Busy Bees Ipswich Pinewood

My son started nursery in 2016 at 10 months old, I had every emotion running through me and I was assured by the very caring and well-managed team every time I dropped off, picked up or phoned that my son was loving his time at Busy Bees at Ipswich Pinewood. My son has thrived from being at this nursery and the team that work here do everything to make sure his best interests are cared for. As a first-time parent, I felt comfortable in asking the staff if/when there were things I should be doing to further his development or things he should be achieving that he yet wasn’t, and I was always given positive answers and feedback on how my son was developing. I’m sad to think that he will be leaving this place next year for school. The children really are the heart of Busy Bees at Ipswich Pinewood.

Both of my girls have attended Busy Bees at Ipswich Pinewood.
The older one has just left having attended since 10 months old and is now school ready and my younger one is in the baby room.
The level of care for my girls has always been excellent and their key workers have met with me and spoken at handovers at length about how they are getting on and helped to settle them in. It’s a lovely learning environment with friendly welcoming staff who genuinely care for your children.

Both my children have been cared for at Busy Bees Pinewood since they were 11 months old. It is such a welcoming place, and although it is hard to leave your little ones, it makes it so much easier knowing they are in such a wonderful environment. It feels like a family. My son is 7. Everyone still remembers his name and takes time to have a chat with him too. Would recommend to anyone. Friendly staff who genuinely care for your children.

Our little boy has been going to Busy Bees Pinewood since he was 9 months old and we cannot speak highly enough of the nursery. All the staff are so friendly and really take the time to get to know the children and the parents too. We always feel we are updated with what our little boy is doing and that they really help with his progress.

My first child attended since he was a year old and he came on leaps and bounds in confidence, so I enrolled my last child here also. The staff are truly decent people and they go out of their way to make children happy. Both of mine greets me with gummy smiles (my baby) or recounting stories of the day. Lovely place.

My daughter has been attending busy bees since she was 9 months old, she has always been very happy here, all the staff are lovely and are amazing at what they do, security is a priority and always feel my child is safe, the meals are homemade and full of nutrition, my daughter is now in the preschool room and has excelled nursery has made her confident with other children and is more than prepared for reception.

Nursery staff always appear pleasant and informative on my Daughter’s day, with what she has taken part in, eaten, and progress.
I am very happy with the nursery and feel my daughter has learnt so much already, academically and socially.
My Daughter also appears to enjoy nursery with no issues at drop off and beaming smiles and cuddles when she is collected.

I knew from the second I walked in that Busy Bees was the right nursery for my daughter who is now in pre-school at Busy Bees and still is the best decision I made. My daughter was a very shy little girl and has come on leaps and bounds with her confidence, the staff are all an absolute delight and will forever be thankful to them for taking care and helping/contributing toward making her the confident little girl she is today.

My son has been at Busy Bees now for almost 2 years. He started just one day a week and has now increased to three full days a week. Since being at this nursery he has thrived and developed greatly in all areas. The staff had him potty trained and dry within a week and his speech is incredible and he isn’t even 3 yet. The staff care for him like family and he loves them too. The app is updated daily with toilet, sleep and food updates and they upload any pictures of activities being undertaken. I cannot recommend this nursery and the staff enough!

The best nursery we could have found our son. He started at 11 months, attended throughout Covid with all the restrictions and is now in his last few weeks with the nursery. Throughout the entire experience, our son’s needs came first and nothing was too much for the staff. He formed very close relationships to all the nursery workers in his room, and extra special ones with his key workers – which made it easier and more reassuring leaving him. All the staff have always been lovely and helpful with any enquiries etc.
Having just attended the school leavers graduation, it is really clear how much extra effort the staff put in, to give the children the absolute best experiences. I cannot thank them all enough throughout the years for helping, teaching and growing our little baby into a kind and caring little boy. You really are all amazing.
