My Granddaughter goes to nursery every day and she feels safe and well looked after. She enjoys the interaction with all staff members and is now making friends fast. She is well ahead of other children of her age due to the great commitment of all staff making play a game and great learning curve.
The food that is served is varied and it has encouraged her to eat a varied diet.
The children are encouraged to be independent and try different activities.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My son had never been away from me before he started nursery. I was really anxious. I chose Busy Bees for its proximity to town, and its Ofsted report. At the settling in sessions I was impressed by how smoothly the staff worked together, how professional they were. The children were so calm, just bumbling
around outside (it was a hot summer day, perfect for bumbling).There was no running, crying, shouting, hitting or fighting. My only worry was I thought the staff weren't very cuddly. A week later, however, I realised they were just taking their measure of him, and now he goes to them happily and I can see how they are quietly affectionate and reassuring.
My son didn't speak before nursery, within a month he started singing and saying his first words, naming body parts etc. His nappy area is always clean-smelling and he never has nappy rash. He walks into the room like he owns it and has no problems separating from me. The management are clear on their expectations and kind and polite.
