Keyworker/receptionist are great!

All key workers are fab, great with the children and always so welcoming. Morag is especially an asset to the company. Always give great handovers on what my little one has been up to through out the day and receptionists are also lovely and welcoming. Very happy with busy bees and how my little one has settled. Also always clean rooms and children always look happy!

My little boy is having the best time…

My little boy is having the best time at Busy Bees in St Andrews. He has been there for 6 months now. I was so worried about him starting nursery but he settled in so quickly and absolutely adores his key worker Lauren, which makes us feel less of the parent guilt of sending him to nursery. Really glad we picked this nursery, staff are all lovely, children always seem happy and the nursery is always clean and a good temperature. They’ve catered really well to my boy’s CMPA, and he has done so well with eating, which we can attribute to the variety of dishes he has at nursery! We’ve always managed to get him in if needed on an extra day if something at work pops up. He has come on so well with his walking and talking and development in general. Thank you for making it so much easier to return back to work and for looking after our boy so well!

Awesome team members

Awesome team members, very friendly and able to make children settle in beautifully in their own time. I have both children at busy bees and they have settled in really well. I highly recommend it! Thank you for your hard work and kindness that you show every day!

As an ex nursery teacher I was very apprehensive about sending my daughter to another nursery. We visited 5 and chose Busy bees.
All staff have been amazing with my daughter (she’s currently in the toddler room) and have supported her and us as parents with her speech and now potty training. I have no anxieties about leaving my daughter at the setting. Communication is effective and we are very happy with how she has progressed! Thank you to all !

The best nursery!

Since my little one joined Busy Bees, his development has been incredibly, he is striving! It took a few months for my little one to settle in but great care was taken to help the transition, with the communication being so important in this. The app is really good with seeing daily updates with eating & sleeping, along with developing updates and photos. Sometimes this can be a little delayed in getting update but I’d honestly much prefer that the focus is on looking after the children than updates on the app.
Food is really good; a 6 week rota of a spring/summer menu & I guess an Autumn/ winter one? But the food is really varied & plenty of options!

My son loves coming to nursery at Busy Bees

My son loves coming to nursery and this is largely down to the wonderful staff at St Andrews Ridge. They are very excited to greet us in the morning when we arrive and their warmth, friendly and welcoming attitudes are really felt from the moment you step foot through the door. There is an array of activities put on each day and the children get lots of time playing outdoors due to the free flow model.

My son comes away smiling everyday and I couldn’t praise all the staff enough for doing such a wonderful job caring for the children. The food is also excellent with a very good seasonal menu on offer.

The children are always smiling and happy when you visit for collection and drop off, which speaks for itself.
