December 31, 2019 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been going to Busy Bees since April 2019. I have felt comfortable leaving my child in the care of the staff here. They have always been friendly and very helpful. My daughter is always happy when I collect her and tells me all about the activities she has done that day. I have received good handovers at the end of the day and am happy with a variety of activities on offer. The children are outside whenever possible which is great for us as my little one has a lot of energy. My daughter seems to have made good relationships with both staff members and her peers, enhancing her social skills and confidence. I’m confident that her time here will assist in a better transition to school in September.

March 6, 2020 at 12:00 amMy little girl has loved being at Busy Bees! She will be leaving this year for school. My son is also starting next week.
I was very worried with my daughter starting as she was premature and I was anxious going back to work.
Busy Bees put me at ease, I could ring whenever I liked to check on her and they would always ring if there were any issues at all.
She has become such a wonderfully confident little girl. She is more than ready for school. She has made many friends. We’ve even had some play dates outside of nursery.
She also loves her teachers and talks about them at home.

March 6, 2020 at 12:00 amMy daughter joined Busy Bees around six months ago now, just after she turned one and its been for the best. She was very shy and clingy to me before she started and now she has come on leaps and bounds. She has completely opened up and is excelling in her developmental milestones. With the help of her carers at nursery, they’ve helped her learn new words and things to explore. She has really become her own little person there. I am feeling confident leaving her at nursery because she is so well looked after and if there is any problem big or small they always ring you which is definitely a reassurance for me. I’m grateful she goes here and would highly recommend to any parent. Thank you for taking such good care of my girl.

July 9, 2020 at 12:00 amMy little boy has grown and developed so much in his time at the nursery. He will be leaving this year to go to school and I am confident in saying he would not be anywhere near ready for that big step if it had not been for the care and development that his teachers at the nursery have given him. I now have a very confident little boy that has come into his own. I could not recommend this nursery enough.

July 15, 2020 at 12:00 amBusy Bees at Milton Keynes on Saxon Street is a lovely nursery with friendly, caring staff. Our daughter (2) has been going there for over a year with a break for lockdown and clearly loves the staff and activities. It’s a credit to the nursery that after over two months at home during lockdown, she was enjoying it from day one and happy at drop off by the end of the first week.
The outside space isn’t huge but it’s big enough and the children spend time outside as much as possible. The nursery offers a good range of activities for the children, and the food menus appear balanced and varied.
We have been impressed with how Busy Bees has dealt with the coronavirus pandemic with the interests of families at heart. Communication with parents has been excellent, including keeping in touch during lockdown and giving ideas for activities at home. The nursery has been flexible and understanding of personal circumstances during reopening.
Overall, we can’t recommend the care highly enough.

July 15, 2020 at 12:00 amAfter attending Busy Bees Nursery my daughter had a very good progression regarding her developmental milestones. She loved the nursery and the caring staff members and she was confident and happy to go to school. Thank you Busy Bees staff for everything you did for her in order to settle and for us to be satisfied.

July 15, 2020 at 12:00 amProfessional, helpful and friendly staff, they made sure the transition and settling as smooth as possible. My daughter progressed quickly in the nursery. We are very happy with the nursery. This is my second daughter in Busy Bees, Saxon Road. Highly recommended.

July 28, 2020 at 12:00 amVery friendly and approachable staff, you can tell that they take pride in looking after our children and ensuring that their needs are being met and interacting with them throughout the day. They have such a structure and routine in place to go with the child’s pace. They also keep you updated with literally anything and everything so that you also feel involved with your own child at their nursery. We also appreciate the amazing food options that are given to our child and the quality of the food. We are very happy with our child going here and we know that if we were to ever have any concerns then they will be looked at. 10/10

July 29, 2020 at 12:00 amI highly recommend this nursery. The staff have really taken the time to get to know my son and support his development in fun and creative ways. I am always well informed about his activities and progress. The staff are all very welcoming and I find them to be passionate and dedicated to the care they provide.

August 3, 2020 at 12:00 amHigh standard of childcare demonstrated by all. My daughter enjoys attending and activities are frequently done. There is great communication from the nursery team. My daughter is developing well and builds positive relationships both with staff and fellow attendees. My daughter has individual goals of achievement, which are measurable and she is supported very well to achieve. During COVID there has been minimal disruption and a high level of infection control strategies have been adopted. I feel happy to leave my daughter in the care of Busy Bees, knowing she will have a lovely day. I work at the hospital, this is convenient and reassuring that my daughter is close by.

August 10, 2020 at 12:00 amOur son has been going to the Busy Bees at Milton Keynes on Saxon Street since 2017 and he loves it. Every single member of the staff has been very caring, professional and friendly. If there was an issue, this was dealt with professionally and sorted out. Due to the lockdown (Covid 19), all the staff from the nursery has been fantastic and working very hard to make sure children could have a “normal” nursery day. We would like to thank all the staff for looking after our son but, especially to the nursery manager for all her support.
– Our son’s key persons for teaching, educating and playing with our son.
– Chef for keeping happy our hungry boy.

May 5, 2023 at 12:00 amStaff are always friendly and always have a smile.
My daughter started at 9 months old and is now 3 years old. She attends full-time and is always happy to go to school.
My daughter is progressing really well and she’s always pretending to be the teacher and teaches me what she’s learned.

June 8, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has flourished since being at Busy Bees Milton Keynes on Saxon Street three days a week. Her confidence has grown as well as her speech and other learning skills. The feedback I receive when I pick up my daughter is very good and allows me to focus on things that she is interested in. Can not praise the staff enough for all they are doing for my daughter. Would highly recommend Busy Bees Saxon Street.

June 9, 2023 at 12:00 amMy two children have attended the nursery and both have gotten on well and are happy when there. They are progressing well and often want to copy things at home that they have learnt from nursery. The staff are friendly and both children love coming to nursery.

July 7, 2023 at 12:00 amOur daughter has had such a great learning process at Busy Bees from the very start. The staff are always greeting her with a smiling face every morning. We receive regular updates of our child’s progress throughout the day and often take a look at the photo updates to show what she is working with. At the end of the day we are given a full briefing of what she has achieved, how she is developing and what we need to work on. Overall we are very happy with Busy Bees. The staff are kind, friendly and helpful and are quick to report and bring to our attention anything necessary. Keep up the good work!

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amI have been with Busy Bees Milton Keynes on Saxon Street for near 7 years with my 3 children and the staff feel like family! They are always professional with a friendly and understanding approach. My girls have all loved it here and they will greatly miss the wonderful chef when she retires! Highly recommend using Busy Bees!

July 28, 2023 at 12:00 amWhat can I say about Busy Bees Milton Keynes on Saxon Street which would truly be enough to honour what a wonderful group of people they are? They have encouraged, taught and shown hard work and devotion towards my little 4-year-old from day one when he was 10 months old. My son is under SEN and this nursery has shown devotion and dedication towards my boy. They have been 100% inclusive with their teaching.
I could not recommend this nursery and its amazing staff enough, each and every one of them.
Do not hesitate sending your child to this nursery.
We love you all dearly.

August 9, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth of my children attend Busy Bees and I feel they are very happy there. The longer opening hours mean my working hours fit easily with collection and drop off. The staff are caring and communicate any issues to us. Any concerns we have had have been resolved quickly by the centre director. Many thanks.
