I usually leave good reviews, however I write this review as a concerned parent but also based on my partners 8 years worth of loyalty working here, which unfortunately came to an end as did our children’s attendance . Our experience with Busy Bees has gone steadily downhill since Yanique Arabambi took over as manager. Standards fell, communication weakened, and the level of professionalism we had trusted for years simply disappeared. Both of our children attended this nursery, and the lack of proper support, especially for our child with additional needs was unacceptable. Since April, nothing meaningful was put in place and some of the reports written about my daughter’s progress were inaccurate, lost & falsified. Yanique should have investigated this and the person responsible, but nothing was done. As parents, this was extremely upsetting and far below the standard any family should expect. My partner worked at Busy Bees for nearly eight years, yet her formal request for a term-time position was ignored for months. Management promised to help her find a solution but never followed through, and when she finally made the difficult decision to resign, Yanique didn’t even have the decency to acknowledge or reply to her resignation email. That alone says a great deal about the lack of respect and professionalism shown. After the way our family was treated, our children as attendees and my partner as a long serving employee, we have completely lost confidence in this nursery. We would not recommend Busy Bees Shenley based on how these situations were handled. However i would like to thank and praise, Bria, Libby, Olivia, Shannon, Cherry and Tracey for there outstanding work and professionalism, there passion shows and has positively affected the children. If you are looking through this nurseries reviews to consider making a decision for your childs attendance here i would strongly consider the facts stated here to conclude your decision.

We are extremely happy with the care and education provided at Busy Bees Shenley. The staff are professional, caring, and highly qualified, offering a personalised approach to each child’s development. My child enjoys a range of stimulating activities, both indoors and outdoors, which promote creativity and social growth. The nursery is clean, well-equipped, and welcoming, creating a positive environment for learning. Communication with parents is excellent and also using the Busy Bees App, with regular updates and a strong focus on partnership. I’ve always felt informed and reassured about my child’s progress. Overall, Busy Bees Shenley provides a nurturing and enriching experience, and I highly recommend it to other parents looking for quality Childcare.

Excellent full day nursery with great facilities and a large outdoor play area for every age group. Children are very well looked after by qualified and genuinely caring, warm staff. My little boy has been attending the nursery since he was 13 month old and i am very happy with the service. All my personal requests are being met and i have a peace of mind knowing my boy is well looked after. After looking at many nurseries in the area i can say with confidence busy bees shenley is the best one.
