They've created such a nurturing environment where my child is thriving, learning, happy and settled.\n\nThey provide Fresh food made on their premises daily, along with healthy breakfast and snacks, and they provide a menu where you can see what options are available for your child each day.\n\nThey have a busy bees app on your phone, which regularly gets updated through the day so you can monitor your child through the day and see what they’ve eaten, nap times, toiletting, photos, and how they are progressing etc, which is lovely to get the updates.\n\nThe whole team here really are fantastic, professional, Attentive and just well rounded a lovely team, from the Manager, Assistant Manager, to the Nursery Staff, the support staff, the cooks.\n\nMy child has built a great relationship with his key worker and the staff in his room, which I’m so grateful they’ve put the time and effort into him to make him feel settled in and cared for as he can be a bit unsure at times around unfamiliar environments without me.\n\nThe high standard of care this nursery gives to each individual child is outstanding, every thing they do is with the child’s needs at the forefront.\nWe are beyond grateful for the peace of mind this nurser gives us; knowing our child is safe, happy, and so well cared for. At the start of putting my child into nursery I did worry about other people looking after him, as it wasn’t me, but that worry was soon took away which I’ll forever be grateful for. The transition was smooth and better than I imagined.\n\nWe highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a trustworthy, loving space for their child.\nThankyou to you all at Busy Bees, Belper-Gibfield Lane x",

## About this day nursery

Busy Bees Belper is a welcoming and secure nursery for children aged 1 to 4 years, operating Monday to Friday all year round, from 7:30 am to 6 pm. The nursery, which received a 'Good' rating from Ofsted on its latest inspection on June 11, 2024, provides a nurturing environment where children are happy and eager to arrive, settling quickly with their favourite toys and activities.

Staff support children well during their settling-in period, fostering strong bonds, especially with babies who seek out familiar staff for reassurance and older children who look to their key person for praise and encouragement. Parents highly commend the staff, noting their dedication to children's welfare and their efforts to go 'above and beyond' to help children settle.

The nursery effectively supports children with special educational needs and/or disabilities through early intervention and collaboration with parents and professionals to help them blossom. Physical development is a key focus, with activities that encourage fine motor skills and challenge older children with apparatus and balance beams.

The dedicated management team continually reviews and reflects on the provision to ensure positive experiences for children and their families, implementing a curriculum designed to prepare children for the next stage of their learning.

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are supported well at the nursery. The management and staff team recognise the importance of early intervention to help to support children and to swiftly attend to their needs. Staff work together with parents and professionals to implement strategies that help children to blossom.

Outdoor space

Children's physical development is supported well. Older children are offered challenge as they scramble up apparatus and balance on beams, supported by encouraging staff.

Busy bees at Belper Gibfield Lane is a fantastic Nursery. The nursery is always clean, bright, and filled with age-appropriate toys and activities. They've created such a nurturing environment where my child is thriving, learning, happy and settled. They provide Fresh food made on their premises daily, along with healthy breakfast and snacks, and they provide a menu where you can see what options are available for your child each day. They have a busy bees app on your phone, which regularly gets updated through the day so you can monitor your child through the day and see what they’ve eaten, nap times, toiletting, photos, and how they are progressing etc, which is lovely to get the updates. The whole team here really are fantastic, professional, Attentive and just well rounded a lovely team, from the Manager, Assistant Manager, to the Nursery Staff, the support staff, the cooks. My child has built a great relationship with his key worker and the staff in his room, which I’m so grateful they’ve put the time and effort into him to make him feel settled in and cared for as he can be a bit unsure at times around unfamiliar environments without me. The high standard of care this nursery gives to each individual child is outstanding, every thing they do is with the child’s needs at the forefront. We are beyond grateful for the peace of mind this nurser gives us; knowing our child is safe, happy, and so well cared for. At the start of putting my child into nursery I did worry about other people looking after him, as it wasn’t me, but that worry was soon took away which I’ll forever be grateful for. The transition was smooth and better than I imagined. We highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a trustworthy, loving space for their child. Thankyou to you all at Busy Bees, Belper-Gibfield Lane x

All nursery staff are friendly, supportive and take great care when looking after my little boy. His nursery experience has been nothing but positive. He loves attending nursery, has a great relationship with staff and enjoys all of the fun and engaging activities.

Busy Bees at Gibfield Lane have always nurtured and cared for my daughter over the last 4 years. All the staff are so lovely, and my daughter have thrived in their environment. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to other parents.

My little man has attended busy bees gibfield lane from being 1 years old. I could not have wished for a better nursery to look after my little one. All members off staff have helped in developing my little ones behaviour and personality, he has such a great imagination with anything and everything. When picking up my little guy, it's great to see him playing and interacting with other children and members of staff, really makes any bad day instantly a good one. When collecting my little one members off staff will welcome you with a professional attitude in the way they greet you, and talk about your little monsters day. I hope all you queen bees have a big buzzy pat on your wings

An absolutely fantastic nursery setting that has the child at the very heart of all it does. My child is excited to spend the day here and even asks after the staff when we’re at home.
