Busy Bees West Byfleet is a local nursery within the village of West Byfleet near Woking within the beautifully landscaped surroundings of West Hall.

This local West Byfleet Nursery is in the tranquillity of the greenbelt fields of Surrey, the new state of the art day nursery offers a safe and stimulating environment where children can learn and grow.

Ofsted state that:

"The quality of teaching is consistently good."
"The effective leadership and management significantly enhances children's care, welfare and learning."
"Babies and children...know they are special through the warm and caring response they receive from their key persons."

The picturesque scenery provides the children of the nursery with the opportunities of seeing the change of seasons close to hand and experience the significant benefits that come from playing and learning in the countryside.

The nursery has improved since new management however it still feels a bit disorganised. There was a high turnover of staff but has been a recent improvement.

Excellent. My daughter loves her time here and can't wait to come in. She learns a great deal and I think her development is on track. I would like more communication and regular updates.

I have only positive things to say about Busy Bees. Our childminder let us down and Busy Bees had us in for settling in sessions within two weeks. We were shown around and instantly felt at ease and I knew this was the right place for us. The staff look after our little one and they were absolute superstars.
We genuinely feel like we hit the jackpot finding this gem.

My experience with the staff and how they have been interacting with the kids has been very encouraging over the past few months. This builds confidence and allows parents to have the peace of mind that there is indeed a developmental focus on the entirety of the children and nobody is left behind.
Hoping to see more activities that encourage interactions and collaborations between peers to build confidence amongst the children.

My daughter loves coming to Busy Bees, she gets excited knowing she will be seeing her friends. I have found that she doesn't stop talking and her speech after nursery is better than when she has spent the week with me.

The staff at Busy Bees at West Byfleet have been very supportive in nurturing both of my children, since we've been attending (June 2017). My now four-year-old has moved through the toddlers and preschool rooms and bonded well with the staff. There are always many and varied activities for the children,
play inside and outside, varied menus and healthy snacks. My youngest has settled in well and would recommend the nursery to other prospective parents.

Busy Bees at West Byfleet has a warm and very caring team. My daughter has attended BB since she was ten months old and loves it. She has thrived at every stage of development and is now heading into the preschool room. She loves coming to the nursery and tells me all about her day, which just tells
me she always has a great time.

All the teachers are very welcoming and friendly. Our daughter loves coming to the nursery and has grown so much since first starting when she was just 1 year old. It is so lovely to see photos of her participating in activities.
Everyone is always on hand to help with any queries we have.
Thank you.

My son loves coming to nursery because he is so well looked after. He is stimulated and well developed in the nursery setting and always enjoys learning through play. The staff look after him with genuine care and really have taken the time to know him and how to look after him in the best possible
way. He really does receive excellent care.
