My little one loves Busy Bees. The staff are all wonderful and take such good care. My little one loves the food, and I can see their development progressing every day. They are so disappointed if we walk by on a non-nursery day when we don't go in. I would wholeheartedly recommend Busy Bees Bromsgrove to any parent.

Absolutely fantastic nursery. Nicola and the team are just wonderful. So nurturing and really care. My little girl loves it and I can’t wait for my little boy to start in September.

I had my reservations about Busy Bees to begin with due to the lack of updates on the app regarding what my little one has been up to day to day, but I've come to realize that as lovely as that would be, it's not as important as I first thought. I feel that the staff make decisions in my little ones best interest, such as moving up to the bigger toddler room as the language is more enriching for him. He loves the bigger room and is thriving. Staff now take the time to give us a little run down of activities, and they're just so friendly and lovely. I highly recommend busy bees. They have outstanding at Ofsted for a reason. Don't compare updates to apps at other nurseries, it's just not important.
