January 10, 2022 at 12:00 amWhen my daughter first started nursery at six months I was understanding, very anxious about leaving her. Everyone at Edwalton Busy Bees was so caring and understood my feeling and made me feel confident that my daughter would be fine. And she is absolutely fine and loves coming to nursery. Parentzone is so helpful and I love seeing new posts of her having a great time, smiling and babbling away. Busy Bees is like a second home to my daughter and all the team are like an extended family.

April 4, 2022 at 12:00 amA beautiful centre which looks better each time we are sent photos of our child’s base room and we can see from activities and outside photos and videos which are shared regularly.
Our child has settled amazingly and is always happy when we drop them off and happy to tell us about their day when we collect. The staff team are all amazing and so dedicated and passionate about what they do. I highly recommend this centre, for your child care needs.

April 28, 2022 at 12:00 amAmazing nursery! Since my little girl has started Busy Bees Edwalton her speech and communication skills here came on so well! I have updates via the app throughout her time there and they also send me pictures of her which is so reassuring as a parent, seeing my little girl happy. They give me detailed feedback every time I pick her up, I can not fault this nursery! So excited to see my little girl excel in the future with the help of Busy Bees.

April 28, 2022 at 12:00 amWe are extremely happy with how Busy Bees Edwalton is run. From day one all staff have been very friendly and accommodating. Child care and activities have been tailored to our child’s needs, who is very happy to be there. They are really there for us and go out of their way to support us as parents. The nursery setting and outdoor area are outstanding and the fee is the same as any small nursery in the area which means great value for our money. Staff are well trained and empathetic! All in all we would recommend Busy Bees Edwalton 100%

April 28, 2022 at 12:00 amBusy Bees Edwalton is an amazing setting. My son has been here for a little while now and in that time he has come on in leaps and bounds! He enjoys going so much and seeing all the team, when I pick him up he cannot wait to tell me all about his fun-filled day! I love that this nursery doesn’t make you feel like your child is a number and you can tell they genuinely care so much for the children. I can’t fault the team enough nothing is too much trouble. Thank you all so much! p.s. the new facilities are amazing.

April 28, 2022 at 12:00 amThe staff were so welcoming and informative when my child started at Busy Bees Edwalton. Since he has been there he has loved it! He gets so excited when we pull up outside. They ensure the days are filled with exciting activities with some wonderful learning opportunities. We are also constantly kept in the loop with nappy changes, meals (of which he eats it all!), sleeps and photos of what he is up to. They also identify progress that the child is making. Fantastic! Would 100% recommend.

August 8, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Busy Bees just over a month and I’m beyond thrilled at how easy it has been with transitioning her from another different nursery. I had my daughter during a pandemic, where she was solely with us as a family, so she’s always been a little reserved. The settling in days were an absolutely god-send and each one she waddled off and independently played, whilst showing off all of the Montessori toys to the staff members there – she didn’t even notice I had left! The app has given me a lot of confidence; I am able to see her feeding, sleep and daily activities she does throughout the day, which as you can imagine brings huge peace of mind to my working day. The staff have made my daughter feel comfortable and welcomed, all of which enthuse a kind and warming nature. They are attentive and encouraging, and I’m excited for my daughters future here at Edwalton. Forever grateful that she is the best version of herself in the very best care.

August 31, 2022 at 12:00 amWhen I had concerns about my daughter’s behaviour and repetitive patterns, I noticed, that I raised my concerns to the nursery. They were very supportive and agreed to monitor how she was and give feedback.

September 16, 2022 at 12:00 amA calm, peaceful yet exciting atmosphere. A highlight of Busy Bees, Edwalton for me is the utmost cleanliness throughout, everything is so neat and adequately arranged for the different age brackets of children. All the staff are happy and again neat, clean presentation. I adore this nursery and highly recommend to all parents who want the best setting in the local area! Beats surrounding nurseries by a mile!

October 26, 2022 at 12:00 amI do not have enough praise for the staff at this nursery. We have just moved to the area and have a child with an allergy. They have made the transition smooth and reassured us at every step. Our boy loves this nursery and thoroughly enjoys his time there. Would recommend to anyone.

April 4, 2023 at 12:00 amSimply, I can’t rate this nursery highly enough. The facilities are all brand new and there are such a large and varied range of toys, learning tools etc for the children to play with, along with a lovely safe outdoor space. The staff are amazing and take so much time creating lovely spaces in the theme of my daughter’s favourite things, which helps her settle in and thoroughly enjoy her day. They also take so much interest in the little trips we do and ask for pictures to put up in the room to show and tell afterwards which is a lovely touch. We receive regular updates throughout the day which show just how much fun she is having, dancing, playing with homemade playdoh, painting and water toys, the list is endless. Being able to leave your child and know they’re in the best care is all that you can ask for and we completely have that here at Busy Bees. We genuinely couldn’t ask for any more in a nursery and would recommend it to anyone.

June 9, 2023 at 12:00 amAll the staff at Busy Bees Edwalton Day Nursery have really helped my son settle into nursery. He gets the opportunity to try a variety of foods and play with many different toys which are both stimulating and educational.
The app keeps us up to date with is progress and activity throughout the day which is useful. We couldn’t be happier with how he has developed since starting nursery.

June 23, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been at Busy Bees, Edwalton since July 2022. I was really nervous leaving my son with basically strangers, but I can honestly say the team at Busy Bees, Edwalton are truly amazing! We did the settling sessions which we both loved to the point where my son cried when we had to leave which made me feel confident that this was the right nursery.
On my son’s first session by himself the care director called me to let me know my son was fine and doing well which meant a lot as it settled my nerves, thats when I knew she cared and put herself in my shoes from a parent’s view.
They also keep you updated throughout the day via the app so it gives you peace of mind that your child is okay.
My son absolutely loves this nursery and it’s a shame he will be leaving to attend school.
I would 1000% recommend this nursery and I can honestly say they truly care and it shows!
(I will be back if we have baby #2)

August 7, 2023 at 12:00 amAmazing, fantastic and brilliant! As a first-time mum, when I was returning to work and registering my daughter at a nursery, I naturally felt nervous – all of that went away within two minutes of meeting the centre director. The nursery itself is very clean, welcoming and lovely. You can tell the facility is respected and loved by staff, parents and children alike. The whole team are friendly and really gets to know you as a parent/carer aswell as your child. My daughter loves it here, and when we arrive outside, she starts dancing with excitement, and I know she will be safe and happy all day which is a huge comfort. The staff ensure that all children are having fun and learning throughout the day. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting here. The variety of food she has throughout the day is great too. We are so happy we chose this nursery. Thank you to all the staff for making us feel so welcome.
