Say hello to Bee Curious, our exciting new curriculum! As the UK's only independently evaluated early years curriculum, it fosters a love of learning, giving your child a head start in life.
Welcome to our Outstanding Busy Bees nursery at Blythe Gate in Solihull! Here, we provide the perfect environment so that your child can learn, grow and develop at their own pace, to ensure they have the best start in life.
Our nursery has recently been fully refurbished to offer five large fully equipped rooms which enable the children to explore and experience different learning areas. At Busy Bees, we understand that every child's development journey is different, therefore we offer an extensive range of activities and resources which are tailored perfectly to suit the ages and needs of all children in each of our rooms.
Your child will be able to safely explore and enjoy the outdoors throughout our three secure garden areas with a focus on learning through play. These outdoor spaces are equipped with age–appropriate resources and there are always fun-filled activities planned, designed to keep your child’s mind and body happy and engaged.
Many of the team at Blythe Gate are long serving, dedicated to giving the best care for your child to ensure they enjoy their time at nursery. We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum and strive to help prepare your child for their next big milestone; primary school.
We also have a wonderful on-site Chef who prepares delicious and nutritious food from NHS accredited menus, making sure your little one eats well throughout their day and of course we cater for individual dietary requirements.
Using our ParentZone app you’ll be able to stay up to date with your child’s day. This is a wonderful way to keep you connected with the nursery staff and you’ll be aware of all the activities your child has taken part in. We also encourage our parents to use our learning and development app, UP, which offers a range of learning activities that can be done at home.

ViewMy son has attended Busy Bees Blythe Valley since he was 12 months old, he is due to start school in September and I can say through his entire 3 years he has a brilliant nursery experience. The staff and management have supported him kept us as parents well informed as to his daily goings on the entire time. The nursery is set up perfectly, with each class having plentiful space and activities both inside and out, it has also been great in terms of opening/closing times and logistically easy to park up and drop off safely. Would highly recommend to others.

ViewI could not recommend busy bees Blythe valley enough. The staff are all kind, caring and knowledgeable. The menu is varied and interesting and always goes down well with our little boy. The rooms have a variety of activities and different areas and each has a great garden. Most importantly our son is incredibly happy at nursery and loves his time there. He has also progressed incredibly well in his development during his time so far at busy bees.

ViewMy first child left 7 years ago after being there full time for 3 years. My second started there 6 months ago. It was brilliant then and is brilliant now. I would highly recommend to anyone. We don't live locally but choose to travel because we didn't find a nursery that compared.

ViewOur daughter started BusyBees nearly 12 months ago. The staff have been incredibly friendly and supportive of us as a family. Our daughter struggled at points to return after being absent but staff were calm and found alternative ways to reintroduce her to the centre. Her development has been a pleasure to see especially through the app which is updated regularly.

ViewWe have now had 2 children enrolled at Busy Bees Blythe Gate and honestly wouldn't consider sending them anywhere else. The team are great, showing great care of the children they are responsible for. Through to the range in food menus offered across the week and the range of activities they complete. They also update the app regularly so we know how our child is getting on whether that be nappy changes, food eaten, length of sleep through to pictures of what they are upto.

ViewMy son has been attending the nursery for over a year now and he thoroughly enjoys his time here and often doesn't want to leave when we pick him up! The staff and management are very friendly, helpful and supportive. I feel the key workers also give a good insight into how the day has been. I also see how my child is fond of certain members of staff and has created strong bonds and relationships. I always highly recommend the nursery setting to friends and family as my experience has been first class.
