    A lovely nursery with great staff.
    My daughter has a wonderful time and enjoys playing with friends and learning through the various activities provided. She also eats all the lovely food prepared for her. I am very pleased with the care and education my daughter has and continues to receive.

    My child is very happy here, excellent services. Better play equipment could be provided in outside area – slide etc.
    Not enough staff to child ratio in the mornings sometimes. Overall, very happy with care, staff can comment on what my child has said in the day which I love.
    Food choice is excellent, welcoming my child in mornings, very good to make her feel at ease.

    We have always had positive experiences at Busy Bees.
    My son loves going and we find it difficult to get him to leave in the evening.
    In February they changed the rooms to enable a better transition to school which my son loves. He says he is a ‘big boy now’.
    Great nursery and great staff.

    All the staff at Busy Bees Rushmere Ipswich have taken time to get to know my son.
    This shines through with how welcome we are made to feel every morning and by how much my son enjoys attending.
    My son talks excitedly about his day after every session.
    This makes going to work so much easier knowing my son is happy.
    Busy Bees have managed my son’s food allergy extremely well, ensuring his food is safe to eat but also serving like for like meals where possible so he does not feel left out.

    The nursery is lovely with a recently refurbished interior, has a lovely large garden area outside, delicious healthy food and snacks and the staff are fantastic. The staff always put the children at the forefront of their care, are kind and take great interest in the children as individuals. They get the families involved in activities for special days like Mother’s/Father’s Day, have parent partnership meetings, family social activities (treasure hunt) and also encourage home learning journals which are incorporated into themes of play and development during the nursery day.

    My experience with Busy Bees and all the staff has been amazing. The team are helpful and supportive. My daughter has always been very happy at nursery and myself and partner have also built a great relationship with the staff. We have never had to complain and couldn’t praise the nursery enough.

    The staff and management have been very friendly, professional and polite to me and my son. Always smiling. The reception area is always clean and welcoming with drinks and snacks if you want them. I’m told every day what my son has eaten and what he has learnt and they are very good with reporting accidents and behaviour. Thank you for a lovely experience.

    Well, what can I say about my son’s experience over the last few years? Nothing but fun, laughter, learning and making some great friends in a wonderful, nurturing setting. My son was extremely well cared for by carers that clearly took a real interest in his well being and development. Management is helpful, friendly and accommodating and the two keyworkers my son had were by far the best you could hope to have for your children in your absence.

    My son’s key person is outstanding. She loves and cares for him with passion and dedication. I love receiving weekly photos of my son playing and learning. He loves going to nursery. Room manager is so engaging and clearly a huge asset to the nursery.

    My precious little boy loves coming to this wonderful setting. He beams with delight as soon as we pull in to the car park. It is such a lovely place to spend time and the pictures he brings home are just magical.

    The staff at Busy Bees Rushmere are absolutely lovely. My little girl is very fond of them and has a lovely bond with her key worker who is fantastic. They are always really welcoming in the morning and manage to reassure and cheer up my little girl if she is emotional. Her language was slightly delayed and the fantastic work of the staff has helped her to catch up now without needing SLT. We couldn’t be happier with Busy Bees Rushmere. Thank you.

    Great return to nursery following on from lockdown. My son has transitioned into pre-school, and the staff have been excellent with communication around changes in the process and how the nursery is now working. Very impressed.

    Our 26-month-old son has attended Rushmere Busy Bees now for the last 9 months and the staff are always so friendly and helpful and he always has a busy fun-packed day do all sorts of activities and learning new things. He is so happy to walk in every time we drop him off which really shows how happy he is going. They are all great and happy to answer any questions. Would highly recommend.

    The nursery have been brilliant for our little one especially as he joined as nine-month-old post-national lockdowns. Great entertainment, food, care and updates. He loves it there!

    Busy Bees at Rushmere is outstanding. The care they give to my 2 little ones is second to none, my eldest absolutely adores it and all the staff. He clearly feels safe, confident, and cared for. The nursery has been excellent for his language development, toilet training, mark-making, and social skills, and in introducing my daughter, they made me feel nothing but confident that she would be well taken care of. The regular updates and photos provide reassurance during the worrying time of returning to work. I simply cannot thank them enough and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery.

    Excellent service all round. I cannot praise the staff for helping both parent and child enough. Finding the balance of what works for your child and not treating them all the same. They go the extra mile supporting you when you need extra sessions. 100% cleanliness throughout. Perfect Chef for my little one too. She loves her nursery family!

    My daughter has been in various Busy Bees since she turned 1. I cannot begin to explain the amount of love and care both her and us as a family have seen from all the staff. They take the time to learn about our family and each child’s individual needs. They use the activities we do at home and incorporate them into their learning at nursery. Every day there is something different for them to explore, with both fun and educational elements, and are often reported on in the app for us to see what they’ve been up to. They are given a wide variety of nutritious meals every day, with dietary requirements always taken very seriously and explained to the children so they understand why they may have something slightly different to their peers. Their drop off and pick up times are so flexible which is perfect for unsociable jobs such as my own. There is not a single thing I can fault about Busy Bees Ipswich Rushmere, their care exceeds any expectations I’ve ever had, and will always recommend them to anyone.
