December 15, 2016 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been going to Busy Bees since 2013 and had travelled through the nursery from babies to pre-school. She has developed so much in confidence and learns new things every day. The staff and children have become her extended family.

December 15, 2016 at 12:00 amA professional but friendly environment which my daughter thoroughly enjoys going to.
I feel happy and confident to leave her in their hands and if I have any concerns the team there are all approachable.
We are both enjoying the activities that are happening during December with the lead up to Christmas.
I would highly recommend the nursery to my friends, family and colleagues.

April 13, 2017 at 12:00 amMy son currently attends the nursery and has been attending for 2 and a half years, he enjoys every session and always looks forward to going. I can’t fault the nursery at all, the staff are all amazing and always provide great activities for the children. The facilities are great, there is always something for them to do, my son loves playing with all the different things and especially loves the garden! Overall I’m very pleased I chose Busy Bees as my son’s nursery.

May 9, 2017 at 12:00 amSince attending Busy Bees in Kettering, my son has come on leaps and bounds. He enjoys his time at nursery and comes home telling us everything he has done in the day, who he has played with and what he has eaten. His speech is constantly improving, he’s trying different food all the time and generally doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day. His happiness speaks volumes about how much the staff do to help him develop and it allows us to return to work with peace of mind that we have made the right decision about the nursery he goes to. Thank you to all.

June 2, 2017 at 12:00 amMy son is very content at nursery. I wasn’t sure about sending him to one at all at first but as soon as I walked into Busy Bees in Kettering I was bowled over by the organisation of how it is run and by the friendliness of the staff. You always feel listened to. I know my son is very happy there and he has a lovely bond with the staff especially his wonderful keyworker. Would definitely recommend.

June 2, 2017 at 12:00 amBoth my children have attended Busy Bees Kettering. My first child started in 2010 and my second child is due to go to school this September. I really feel that it is an end of an era and not only will my child miss the daily routine of attending, I will miss the friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff.
Having attended the nursery for the last seven years, both my children have grown to be confident, friendly and independent, all of which I am sure Busy Bees have played a huge part in supporting me to achieve. I cannot thank the manager and her team more.

February 15, 2018 at 12:00 amThis is my 3rd daughter to attend Busy Bees in Kettering and all 3 love/loved coming.
The staff are very friendly and caring. My youngest daughter that attends at present cannot get enough hours of the day to be here.

February 15, 2018 at 12:00 amBusy Bees in Kettering has been outstanding in the care and attention for our daughter.
We consider the staff to be extended family and friends and my daughter has fantastic relationships here.
We couldn’t imagine sending my daughter anywhere else and feel at east dropping her off each morning knowing she has such a fantastic time.

September 27, 2018 at 12:00 amMy daughter started in babies and is now in pre-school, she has loved each room she has been in and each key person she has had, she has a built a bond with! I am glad I chose Busy Bees in Kettering for my daughter, she has had the best start in life.

January 28, 2019 at 12:00 amOur son attends nursery once a week. He is sometimes a little apprehensive when we drop him off but the staff are fantastic at reassuring him. Our son always enjoys the activities and is happily joining in with a beaming smile on his face when we come to collect him. We have also found the management team very accommodating and supportive to our needs. Great outdoor space; forest school; and fabulous fresh, home cooked food. A really great setting.

September 9, 2019 at 12:00 amBusy Bees is very clean and they encourage independence to children. My son was shy and reserved but with time he became more comfortable through the support of teachers. The children have wonderful meals prepared by a professional chef. The classes are big and spacious as well as the playgrounds. Teachers are attentive to parents request and ensure parents are involved in activities. My son loves his Busy Bees cuddly toy that he received for Christmas and keeps it on his bed. I would use Busy Bees again and recommend to friends and family.

March 4, 2020 at 12:00 amOur daughter recently started at Busy Bees and I was worried how she would settle given how new it was for both of us. However, the staff and manager could not have been more welcoming and understanding which has really made a difference. All the staff are friendly and greet you with a smile even if they are not in the room my daughter is in, and our daughter’s key person has really tried to understand our daughter and what would help her settle and feel more at ease. I also get a full debrief when I collect her meaning I know exactly how she is getting on. It’s a lovely setting where she has already done crafts to bring home and seems to be settling really well. I am sure she is going to love it.

October 29, 2020 at 12:00 amMy son loves nursery and all the staff are excellent he settled in straight away and is always happy going in and leaving. He eats well and it is a varied menu. He loves the outdoor space and has made the transition into the toddler room without a problem. I have used other childcare providers and this is the best.

March 20, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter started at Busy Bees in Kettering back in July. We looked at a lot of nurseries in the area and this one really stood out for us. We are so pleased we chose Busy Bees in Kettering. Our daughter is able to spend a lot of time outside in the garden and playground and loves visiting the allotment and forest school on site. The nursery has been amazing in supporting us with our daughter’s allergies and health issues and we have no hesitation that they are giving her the best care. She absolutely adores her key worker and staff and they’re such friendly people that we feel confident she’s having the best possible time. They really pay attention to her personality and what she likes to do, she is always making things and being creative. We love getting updates and photos sent through on the app so we can feel in touch with what she’s learning. The nursery itself has lots of parking and is a wonderful facility. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Busy Bees in Kettering and we can’t thank them enough.

March 20, 2021 at 12:00 amI cannot fault the care and support provided by all staff, not just my daughter’s key worker. The opportunities provided are really supporting my daughter’s development and she really enjoys nursery and has a good relationship with the staff. Feedback is good, so I always know what she has been doing and how she has been. The parent app is great and enables me to be updated during the day and to see the photos is amazing.

March 21, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter runs into nursery in the morning and always comes out with a smile on her face. The nursery has implemented a new system where nappy changes, food, observations and pictures are posted daily and are up to date. Although this is the new system; when my daughter is brought out at the end of the day the members of staff still like to chat about how her day went and give more detail which is lovely.

May 12, 2021 at 12:00 amI have had two children in this nursery from 2018 to present the manager and her team go above and beyond for our children, I know when I pick him up he has been cared for fed well and had fun. I cannot fault the staff or facilities one bit.

September 6, 2021 at 12:00 amWe highly recommend Busy Bees Venture Park! It is an excellent, welcoming, safe and fun setting.
We chose this particular nursery not only due to the high standards maintained but also the general attitude of staff, the parking facility, forest school and the yummy meals.
Our son joined during the summer of lockdown 2020 and graduated in July 2021.
The manager leads a professional and fantastic team all-round!
We’d particularly like to say thank you to the manager, her team and the Chef for all of their support and hard work in helping us to develop our son’s road to big school.
Massive thank you.

March 28, 2022 at 12:00 amI could not recommend Busy Bees, Venture Park enough! My daughter has attended since she was 9 months old and has blossomed into a vibrant well mannered young girl. She has been full time since she started and due to that, I owe most of how she has grown, to the team there. Everyone is fantastic and nothing was too much, even cuddling her to sleep (she had a sleep issue when she was a baby) and they did it to help her nap, which I was so worried about. Fast forward now, she has 3 months left to go and it will be a huge part of her life that she has to leave soon and I know she will miss everything and everyone there. The team from those who work in babies to preschool and the great chefs who interact with the kids, makes the environment, one, you never have to worry about leaving your child in.
