My children, wife and I love the staff here, they are friendly and welcoming every day and form a real connection with the children, which is lovely to see. My eldest son has received one-on-one assistance with various members of the team in order to help develop his speech. I'm happy to say his speech has vastly improved as a result of the structured sessions provided to him. All in all, a great nursery with an excellent team of people.

Fantastic team and very attentive to our two children and always updating the parents on the progress made each day. Extra care and learning support have been great. Really rate Busy Bees highly. 5 stars.

My son has been going to Busy Bees in Sutton Scotney for the last four years. He has ASD but we didn't know that when he joined. This nursery has been utterly amazing and it is really hard to find the words to say how much I recommend them. Even though my child can be challenging sometimes, they've never flinched and worked with us every step of the way. Day-to-day, the children have a great time and both my children are always excited to go to nursery. The staff all communicate well with parents and they handle difficult situations (like Covid) very well. The care, love and support they've given, not only to my child but also to us, is truly incredible. They are like a second family to my son.

I've been so happy with Busy Bees Sutton Scotney Day Nursery, and my little boy loves it! The staff are wonderful, very friendly, caring and ready to listen. They provide great updates every day and make it a stress-free experience.

My son has been attending Busy Bees Sutton Scotney since June of this year and he has flourished in his development and has settled in so well. We looked at many nurseries for him and am very happy with the choice we made. The team are so friendly and use the online app to keep me updated with lovely photos of his day. Love this nursery!

Our daughter started in June 2022 at 16 months, progressing from upstairs to downstairs, and we have had no regrets or concerns at all since. Not being from the area, the reputation of the nursery was very high,h and this was what first attracted us. All of her team really are the gems of the nursery; they have always made us feel at ease leaving our daughter in their care. The communication is fantastic, and any concerns are always addressed very quickly. We’ve always had very good relationships with the team, and it has a real ‘family feel’, which is exactly what we were looking for. Everyone knows each child by name, even if they do not have daily contact with them, which is lovely. The food is of a great standard thanks to the staff, which is a very big positive. Our daughter’s development is hugely down to the nursery, and we are so grateful for this. And most importantly, she is so incredibly happy, every day she is there. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Choosing a nursery is such a big decision, but the nursery always had the right feel about it from our first visit. Our son has just finished his time at the nursery, having started school this year. From when he first started at 9 months old, until he left to go to school, he has had a wonderful time and loved going into nursery. The food has been a real highlight and everyone from management to new starters, have taken the time to get to know him and us as his parents. We have all felt so welcomed and seen our son is valued and thought of with genuine affection. The staff ensured he was absolutely ready for school and we have loved watching his journey and development through the things posted on the app journal. Our son made great memories and great friends at nursery and I am sure his younger brother will do likewise. Thanks for everything over the last four years.

Five star nursery - we are over the moon that we chose Egg Day Nursery Sutton Scotney for our daughter. All the staff here are just amazing, so friendly, attentive, professional and have welcomed her with open arms which has helped her settle in perfectly, every time we drop her off and collect her she is so happy! All of the activities the nursery does with the children are just fab and we love getting the Tapestry updates each week and seeing how much fun she's had. They also have a fantastic on-site chef and I'm always jealous of the menus! Cannot fault Egg Day Nursery - it's wonderful.

The staff at Egg Sutton Scotney really make this nursery the best. They adore the children and I leave my son there knowing he is looked after and cared for. They are hot on it with regular updates to keep you up to speed with developments of your child. In person, they are professional, kind and it makes it a pleasure to drop off and pick up! I can’t rate them highly enough.

I could not want any more from a nursery. The practitioners looking after the children have such high energy and enthusiasm. They are loving, caring and supportive of each individual child and also create an environment where manners and sharing are promoted and encouraged. The activities are endless, varied and very fun! They really make the most of the garden space, so while I’ve heard some people call it small, I’d argue that it’s much better used than nurseries with more outside space, with the children spending all day out there unless the weather is awful! The management team are superb, they’re accommodating, present and know all the children extremely well, often joining in with them during the day. I don’t think my 2-year old would have had such success with potty training had it not been for the clever setup with the loos being accessible to the children, without needing an adult to specifically take them and the excitement of the bell. Egg Day Nursery Sutton Scotney is the best.

Our children have been attending Egg Day Nursery Sutton Scotney for around 3-years now and our experience throughout this entire time has been superb. I sing their praises to whoever will listen and after the extra support we've received over the last 6-months with my daughter receiving hearing aids, I sing their praises even more! The staff are wonderful and so loved by my children, management are an absolute asset to the setting and the site is clean and engaging for the children. We always feel supported and listened to!

Our little boy has been attending Egg Day Nursery since he turned 1. He is now in their fledglings room which he is absolutely thriving in. He does have some additional needs which the nursery, and particularly his key person, have been extremely understanding of. They offer the children such a mixture of activities each day and get to spend lots of time outside too. All the staff are smiley, warm, and welcoming. We particularly like that the food is cooked on-site, is healthy, and full of variety. We feel the support and nurture the team provides is allowing our son to develop into a confident, chatty, and happy child. We would certainly recommend Egg Day Nursery, a great nursery, and amazing staff.

My child has been attending this nursery since January 2022. The ladies in the nest really helped to settle him in and are brilliant with him every day that he is in. He is always really well fed and the menus always look really good weekly. The nursery is always clean when I enter and everyone is always really smiley. Management are brilliant and always keep me up to date on anything that changes. I highly recommend Egg!

My review covers longer than 12 months, our whole experience at the nursery has been great. They have always been very understanding and helpful. I'm a first-time mum so even things that are new to me they have seen before and have been able to support my child and me and offer advice. This last couple of months we have hit a few troubles but the nursery have helped us overcome them and my little one is very happy.

My son has been the first of my three children to attend a nursery. He attended Egg Day in Sutton Scotney from 6 months to 3 and a half years of age. The staff at Egg have always been approachable, responsive and professional, responding to any feedback, concerns or comments promptly and appropriately. My son has thrived during his time in the Nest, Hatchlings and Fledglings although his enjoyment of nursery began to wain once in the Chicks. The staff in the Nest and the Hatchlings, in particular, were nurturing, promotive of his development and supportive of his engagement. On reflection, now that my son is in an alternative setting for his final year before school, I think the Chicks was simply too noisy and busy for him. Again on reflection, his behaviour had deteriorated to indicate his discomfort. Adjustments were made to give him some space which eased the situation but his poor behaviour and reluctance to go to nursery continued. For my son, therefore, he outgrew the setting.

Great experience from starting at 8-months-old until nearly 5-years-old. Great development and learning through each class and made some lifetime friends. Nursery days will be missed. Great place to go.

My daughter has been going to Egg since she was 9-months-old; she absolutely loves it! She is finally moving up to “big girl school”, and I don’t know who is more upset about her leaving her or me! Egg is an amazing nursery, and they really do become your family! My daughter took her first steps there; they filmed it and phoned me to let me know, I still remember that phone call like it was yesterday! Thank you all so much for everything you have done for us! Egg will always have a special place in our hearts! Highly recommend!

I have 2 children at Egg Day Nursery Sutton Scotney, and they both love it! My eldest has been there since he was 11 months and asks every morning to 'go to Egg', he quite simply would live there if I let him! The staff are all charming and friendly, management are approachable and nothing is ever too much. The communication between staff and parent is really very well managed and any 'hiccups' are very clearly communicated and dealt with. My youngest has only recently started, as he was born during a year of lockdown I was very apprehensive of him joining as he had not been socialised. A short 3 weeks after his first session he was waving at everyone, walking in happily and had developed a wonderful relationship with his key person. As a parent there is nothing that says more about a Nursery than seeing your children run in, with a smile on their face, and give both their friends and staff a hug. I would recommend (and have) to anyone!

My son has attended Egg since he was 10 months old and he has loved it from the beginning. He comes home exhausted and pleasantly grubby at the end of every fun-filled day. He absolutely loves being able to spend lots of time outside and (in more normal times) going on visits in the local area. I am constantly surprised by the life skills he is being taught and often see huge leaps forward in his learning as a new subject or skill is started. Plus there is the bonus of the on-site chef, who cooks fresh hot meals for the children at lunch and tea time. The past year has been difficult with the pandemic but staff have done their absolute best to make life as normal as possible for the children. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone considering it and have no doubt that my son will be ready for school when the time comes.
25 March 2021
We have been so happy with the care and attention both out girls have had from the wonderful staff at Egg. Their staff have always proven to be so thoughtful and child-centered. The team have been responsive to each of their individual personalities and needs and as a result, both have blossomed. They have expertly and sensitively met our daughter's complex nutritional needs reassuring us she is safe and well cared for. From all her support from Egg our eldest was well prepared for the transition to school but was sad to say goodbye to her nursery family.
