October 9, 2020 at 12:00 amBusy Bees have been amazing with my son, who has attended since being a baby. The staff and procedures have been amazing over the last few months and the staff and manager have ensured everything is as normal as possible for the children! I would definitely recommend Busy Bees Blaby.

October 9, 2020 at 12:00 amI couldn’t recommend the nursery more! They’ve really helped my foster son settle and start to feel secure after a rocky start for him. He’s absolutely loving going to nursery. He’s development has come on so much since being there and is making some great connections.

October 9, 2020 at 12:00 amMy daughter attends nursery 3 days a week and loves it, the staff are fantastic and very professional, my daughter’s first keyworker is very professional and so polite my daughter loved her, then she moved into preschool with the keyworkers who are fantastic with my daughter, and always reassure me. The nursery manager is always there to greet my daughter in the morning with the covid 19 situation. I would like to add that if the nursery was not open, my job may have been affected due to the covid 19, but the manager was always there with a smile under her mask, I would highly recommend the nursery,

October 9, 2020 at 12:00 amThe whole team at Busy Bees Leicester Blaby have made my daughter settle in and put me at ease when leaving her for work. A big shout-out to the manager, she is very approachable and is great at what she does and also my daughter’s key worker, she has been fab! I would highly recommend this nursery. The whole staff team are very caring towards the children and show great relationships! Even through the COVID period, the nursery has been good with communicating and keeping us all informed of their practice! 5* Busy Bees!

October 27, 2020 at 12:00 amA fantastic nursery offering outstanding care to my little one. After viewing a few local nurseries I knew instantly that he would be happy here, we have always felt welcomed by all staff and my son always comes home happy and full of beans!
Would recommend to friends without a doubt, thank you Busy Bees at Leicester Blaby.

December 2, 2020 at 12:00 amI am really impressed with Busy Bee’s Blaby and their staff.
Not only do I know that my child is being cared for but he is learning and growing constantly and most of all he really enjoys it.
The management and staff at the nursery have been excellent in dealing with and following the government guidelines in relation to the recent pandemic. Always reminding us how well our children have coped with the situation.
I couldn’t have wished for a better place to send my son.

January 25, 2021 at 12:00 amMy twins have been attending Busy Bees for about 3 years and I can not recommend it enough. This year was different to last year regards to Christmas party’s and I was worried that my twins would miss out on the experiences they had last December but I’m so pleased that Busy Bees made it extra special for them with their Christmas party still (smaller scale but twins still thoroughly enjoyed it) Christmas dinners, Christmas jumper days etc. Each year they receive a lovely and very useful Christmas present from the nursery and one also from their key workers. Thank you to all the staff for being fab.

January 25, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son transferred nursery’s in November 2020 and started at Busy Bees Blaby in the pre school room. They have been nothing short of fantastic and I am so glad I made the decision to move him. I was very anxious about the move but it was the best decision. He absolutely loves the nursery and is excited every time I tell him it’s nursery day! The new app has been amazing now we cannot go into the nursery and see our children in the room, it’s so lovely to see what they have been up to and know they are happy.

January 26, 2021 at 12:00 amI cannot thank staff enough for their continued amazing efforts in these difficult times.
My boy has thrived at Nursery.
Being an only child I think it’s so important for him to attend to learn social skills, sharing and making friends.
He will be off to ‘big school’ in September the team at Busy Bees Blaby will make him as ready as possible more so than I could.
Keep up the good work all & a big thank you.

February 3, 2021 at 12:00 amOur little girl has come on leaps and bounds here, which is testament to the skill, care and dedication of the team. This nursery is so incredibly well managed (both overall and room management) – this is reflected in the positive attitudes of staff and in the wonderful work that goes on within this place.
They are a really skilled and knowledgeable team, who know their ‘child development’ stuff. They also really ‘know’ and understand our child, so they get the best out of her.
They embrace all of her little quirks and take everything in their stride; implementing beautifully crafted learning exercises, into the day, to help with her development where needed (for instance, when she was refusing to brush her teeth at home). They pay excellent attention to her cultural needs, dietary requirements and to her individual needs – as a unique, little person. We have complete faith in this nursery’s ability to keep our child safe. You cannot put a price on that! Definitely ‘outstanding!’

May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amMy child attends nursery 1 day a week and started in the baby room – she has recently moved to the 2s room and her transition support has been amazing. She remains to be so happy at Busy Bees Blaby and has made lots of friends. All staff members have been friendly at handover and it has been great to be met by the manager in the mornings – my daughter loves this each week and I think this gives great consistency for the children to see a friendly familiar face. Would highly recommend Busy Bees Blaby and we are so glad we chose this nursery for our little girl.

May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amMy two children attend this nursery and I couldn’t be happier with their care. The manager is so warm, friendly and approachable and is always very professional, open and honest.
The staff at Busy Bees are very professional, friendly and approachable and all take great care in their roles and are excellent advocates for children.
During the pandemic the staff have been even more attentive, supportive and professional and have enabled myself and my husband to go to work, knowing that our children are safe and cared for.
The manager and the team always keep us informed of what’s happening at the nursery with regular emails and texts and the new app is a great way to follow our children’s progress and have a look at what they are doing day to day.
I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough. I was so anxious as a parent to leave my children at nursery and I have always been completely reassured and supported by the manager and the team. They are all fantastic! Thank you!

May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amAbsolutely love this nursery! My daughter has been going since she was 8 months old and she’s developed so much since being there and loves the entire staff there. She is always so happy when there and loves playing with her friends and doing loads of different things she doesn’t have the opportunity to do at home.
The staff members are always so welcoming and make your child feel so at home and loved, I would recommend this nursery to everyone because they really are incredible!

May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amOur little boy has been attending Busy Bees Blaby for over a year and loves it! He is happy going in every morning and happy when we collect him so we know he is being well looked after and having fun. The staff are lovely and are really helping with his development; they do lovely crafts with the children throughout the year and particularly for ‘events’ which is nice for us to see when he brings them home. He has just moved into the next age room and has settled in really well. We can’t recommend the nursery enough! The only things we would welcome an improvement on is the front outside which could do with some maintenance and upkeep (the outside space where the children play is lovely), and the fees are more expensive than other nurseries in the area and other nearby Busy Bees where nappies are also supplied at some.

May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amMy little boy has been coming to this nursery since he was a baby. He is in the preschool room now and ready to start school this year. This nursery has been brilliant for teaching him all the skills he needs to get him started in life. He has learnt so much coming here and has loved every minute. The staff are all so welcoming and lovely.

May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amAfter looking at several nurseries, we decided on Blaby Busy Bees as our favourite and we haven’t been disappointed with our choice. My son joined Blaby nursery at 9 months old when I went back to work and the staff made us very welcome and my son took to nursery really well thanks to them also.
A year and a half on and my son loves going to nursery. He tries so hard to tell me all about his day, always comes out happy and tired, which I really appreciate.
Since moving up into the middle room he had come on leaps and bounds. With the lockdown restrictions my son has had no other contact with other children his age other than at nursery as he’s an only child. He’s learning so much there too. He likes the staff and always talks about who he’s going to see the following day at nursery.

May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amI love Busy Bess Blaby. After visiting a large amount of nurseries in the area I found this one was just right for us. My son loves his key worker and she makes a real effort to meet his needs and help him grow and develop. I have referred two friends to this nursery over the past year and a half and will continue to recommend them to others.

May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amExcellent care given to our two children at every stage of the nursery as they progressed, one having left now to attend school, and our second child currently in the 2-3 years room. Great staff and management who really care about the experience that the children have, and the app has really helped with communication and updates on progress, especially through the difficult pandemic period.
Some issues with parking area, and pick-up logistics through the pandemic period, but this should not take away from the quality of the childcare provision given to the children.

April 28, 2022 at 12:00 amGreat standard of care provided for our daughter. Our older daughter also previously attended the nursery and had a great experience. Friendly staff and clean facilities. Would highly recommend to all local parents.

April 28, 2022 at 12:00 amMy little boy has recently started Busy Bees Blaby. All the staff are so welcoming and offer a range of amazing activities for him to have various opportunities that he loves and enjoys which has made the settling in a lot easier for him. Being a full time working mum, I often feel guilty for sending him into nursery full time. (Mum guilts are the worst haha). But the love and the care the staff members throughout the whole nursery give him, makes me feel at ease. It’s lovely to see him happily walk into nursery each morning and be so happy and cheeky when I’m collecting. Couldn’t recommend this nursery enough!
