It’s completely natural to feel hesitant and to wonder if they’ll be well cared for. But seeing Samaira blossom—becoming confident, communicating her needs, and learning so much at such a young age it is incredibly reassuring.\n\nThe positive impact of staff, who go above and beyond, speaks volumes. They’ve not only helped her grow and learn but have also provided me with peace of mind and confidence in her care. My  gratitude shines through, and it’s clear that this nursery has made a lasting impact on us. “Thank you” may feel small, but my heartfelt words express so much. Samaira is lucky to have such a supportive environment and a loving, attentive staff at Busy Bee.",

The outside area is also absolutely fantastic! I can't wait to hear lots of feedback each evening.\nI can't praise Emma the manager enough and the rest of the senior team for their confidence, reassurance and professionalism.

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff know the children and their families well. They play alongside children to assess what they know and can do, supporting them with what they need to learn next and addressing any gaps in their learning. This includes children with special educational needs and/or disabilities and those who speak English as an additional language.

Pre-school children are proud to explain the maps they have made after going on a treasure hunt in the garden and the different skills and knowledge they have learned during this. Staff extend the play further as they discuss hiding the treasure with the children and how they could continue the play later in the day.

Since my child has joined the nursery, he has been very happy, we have received excellent care! The staff in the nursery really care about my boy and I have felt supported. They have help put my mind at ease and made the process easier as anxious mum.

Enrolling My daughter at Busy Bee was a fantastic choice! Taking that first step to entrust your child to others, especially when going back to work, can be challenging. It’s completely natural to feel hesitant and to wonder if they’ll be well cared for. But seeing Samaira blossom—becoming confident, communicating her needs, and learning so much at such a young age it is incredibly reassuring. The positive impact of staff, who go above and beyond, speaks volumes. They’ve not only helped her grow and learn but have also provided me with peace of mind and confidence in her care. My gratitude shines through, and it’s clear that this nursery has made a lasting impact on us. “Thank you” may feel small, but my heartfelt words express so much. Samaira is lucky to have such a supportive environment and a loving, attentive staff at Busy Bee.

My son has attended this setting since he was 2 years old, staff have always been supportive and proactive in helping him along his SEN journey. I have always felt comfortable to air my concerns and praises. I couldn’t ask for more support for him and I will be sad to see the safety net of professionals who see and understand him go when we go to school.

Theodore has loved being at Busy Bees since day one. The staff are fabulous at meeting his needs and keeping a standard of care that I would expect at home. Seeing Theo smile at his key workers each morning makes me feel confident that he is being well looked after and is building bonds with the nursery staff. The staff are always helpful and easy to talk to whenever and the manager goes above and beyond for the children and families attending the nursery.

After visiting other nurseries in the area there was no question about where my child would go. Unique needs have always been met and nothing is ever too much trouble, he has strong bonds with his keyperson and all staff in PresSchool since joining and they have helped him to develop and thrive. Pre-school offers exciting activities every day and there are lots of wonderful resources to help keep him engrossed. The outside area is also absolutely fantastic! I can't wait to hear lots of feedback each evening. I can't praise Emma the manager enough and the rest of the senior team for their confidence, reassurance and professionalism. They are all absolutely fabulous at what they do. Meals are all freshly prepared and there's a huge variety on the menu too which are fantastic!
