Our Centre is located within Maryhill, which is 10 minutes outside Glasgow City Centre. Glasgow Kelvin is a bright, warm, welcoming Centre, set within West of Scotland Science Park. We have 4 large, bright, stimulating playrooms for children, with 3 of them having direct access to an outdoor space. We are also lucky enough to have access to large open countryside, which is very easily accessible from the Centre. All children's meals are prepared on site by our Nursery Chef, who ensures that all the children receive healthy nutritious meals using locally sourced seasonal produce. All mealtimes are carried out in a warm homely nurturing environment, where staff join in on stimulating conversations with the children. Everyone at Kelvin would love to welcome you and your child into our Nursery Family.

From the very first drop-off we were reassured that our child was being well looked after. Every staff member helped our 8month old to settle in, learning her preferences and schedules. It is obvious on collecting her every evening that she loves Busy Bees Glasgow, Kelvin and the staff and she is happy, safe, stimulated and well looked after.

ViewI am very happy with the care given to my daughter. So far she has experienced the baby and tweenies room and all of the staff have been fantastic. Supportive, friendly and experienced. The manager is excellent and everyone seems happy and approachable all through the nursery. My daughter settled very well and quickly and she really enjoys going to nursery. This gives me great peace of mind.

ViewBoth of my children enjoy being at Busy Bees Glasgow, Kelvin. They do a variety of activities, which change regularly, and always have options if a child wants to do something else. The variety of food offered is wide and always a crowd-pleaser. I feel confident in the staff, both in the nursery rooms as well as management. No request is ever any trouble and I know my children are well taken care of. Regular updates on their app give additional comfort.

ViewWe have two children in Busy Bees Nursery and both are care experienced. From our first introduction meeting with the nursey manager, we knew it was the right place. From day one, they took a trauma-informed approach, enabling our children to feel safe, secure and develop great nurturing relationships with the staff and build friendships with the children in their rooms. They worked closely with our kids helping them overcome challenges and build their confidence into the happy children they are now. As a same-sex couple, the management have been fantastic in supporting our children to learn about different families (one parent, grandparents as main carers, two mummies, two daddies). We can always call or pop in to talk about anything. A person-centred approach is at the heart of this nursery. Busy Bees, Kelvin is a warm and welcoming place with a large outdoor area (the kids love being outdoors). The food sounds delicious. We honestly cannot recommend them enough!

ViewMy daughter has been attending this wonderful nursery and she has had an amazing experience with the highly professional and fantastic teachers and staff. I am surprised to see that the nursery only has a 3-star rating, but I highly recommended it to one of my friends and her daughter now attends here as well! Taeju
