    Lovely setting with amazing staff that care for children like they are their own. They have a sound knowledge of the eyfs and put it into practice. They are lovely and welcoming and my son has been coming since he was 7 months old.

    The staff at the nursery are what make it, they are always happy, smiley and show genuine affection towards the kids. Both our kids have attended Busy Bees at Southwell and with our oldest having just left for school, the fact he still talks about the staff and how much he misses them is testament to the great job they do.

    My son went to the nursery last year and my daughter is currently there…. if only we knew how good this nursery was before we would have moved my son 4 years ago.
    We have known the manager from a previous nursery. All the staff are brilliant and my daughter has so much confidence and never cries. The nursery has an app whereby you can see what they have had to eat, how much sleep they have had and when they have had their nappy changed. It also gives you information on their progress. Amazing 5-star nursery and although it is more money than the previous nursery it is worth every single penny. Thank you to all at Busy Beest at Southwell.

    Busy Bees at Southwell nursery is fabulous, my two girls attend 3 days a week and they absolutely love it! Communication between the nursery staff and parents is excellent and the team at Southwell make me feel reassured that the girls are ok and having lots of fun. Having them at the nursery has also helped implement good structure in to their daily routines! I’ve seen the girls progress and develop well since starting in the summer and I’m so pleased I picked this nursery! I know they’re happy and safe and they have so much fun! Thanks to everyone at Busy Bees at Southwell!

    We love Busy Bees! Our son happily leaves us at the door without a backwards glance and comes out with a smile on his face! The staff are friendly and helpful and show a great deal of warmth towards the children.

    Lovely nursery with friendly staff who care about the children. My daughter (20 months) loves to visit and is making good progress – singing new songs at home and saying new words.
    We are kept up to date with her day through regular updates on the app which is reassuring as a parent. Management is really helpful and accommodating with last-minute changes to days or unexpected extra days!
    Would highly recommend.

    We have been bowled over by how fantastic the team are at Busy Bees Southwell. Our eldest has come on leaps and bounds since he started there. Lots of time was put in by a number of the staff to help our son acclimatise to being away from home and he now looks forward to nursery days and can’t wait to tell us about all the fun things he’s been up to. The app provided to keep us up to date on what he has eaten is also really helpful.

    Busy Bees Southwell has always been outstanding, with excellent and hardworking staff. However, the changes and additions made over the last few months have been invaluable and have excelled the nursery. Some of the changes and additions include allowing the children to borrow books and educational activities from the nursery. They have more frequent and detailed uploads on the app, such as what activities the children are doing that week and they put on more event days at the nursery throughout the year. A great variety of new activities at the nursery, including baking and gardening. They have provided a new weekly email update to parents and a new welcoming, informative and interactive reception area which is regularly updated. The whole nursery has recently been refurbished to a very high standard with new toys, and sensory and learning equipment. The nursery staff have created an engaging, interactive and fantastic learning environment which the children love. Our child loves going to nursery, and loves all the staff!

    Our daughter has been attending Busy Bees Southwell since 2019 and is currently loving her time in pre-school, so much so she often asks if she can go to nursery at the weekend! All the staff are fantastic and so welcoming. Our 9 month old son is due to start next month and we have no reservations about him starting – we’re excited to see how he changes and develops with the support of the Busy Bees Southwell team (and big sister)!

    Our youngest now goes to Busy Bees, so we’ve been at the nursery for over five years. We’ve always been very happy with everything, and we know our girls have been cared for and well looked after. They both enjoyed the activities (especially in pre-school), and we noticed with both that their confidence grew ad they became more independent as a result of going to Busy Bees. The staff and keep workers are great. We’ve recommended the nursery to others. Thanks for taking care of our girls!

    One word…outstanding! Our little boy has come on leaps and bounds since attending Buy Bees Day Nursery. As a parent, it’s reassuring to know that Bees always go that extra mile in supporting every child’s needs, especially their development! The fantastic team at Bees are always there to answer any questions and we would definitely recommend Busy Bees to any parent!
    We honestly can’t say enough high praise and thanks for taking such care of our little man!
    The feeling it gives us when dropping him off is like leaving him with family! Thank you Busy Bees.

    My daughter loves it at Busy Bees. She loves playing with the children and staff. The staff are very friendly and helpful. My daughter loves the daily activities they do and often brings home things she has made.

    My little girl has only been at the nursery for one year but she has absolutely enjoyed every day she has attended, in fact on those days she wasn’t attending she still wanted to go. The staff have been really friendly and welcoming and she has come on leaps and bounds throughout the year, turning into a lovely little girl. Her confidence, attitude and awareness has improved and we know that she is now fully ready for her school adventure. The staff have also been really supportive with us with our food allergies and have helped me to manage the challenges that we face. When we started the re-introduction of foods, they again, were able to support me throughout the process. The outdoor space is great and as my little girl loves being outdoors this has really allowed her to explore and understand the natural world around her. Honestly, this is a great nursery and one I would recommend to any other parents.

    My son started in November 2022 in preschool. The staff are kind and caring towards him. They listen to what I have to say and implement that in their learning with him. They do a lot to support independence and encourage him to explore new things. They also have gotten to know him really well and set out things for him to do that they know he will really enjoy. I am really pleased with how he’s settled in and the development he has gone through in such little time being with Busy Bees Southwell. Thank you.

    My son has attended Busy Bees since he was eleven months old, he is now four years old. He loves his time there. The staff are all lovely. They do a very wide range of activities both inside and out. They tailor-make activities to suit your child’s interests. My son loves the food they provide and really enjoys the baking activities that they do.
    Would highly recommend Busy Bees, Southwell.

    Such a great nursery. From the day we went to look around to now, we can’t fault Busy Bees. The staff are all so lovely, helpful, kind and my little boy adores them all. Since him starting there, you can see how much he has grown. It’s the nicest feeling taking him in the morning with a big grin on his face to picking him up with a smile too and knowing he’s in safe hands. The activities they do sound so much fun, they are outside as much as possible. The food always sounds great, thank you staff. You’re updated throughout the day with what your child gets up to. They always have events going on and they make sure the families are included as much as possible. I can’t fault Busy Bees. Thank you so much for all you do.

    We have been really happy with Busy Bees right from when our daughter first started. She is always happy to go, the staff are lovely, kind and caring and send regular updates of what the children have been up to. She enjoys the activities and food, has developed socially and made some great friendships and feels like she is well prepared for starting school. Will be sad to leave!

    Amazing nursery with kind, personable and welcoming staff. The facilities are modern and the outdoor space is brilliant. There’s always lots of new daily activities and resources out for the children to play and learn. The communication is always prompt and informative. The staff always greet you with a smile and form great relationships with the children. They always go above and beyond to help. Highly Recommend.

    A fantastic nursery. My daughter has thrived in this environment with kind and patient staff who are very welcoming and easy to talk to. All of the staff get to know the children well. There are always lots of activities for the children to take part in and the outside area is absolutely brilliant.
