Nursery Facilities

Our nursery has dedicated rooms designed around the needs of different age groups, providing children with age-appropriate resources and activities to support their development. From sand and water play outdoors to engaging indoor experiences, there are plenty of opportunities for children to explore, learn and have fun.

Our experienced team build strong relationships with children and families, with each child having a dedicated key person to support their care and development. Families can also stay connected through the Busy Bees App, with updates on their child’s day and important milestones.

Located on Grange Way, just off the A164, our Beverley nursery is conveniently positioned for families in the local area. We’re also close to East Riding Community Hospital and around a 10-minute drive from Beverley town centre, making us a convenient choice for local families and commuters.

We have a large on-site car park directly outside the nursery for easy drop-offs and collections, as well as a handy buggy store for families arriving on foot or by public transport.

We’d love to welcome you and your family to Busy Bees Beverley. Book a visit to explore our nursery, meet our friendly team and discover what we have to offer.

Director

Sharon Haysom

Hello, my name is Sharon Haysom and I am the Centre Director here at Busy Bees Beverley.

With over 20 years of experience in Early Years education, I joined Busy Bees in 2024 as Assistant Centre Director before becoming Centre Director in January 2025. My passion for Early Years has also been shaped by raising my own three children, who are now adults.

Here at our centre, we understand the important role we play in your child’s early years. Our dedicated team creates a caring and supportive environment where children can feel secure, develop their confidence and enjoy learning through play. We work closely with families to provide the care, encouragement and opportunities children need to thrive.

I look forward to welcoming you and your child and sharing in the exciting first steps of their learning journey.

Meet the amazing team

Both of my children go to Busy Bees Beverley and absolutely love it. I can honestly say it is a fantastic nursery, my daughter has been going a year and learnt so much! My son started recently and we can already see a difference, they are so supportive and the staff are amazing. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they listen, definitely recommend Busy Bees!
