ViewOverall, my child is happy at the nursery, and we appreciate the care provided. However, there are a few areas where improvements could enhance the overall experience: 1.More consistent daily updates - App updates are currently irregular and sometimes incomplete. More accurate and consistent communication would help parents better understand their child's day. 2.Improved communication and follow-through - Parent feedback and requests should be acknowledged and acted upon more consistently. For example, if a parent asks for their child to remain indoors for a specific reason, this should be respected. 3.Greater patience in staff interactions - While guidance is necessary, it would be beneficial if staff focused more on calmly explaining expectations, helping children learn through understanding. 4.More structured activities - Adding more guided group activities alongside free play would support learning and development through structured, purposeful plays.

ViewOur child has had an excellent experience since starting at Busy Bees Walthamstow. They settled in instantly, connecting with their key worker. Sleeps well, eats well, and comes home very happy and content from a busy day. We are thoroughly pleased with the care our child has received and has made us feel all that more relaxed in the morning when dropping off. We like the new app in use and that keeps us generally well informed. The conversational pick up and and drop off feedback each day is really nice and useful but would appreciate if the app was used more regularly to share activities and photos during the day. Our child eats very well and enjoys the food and all the extra portions but does come home somewhat messy on most days!

ViewOur son has been going here for 7 months now and is loving it. He settled in so quickly, sleeps and eats far better than he does at home! The staff are brilliant, creating a safe, creative environment for the little ones to flourish and it's clear our little man is very attached to both his previous and current key person. They also have a fantastic outdoor space which is brilliant for the children in the warmer months. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone looking in the area.

He's built friendships that we know will last a lifetime, and the confidence and skills he's developed here have been nothing short of amazing.

ViewI'm really happy with the care my baby is receiving, and I can see that he is settling well with his key person. Although he still cries when I drop him off, it's very reassuring to see him willingly go to his key person, which gives me confidence that he feels safe and comfortable. Thank you for all the care and support you provide. I really appreciate the work you do!
