Meet the team
Natalie Lee
Nursery Manager
Hi I'm Natalie and I am the Manager at Busy Bees in Woking. I have worked with Busy Bees now since 2001 in which time I have completed NVQ Level 3 in Childcare, First Aid at Work and Peadiatric First aid training, Safeguarding Module 1, 2 and 3, Level 3 in Food Hygiene as well as a BSC in Health and Safety. I originally started off as a Nursery Assistant at Busy Bees in Farnborough and slowly worked my way up to Room Leader gaining lots of experience within all the age groups and soon on went to assistant Manager and then took on role as Manager at Farnborough and Basingstoke before moving over to Woking nursery in 2010.
I supported the nursery team to improve the quality of Childcare that was being provided and help implement policies and procedures to ensure that the nursery is adhering to these at all times. We achieved our Outstanding ofsted grade in 2013 where the inspector recognised the outstanding quality of care that was being provided, since then we have continued to improve in all areas to bring the nursery from strength to strength. We have a strong partnership with our parents and we meet regularly with our Parent Partnership Group who support our existing and new parents to ensure we are all improving the quality of care we provide.
I have children of my own who have attended Busy Bees and are now both at school, during their time at Busy Bees they really thrived and I believe that the team here really gave them the best start in life and helped prepare them for school.
My team and I are passionate about our nursery and continuously working hard as a team to ensure that we are providing a safe and stimulating learning environment for our children to ensure they are getting the best possible start in life that I believe they truly deserve.
Please get in touch today to book your visit. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
