September 29, 2020 at 12:00 amMy experience of Busy Bees at Brooke Street has been excellent. My daughter has been coming since she was 10 months old and always skips into nursery with a huge smile on her face. The staff are extremely helpful and kind, nothing is too much trouble for them. The flexible hours option has been excellent for us and very helpful with mine and my partners shift work. The facilities and activities the nursery provides are excellent also. Overall my experience with Busy Bees at Brooke Street has been very enjoyable and stress free.

September 30, 2020 at 12:00 amMy daughter started nursery this August just after the COVID-19 outbreak, and throughout registration of the nursery, we were put at ease for our daughter starting. She has settled in really well and enjoys her days within Brooke Street. We originally were only going to enrol a few days a week, but have now increased to four as she loves it that much. The staff within the Baby room are so attentive, calm and reassuring and our daughter goes in with open arms in a morning. Her day is always fed back on pick up and the staff are so informative of her daily activities and fun play. The manager and admin are always on hand and have smiles on their faces at all times of the day. We monitor the I-Connect system where we can see her daily food, and activities and she looks like she is having a blast. The different meals our daughter receives is also a blessing, as she has helped support her through the weaning stages. Great first term within Busy Bees.

November 3, 2020 at 12:00 amWe started our little boy here at the beginning of October as I was going back to full-time work. We were very dubious as he has always had separation issues. But he has had a few cries, but the staff have always managed to distract and keep him busy. The center Manager is very helpful and has been able to answer all our questions and concerns we’ve had. The staff in the baby room where our little boy is, are all absolutely lovely and keep us updated regarding any issues with him. We would highly recommend Busy Bees at Brooke Street.

November 11, 2020 at 12:00 amBusy Bees at Brooke Street Chorley is a lovely, friendly nursery, and we have always felt that our little boy is safe and cared for here. The daily activities are varied and keep them entertained and making developmental progress. As a parent, it is hard to leave your little treasure in the hands of people that you don’t really know and feel comfortable with it. However, the staff at this nursery quickly feel like friends and have made us feel at ease in asking as many questions as we need to, and getting full updates at the end of every day to ensure that we know exactly what has been going on that day. The parent zone app is updated regularly so we can keep up with how he is getting on throughout the day. The staff really get to know the children and the parents and the care received is really personalised. The food is varied and healthy, the building is purpose-built and super clean. We would thoroughly recommend this nursery!

May 10, 2021 at 12:00 amAs first time parents we were apprehensive at first about sending our son to nursery, however, Busy Bees at Brooke Street have made the entire process really smooth, reassuring and we feel totally confident that our son enjoys his time at nursery. He has developed so quickly and genuinely looks forward to everyday he goes!

May 10, 2021 at 12:00 amOur experience at Busy Bees at Brooke Street has been fantastic, my daughter started in September 2020 and has loved every minute. The nursery do very well with reporting to parents what activities and meals our children have done and had throughout the day. I contacted nursery about my child having Autism and they have been amazing with the process regarding helping and arranging extra help for my daughter. I am extremely grateful for this and it goes to show how much they care for the children they look after. The staff in themselves are fantastic, always helpful, always smiling, very approachable and make every process throughout nursery easy and helpful, making me very happy to leave my child with them due to the level of trust they have shown.

May 10, 2021 at 12:00 amThe staff are nothing but amazing, from workers in the rooms to management, I was extremely anxious about my daughter starting nursery and they reassured me in every area I was concerned with. They are all over her development and making sure she is happy, safe and learning. She fits right in and they are happy to take my calls when I’m worrying, updating me via the app with what she’s doing and involving me in her nursery development. I’m overall really happy with the choice I made.

May 10, 2021 at 12:00 amWe have two daughters who attend Busy Bees at Brooke Street. They love being at nursery and look forward to their days there. They attend three full days a week. We love the updates and the pictures that we receive on the app. It is great to see that they are having fun whilst we are working. All the staff are so caring with our girls and this is evident with how settled they are. When my eldest is asked who her friends are at nursery she also names the staff which I think is lovely. Thank you for all that you do.

May 17, 2021 at 12:00 amWe genuinely couldn’t be happier with Busy Bees. Picking a nursery for your child is a big responsibility but we comment on how happy we are with our choice almost every day after collecting our child.
The best indicator is that my child loves going to nursery. I am in absolutely no doubt that the nursery and the team members in my child’s room know my child very well and that they have taken the time to get to know them and their individual likes/dislikes. The team are absolutely wonderful – always smiling, genuinely happy to see the children and always take the time to have a chat with parents.
The activities are brilliant – there are fun theme weeks, plenty of outdoors time, physical activities and messy play. Food is healthy and well varied. Any feedback I have given has always been very quickly acted upon (ie. please can I see more frequent photos of my child on the app). It’s the best of both – the backing of a large chain with the personal touch of the Chorley centre staff.

May 17, 2021 at 12:00 amMy boys have been going since they were 12 months and soon to be 5 years. So that shows how good the childcare is. They have supported all my children’s needs and will continue on school holidays when they start school in September.

May 24, 2021 at 12:00 amMy children got a place here during the first lockdown when our nursery closed. I have always said I am glad this happened and I wish I had have changed sooner! Both kids settled extremely well. All the staff were warm, welcoming and so caring. My son spent the last few months here before he started school and his confidence grew immensely. My daughter is still at nursery and absolutely loves it. She is thriving and every day is different for her. She eats so well here and often says at the weekends can I go to my nursery.

September 6, 2021 at 12:00 amThe best decision we’ve made putting our son in the nursery. He has massively progressed in so many different skills. The staff are so lovely and friendly. They go above and beyond to provide the right nutrition for my son even when he has a few allergies which give us peace of mind. The regular updates on the app are brilliant as you get to see pictures of activities they’ve done. Thank you so much Busy Bees.

February 25, 2022 at 12:00 amMy 2-year-old son has been attending Busy Bees Brooke Street Chorley for 2 months and stays for 3-morning sessions a week. He has settled in so quickly, he absolutely loves ‘nursery day’ and always comes running out with the biggest smile on his face. Staff are so attentive and regularly update the app with activities he has been doing alongside photographs, mealtimes and nappy changes which are reassuring for me when I’m at work. I’m so pleased that we chose this nursery for our little boy, the facilities are superb and the setting is very safe. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

April 25, 2022 at 12:00 amThe best experience for both me and my toddler. I wasn’t worried about her starting because the staff were so friendly and caring. My daughter was a lockdown baby and we knew she needed socialising and this was the right choice for us all. The staff keep me updated with the app so I can plan her meals for the evening, and anything we might be planning for the weekend can be related which makes her learning experiences so much stronger. She’s started saying a few words now and is becoming more confident and her personality has bloomed. People told me that choosing a nursery would be hard but we just knew straight away that Busy Bees Brooke Street was the right place. My daughter has settled so well. I know any future siblings will be coming here too because of how good it is.

April 25, 2022 at 12:00 amBusy Bees is a fantastic nursery for children. The staff go above and beyond for your child as well as the parents/carers of the children that attend. I cannot fault the nursery in any way! My son loves it here. They’ve made him feel so relaxed and so happy. The nursery rooms are absolutely great, full of toys and full of learning resources, it’s a happy, safe and chilled environment.

April 27, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son started at Busy bees (Chorley Brooke street) earlier in the year and I can not recommend the nursery enough. They have been so welcoming and accommodating to our needs – always go out of their way to make me feel confident my son’s food allergies are catered to safely, including when the children got Easter treats, the girls in his room went out especially to get him specific free from treats!
They really take an interest in him and his needs and interests, so they can incorporate that into his days. The staff are all so friendly and lovely, I feel so comfortable leaving my son there, he has settled in so well and you can tell he really enjoys his time there.

May 13, 2022 at 12:00 amBusy Bees have been amazing with both of my children and I am extremely sad that in July I will be saying goodbye, after seven years, as my youngest goes to school. The staff consistently go over and above, every day. They are approachable and always put the children first.

June 8, 2022 at 12:00 amI am so happy I made the choice to place my little boy at Busy Bees, Brooke Street. The staff are amazing and he’s come on leaps and bounds whilst being there. I really like the app and I can see what he’s been eating, his activities and his sleep during the day. The staff always keep me informed. It’s a little on the expensive side, but all his meals are covered and are healthy and well balanced, plus he does all sorts of activities each day. I would 100% recommend Busy Bees in Chorley.

June 20, 2023 at 12:00 amEvery time I drop my daughter off at nursery I am instantly reassured that she is in good hands, all staff are so lovely and amazing at what they do. My daughter always comes home and tells me and her grandparents how much she has enjoyed school and tells us what she has done.

July 7, 2023 at 12:00 amMy child is so happy and settled at nursery. There’s a lovely family vibe. All of the staff are excellent at keeping me up to date with my child’s progress and what they’ve done in a day. They are providing lots of support for his transition to school and my child says the food is amazing.
