Great staff, very organised, my daughter loves all the activities and the food! She settled in very quickly and made a lot of friends. They send photos of your child throughout the day so you know what activities they've been doing which is always lovely.

We picked Busy Bees having visited all the local nursery settings and can honestly say, we've never questioned our choice. Our eldest has thrived from joining full-time at age 1 and our youngest will join next year. As the parent of a child with a severe allergy, the level of support, care and attention that the staff provide goes over and above what I ever expected. Practically: parking is great when ferrying small children, the premises are well laid out - especially preschool with the garden and dining room. Educationally and pastorally: activities are creative and varied and we are kept well updated on development. My only complaint is that our daughter has bonded too well with the nursery team, often preferring them to us and refuses to come home!

My daughter has been coming to Busy Bees since she was 9 months old. For any first-time mum, it's always a worry if they don't like nursery but my daughter loves going here. She loves all the staff and the children she has been with. She has really come on being at Busy Bees and she will be very sad to leave when the time comes.

Busy Bees have been a huge part of our lives for six years from my eldest child going there to my youngest leaving in August to go to school. I wouldn't recommend anywhere else. Every room has catered to my children's needs and have understood both my children more than I would have ever expected. My eldest still remembers all the staff and still talks about preschool now. I am so happy with my decision to send my boys here and they are a nursery I will never forget.

Busy Bees has been amazing for my daughter, who started in the teenies room and is now in toddlers. She absolutely loves going. The staff couldn't be better, they are all so friendly and good with the kids. She is constantly doing fun activities, she eats all of the food they give her, which is varied and nutritious, and overall, it's just a great nursery.

We sent our twins to Busy Bees preschool to get them ready for school, and it was the best decision we have ever made. The preschool team are absolutely incredible - always greeting the day with a smile and providing the children with fantastic activities throughout the course of their journey. Our twins have loved their time at Busy Bees, where they have felt safe and cared for. They have enjoyed the food and have made friends who they will be going to reception with. Cannot fault Busy Bees. I will miss knowing that my children are there! Thank you so much for everything Busy Bees! We will never forget you.

Busy Bees East Keswick is an excellent nursery, the environment, the activities and the staff are wonderful. It's always felt safe and secure and clearly, the interests of the children are paramount. Our daughter has loved and thrived during her time here! Would strongly recommend this nursery to any parent.

I got recommended this nursery and came for a visit and loved the nursery and my daughter started in May. The staff are lovely in the toddler room and my daughter seems really happy there and growing confidence so much. I would highly recommend Busy Bees.

Busy Bees East Keswick has been such a fantastic experience for our family. The entire team has a relationship with the pupils and parents and engage in such a wonderful way with everyone. The excitement and delight they bring to the special activities make for very memorable learning experiences. The kids have been exposed to all sorts of relevant current affairs which are tailored to be age appropriate. An absolute treasure of a place for our little boy.

We have two children at Busy Bees and have been so happy with the nurturing care and stimulation provided by the wonderful staff here. My eldest is about to start primary school and the preschool team has done an excellent job in making sure that she is ready for the transition. The baby and toddler room have been amazing with my youngest who was initially really reluctant to be separated from me. She has formed a great bond with her key worker and always has a wonderful day. I highly recommend this nursery setting.

Have recommended this nursery to several other mums. My child has always been so happy and I have another child joining in a couple of months. The staff are excellent and I feel like they really care about all of the children. I've also had really good dealings with the management who have always been really helpful and friendly.
19 July 2024
Really happy with the whole team. They have settled my child in so well and all taken brilliant care of him. Nothing is too much to ask. My child has had a transition period with a new baby sibling and they have really eased that transition for him.
07 September 2023
We have finally come to the end of our time at Busy Bees after six very happy years. Both my girls have had a fantastic time, and I have absolutely no doubt it has helped enormously with their development. Friendly, competent staff who genuinely care about the children they look after. From the baby room to pre-school and including the legendary chef! I honestly don’t think we could have asked for more. The whole team over the years have been a huge support to our family, and we are sad to be saying goodbye, but our little girl is now prepared, confident and ready for school.

Excellent, ther carers are always polite, friendly and helpful. Great feedback on day activities, meals and behaviour of my child. My child has bonded very well with two members of staff.

My son has been at Busy Bees from 1 year to 4 years. He's really thrived there, and he's really enjoyed the experience. I'm so happy with the choice we made to send him there. It feels like a very inclusive place, and I love how much my son has learnt during his time there.
17 June 2023
My son has attended Busy Bees since he was 11 months old and during his time he has encountered major illness and obviously the covid pandemic and a mild stammer, he has been thoroughly supported throughout. The staff are attentive and extremely caring, planning activities around what the children show interest in. The pre-school staff go over and above and have made sure he is 100% ready to start school. The food is varied, nutritious and the chef also has a great relationship with the children.

Overall, a great nursery and the staff are brilliant throughout each room. Always a great handover at pickups, and my little boy's speech is really improving with the help of the staff.

We’ve sent both our children to Busy Bees, East Keswick, from tinies through to preschool. Of all the decisions we’ve made as parents, this was a big one and it turned out to be one of the few that we’ve never second-guessed. The processes are watertight, the food is varied and healthy, the activities really support development and create so much fun for children, but it’s the team that we’re most impressed by. Everyone is warm and friendly and the information flow is really great. The children love them and we trust them completely. We could list so many standout individuals but we can’t not mention the senior early years educator, in particular. Her knowledge and passion is above and beyond. When our Busy Bees journey comes to an end, we’re going to be so sad! Thank you to everyone involved!

Busy Bees East Keswick is an outstanding nursery. I was worried about my son starting as he was the youngest there but the staff have made his first few months so exciting and enjoyable. He loves going and is clearly very happy and comfortable with all the staff. Everyone is very professional and patient (I don't know how they do it) and the food is always enjoyed by my son. He's really developing well and I have absolutely no concerns about the care he receives. Highly recommended.

Both of my boys have had a very happy and nurturing experience at Kindercare. The facilities are excellent - outdoors there is a separate play space for all age groups and indoors every group has separate eating areas and play spaces. The boys are always happy and excited to attend and have some great relationships with the staff who are helpful and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kindercare to other parents.
