    My niece has developed great communication skills and confidence through the attendance of busy bees. She thoroughly enjoys her time there!
    At pick up, we are provided with a full description of my niece’s progress and anything she accomplished and enjoyed during the day. This helps with supporting and encouraging her at home. Busy Bee has provided a wonderful environment and I fully recommend it.

    Listening to the feedback that was given about my niece was very positive. I appreciated that the nursery worker mentioned what was going so well and the learning points to focus on, with tips on how to do it.
    Thumbs up!!! Very helpful

    During Covid, my niece attended this nursery, at a time when everyone was worried and nervous about children in childcare. This nursery communication was amazing they put us at ease with constant updates of changes within the nursery, they were understanding about the fees when my sisters’ wages changed. They were really supportive with reassuring us about the safety of my niece especially as my sister was also pregnant at the time. Even though certain things in the room were removed, they still managed to simulate my niece in different ways which isn’t easy!

    My sister has been attending this nursery for a couple of years I have found that the staff are really caring and understanding in both the baby room and toddlers room. They have a variety of food which is freshly cooked on the same day and the take-home meals are really helpful in the evenings.

    My Granddaughter has attended preschool at Busy Bees for the past 6 months and I am so happy with the continuity of care given by the staff! Every Morning my granddaughter is greeted by a smiling face and is happy to come to nursery! My Granddaughter is fed fresh healthy meals made on-site! Which I find fantastic! Would definitely recommend this nursery!

    My daughter is extremely happy at this nursery, we receive information about her day on an app and get feedback when collecting. The manager is very friendly and all the team are always very cheerful. The outdoor area is very big. I highly recommend this nursery.

    My daughter started in December, I must say it has been tough. But my daughter has really come out of her shell. The staff member in baby room has really helped getting her off my wife’s hands. Knowing she is in a safe environment I am happy with the whole process and her settling in general.

    My children attend this nursery. The staff helped our family so much making parenthood easier with their care, patience and hard work from all the staff constantly thinking of great new activities for children’s development.

    This nursery is the best. They care for and nurture each child as an individual in the most wonderful way. The staff are mature, educated and inspiring individuals- not just the nursery teachers but the support and admin staff too. There is a close knit community feeling and they involve the parents. It is a very transparent environment which is what every parent could ask for.

    My child is always very happy when he goes to Busy Bees. The staff are always very friendly. The activities the team makes are amazing and I am always told how my child develops. The app has lovely photos and they hold parent meetings all the time to keep me informed about my child’s development.

    I value the nursery overall by the satisfaction of its most important customer: the children. I’ve sent my 3 children to Busy Bees Wandsworth and they have always had very happy experiences, and have been very stimulated to learn, explore and experiment. We have seen them develop many new capacities based on this experience and also integrating very well into school afterwards. The level of care and attention that I’ve seen from the teachers at all levels always makes me feel my kids are in great hands, and the staff truly love what they do, and this is evident in their work and dedication, consistently over the years (I’ve seen this over 6 years now).
    And also, the food they get is amazing! All prepared in the nursery kitchen, with menus that make me feel jealous.

    Lovely, welcoming staff. Manager is very involved with the families and the team is always cheerful. They organise so many activities for the kids. The app is great with lots of pictures and updates on naps, food and diapers. It’s often possible to book additional sessions on an ad hoc basis. The kids under two years old get to take home dinner, which is a great help for working parents. There is a big outdoor space where the groups mix, which is great for siblings.

    This is an excellently run nursery, where all staff go above and beyond to make it a comfortable, nurturing and fun place to be for our babies! The take away dinner offered daily is much appreciated too! The manager is excellent at handling all matters quickly and efficiently. Can’t recommend enough!

    We could not be more happy with the standard of care. Since our daughter started she has come leaps and bounds, both socially and developmentally and I truly owe it to Busy Bees. The teachers and staff feel like family and she jumps out of her pram every day to go to her classroom. They are nurturing and kind which is so reassuring when making a big decision on where to send your child to nursery.
    We have constant updates throughout the day through the app of what activities she is doing, naps, nappies, what she ate and photos. So I always feel in the loop on what she is doing.
    Another bonus is that they are open all year except bank holidays so there is no issue of finding additional childcare for term times. And, the take home meal so there is never a scramble for what to make for dinner after a busy day at work.
    We feel so lucky to have her here!

    This is a fantastic nursery. The building is modern and the rooms are spacious. The outdoor play areas are generous in size too. The staff are lovely and show great enthusiasm at handovers. The management team are brilliant – everything is well run. The app updates of what my child gets up to are terrific. There are lots of structured activities for toddlers. The food is varied and nutritious too – the same chef has been here for many years I believe, and our child eats much better at nursery than at home.
    There are other good nurseries in the area, and we’ve experienced a few over the years with our two kids, but this is the best one in the area in my opinion. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Busy Bees Wandsworth to anyone!

    Very pleased with the quality of service we’re receiving from Busy Bees, Wandsworth. The staff are very professional and my daughter loves them. The facilities are also very good: big rooms with high ceilings and nice outside area.
    I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

    Really happy with Busy Bees, Wandsworth! My son started in the baby room around 7 months ago and we have been very pleased with his progress! He also genuinely seems to be happy to get to the nursery and has bonded a lot with his key worker. Very caring environment and happy babies. Would definitely recommend!

    My daughter was welcomed with open arms, the ladies really put in a lot of work to ensure the babies are entertained, fed, well-slept and loved. Babies are tricky but there is nothing the staff won’t do to try and make them feel comfortable and safe.

    My daughter has been attending Busy Bees Wandsworth for over three years. The team are warm, kind and caring. She has learned so much during her time from both her peers and her teachers.
    The garden is a great resource, with loads of space for play.
    The food is good and the chef is my daughter’s absolute favourite.
    The centre director and staff are accessible, communicative and kind.
    I will be so sad when my daughter starts school as I think of the Busy Bees team as family and will really miss them, but we have made some, hopefully, lifelong friends.

    My daughter has been attending Busy Bees in Wandsworth Town since she was 10 months old. She is now 2.5 years old, and I can honestly say that she has had a wonderful experience there. The staff at the nursery have been excellent. They are kind, caring, and patient, and they have always made my daughter feel safe and welcome. They have also been very helpful in supporting her development. I love all the craft activities that the nursery offers, as well as learning numbers, shapes, colours, playing in the garden and so many more activities they do every day. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for their child. I know that my daughter has benefited greatly from her time there, and I am confident that your child would too.
