Busy Bees Leicester City is a beautiful 3 storey listed Victorian building situated in Leicester City Centre’s conservation area of New Walk, close to the railway station, Victoria Park and the Museum making it convenient for commuting parents. As we are in such an idyllic location, we are able to visit the local attractions making the most of the astonishing wildlife on offer not to mention the endless learning opportunities.

We are proud to be a multi-cultural nursery and also offer Halal food. We even teach the children different languages to say hello during registration!

When our children join our Pre-School we offer PE lessons where we ask the children to bring in their own PE kits in from home to practice getting changed themselves in preparation for big school in addition to our shared reading library.

"Hi really like Leicester city Busy Bees nursery. My son is happy to be there. However, I am not very happy with the management. For example, I have recommended my colleague to join her son the nursery and she did. Unfortunately, I have not received £500.0 reward which had been advertised. "
