Busy Bees Northampton Riverside

We are very happy with Busy Bees. Our son has settled in well and enjoys coming to nursery. Busy Bees are very accommodating and flexible.

Nursery has good opening and close timing for us to leave him early and pick him up late. Overall quite big nursery in size and good room size. Lots of activity for kids and also all good food for children all day around. Just think need more key teacher’s in preschool for 1-1 attention on kids as I can see too many kids in preschool.

I have had a great experience. I would definately recommend it to my friends. The staff are very helpful and courteous.

We have been really happy with this nursery. The facilities inside and out are great and it provides plenty of parking which is great for drop off/pick up. All of the staff are professional and friendly and make both parents and children feel at ease. The children always have lots of fun activities to take part in and there’s always new ideas being thought up. The building and facilities are clean and modern and the outdoor play area has been designed with lots to do and provides plenty of cover/shade on hot sunny days.

My son has settled in very well, quite impressed with the way kids are being taught numbers and words.
Thank you very much for trying different types of food as well. Overall nice and clean atmosphere for kids to learn in a healthy way.

I was really nervous about how my daughter would settle at nursery, particularly given that most of her life has been in lockdown. The manager was really understanding and offered sessions to help settle my daughter prior to her starting four full days a week. This process was not rushed and I believe it really helped to settle my daughter. She loves going to nursery and I have noticed in just a few months that she has developed so much with her movement and speech. All the staff are so helpful and communication is great. I can check on a website throughout the day to check up on what she’s been eating and how long she’s slept for. I would definitely recommend Busy Bees at Northampton Riverside!

Staff are lovely and my son seems to love it here. The food is great and he has tried things we would never have at home. Always comes home happy and love the updates we get through the app throughout the day.

After moving to the area, and trying two other nurseries, I came across Busy Bees at Riverside. I have a 3-year-old and a 1-year-old. I was able to visit the premises. I wasn’t sure how I felt about going to a chain as I felt that family feeling or connection might be lost, I couldn’t have been more wrong! Firstly the actual nursery is gorgeous, it’s clean, spacious and well designed, it has a lovely feel to it, with high ceilings and so many windows. I love the wooden toys and the Scandinavian feel. The team set the rooms up so well with so many different activities. I love that they encourage you to share what the children are up to at home, so they can incorporate it in some way. The team are top-notch and a credit to the company. After trying two nurseries, I finally found somewhere where I felt my children would be treated like family and not just a number. The nursery manager, in just a few weeks, has become a friend, she is amazing, well organised, caring, and clearly loves what she does.

Outstanding nursery, staff are excellent, professional, friendly, and caring. They are extremely informative, keeping us regularly updated with all the learning, activities, meals and naps our little girl is having throughout the day. She is very happy there and we feel comfortable with how she is doing.

My son has been at Busy Bees for nearly two years and we have been really happy with everything. The staff are great and take a genuine interest in each of the children. The activities are all really varied and interesting and the facilities are very good (particularly the garden areas). My second son started there a couple of weeks ago and I have again been impressed by how they have been with him and how quickly he is settling in.
