much fun she has at the nursery and learns new things is adamant about how it is operated from the managers to the nursery nurses. These achievements
have resulted from the centre receiving Outstanding's from their OFSTED inspections. The staff at the nursery are amazing and always look out for my daughter's best interests by having her involved and interacting with all activities and in the process making new friends within the class. Also, the meals my daughter gets are second to none to which I receive feedback from the staff that she eats and enjoys. Overall I would highly recommend to any parent that are looking to choose an early learning centre for their child's development to strongly consider Busy Bees Great Notley.

Busy Bees Great Notley is amazing!
We've been lucky that both our children have had the opportunity to go there.
Our youngest is due to start in the foundation class and the handover between the rooms has been brilliant. Demonstrating they know our child so well. Plus considering how changes can
affect children and they adapt things accordingly to support that transition.
All staff have a great knowledge of the early years curriculum and create great engaging play and learning opportunities.
All staff are so caring and we can't thank them enough for all they do.
I would highly recommend the setting and all it offers.

I really wanted for my son to attend this nursery because I heard it's the best nursery in Harlow and I do not regret that I picked it. In a few months, my son has learned English and has changed completely in a good way. I don't have words to thank all the staff for their attention towards my son.
Everyone is very lovely and I definitely recommend this amazing nursery.

Busy Bees Harlow have been great in helping my daughter settle into nursery coming from a childminder. Comforting her and me and ensuring that it is a seamless transition. In the 3 weeks, I can see a massive improvement in her confidence, independence, and intelligence.

Cannot speak highly enough of the nursery. We were apprehensive, as we'd never left our daughter with anyone else before. But they were so reassuring and their provision and care is absolutely outstanding! The staff are so lovely and you can see how much they care. Highly, highly recommended!

Staff are always friendly and supportive. They are knowledgeable and caring. My child runs into the nursery every day showing he is happy to be there and enjoys his time. The app is great and updates are regular and informative. Photos posted to the app show my child is engaging and socialising well.
The food is well prepared and nutritious. Although expensive, you get what you pay for!
The only bad part is that the outside space could be bigger or have different areas to play in as it only has a small fake grass area.

Both my daughters have attended Busy Bees. We were very picky when choosing a nursery and they ticked all the boxes. The key workers are all amazing and my daughters love them. We have never had any concerns and have seen such growth in their development. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for
a place to send their little ones.

The only nursery I looked at for my daughter, I knew from the outset she would be in safe hands. She will leave for school this year having attended since being 10 months old. An amazing nursery, with genuine caring and friendly staff and management. Lots of opportunities to develop skills and learn
about various topics. My daughter loves the outside space and the children are encouraged to play together and look after one another. Communication is good and parents evenings are informative. There's a parent partnership group so parents can get involved and shape and help the nursery. I couldn't think of a better place. Well done to this outstanding nursery!

We have been absolutely blown away by the staff at Great Notley Busy Bees. From the cheery greets in the morning when dropping our daughter off, to the detailed and personalised handovers at the end of the day, the entire team goes out of their way to make you and your child feel supported throughout
their journey. I was personally so apprehensive about my daughter starting nursery at 6 months, but any anxious feelings were almost instantly banished after her first session. Her development has been phenomenal since joining and we fear now she absolutely loves being at nursery more than at home! A huge thank you to everyone in the team for your amazing welcome and continued support, we're just so happy we found you!

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Overall, an amazing nursery. My son has been very happy and he is always developing. We see him come home with new skills all the time! They have a great structure for the babies in the class (my son is 13 months at time of writing), allowing nap time as required and lots of activities. The staff are
generally very helpful and engaging.
Minor criticisms. They are not punctual in the morning, 7:30 is really 7:35 am and that is frustrating. Equally, it can take 10-minutes-plus at pick-up. Also, as with all nurseries, there are a lot of illnesses and especially at the beginning, he got sent home for what felt like everything. We spent more time at home than at nursery, this has improved as they have got to know my son. Finally, you get great daily updates, but I wish we got more observations (development reports). However, if you want to know anything they are always happy to answer questions!

Our son and daughter both attend Busy Bees Chelmsford and love every day there. The staff are wonderful and attentive and it's lovely to see on the app pictures of what they've been up to. They particularly enjoy playing in the outdoor area which was one of the main reasons we chose this nursery. It
also helps we walk past and wave at the nearby ducks to and from nursery every day. Thoroughly recommended!
