October 15, 2019 at 12:00 amOver the moon with how my son is cared for by the staff at Cheadle Kingsway nursery. He is always happy to be left because he is greeted with a smile and a cuddle each time. The room is always set up with different toys in all the areas of the room. I love the parent zone so I can see different things he gets up to and read the different observations the staff do on his development.

November 21, 2019 at 12:00 amOur daughter absolutely loves going to nursery and we are constantly amazed by the things they learn whilst there.
I think the relationship the staff have with the children is fantastic and it makes it so much easier as a parent to know that they are somewhere they enjoy and are being well looked after. I also believe they are given great opportunities and experiences eg painting, activities, outside play and even Spanish. Our manager is great and is always understanding and accommodating.

March 27, 2020 at 12:00 amWe are extremely happy with the standards and quality of the nursery. Our daughter enjoys her time spent there. The staff are very friendly and approachable and provide an excellent service. I feel my child is very safe and her needs are met. My only suggestion is more outdoor play and learning even when the weather is bad as I believe this is very important for their health and development.

March 30, 2020 at 12:00 amI am so happy with how my child has settled into nursery as she is very used to being with me so I was I little apprehensive. The management and staff have been so welcoming to us both and made me feel more confident in going back to work.
The quality of care has been brilliant and I love getting the updates of what’s she’s done at the end of the day.

April 1, 2020 at 12:00 amMy boys have settled so well into nursery life. The girls have been amazing and always at the end of the phone. I love getting notifications on the parent zone app to tell me what they have been up to and so easy for me to add my own input. I can’t thank the staff enough for all the love and care they give my boys. They eat so well which has been such a help for me to get them to try new things.

September 3, 2020 at 12:00 amAfter returning from lockdown we were a little nervous to get back to ‘normal’ but the staff at Busy Bees have been amazing, letting us do another settle in session before returning properly really helped us both feel at ease. My daughter loves going to nursery each day, she has settled back great again with no more tears, she obviously feels very safe, comfortable and happy to go to nursery each day. Can’t ask for more!

November 9, 2020 at 12:00 amBoth my girls have attended Busy Bees in Cheadle. They have always been very happy there. The staff are all fantastic and many have been consistent and longterm members of staff/caregivers. This provides excellent continuity and security for the children but is also testament to the management. Happy staff stay. Would definitely recommend and have done. Many times.

March 18, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves the baby room staff and her friends. All of the baby room staff make me and my daughter feel extremely welcome. Feedback is always positive. The baby room is one big happy family. Every time I look through the corridor window, she and all the other babies are always content. No issues whatsoever. It is so important to feel your child is safe and happy and this is how Busy Bees in Cheadle Kingsway makes me feel.

March 30, 2021 at 12:00 amOur three-year-old daughter has attended Busy Bees in Cheadle Kingsway since she was six months old, so has spent time in all rooms, such as baby, toddler and now preschool. From the very beginning, she has been extremely happy there and has never once been reluctant to go! We are confident that she is well cared for and has learnt invaluable social skills, as well as gaining early educational knowledge, both of which will provide a great basis for school. The staff are friendly and consistent, there have been very few changes across three years, which shows it is a strong and happy team. The centre director is also very approachable and receptive to questions and feedback, which is reassuring. The centre might not be as smart-looking as some more modern nurseries but it is well-maintained and we love that there is a large, creative garden area for all ages of children. The food is also excellent, both in balance and variety and communal table manners are clearly encouraged.

March 30, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves coming to nursery, she has great relationships with the staff and other children. A lot of the staff have worked at the nursery for many years and really know the children well. They offer lots of different activities and lots of outdoor and messy play, which my daughter loves! The food is cooked on site, it’s healthy and a wide variety is offered. All the staff are approachable and friendly, it’s a great nursery!

March 30, 2021 at 12:00 amWe moved our daughter to this nursery from her previous nursery after it came highly recommended to us from friends whose children have attended. We are very happy with our decision. The care is excellent, our child is thriving and is always excited to tell us about her days at nursery. I would strongly recommend Busy Bees in Cheadle Kingsway.

March 30, 2021 at 12:00 amThe staff at Busy Bees are wonderful! Each and every one shows genuine care for the children and for ensuring they have a positive experience and enjoy themselves at nursery. The meals are varied and nutritional, activities are fun and the children really learn while they are there. My child gets really excited about the calendar of events too, where they can do a range of activities and crafts. Finally, I think the whole team have responded tremendously to the challenges of the last year. Navigating these challenges and supporting parents through them, whilst making sure there is minimal disruption and no anxiety for the children is wonderful! Highly recommended nursery.

March 30, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Busy Bees in Cheadle Kingsway since March 2020 and we have been nothing but impressed with the standard of care and management of the nursery. Starting nursery during a global pandemic hasn’t been easy but we have been pleased with all the measures put in place and pleasantly surprised at the lack of disruption. My daughter absolutely loves attending, she has built up great relationships with all of the staff in her room and formed some good friendships , something that’s more important than ever now that she can’t meet up with other children outside of nursery. Her development has come on leaps and bounds from speech and communication through to social development, as well as skills around eating and feeding herself. I’m delighted with the nursery and would recommend to others.

May 11, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son has accessed the nursery since he was seven months old, supporting my return to work. The staff were welcoming and child centred, ensuring he had an effective transition. Within his first few years I was invited to parent evenings and was updated on progress. Handover was never rushed and the team were accommodating and friendly. The team were forthcoming with information around any accidents or concerns. Working in child social care myself I can see robust and effective processes are in place. He was able to transition to the toddler room with ease and has been able to form effective relations with staff and his young peers. The app has proved beneficial to see observations and pictures. This could be explained further to see meals, however this information is always shared at handover. His key workers are present and involved and he talks about them regularly! A positive influence! I am grateful to have accessed this nursery whilst continuing to work.

May 11, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter absolutely loves going to nursery. The girls are so kind, friendly and really care about the children. My daughter has come on so well since attending and I really put that down to the level of care she receives here.

May 12, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended the baby room since September 2020 after a natural settling in period, it is clear to see her strong relationships with the baby room staff which is reassuring to see. My main concern at the beginning was how her allergies would be handled but the staff and cook included have been beyond amazing through the process of me finding my way around my daughters allergies. She is well looked after and enjoys the activities that take place in the baby room to improve her overall development.

November 1, 2021 at 12:00 amIn the short amount of time my daughter has been at nursery, I have got the impression that the staff and her main carers have made a great effort to get to know her. I feel very comfortable and confident leaving her with staff and I can tell she is happy there. I have appreciated the continuity of my child having a main carer. We love receiving pictures and updates through the app but would love to know even more about what she’s been up to. I’m very happy overall so far!

January 25, 2022 at 12:00 amI am absolutely delighted with my experience of Busy Bees and I feel very lucky to have found this nursery. My son started just before turning one and had very bad separation anxiety but the staff were amazing and he quickly grew to love it there. I can tell they have all taken the time to get to know him and I feel completely safe leaving him in their care. They seem to have a great mix of activities and the menu is great. Would highly recommend it!

July 10, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little boy has attended Busy Bees since 11 months old. He is now almost 5 and ready to start school. He attended two other Busy Bees settings and I have always felt he is completely safe and cared for and his development and growth have been important to staff. He has loved his time at Busy Bees and I am so glad I chose for him to attend here over other nurseries. He has developed great bonds with staff and is now completely prepared for starting school in September. I highly recommend Busy Bees and my little boy has loved his time there. I have nothing negative to say at all.
