Busy Bees Hartham Park

Our son has been going to Busy Bees at Harham Park for over 6 months now and we cannot be more happy with the experience. All the staff are so lovely and welcoming with our son who is very happy to go to any of the staff, especially his key person.
His development has come on leaps and bounds and he now runs to the door every morning. We also really like the report we get at the end of each day, updating us on what our son has eaten, slept and played with.
Would highly recommend this nursery.

We fell that people at the nursery not only do their work well and very professionally, but they really care about the well-being of the children.

Generally fantastic. Very happy with everything presented and offered and the overall approach to growth and learning. Could do more with balance and circus skills!

My daughter has been attending this nursery for a couple of years now. She loves it there, loves the staff and other children and she has progressed so well since attending. She is independent and confident and that is down to the support and care received at Busy Bees. I am always confident that she is well cared for and the staff generally care for the children on a personal level.

My son loves the time he spends at nursery. The whole team are so warm and caring. They really take the time to get to know your child and it shows in the outstanding care they provide. Each child is treated like an individual and really well supported. I was apprehensive when my son started nursery at 8 months old, but the team have helped him through all his milestones, from weaning to learning to walk. I’m so happy we’re part of the Busy Bees family.

I cannot recommend it more highly. The Ofsted score for this nursery is Outstanding, but for us, that was a secondary point, with the most important being the love and care the staff have shown both our children. They have really enjoyed being there and have developed into confident girls. It really has been a home from home experience. The high levels of staff retention are really important for consistency for the children and suggest this is a fun place to be for the carers too, which I think filters down into the experience the children have who attend.

I write this review after sending both of our daughters to Busy Bees in Hertford. Whilst our eldest daughter left a few years ago, our youngest daughter has just left (August 20) to start big school. We cannot fault the level of care received, the activities and resources are great. If you are a prospective parent reading this, then you will be making the best decision if you decide to send your son or daughter to this nursery.
The staff genuinely love and care for each and every child, which makes it upsetting when you do finally have to leave (for big school).
It is important to note, their approach to lockdown and when the time came to return back, was simply outstanding. The communication continued throughout even providing activity packs for the children to do. They helped my daughter to return back confidently and to help prepare her for school (especially as she had been at home with me in these quite surreal times). Well done Busy Bees!

Both of my children have attended Busy Bees; one who has just started school and the youngest who still attends. I cannot sing the praises enough of all of the wonderful staff here. From the moment my eldest started they put my mind at ease very quickly. They take care in following any likes/dislikes/allowing for the amount/length of naps, any comforters they may be used to etc. They are so caring, warm, compassionate and flexible. They have all been so personable too and we have developed a lovely relationship with the staff as parents. They take time in creating activities that stimulate their learning through play and both my children have come on leaps and bounds here. The meal choices are great and I have always been amazed at the variety of meals they have had here. My children love all of the staff here and my eldest says he misses Busy Bees a lot……I think that speaks for itself!

My 1 year old son has settled so well into Busy Bees Hartham Park. The staff are all attentive and friendly. They genuinely care about the well-being of all the children. I have seen such a development in my son’s gross and fine motor skills. The staff are very passionate about developing the children and wanting what is best for them. I would 100% recommend this nursery – so happy we picked Busy Bees at Hartham Park

We were new to the Hertford area and our daughter joined in January 2023 at 3 years old. We were a bit nervous about her starting a new nursery and settling in but we needn’t have worried. Our daughter absolutely loves going to Busy Bees, she skips on the way in. The staff are so caring and genuinely care about the children. They do so many activities to keep the children interested and happy. We are so happy that we got a space at Busy Bees. Thanks to all the staff.
