The Hampton Day Nursery

Since my son started the Hampton Busy Bees Nursery he has become such a confident little boy. He can say the whole alphabet, knows almost every colour and can count to 20! He can even recognise his name! He’s learnt so much in a such a short amount of time. I’ve been so happy with the all the help he gets from his key workers since first starting in toddlers, they really are the credit to the nursery. I would definitely recommend to any of my friends.

My Son has been attending Busy Bees in Hampton since May 2017. He began with settling in sessions which were a brilliant way for him to get used to the nursery setting and staff. He formed a brilliant relationship with his key worker in the baby room and I continue to feel at ease with his progress now as he has entered the pre-toddler room. The staff are all fantastic – no question or query is a problem. I receive daily updates through the online system and feedback on collection of what my Son has eaten, length of nap, nappy changes and activities. The key workers post observations of learning and development on the online parent system which is wonderful to see and eases the guilt of having to work! I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a friendly local environment where you can feel at ease knowing your child is well looked after.

My little girl loves nursery, and so did my son that attended before he went to school. My daughter has a great relationship with all staff and enjoys going to nursery.

Fantastic little nursery. Our 4-year-old moved there primarily due to our old nursery not offering free hours and we wished we had moved sooner. Great staff who are very child focused and our daughter is thriving in both development and confidence.

My son is loving his time at Busy Bees, The Hampton, he has made many friends and has settled in well. He will be leaving in the summer to start primary school but I have every confidence he is ready thanks to the help from Busy Bees to make sure he is ready for school.

The management at Busy Bees are brilliant, any concerns or changes you wish to make they listen to you and if possible, will help make the changes. (Eg changing Room setting or days attending)

I love the app used to record activities my son has done as observations and records how they have eaten. Parents can add to it too and give feedback.

My son enjoys his days at nursery and has learnt a lot of new things and communication. Staff are friendly. Well done.

My son has been going here for several months. At first, he was relatively introvert (nothing wrong with that) and he is also an only child.
Since he has been at Busy Bees, he has had excellent attention from staff and interacts well with other children.
You know when your child is happy? When he puts his comfort towel and dummy to one side, before running into the nursery room, happy to see the people there.
He has been developed really well. He is there full time, which equates to almost half of his waking week and we (my wife and I) feel comfortable with each person who takes care of him. Excellent, healthy food. Nappy changes. Observations. Friendly and warm staff from the floor and into the management office.
As parents, we also feel welcome there in a genuine capacity.

Only very recently, we encountered atrocious traffic jams around the Peterborough area and the nursery was kept open for him later than normal. Our son was well looked after. Outstanding support.

My daughter who is now in reception really enjoyed her time there. The pre-school prepared her thoroughly for school and she built some great friendships with both staff and children. The staff were quite personal with her and she really loved them. Playful enough to communicate with her yet firm enough to teach her. My son who is currently in the pre-toddlers class loves it. He is there full time and I have no reservations whatsoever. Whenever I have concerns I speak to the responsible staff and it is resolved quickly. The management staff are very approachable and ready to support. Sometime last week there was a traffic jam that caused hours of delay. A lot of children had to stay beyond the closing hours and I was impressed with the way the nursery handled the situation. My son was well taken care of, given more food, etc and didn’t feel the additional time at all! The staff were flexible and stayed beyond their normal hours with smiles on their faces! They are a fantastic bunch!

My daughter has been attending since she was four months old and adores her key worker who is a credit to the nursery. When some members of staff are in the baby room I feel completely at ease with them meeting the day to day care of my baby. My daughter’s key worker listens to any concerns/suggestions about my daughter’s milestones and has always encouraged and helped her reach them, she treats my daughter like her own. Any worry I may have ever had instantly leaves me when my daughter see’s the team.

I would like to take the opportunity to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking care of my daughter over the last 3 and a half years. She has grown into a wonderful little girl, full of confidence, self-assurance, and happiness, and Busy Bees have played a massive part in that. Her academic skills that she has learnt particularly in the last year are unbelievable and I couldn’t be more confident and proud of her to be so ready for school. Her social skills and friendships she has made within the nursery have been a very special part of her journey also.

I would like to thank some of your superstar members of staff who have all done an outstanding job in nurturing, reaching and developing my daughter over the years, and most importantly making a little girl have a big smile on her face every single day whilst in their care.
