About this day nursery
Bee Active @ Knypersley offers lively holiday clubs designed for children aged 4 to 12. Their programme focuses on promoting healthy lifestyle choices through diverse sports, games, and physical activities in a secure and welcoming setting.
The curriculum is flexible and varied, with senior coaches planning activities tailored to weather conditions, facilities, and the age, ability, and preferences of the group. Children also have the unique opportunity to select activities during 'children's choice' sessions.
They are encouraged to be adventurous, caring, independent, respectful, and enthusiastic, earning stickers and prizes for embodying these values. Parents have several booking options, including morning, afternoon, and full-day sessions, along with extended morning and afternoon care to accommodate working schedules.
Children are expected to bring their own packed lunch and drinks. All Bee Active coaches are fully insured, DBS checked, and trained in paediatric first aid and safeguarding children, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for all participants.

Where concerns are raised, staff work well in partnership with parents and other professionals, putting in place effective strategies and targets to support children, ensuring those with SEND receive the specialist help they require.

Children practise a range of movements outside, such as climbing and balancing and running. They have lots of opportunities to get physical outdoors.

We just wanted to share how incredibly grateful we are for the amazing team at Bee Active and the wonderful care our daughter receives every day. It has been such a breath of fresh air to have a nursery where the staff take the time to build genuine bonds with both children and families. The difference compared to our previous nursery has been incredible. Our daughter comes home happily talking about the team, and seeing the strong relationships she has built truly melts our hearts. From the very first visit and throughout the past year, the care, patience, and kindness shown by the staff has been outstanding. Every question is met with reassurance, and daily handovers are always thoughtful, detailed, and genuine. It’s clear that the team truly cares and takes pride in providing such a high level of support. Every member of staff we’ve encountered has been warm, welcoming, and attentive. They have clearly taken the time to understand our daughter and what makes her unique. We honestly couldn’t ask for a better team, thank you all for everything you do.

What a transformation! Since Bee Active took over this nursery it's barely recognisable. Owners, Management and Staff are all absolutely outstanding. There's been considerable investment in the business with a full renovation which the children and parents love. The approach of the staff is spot on, children are the clear priority for everyone there. Communication is also great, especially on the Famly app. Well done to everyone at Bee Active, fantastic job!
