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.
Busy Bees offers high-quality childcare in Telford designed to set your child up with a great start in life!
Spacious and welcoming, this day nursery in Telford creates a nurturing environment for kids - encouraging them to become curious little explorers who want to learn more. We have three dedicated rooms, for babies, toddlers, and pre-school children. This allows the children to thrive alongside those at a similar stage in their development journey and helps to boost their confidence.
Our nursery team are on hand to ensure the children are always engaged when they're with us. Throughout the nursery, there are educational toys and learning resources designed to get them thinking and having fun. Whether it's learning about different kinds of fruits and vegetables, discovering animals through play or 'cooking' in the play kitchen - no day is ever boring.
Here, at Busy Bees Telford Priorslee, we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) learning framework. We also have a fully qualified teacher in our pre-school room. With this approach, they prepare your child for their next big step: primary school education. Your child's key worker will keep you updated throughout their day on the Busy Bees app.
With access to an outdoor space, the fun isn’t limited to being indoors! This allows the kids to get out in the fresh air and learn about taking risks in a safe, supervised environment.
Want to come and see our Telford playschool and preschool facilities for yourself? Book your visit today to come and say 'hello' - we can't wait to welcome you!
We understand that parents and carers lead busy lives, and we want to do everything possible to help. That’s why Busy Bees in Telford offers the flexibility of booking additional sessions for when you need them. Find out more about our nursery session booking app, Pebble.

Our experience with this nursery has been nothing short of fantastic. They are always warm, welcoming and our children's safety and learning experience is always the priority. Some of the difficulties that come with being a parent have been much easier to navigate with the support of the nursery. The staff members proactively offer help and empathy; Carla usually greets us at the door with a smile and a positive message starting the day off wonderfully. Ariane is always on hand to help with any queries and Skye manages the room our son is in, often supporting us with difficult drop offs and filling us with such confidence. She communicates wonderfully and provides a detailed overview of the day. The nursery provide a great service daily, but where it really excels is in the face of adversity. We are grateful for everything they do for our son and highly recommend.

ViewBoth my boys have attended Busy Bees in Telford from 11 months old. I couldn't be happier with the support we have had during their time there. It feels like being part of a family. They give so much care to your children and the boys always finish the day with a huge smile on their faces after a fun and engaging day.

ViewMy son has been attending busy bees Priorslee Telford for almost a year now. I only have positive things to say. He settled so well & really enjoys his days with the nursery.

ViewIt has been exactly a year since my daughter started with Busy Bees, she turns 2 in a few weeks and I can't overstate how amazing the staff have been with her. Being a first time parent and having the usual anxieties at the beginning, I can honestly say I don't worry about her whilst she is in the care of the staff at busy bees. They have always assigned her Keyworkers who genuinely know your child and their ways, they push them to learn and explore and challenge theirselves, they give genuine care and attention to their wellbeing. I would recommend this nursery to all and I'm so thankful we selected them.

ViewThe nursery has an enriching curriculum ran by passionate and knowledgeable staff. They care for and know our child well. I am confident that they properly safeguard the children and are diligent when it comes to health and allergies (this is something we value as our child has these issues). At every stage, we have felt staff take the time to know our son and seem to enjoy their time with him. They are thoughtful and encouraging in their interactions and activities! We are really happy we chose busy bees.

ViewOutstanding. My child has developed so well with them. He's striving and succeeding in every aspect. They really are loving and neutering. They have one of the hardest jobs and they manage to do it effortlessly. If I was to have another child I wouldnt hesitate to use busy bees again. Thank you for all your hard work and support.

ViewWe honestly love Busy Bees. My little one has been there since just before he turned two and is now nearly four, and I couldn't have asked for a better nursery for him. His baby sister already has a place secured for September! The staff are amazing - so kind, patient and genuinely care about the children. It's clear how well they know my child as an individual as strong relationships between him and staff are evident. The activities are brilliant and he's learned so much while having loads of fun - we get to see it on the app, and we hear all about it when he comes home! Also the food deserves a medal He eats things there that he completely refuses at home, which says it all! I feel totally confident leaving him there and would recommend Busy Bees to any parent without hesitation.

ViewMy daughter has been attending Busy Bees since September 2024 and we are very happy with our experience here. She has come on leaps and bounds, is a very confident girl and we can tell she feels very comfortable and happy at nursery. Her language skills are developing rapidly, which is definitely something that can be attributed to the hard work of the ladies at Busy Bees as we are a bilingual household and try not to speak English to our daughter at home. The regular updates and photos on the app are very welcome, I love seeing what she gets up to in the day. She has made friends and has a lot of fun, and is very comfortable with those who work at the nursery. The food always sounds lovely, and it must taste that way too since she always polishes it off. The management at Telford is great and always very friendly and responsive. Busy bees is a great establishment, and our son will start to attend later this year too.

ViewI can't overstate how grateful my husband and I are for the care our youngest receives at Busy Bees. I drop her off every morning with complete confidence, knowing she is in safe, caring hands. Our son, now 6, also attended Busy Bees during Covid. He had enlarged adenoids and allergies, which meant he needed additional care during naptimes and close attention to foods that could trigger reactions. Nothing was ever too much trouble for the staff. Even now, they still shower him with love whenever he joins me for drop-offs or collections. All of this is to say that Busy Bees Priorslee provides an exceptional level of care, and parents can be completely assured that their little ones are truly in good hands.
