    He had a fantastic time and he often still talks about ‘His’ childcare centre. The team were very well‑informed, attentive, compassionate and welcoming. The childcare centre offered a variety of events (very keenly remember the Christmas period!), the setting is stimulating and there ould consistently would be someone available for the kids to have a cuddle should they need one. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre to any parent that is looking for the perfect place for their kids, the only regret they could have is not to try it! Lovely people and lovely place! My son has been at Busy Bee Clare Park in the green room for all of last year.

    They monitor and review the kids to ensure their every need is met, as well as providing a enjoyable and secure setting for them to grow. Busy Bees at Clare Park, have the most attentive and reliable team.

    The team are all so incredibly inviting, attentive and supportive. Our son does so many varied activities, including lots of messy playtime and painting which means I don’t have to do this at home! The feedback at the end of the day is really useful and the food provided by the onsite chef is healthy and clearly delicious, as our end of day report almost consistently says: ‘Ate all.’
    As someone who works in education, I also like the fact that they are so open. Every parent has a key fob so you can enter the building and walk straight into your kid’s room. I have never heard a raised voice from a member of team and their genuine affection for the kids is obvious. The manager and her team are also very hands-on and cheerful to help with any queries that arise.
    Our son has blossomed since he has been there and I look forward to seeing his continued development in the next year. Thank you Busy Bees! I cannot suggest Busy Bees at Clare Park enough.

    Our kids have been extremely well looked after in the two rooms she has already been looked after in. The team are highly trained; engaged with the kids and parents and offer outstanding knowledge and care to the kids. Key workers are chosen based on the best possible relationships with the kids. The childcare centre team and management go above and beyond in arranging out of hours events to celebrate festivals and charities as well as observing festivals and themed weeks in the rooms. The financial administrator goes above and beyond certainly my expectation to provide information to parents and the kids are provided with exceptional healthy on-site cooked food. We couldn’t be happier with the service. This childcare centre is a inviting, lively community-based place.

    He was so prepared for school, thanks to all the care and assistance from the team at busy bees. The team were also very supportive with strategies to help with behaviour at home.

    My youngest son is currently in the toddler room. He goes in willingly every day and consistently has a smile on his face when I pick him up.

    I would thoroughly suggest this Busy Bees to everyone! My eldest son left last year to start primary school.

    Cannot suggest enough, we have never had any concerns and our son loves it so much that when he has to have a day off due to illness, he cries as he wants to go. All the team are fabulous and it’s just a excellent setting. Our son has been coming here since he was 10 months (he’s now nearly 4) and his baby sister will be joining in March.

    From day one, in the ‘baby room’ to their last in Preschool, they enjoyed every second, making friends and discovering key skills that they’ve now taken to their new school.
    Without a doubt, this was all down to the team who were all very great with our kids. If we were to consider having more kids, there would be no hesitation in using the services Clare Park has to offer again. When my wife and I had our two twins, we were worried about me having to work full time and my wife having to return to work after her maternity leave.
    We looked far and wide for a childcare centre that could offer our kids the best possible start in life and in Clare Park, we found it.
    Over the last 3 and a half years, our kids spent a couple of days a week under the outstanding care and assistance of the ladies in Busy Bees.

    Team are consistently welcoming, approachable and we have been kept informed of development throughout their time there. The same nurturing setting is complemented by a variety of activities and clear updates and organisation. We shall miss them. Our girls have thrived at Busy Bees, the care and assistance we have had has been excellent.

    The childcare centre team were constantly improving and bring new ideas to the kids’s care. Can’t thank the team enough their hard work and care for my daughter. My daughter was at Clare Park for just over three years and the level of care she received was outstanding.

    Team are lovely consistently welcoming, great food and outside area. Lovely childcare centre, he enjoys going, he consistently comes out very cheerful.

    It’s a relief to know my daughter is cheerful with the people she is with as it’s not a nice thing to have to leave your kid with others when they are still small anyway so this definitely helps. She is very energetic and loves being outside so I’m glad she has the opportunity to go outside as much as she does. The food also seems great from what I have had of it! I think the team at Busy Bees Clare Park are remarkable and have a excellent relationship with the kids.

    The team are lovely and attentive and we are consistently greeted with a smile. Thank you for looking after my girls so wonderfully. We appreciate it and they have both benefited hugely from attending Busy Bees. Keep up the excellent work! Both of my daughters have attended Busy Bees at Clare Park from the age of 11 months, and both had a lovely journey throughout.

    My husband and I were unsure about sending her to childcare centre at such a young age (11 months) but it was the best decision we have made. She is a confident little girl who is making friends. The care she receives is second to none and I know that when she is there she is having the time of her life. With everything that is currently going on in the world meaning that she is not able to see many people or journey new things, Busy Bees allows her to explore and learn so much. The updates is outstanding, especially the portal where I am able to see regular updates on her activities and even photos. I have no doubt in my mind that she will be cheerful going to Busy Bees at Clare Park until she starts school. My daughter absolutely loves going to Busy Bees.

    The manager and her team are so expert and really care about the kids. Both my kids went there and adore it. Even though my son had additional needs, they happily accommodated them and made him part of the group. I can’t suggest Busy Bees enough.

    Working in education myself it’s sometimes hard to find somewhere you can trust but the team are so expert, knowledgable and welcoming that I couldn’t take my little boy anywhere else now. He absolutely loves his days at childcare centre as they squeeze in so many excellent activities and it’s excellent that the team share these memories via the parentzone app. Couldn’t suggest them more! Busy Bees is a remarkable childcare centre!

    The team are consistently lovely and nothing is too much trouble. My daughter really enjoys her time here and she has made strong bonds with a number of team members, which as a parent, is lovely to see. I cannot suggest them enough. Thank you. I have consistently been very cheerful with the childcare centre ever since my daughter first started nearly a year ago.

    We had our concerns of how this would affect our daughter but from her first day she was settled and she was fond of all the team that looked after her and from the feedback from her and what we saw ourselves she couldn’t have been happier and at the end of the day that was the most important thing for us. We had to change our kid from another childcare centre because of moving home.

    We now have both our toddler and baby here and adore it. They are cheerful and thriving. One thing in particular I recently discovered is that siblings often spend together in the day and have tea together. This was not something we’d have even thought of when looking as we only had the one kid but an example of the childcare centre keeping the kids at the centre of everything they do. Despite this being a ‘chain’ childcare centre the team here are remarkable and it very much has a family sense.

    Our twins attended this fantastic childcare centre for 3 years from the age of 1 year to 4 years old.
    The whole team at Clare Park were supportive, attentive and expert every step of the way.
    Both our kids enjoyed their time at Clare Park and we would definitely suggest it to new parents.

    Our son took some time to settle in but the carers all were incredible with me as a parent very reassuring and our son. He now loves it at the childcare centre.
    Thanks Busy Bees team. We would suggest Busy Bees to friends and family.
