My children, wife and I love the staff here, they are friendly and welcoming every day and form a real connection with the children, which is lovely to see. My eldest son has received one-on-one assistance with various members of the team in order to help develop his speech. I'm happy to say his speech has vastly improved as a result of the structured sessions provided to him. All in all, a great nursery with an excellent team of people.

ViewMy son has been going to Busy Bees in Sutton Scotney for the last four years. He has ASD but we didn't know that when he joined. This nursery has been utterly amazing and it is really hard to find the words to say how much I recommend them. Even though my child can be challenging sometimes, they've never flinched and worked with us every step of the way. Day-to-day, the children have a great time and both my children are always excited to go to nursery. The staff all communicate well with parents and they handle difficult situations (like Covid) very well. The care, love and support they've given, not only to my child but also to us, is truly incredible. They are like a second family to my son.

ViewOur daughter started in June 2022 at 16 months, progressing from upstairs to downstairs, and we have had no regrets or concerns at all since. Not being from the area, the reputation of the nursery was very high,h and this was what first attracted us. All of her team really are the gems of the nursery; they have always made us feel at ease leaving our daughter in their care. The communication is fantastic, and any concerns are always addressed very quickly. We?ve always had very good relationships with the team, and it has a real ?family feel?, which is exactly what we were looking for. Everyone knows each child by name, even if they do not have daily contact with them, which is lovely. The food is of a great standard thanks to the staff, which is a very big positive. Our daughter?s development is hugely down to the nursery, and we are so grateful for this. And most importantly, she is so incredibly happy, every day she is there. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.
