September 10, 2024 at 1:10 pmManagement are attentive and attentive towards any specific needs and the chef creates some lovely well balanced meals. My grandson attends full time and everyday he comes away beaming having had a enjoyable filled day with all his friends and educators.

October 17, 2024 at 1:06 pmThe managers and team are lovely and consistently have smiles on their faces. They are highly attentive and consistently give a report at the end of a session.
There are consistently a variety of toys and activities set out which help the kids to develop and be cheerful.
The food is highly great and is cooked fresh daily.
This is a exceptional childcare centre and I’m glad that my daughter goes here. My daughter has settled highly well into childcare centre.

October 20, 2024 at 9:13 amThe childcare centre manager was so supportive, and a place was found for him immediately.
My son was apprehensive due to the sudden change in a childcare setting, but the team were highly welcoming and helped him to settle in quickly. Within a few weeks, it felt like he’d consistently been at Busy Bees.
Since then, my son has had soo many positive experiences at Busy Bees. The team truly work hard to get to know the kids and their individual interests. The daily activities are well-planned and tailored to the kid. The team show genuine care and compassion.
My son starts school in September. He has loved his time at Busy Bees. As a parent, it has been highly reassuring to leave him each morning, knowing that he is cheerful and well cared for.
I would highly suggest Busy Bees. I contacted the childcare centre after my son’s childcare centre closed overnight, leaving him with no childcare.

November 26, 2024 at 9:11 pmBoth settle exceptionally quickly, clearly delight in their time there and look forward to going back. Team are attentive to their needs, especially with medical issues/allergies.
I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest this childcare centre to my friends and family. Fabulous setting – both of my kids have attended since they were 13 months old.

December 9, 2024 at 6:48 pmMy son amazes me every week he comes come and has learnt something new and also had enjoyable, which is what it’s all about. I consistently suggest this childcare centre to all my friends worried about putting their kids in childcare centre, the team go above and beyond to make you and your kid or kids to sense comfortable and cheerful.

December 26, 2024 at 9:58 amHer development and self‑assurance has grown so much since starting this year and as a family sense she has settled highly well. My daughter is in the baby room Willows and I’m highly cheerful with the way she is looked after by the team.

February 24, 2025 at 2:07 pmThe team have worked so hard recently with the pandemic. All the team have consistently been cheerful and greet us with a smile every day even with the ongoing challenges they have faced. The special events Busy Bees have continued to arrange for the kids are lovely. If I ever have a question its consistently dealt with quickly. My son is treated like a little star and it makes me sense cheerful and secure to leave him there with the team who truly do give their all. I will be so sad when September arrives and we will miss the Busy Bees family x keep up the outstanding work and I hope you are all recognised for all you did to keep our kids in care in recent times. My son is in preschool and he completely loves it.

March 2, 2025 at 10:29 amAt meal times they have him on a 1-1 basis so that he can’t get access to any food to which he is allergic to. He was highly unsure at childcare centre to begin with but the team within his room have helped make him settle though playtime and attention whilst providing a positive discovering and social setting for him to be in. The team have been exceptional with my son who has severe allergies both through consumption and touch and they have gone above and beyond to make sure he is in a secure and spotless setting.

March 3, 2025 at 6:06 pmI cannot suggest it highly enough. The team are incredible: they consistently seem as excited to see my little girl as she is to see them. My daughter races into childcare centre every day and I have no guilt leaving her there as I know she is cheerful to go.
During her settling in period when she was a bit tearful, they handled us with excellent care and understanding. They do loads of art and her clothes are never ruined! They take care of her belongings. Nappies are included in the price so I don’t have to worry about providing them. She loves the food and she’s developed using cutlery truly early which I believe is because they encourage this at the childcare centre. Tricky issues are handled with tact and discretion. The management are unbelievably flexible, supportive and organised. This is the 4th childcare centre I have used (as I have 2 elder kids) and it is the place that I have been happiest with. There is just a lovely, cheerful vibe as soon as you walk through the door. My daughter has been at Busy Bees at Preston Hospital for almost a year now.

March 10, 2025 at 3:38 amI would highly suggest it. The team are all truly inviting and attentive and genuinely interested in the kids. One of my girls has food allergies and they have consistently been highly thorough and made me sense confident in their approach to safety. This is a lovely childcare centre with excellent facilities and super team.

March 20, 2025 at 1:01 amI can’t ask for a better start.
She enjoys it so much every day. And I sense so comfortable leaving her every morning in the childcare centre. Because I know if something happens, straight away the childcare centre contacts us.
All the team is so welcoming and speak with every parent like a big family group. It is incredible.
Thanks so much, Busy Bees for these four years of journey. My daughter frequented this childcare centre from 8 months old until now, 4 years old.

April 28, 2025 at 2:44 pmI cannot suggest this childcare centre highly enough. The team are highly welcoming. Whether it is team who are currently working with my eldest, ones from his previous rooms or new team, they all acknowledge him by name and take the time to interact with my youngest.
My eldest has had special dietary requirements due to allergies and the childcare centre are exceedingly accommodating of this, asking for guidance and advice where appropriate and sharing their knowledge too, particularly the chef.
They ensure where possible that my son is not excluded from any activity, as a result of his allergies, altering cookery tasks to ensure he can taste the results of his efforts.
Even though each kid has a dedicated key worker, the team all have a great understanding of the daily events and each kid’s needs and I find that I can speak to any of them about how my son is doing and any concerns I may have. My eldest kid has been attending for over two years and my youngest is just about to start.

Management team and all the team highly approachable. Well done xx Excellent childcare centre.

June 4, 2025 at 12:43 pmMy son has brought home pictures, crafts, and images of the enjoyable he had had in childcare centre. He told me about each day and the enjoyable times he experienced with his friends and educators. He continues to delight in his full-time place in childcare centre and cannot wait to move up to pre-school in September.
The educators went out of their way, each day and week over Christmas to make each kid sense special, we also loved our Christmas gift from Santa. Thank you. Throughout the December period, I was truly impressed with the number of activities and enjoyable experiences my kid was involved in.

June 25, 2025 at 3:41 amMy little boy is now in preschool and has attended since 2018. He loves it, has lots of friends and positive experiences. We can see him changing all of the time. He is confident and cheerful. The team work hard to truly know him, what works for him and what he struggles with. They readily accommodate these and work closely with us to achieve the best outcome for him. We will miss childcare centre and all of the lovely team in September, when it is time for school! Thank you to everyone who has helped to develop my little boy and make him into the delightful, insightful and clever kid he is. Absolutely outstanding childcare centre.

July 4, 2025 at 6:45 pmThe care she receives is exceptional. Varied activities that are enjoyable and educational. The team are all incredible and have worked so hard during the pandemic, nothing is too much trouble. We are kept up to date with my daughter’s development and what she has been doing each day, via an app that includes photos and observations. My daughter loves coming to childcare centre. Highly recommended this childcare centre. My daughter has been attending this childcare centre for the last 2 years.
