October 13, 2024 at 3:44 amHe loves to go into childcare centre and he has came on so much since attending, he comes home with new words every time he goes and has learned so many social skills which is incredible to see. The team are remarkable and it is evident that they care for the kids and know them inside out. The building has recently been refurbished and the resources and activities on offer to the kids are remarkable, he will try food that he would not even consider eating at home. I couldn’t suggest the childcare centre enough! My nephew has been attending Blaydon since January 2022, the care he has received is second to none, particularly since the recent change in management.

November 4, 2024 at 11:45 pmThe team are welcoming and approachable, which makes it highly easy for a new mum to ask questions without any worry.
Team helped the transitioning of my 9 months old so easy, even when breastfed until 2, they were keen advocates to follow my wishes. I am so glad we came, her development is outstanding and everyone says so. It’s by far, down to the time at childcare centre she’s gotten so independent. Thank you. Over the past 1 year 6 months, the care and attention given to my daughter has been incredible.

November 30, 2024 at 2:59 pmThey treat my son like he’s their own and my son has a strong bond, not only with his key worker but also the rest of the team in the room. The team from the other rooms in the childcare centre all know all the kids by name not just the kids in their own rooms.
The childcare centre has a welcoming, homely sense. It is not the biggest childcare centre which means all the kids are valued and all team know them. I would highly suggest this childcare centre.
The management is approachable and deals with any queries straight away. The team are all lovely and obviously adore kids. Above all, I sense my kid is well cared for and provided with stimulating activities which are linked to his interests. He is cheerful to go into childcare centre and cheerful when I pick him up. The team at Busy Bees at Blaydon are expert, approachable and attentive.

December 9, 2024 at 6:10 pmThe activities and discovering is well tailored to the childrens age and abilities. The food is all made in-house, fresh and organic. Outside playtime areas are large and segregated by age groups, so the smaller kids can playtime safely. Indoor toys and books are age appropriate, cleaned regularly and batteries replaced when needed. Each kid’s day is summarised in a diary for the parents to view or take home and return. I cannot find a fault with care given here!

January 9, 2025 at 9:03 pmThe team are highly attentive at this point in our journey as our daughter is due to leave in August to go to Reception. We find ourselves leaving with lifelong friends and lots of cheerful memories.
The childcare centre is well equipped with a great variety of toys to help learn and develop. The team are highly welcoming, polite and welcoming to all parents and kids. I would not hesitate to use this childcare centre again and can’t suggest it enough. My Daughter has been at this childcare centre since she was 18 Months old, in that time she has flourished and is now a confident cheerful little girl.

January 16, 2025 at 8:11 amI wouldn’t send him anywhere else! Outstanding team, highly welcoming and like 2nd mums I sense confident in sending my son, it is a secure and cheerful space, he has come along so far since joining.

January 29, 2025 at 5:58 amThe team are exceptional so welcoming and attentive that my little one took the time to settle in. I am 100% confident that he is being well looked after and am kept informed of everything he has been up to and how to help his development. The menu is full of healthy choices and is frequently changed. I would suggest this childcare centre to everyone! I adore this childcare centre!

February 7, 2025 at 4:51 amThey have a range of facilities. The team are beyond outstanding with the kids. My daughter loves it so much she can’t wait to go in the morning. The place is spotless and by all accounts (according to my daughter) the food is great too. Busy Bees overall has been outstanding during the COVID-19 crisis. I would strongly suggest this childcare centre. The childcare centre is outstanding.

February 10, 2025 at 12:47 pmE.g my daughter attended last year, team knew my daughter loved dressing up. My son, this year everybody knows he loves dinosaurs. I have no worries or concerns when my kid is at childcare centre and I believe that is how it should be. Outstanding team. I believe the team at Busy Bees at Blaydon are highly attentive and get to know the kids well to meet their needs.

February 12, 2025 at 5:04 amSeeing her develop every day, being more confident in herself and discovering new things all the time is truly nice to see and I hope all the team are highly proud to know how much they help and bring on the kids. Thank you Busy Bees. Have used this childcare centre since 2015 and have nothing but praise for all the team who have helped and looked after my daughter.
Milan Grant
February 13, 2025 at 9:12 amGreat number of activities available. Would like feedback about what activities my kid has been doing. Feedback tends to be mainly just about what food my kid has eaten during the day. Childcare centre team are highly welcoming and kids appear to inviting to them.

February 16, 2025 at 1:07 pmTruly cheerful with the childcare centre and team.
My kid loves going to school and have found it truly beneficial to his development.

March 4, 2025 at 8:17 amThe team have been outstanding over the 5 years my kids have attended they have an outstanding way with kids. She made them sense secure and secure when dropping hem off, making it a pleasant journey and I could go to work relaxes knowing they were cheerful and content. All the team are outstanding. Both my kids have attended the childcare centre prior to starting school.

May 6, 2025 at 10:46 pmI am confident that the team looking after the kids are fully competent kid carers. The team are lovely and welcoming and gave me reassurance that my kids were OK. My son loves going to childcare centre and his speaking and discovering have truly come on. My son and daughter have attended this childcare centre.
Toby Hayden
June 4, 2025 at 11:54 amIt’s clear there is genuine care for all of the kids within their care. He has flourished in his short time at the childcare centre with his speech and motor skills advancing almost weekly. Can’t wait to see how much he develops with you all as he grows. Cannot praise the team at Blaydon childcare centre enough, nor the care and attention they give my son.
Blake Lawson
July 1, 2025 at 6:08 pmMy son still is at this childcare centre. The team are all truly welcoming and supportive and I sense they have a great relationship with my son. They certainly know his likes and dislikes. The childcare centre has recently been redecorated and with new flooring is looking great. I think the outside space could do with a re-vamp but all in all, would highly suggest. I have used this childcare centre since 2010 and both my kids have attended here.
