July 6, 2016 at 12:00 amBoth my children went to this nursery when I returned to work following maternity leave, and stayed there until starting school. The nursery has been brilliant, it is so hard to hand your precious baby over to go back to work, and the support and care that both my children and I received throughout their time at the nursery has been faultless.

August 18, 2016 at 12:00 amMy daughters have been attending this nursery since 2010. My youngest has just finished pre-school in July 2016. Busy Bees has been a part of our routine for the last 6 years. It saddens me to see them leave as the care and staff have been amazing since day one. The staff, have helped through separation anxiety, tough morning drop-offs with tears, and I have left feeling reassured that they will both be happy and cared for. Always was greeted with a smile and by the children’s names, which is such a nice touch.

November 29, 2016 at 12:00 amAbsolutely brilliant staff – the manager is fantastic and just overall lovely nursery and environment. Very clean and lovely nursery and would highly recommend – must admit as with any nursery, it’s very expensive – but as they say you get what you pay for.

November 29, 2016 at 12:00 amTthis is a great nursery! The staff really care for the children and know all the children (not just their class) by name. The management team are always accessible and actively involved in the day to day care of the children, they are flexible, child and parent focused and have a genuine desire to make this the best experience for the children. They offer a range of activities for the children that are age appropriate. I am 100% confident of the care of my child whilst at Busy Bees. The experience enriches my child’s life.

November 30, 2016 at 12:00 amMy daughter started in the nursery this month, aged 1 year. The staff are friendly and helpful, they’ve been so kind and supportive during the settling in period. They were also very flexible on the number and timing of settling in sessions. They’ve been very willing to accommodate her routines and comfort items. I get a verbal report every day of how she’s been doing, what she’s eaten and what activities she has enjoyed. She has relaxed into her new routine very quickly.

November 30, 2016 at 12:00 amThis review writes itself. My daughter has attended Busy Bees Leamington since she was one and I have always been thoroughly impressed with the nursery. Having three children, I was very clear on what I needed from a nursery and Busy Bees is excellent. The facilities are spacious and clean, and the outside space is great – it is very accessible so the children can be in and out a lot. The atmosphere is very welcoming and friendly and there are lots of brilliant family occasions to get involved in too – it is lovely to spend time in the nursery outside the normal busyness of working life! My daughter is now in preschool and is very happy there. I have always been impressed by the way they show an interest in my child as an individual – they have understood food likes and dislikes and encouraged wider eating; have dealt excellently with a medical condition; have tailored activities to her special interests, and had endless patience with potty training. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this nursery.

December 6, 2016 at 12:00 amI’m really impressed with Busy Bees Day Nursery in Leamington Spa.
There is a spacious and well-equipped garden connected to each room, where the children go out to play regardless of the weather. I love that my daughter gets to spend so much time outdoors running around. There are lots of activities on offer – sand & water tables, a reading nook, many different toys and lots of singing & dancing.
The food is freshly cooked on-site and eating at the table, using cutlery, is the norm, meaning that my daughter’s picky habits are improving and she is much more independent at mealtimes now!
Each day, the nursery nurses give a detailed verbal report of what my daughter has been up to during the day – how long she slept, what she ate, what she enjoyed doing – and a photo scrapbook is maintained to keep a record of activities. I feel this is the only area which could be improved with some investment – an online portal where parents can view photos from that day would be absolutely perfect!

August 30, 2017 at 12:00 amOur son has only been at the nursery for six months but in that time there has been a noticeable improvement in many aspects of his development. He really enjoys his days there, especially the lunches, and has bonded well with the staff both in his room and across the nursery’s staff.
Our only negative is that there doesn’t seem to be a major focus on the use of key workers and how they take an active involvement in the development and communication with parents regarding our son’s progress.

May 10, 2018 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been here for a year and she loves it! She started off in the baby room and the care and affection shown by the staff was so reassuring for me as a mum who’d just started back at work. As she’s progressed through the rooms she’s been with staff who really do treat her like family. The activities she takes part in each day are well suited to her developmental needs and it’s easy to see how they aid her progress. She also loves the additional dance classes she partakes in with the nursery and has some great moves now!

July 24, 2018 at 12:00 amMy son has been going here for two and a half years, he loves it! He has made lots of friends and bonds with children and staff. The staff are all wonderful and so helpful. He has learnt so much whilst being here. We are going to be sad when he leaves for school, but will be starting our younger child here in Sept. The food menu is always great, they do so many different fun activities in and out of nursery time. I really cannot fault it at all!

July 24, 2018 at 12:00 amA fantastic nursery facility that has helped nurture my daughter with learning and play and improved her confidence and development. Wonderful and supportive staff committed to the best care as well as taking time to engage with and support parents. Great amenities, including the catering provided. My daughter is really happy every day and excelling and I couldn’t ask for more. Busy Bees is of great value to us.

February 5, 2020 at 12:00 amBoth my husband and I are thrilled with the level of care provision at Busy Bees, Leamington Spa. Our daughter has been attending for 10 months now and has been in 2 rooms. The staff here are incredible; they all make a real effort to get to know the children as individuals and treat them with the love and care required for this age group. The outdoor area and activities planned are excellent, as is the food! Our daughter is very happy here.

March 5, 2020 at 12:00 amOur daughter has attended Busy Bees since she was 9 months old, and I have to say the staff have been fantastic since day one. I have never had any doubt that they love and care for the children they look after, which was incredibly important when transitioning from maternity leave.
Busy Bees are a little more expensive than other nurseries in the area, but in this instance, I think it’s a case of “you get what you pay for”. They really have helped in turning her into the bright, confident little girl we have today and I thoroughly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, nurturing, stimulating, clean nursery for their little one!

August 7, 2023 at 12:00 amWe’re both super happy with every aspect of or child’s care at the Leamington nursery. We get all the necessary updates throughout the day every time she’s there, and we get a detailed breakdown of everything she gets up to while she’s there. The staff are all very friendly and happy to see our child, and it’s clear everyone there works well as a team and supports each other. Our child has grown so much mentally and physically since joining Busy Bees in January 2022 and my wife and I are convinced that the amazing support and development from the nursery staff are to thank for it.
