Nursery in Guildford, Fitzsimmons

My 3 children have all attended Busy Bees Fitzsimmons over the past 9 years until now. I am so sad that our time there is now up as my youngest is off to school, as it has really been a wonderful experience for them all. The staff are very loving and make my daughter smile and laugh a lot. They have an excellent getting ready for school scheme which has been so good to prepare them for the big next step. A truly lovely nursery.

We have been at Busy Bees Fitzsimmons for nearly three years and our two children absolutely love going there each day. It's a very welcoming nursery - the staff all take the time to speak to you and there is also a lovely parent community. Each week, there are themed activities, including 'book' and 'song' of the week which are detailed outside the classrooms so you know what the children are learning and can talk about it at home. The starting school programme has also been integral to helping my daughter get ready for this new chapter. The garden is a great space, particularly in the summer where the children can explore the upper levels too. Thank you, Fitzsimmons team!

Both my boys have attended this nursery and my youngest has just finished. This is a lovely nursery with good outdoor and indoor space and kind staff. I would thoroughly recommended, hence why the cousins have since started!

Great nursery. To be recommended.

The staff give the children, (and the management staff for the parents) brilliant support. Leaving your child is so hard, but seeing the care and time given by the staff in each room really helps with that. The activities done each day are great at occupying the kids, allowing them freedom to explore and discover and tailored to each age range. The food seems popular and diverse, which is great, and the chefs help in the rooms at times and are very popular with the kids! It is a place that cares, nourishes, and allows room for growth, learning and socialising, with patience and calm.

Our son has attended Fitzsimmons for the past three years, and it has been absolutely outstanding. Staff are warm, supportive, fiercely inclusive and nurtured our child through every step. He's about to start school now and is completely ready for it thanks to the care and attention of the whole Fitzsimmons team - from his key assistants in his classes to the top-notch catering.

Wonderful people, good environment for your kids to grow, thrive

Busy Bees has played an essential role in both my two daughters development, with my one year old already showing positive signs having only being in their care for a month. Both my husband and I feel safe in the knowledge that they are being well looked after, challenged, developed and most importantly, nurtured. No staff member cares less than the other and they all work together in ensuring our children are being fully supported. Communication is always very good and the in house events that are held are always good fun and a chance to chat to other parents and feel like a part of my children's? BB experience.

Our daughter has been going to Fitzsimmons 3-4 days per week for over 2 years, since she was a year old. We?ve found the staff to be excellent - well organised, caring and creative. The nursery is spacious inside and out and the staff come up with so many ideas for activities that help to develop physical, emotional, and social skills. Little things happen all the time which make us think 'Wow, she must have learned that at nursery?. She has formed some great bonds with staff and other children. The nursery is also really good at updating the Parent App. It?s helpful to know about meals, nappies, and sleep - and see photos of what the children get up to - but in particular, we enjoy the monthly snapshots and longer reports at key milestones which give great insight into something developmental. Fitzsimmons is also great at organising special activities for parents to attend and even offers chats with the key persons periodically on a Saturday. Thank you team!
