Both my children attend busy bees and are so happy, growing in confidence and in size! They are well looked after, the staff are very kind and nurturing and their meals are wonderful. The staff are forward thinking, make it a priority to get to know each child. My children are usually very excited to play with their friends and be at nursery.

My child loves coming to Busy Bees, Leeds Farsley. The staff team are so friendly and nurturing; creating an environment that the children are comfortable in and can enjoy their learning and development. My only suggestion would be that the menus on the website don't seem to replicate the food provided, consistently.

Our children have settled into Busy Bees really well. The staff are excellent. They are approachable, friendly and caring. They get to know the children really well and always make time to do a handover at the end of the day. Most importantly my children are happy there.

The manager and the team at Busy Bees Leeds Farsley have looked after all 3 of my girls over the past few years and I am so thankful to have them in our lives! I always feel so happy to leave them there and they run in every day with big smiles on their faces, excited to see what the day brings. They have helped us with speech and language journeys and helped my eldest get school ready, meaning her transition to school was much smoother than expected. Could not recommend them more highly and will always suggest them to family and friends.

Brilliant team who cannot do enough for my child. Really friendly, caring and nurturing. Great balance of meals provided which always go down well! Really good range of activities offered and my child is always happy to be there. The only thing I might like more of is more photos of what he's been up to!

The staff are all very friendly and go out of their way to help and support us. Two nervous parents, putting their firstborn in nursery. All efforts to reassure us and maintain routine are very much appreciated.

Always a warm welcome on a morning from the staff. Kept up to date throughout the day via the app. Very happy with my child's progress, care and happiness. Clearly settled and has built a great bond with staff members. A variety of foods are offered on the menu as well as numerous snacks throughout the day. I have recommended friends to the nursery and will continue to do so.

I find the nursery is amazing with my daughter. It seems to be like one big family for her. Always talking about fun times with friends and staff. The learning side of things has been brilliant, as I feel my daughter will be at a great level to start school in September.

Love this place! So glad I chose to send my son here. It’s such a big decision and one I certainly don’t regret. My son has settled in so well with the help of the team - they’ve all been fantastic. They’re patient, friendly, empathetic. Nothing is too much. It’s clean and the food is great. He loves it and often has double portions! Getting him introduced has been a transition, that the girls have been only too happy to help with. I can reach them on the phone whenever I need to. They keep me informed on everything relating to my son and the nursery itself. What more can I say. 100% recommend.

Our twins started attending the nursery in May 2018 and the staff at the nursery have been nothing short of brilliant. They have made the children feel very welcome and have been so reassuring to us. They have been really flexible in accommodating our childcare needs which has meant that our transition into working parents has been made as seamless as possible.

Our son progressed very quickly after joining the nursery. He was eating more on his own, drank from a cup, developed his speech etc. He is always excited to go and see his friends and teachers and he loves the activities! I highly recommend our nursery!

Both my children have attended this nursery since being 1 year of age. Despite two changes in ownership over the last two years, the care and wellbeing of the children has always been excellent. The staff are extremely caring, hard-working and enthusiastic. It has a lovely welcoming feel and my children have always loved it. I’m sure the refurbishment will be an added bonus.

Despite numerous ownership changes in the last two years, there’s been absolutely no impact to the quality of childcare. This is testament to the dedication and love of the staff and local management. My child comes home full of stories of the different activities he’s done each day and the progress he’s making in the EYFS is evident in simple interaction but also reported back regularly. The staff are kind, moral and supportive and continue anything I ask for focus on without complaint! A brilliant Nursery, even from baby stage and the pricing is standard for the area. Love that they engage the kids in different activities and work on introducing British culture too!

My 18 month old loves going to nursery. He has so much fun he sometimes does not want to leave! Nursery has really brought out his confidence and personality and has played a key role in his progression and development since he started at 11 months old. There have been some key staff changes since he started attending which have all been positive. I find all the staff to be friendly and helpful and I am confident that they care for my son. The baby room is very well equipped and has recently had some new things added to further engage my son. He loves the nursery rhyme bags and has a favourite place to sleep during the day. He appears to enjoy the food, more than meals at home. There always seems to be something going on to keep everyone occupied. I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery.

Great Staff. Great Hygiene. Great work. The new manager has been such brilliant help with my needs. My child has come along so much in this Nursery.
22 September 2017
My children have attended this nursery for the last 4 years and since it was taken over and ceased to be the previous owners and the senior staff left, the standards have fallen in remarkably. Since the new group owners took over the site, the quality is even worse. The food is overpriced and of poor quality and the level of pre school teaching is non-existent. My daughter left today and there is no way if I had another child would I allow them to attend this nursery. Such a good place 3 years ago is now no place you should send your child.
29 June 2017
The nursery has been through significant change in the last few months and a lot of staff have left which has meant a lot of uncertainty for us all. I have been impressed with how the current interim manager is dealing with it and things seem more stable. I would be in a better position to "not sit on the fence" with my answer in a few months. During this time I would hope to see no more staff leave and them build on the current work they are doing.

Since my child has recently started nursery I have been very happy with the care they received, every day they come home telling me stories and what activities they have done, who she has played with. My child has become so confident and I know I've chosen the right nursery. The staff are fantastic and have made me feel at ease when leaving her as it's the first time we have really been apart.

Our daughter has thrived since going to Kindercare. I regard the place very highly and the manager is very good and organised.

Since my son started going to Kindercare last year, he has really come on and developed so well. The staff are fantastic and have been very good at identifying his needs, and encouraging him to learn. We were apprehensive as we had just moved from Scotland where he loved his nursery, but he hasn't looked back! He has made lots of friends and knows all the staff by name. There is a focus on helping kids to learn but it is balanced with creativity and play. We would thoroughly recommend to other parents looking for a small, intimate and well structured nursery.
