The staff at Spinney Hill are all so wonderful. Both of my girls went here from around 10 months, both now 2.5 years and 15 months. The manager, Beth, is very knowledgeable and was really supportive during the settling in period. She’s very approachable and welcoming. And the staff in all the rooms are just amazing. You always get a warm welcome. They demonstrate a genuinely caring demeanour, and their overall care for the children is brilliant. Both of my girls were super happy to attend. We have recently reluctantly moved nurseries due to a house move, and it’s really highlighted just how exceptional the nursery at Spinney Hill is.

ViewOur time with Busy Bees has now come to an end over a period of almost 10 years, starting with my son and now daughter, with her having finished her last day today. The staff members there are so dedicated and kind, many of whom remain to this day from the day we started there with my son (which speaks volumes). My daughter has thrived here and speaks so fondly of the staff and her key worker. I briefly started my daughter at an alternative nursery based on location convenience but I had an uncomfortable niggling feeling when dropping off and picking up. Worried about transferring and causing my daughter to be unsettled, I eventually made the decision to move back to Busy Bees Spinney Hill and immediately felt like I'd made the right decision. I saw a noticeable positive change in my daughter's mood and her confidence grew. She became so interested in nursery and always spoke of how much she loved the staff. They've all been amazing and I'm sad our time there has come to an end

ViewMy daughter has attended this nursery since she was 11 months old and is now due to leave for school. Throughout these 4+ years I do not have a single complaint. My daughter has excelled in all areas such as communication, confidence, education and so on. My favourite thing about this nursery is how genuine the staff are. When picking up my child I can really see that they genuinely care for her and her development. Another plus is the app updates, this nursery are super on top of updating the app and we get multiple daily updates / pictures which is lovely.

ViewBusy bees Spinney hill has been a great nursery setting for my son. He joined when he was just turned 3 and they helped settle him in and build friendship really well. My son has come on in confidence and learnt new daily life skills from being at this setting. He always comes home happy and has lots of fun stories about his day. The staff are so kind and caring and really do want the best for your child. They are very supportive and always on hand to offer help or advise. The setting is always clean, safe and happy. The kids get to interact with the chef and my son finds that really fun and always tell me what he has had for his meals. My son loves this nursery and for me that is the most important thing.
