April 26, 2018 at 12:00 amBusy Bees at Excel London has been fantastic for our daughter’s development. At every stage we couldn’t be happier with the staff and facilities. She looks forward to going to preschool.

June 21, 2018 at 12:00 amMy daughter started Busy Bees in London ExCel when she was barely 2 years old. We have seen her grow tremendously with regards to her overall development and confidence since attending the nursery. Thanks to the staff and her lovely peers for encouraging and enabling my daughter to develop her skills to her full potential.

August 30, 2018 at 12:00 amWe are first time parents and I was not happy to be putting my son in a nursery, I was very nervous. My son is now one year old and I have to say that the nursery staff and nursery environment has been amazing for the growth of my son and his confidence and social skills. I am easy and happy to leave him in their care while we are at work. I know he will be safe and he loves going there. Recommend them to everyone I know and anyone who asks.

October 18, 2019 at 12:00 amMy daughter joined the nursery at 8-months-old, we were so apprehensive about her joining but they soon reassured us. She settled so well and is still thoroughly enjoying her experience at the nursery 10 months later. The food is fantastic, always a good hot served lunch and such a variety which alternates weekly, our daughter gets fed better than us. I’m so grateful for a caring team to care and educate our young child. Thank you so much to the staff, you are amazing.

July 28, 2020 at 12:00 amWe are very happy to send our daughter to this nursery. She is learning everyday different things, she is motivated waiting for the next day to go.
We can see how attached she is with the teachers and some kids.

August 10, 2020 at 12:00 amMy darling son has been attending the nursery since he was 2.5 years old. He was diagnosed as ASD. I can honestly say the effort, everyone, in the nursery, has put in, and support we as a family have received has been phenomenal. He has excelled, he has made friends, he is doing so well and loves going to the nursery. This nursery has made a true difference in our lives, and I will always recommend them, not just for how well they care for children, but also children with extra needs. We are thankful every day that we found this nursery.

September 14, 2020 at 12:00 amStaff are very professional and also personable. My child has formed some lovely relationships with key workers and other staff, regularly speaking about them in a positive way at home. Staff have also responded well to our requests for information, guidance and support. There are many engaging activities throughout the day for the children to participate in, all of which are provided in a relaxed, friendly and safe environment. The nursery has regularly held events for families pre-COVID and their recent return-to-nursery program has been commendable their security protocols are likewise good.
The menu looks delicious and is regularly rotated with parental inputs considered.
We are comfortable and happy to leave our child in their care, even in the current challenging environment and we also very glad we chose this nursery – we would recommend it to friends, family and others alike.

September 15, 2020 at 12:00 amMy partner and I had visited several nurseries when our child was due to start nursery in and around the area and we found Busy Bees to meet all of our requirements in terms of management and teaching quality.
Since starting nursery our child has developed many new skills and made lots of new friends and is very happy and looks forward to attending.
I have no hesitation recommending Busy Bees. The rooms and gardens are spacious and the teaching quality and management is very high.

September 29, 2020 at 12:00 amBusy Bees at Excel is an absolutely wonderful nursery, so caring and supportive. Both of my kids went there, and they love it! There’s a very good caring staff. We’ve been impressed by how well they’ve responded to the COVID crisis to support the kids. I’d definitely recommend it!

July 21, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending the nursery for almost 2 years. He really enjoyed spending time with his peers and developed a strong affection for one member of staff who helped him with his speech and his key Person. He is now more independent, confident and well prepared to start the reception and I know the team has played a big part. We have been truly amazed by the professionalism of the team and especially in those unfortunate circumstances. It’s a 5 stars service for us!

July 21, 2021 at 12:00 amMy elder daughter went to Busy Bees at 8 months old and was there till pre-school. She loved being there at the nursery because of the loving and caring staff but also due to various activities they have planned for development of the children. Currently, my younger daughter goes to Busy Bees and I can see the progress she has made in her verbal and emotional development. I am always a huge supporter of the nursery!!

September 6, 2021 at 12:00 amIt’s nearly been 2 months since my baby boy started at Busy Bees London Docklands. Even though he is little I can tell he loves the time he spends at nursery. The nurses always make him feel welcome and safe so he hasn’t cried once when dropped off. The parent app has helped me a lot to understand how well his eating and sleeping and his nappy changes, and so I can plan the rest of the day when I pick him up; it is also amazing to see photos of my son through the app to know he is enjoying himself while at the nursery! The nurses always take good time during the handovers to explain how he is doing and, also so I can ask them any questions. The management team has also been helpful and efficient all the time, and always with a smile! I can tell they know my son and they adapt activities for his age and development stage. I highly recommend this nursery!

February 15, 2023 at 12:00 amI absolutely love Busy Bees London ExCel for my child, from settling sessions to daily activities. He is always looking forward to going to nursery. I get loads of pictures on the app to keep me updated on what my child has been up to at nursery. My first son attended this nursery too and standard is still more or less the same as it was about 4/5 years ago. Great nursery overall.

March 4, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son attended Busy Bees London ExCel from age 18 months to 3.5 years when we moved overseas. I highly recommend this nursery, the staff are all lovely and were so caring towards him. He was so happy to attend every day and loved the staff. They are also very supportive of special educational needs and worked closely with my family during an assessment period for my son. It is a very inclusive and welcoming atmosphere.

March 7, 2023 at 12:00 amOverall, a good experience with the nursery. The settlement has been handled with care and interest for my son. The staff have been responsive to his needs, providing a range of activities for his development. Like the fact that there are some additional activities planned for the kids with the participation of outside teachers/artists like ceramics.

March 14, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has attended Busy Bees, London ExCel from 11 months old. The care my child has received from when he was a baby to now (he is a pre-schooler), has been amazing. My son has been thriving every day. They have access to the garden every day with so many fun activities set up inside and out! They also keep us updated on the app with pictures. I have definitely seen a change in my son’s development and behaviour. Thanks to the management and the amazing teachers for all the help.

July 24, 2023 at 12:00 amGreat baby, first steps and toddler rooms. (Only very recently joined preschooler room).
Excellent educators for the first two years; attention to the child’s interests and helping them develop key skills. Great communication between nursery and family.
It’s visible the interest and care the educators show towards the children. Very good scope of activities, particularly in toddler room (1-2 year).
