Providing high standard, high quality childcare is of utmost importance to us and we want your child to enjoy their time at our nursery. Each child is treated as an individual and we strive to ensure that each child's social, physical and emotional needs are met.
At Busy Bees at Shenley some of our unique objectives to providing high quality childcare include...

Here are some of the comments from our latest Ofsted report: -
"Babies enjoy the security of close relationships with familiar adults. They gain confidence and self-assurance because they are warmly praised and encouraged."
" Positive behaviour is promoted throughout the nursery, with children learning to share and show respect for others. All children enjoy the social occasion of sitting around a table to share their meals and healthy friendships are evident as older children begin to play together in imaginative play."
"Children's independence and choice are promoted successfully. They help themselves easily to toys and activities, they are becoming independent in using the toilet and pre-school children confidently serve and help to clear away their own meals. This develops their sense of achievement and self-esteem.”
“Planning based on each child's individual needs and interests successfully promotes children's good progress in most aspects of learning and development. The nursery values the diversity of its community and uses effective strategies to integrate those that may need additional support. Generally secure arrangements exist to ensure the safety and welfare of the children.”
“The management is clearly focused on helping children make good progress in their learning and development and promoting their welfare.”
At Busy Bees at Shenley we make mealtimes happy social occasions, where skills can be developed and new foods tasted.
We are dedicated to providing your children with fresh, well-balanced meals every day; that not only taste great, but that also provide lots of nourishment.
To ensure we are providing well balanced, nutritious meals to our children, the Busy Bees catering team worked alongside Michelin-starred chef, Phil Vickery, and a child nutritionist to create a brand new range of delicious recipes to use, as part of the nurseries' day to day menus.
