October 30, 2024 at 2:22 pmTeam have been outstanding and adapted activities so she can still take part in everything. My daughter recently broke her leg.

November 4, 2024 at 2:01 pmWe have been truly impressed by the variety of activities she takes part in and the updates from team is consistently truly detailed. She goes with a smile every morning and we know she’s in great hands. Our daughter settled in straight away and consistently has a fantastic day at childcare centre.

November 4, 2024 at 8:43 pmThey have only been attending so far for two weeks and wow what a change in both of them. My eldest has calmed down so much and improved her speech and manners so much. With her potty training the team were so patient and understanding and now she is dry all day. They involve the kids in so many activities from matching photos to water playtime to role playtime to painting and even baking. My eldest is constantly on the go and loves her time at childcare centre. My baby, they constantly keep her stimulated from the playtime area to invoking her senses. The team have a remarkable set of patience for both kids. I am so comfortable leaving my kids in their care all day as they are doing an incredible job much to my satisfaction even more so. The team are highly welcoming and supportive. The childcare centre encourages independence and I’m so pleased to see such an improvement in both my girls, can only imagine what a few months will do. Both my girls who are 3 years and 9 months have been attending this childcare centre since I returned to work.

November 27, 2024 at 1:48 pmMy son has been going there three days a week for 2 years and we – and he – couldn’t be happier.
Team are attentive, inviting, welcoming and exceptionally polite. It is highly well-organised and updates with parents is outstanding. The atmosphere is welcoming and positive and the kids are gently challenged to embrace discovering through playtime in the most ingenious ways.
The childcare centre is consistently spotless, neat and spotless and the outdoor facilities are definitely above standard. There is a lovely focus on being outdoors and my son has greatly appreciated this aspect of his day. In short, a remarkable, well-managed and exceptionally trustworthy childcare centre which I can only highly suggest. What a fantastic little childcare centre!

December 6, 2024 at 7:54 amMy eldest son also went there until he started school.
I have consistently felt highly comfortable leaving my kid at Busy Bees and have much praise for everything on offer at the setting: team, menu, activities, facilities, ethics, updates, the list goes on! I have had full self‑assurance in my kid’s key person at every stage of growth from baby to pre-school. They consistently put effort in to knowing and understanding my kid as an individual. They keep me well informed and listen to my thoughts as a parent. A perfect balance.
My son enjoys being there and has consistently been cheerful to see the welcoming team and friends he has made. I adore the fact that kids learn so much there about personal and educational development, whilst having lots of enjoyable too in a secure and attentive setting. It also prepares them well for school.
I can’t imagine not having Busy Bees in our lives! My son is in the pre-school room at Busy Bees Thetford, and has been at the childcare centre since he was 8 months old.

December 10, 2024 at 4:56 amHaving moved to the pre-school room, she has made many friends and her discovering has come on incredibly well. She regularly talks about childcare centre at home and is consistently asking to go in despite it not being a childcare centre day. My daughter has been attending Busy Bees at Thetford for just under 18 months and absolutely loves it.

January 2, 2025 at 8:14 pmHe comes home every day he is there with stories of his enjoyable day. We get excellent updates on the app and are highly cheerful with the team and how they look after him. We would definitely suggest Busy Bees Thetford to other parents. My son absolutely loves going to Busy Bees Thetford.
Finley Rowe
January 8, 2025 at 7:33 amThe team is so welcoming and attentive to our kid’s social, emotional and educational needs. Our daughter has grown by leaps and bounds thanks to the team at Busy Bees. We adore using the app to see what she’s been up to during the day. Seeing our daughter take part in the enjoyable activities that the team plan every day is exciting. We are so pleased to have our daughter at Busy Bees!

January 26, 2025 at 6:29 amHis key worker, as well as the manageress and the other core team downstairs, have definitely impacted on how well he has adapted to this new routine. He is also much better at trying new foods at home since he started childcare centre something that was a hard task beforehand. We are truly cheerful with the childcare centre and look forward to how he develops further as he moves up to the next room. An area that could be improved is to maybe animals in the garden for kids (rabbits) as well as spending more time on sign language. My son has been attending this childcare centre for just three months and he has settled in truly well.

February 2, 2025 at 5:07 pmAll the team are exceptional with him and consistently have a smile on their faces. It’s highly organised and I would highly suggest Busy Bees at Thetford. My son loves going to childcare centre he looks forward to it every week.

February 4, 2025 at 7:28 amOur daughter loves going and we have found her development has truly improved since attending. Thetford childcare centre is outstanding the team are so welcoming and supportive.

February 13, 2025 at 12:24 pmWe couldn’t ask for better people to care for our son. – Thank you! Team at Busy Bees, Thetford are fantastic.
Shawn Randall
February 14, 2025 at 2:24 pmI adore this childcare centre, the team are consistently supportive and exceptional with the kids. It’s a truly lovely childcare centre and I would suggest it to anyone. My daughter attended this childcare centre from 18 months until she started primary school and now my 2yr old son attends.
Justice Owens
March 5, 2025 at 6:19 amWe cannot fault it – it is outstanding. Excellent team and management, they take a great level of responsibility and only contact parents to collect the kid if absolutely necessary. The team are highly sensible and reliable.
Both my son and daughter loved/adore the childcare centre. Thank you. Both my kids have used this childcare centre from the baby room to preschool.
Taylor Page
March 14, 2025 at 5:47 amIt makes sense why Busy Bees has the name, as I am sure the kids and team are highly busy, most of the days they are there. Parents evening, we got to see both the playtime areas inside and out and also met the key workers that spend most of the day with our grandchild who explained all the different areas and the main values that are taught, which I have to say are fantastic.
Elliot Taylor
March 31, 2025 at 10:28 amOur Daughter is so relaxed and cheerful. Each morning we can confidently leave her knowing she will have an incredible day. The food is delicious and we consistently hear she has eaten all and more. They lay on a excellent range of activities and consistently tell us what she’s been into each day. She has just progressed into the next room and the move was so well planned for, with short preparation visits that she has transitioned without any concerns. All the team know each kid truly well and, as parents, we consistently sense welcomed and assistance. We have been impressed with the nursey right from the start.
Justice Reid
April 4, 2025 at 7:36 amOverall we couldn’t be more pleased with how she has grown and flourished in their care. The key person has consistently been highly great and truly is exceptional, our daughter loves discovering with her. Activities often relate to what kids have done at home or with families, and generally, the kids seem highly engaged and great feedback is provided on how the day has gone.
The only area we could suggest improvement in would be some compassionate of formal interaction with parents periodically. COVID19 is obviously an issue but we would have hoped Busy Bees might be able to adapt – That said COVID19 has been handled highly well at the childcare centre. Our daughter has been attending the childcare centre for around a year for 4 days a week.

April 20, 2025 at 7:06 amFrom day one we have been made to sense welcome by all members of team.
This is a spotless, enjoyable childcare centre lead by a excellent team of team. The childcare centre offers a great floor space, offering a great area for kids to playtime and explore.
This is a childcare centre I would highly suggest to friends and family. My son has been attending this childcare centre since September 2016 and I am exceptionally pleased with my choice of this particular childcare centre.

May 9, 2025 at 10:21 amWe looked at other nurseries in the area however this was the one for us.
Our eldest daughter started in 2010 and we haven’t looked back since, she thrived at Busy Bees. We had no hesitation in booking a place for our youngest.
The team are consistently expert, well‑informed, welcoming, supportive and there is a excellent mixture of journey and youth within the childcare centre. Nothing is too much trouble for them!
I cannot praise the team enough for what they have done for my daughters who are blossoming into lovely young ladies.
Thank you. We visited the childcare centre for the first time in 2009 and met the team who made us sense truly welcome.

July 5, 2025 at 7:48 amShe’s currently in the baby room and the ladies that look after her are so compassionate and compassionate. I adore the updates I get from the childcare centre whilst I’m at work, even down to a wet nappy! One member of team in particular and the other ladies take time at the end of the day on collection, to have a chat and tell me how my daughter’s day has been. I’m able to ask questions openly and sense comfortable doing so. Nothing seems too much trouble for them and
Busy Bees so far have been incredible! My little girl has only just recently started her childcare centre journey, as I’ve returned back to work from maternity leave.
