    She loves going into childcare centre and comes home truly cheerful. She has developed excellent bonds with the team which is excellent to see. The range of activities and meals they provide is a real benefit and the generous outdoor area is an extra bonus too! My youngest daughter has been attending Busy Bees for the past year and we have had such a positive journey.

    I am truly cheerful with his overall development. He is consistently cheerful to go to daycare at Busy Bees in Portishead. I adore how cheerful he is at the end of the day when I pick him up. Even at times he did not want to go home because he delight in it so much! I definitely suggest my friends and family to find out more about Busy Bees. Their management is highly well organised, communicate well with parents/guardians, outstanding safeguarding as well (I remember the childcare centre called to double-check when my parents-in-law went to collect my son). My son first joint last year when he was 2-years-old.

    They do a remarkable job and I consistently sense cheerful leaving my kids there. They teach them so much as well as consistently doing enjoyable activities! Highly suggest. The thing I adore most about Busy Bees is the lovely attentive people that work there.

    The girls have been exceptionally attentive and catering for both my son and us as parents.
    He enjoys coming into childcare centre and it’s excellent to be able to leave him knowing that he’s being well looked after. My son has attended the childcare centre since he was 6 months old!

    For example, making sure they quickly get her headphones if the room gets too noisy for her, as well as understanding she likes her space and independence. The team are also consistently welcoming and smiley when we arrive. My daughter has a great relationship with the team and is consistently excited to see them. Busy Bees childcare centre have been excellent with my daughter and have been highly patient and understanding with her needs.

    The team are consistently inviting and polite and truly seem to care. They have excellent facilities with plenty of outdoor time and classrooms that are well-appointed and kept. I cannot suggest them enough! Busy Bees is a remarkable childcare centre, our son has loved every day there and is consistently cheerful at drop off and pick up.

    I have both my kids there and they adore it.
    The way they have handled the COVID crisis has been outstanding, while other nurseries haven’t kept parents up to date Busy Bees have. The way they have managed the return and the measures in place has been terrific. The flexibility and understanding towards parents is second to none, no retainer fees or minimum days/dates to return by unlike others.
    They have such a varied menu with an onsite chef, which is a excellent benefit. Regular feedback and consultation with parents on future menus too.
    Highly suggest the team at Busy Bees. The team at Busy Bees are incredible, the investment seen in the facilities, rooms, gardens and equipment in recent months has been so excellent to see.
    Actively listen to parents and involve them in their plans, seeking feedback and ways to improve.

    The girls have been excellent and we’re so so accommodating for us during lockdown and the change of days and hours. I have no bother leaving her and they’ve listened to my needs. Thank you! I would suggest Busy Bees Portishead definitely. My daughter settled before lockdown and has re-settled in this week.

    Every morning, when he wakes up, even if it is weekend, he asks if he can go to childcare centre! We are highly pleased with the team and setting! Highly recommended! Our 2 and a half-year-old son is enjoying his days in Busy Bees in Portishead!

    My little girl’s updates has thrived since being here and she has excellent social skills. My daughter truly enjoys her time here and doesn’t want to leave at home time. I would suggest this childcare centre to anyone who wants a home from home setting for their kid. My daughter has been attending Busy Bees in Portishead since she was 5-months-old and I have nothing but positive praise for the team in the Baby Room.

    The team are excellent at communicating and making me sense relaxed when dropping her off. I receive great updates about how her day has been and what she has done during the day. Even when she had settling in days, the team were all highly nice and her key worker is excellent! Would definitely suggest this childcare centre! My daughter has only been at the childcare centre for 1 week but it feels like longer.

    The administration team and Office team are absolutely shocking, constantly not receiving receipts, 2 payments not being receipted onto my account, overpayments by mistake and incorrect invoices. The financial admin team are ruining it for everyone. I have a parents social media group, and it has happened to 4 of us in the last 3 months. Never again. I would not suggest this Childcare centre if you work full time and pay for your childcare.

    She took some time to settle as she had only ever been home with me but the team were so supportive to both of us. Now she runs in without looking back. I can’t suggest this childcare centre enough. All the team are so approachable, compassionate and the feedback is consistently available on pick up, which to me is so important. My daughter absolutely loves Busy Bees in Portishead.

    It’s obvious that the kids’s happiness and well being is put first. The team are incredible. Ever since my daughter started, she has loved it. Even after lockdown, after nearly 70 days away, she rushed in happily, glad to be back and came out smiling, full of news. She’s there for another year before she starts school, and I couldn’t be happier. Busy Bees is an incredible childcare centre and I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest it to anyone.

    My son started there when he was nine months and continues to attend their pre-school. The level of care is consistently outstanding with evidence of thought and time going into each planned activity. All the team I have met with have been highly approachable and provide an honest and timely feedback. It is a huge comfort and relief to know how cheerful and well looked after my kid is whilst we are working. I have nothing other than positive things to say about Busy Bees in Portishead.

    I have recommended this childcare centre to several friends and family, and they too have had a positive journey with the childcare centre. All of the team are so welcoming and welcoming, my son loves the members of team in his room and consistently has a excellent time. My son enjoys all of the activities that the childcare centre has to offer, along with the excellent outdoor space. There is consistently so much going on every day and he is consistently discovering something new. I truly sense Busy Bees has been a excellent journey for my son’s development. My son will soon be moving up to pre-school and I sense this will give him a remarkable start in preparing him for when he starts primary school. Busy Bees Portishead is a remarkable childcare centre.

    I am confident that they are in a secure, stimulating setting with remarkable team that genuinely care about the kids that they are looking after. Both of my kids have attended Busy Bees from 12 months old and truly delight in it.

    She has recently transitioned from the baby to the toddler’s room, and under the current circumstances, they have made it as smooth as possible.
    The updates during lockdown was incredible, especially as a key worker who still required childcare. Regular updates about how they were operating, and what capacity they were running at was truly appreciated and helped put our mind at ease during an already stressful period.
    I could not suggest this childcare centre enough. Our daughter loves her time at Childcare centre.

    The manager and team have worked so hard to get things back to as ‘normal’ as they can for the kids whilst adhering to the COVID measures.
    The team are all so welcoming and the kids adore them. I can go to work each day, knowing my girls are in secure hands and absolutely adore it there.
    Highly suggest Busy Bees. Highly suggest Busy Bees as a childcare centre, the way they handled the closure and reopening of the childcare centre and the updates and flexibility with parents has been incredible.

    I truly had nothing to worry about with Busy Bees. Every need my daughter has, has been accommodated…special chairs/table, special shoes, glasses, eye patches…the team even take time out to train with my daughter physio.
    Not only are they incredible with my daughter’s additional needs but they terrific at keeping me updated with how she’s been doing developmentally. They share photos, paintings etc… they are consistently doing new and exciting things.
    The team at Busy Bees also care about me. Nothing I have asked has ever been too much trouble, in fact there are times when they go out of their way to help and assistance me. Sending messages in their own time, showing assistance and care.
    Most of all though, my daughter is genuinely loved. Her key worker is affectionate and loving towards her and my daughter loves her too. I was nervous about my daughter going to childcare centre as she has cerebral palsy and I just wasn’t sure how her needs would be met.
