About this day nursery
Nik Nik's Bizzy Bees is a childcare provider that originated in 2004 as a childminding service before expanding into a full nursery in 2019. They pride themselves on offering a fun, responsible, and nurturing environment for children of various age groups.
The nursery is structured with dedicated spaces for babies up to 2 years old (New Bees), 2-year-olds (Two Bees), 3-5 year olds (Bee Three), and even an out-of-school club for older children (Big Bees) to keep them engaged and entertained. There's also an 'Inbeetween Room' catering specifically to older babies and younger two-year-olds.
The team of 18 dedicated staff members ensures a safe and inviting atmosphere, providing quality care and support for children as they transition into nursery life. They aim to alleviate daily stress for parents by offering flexible childcare options, whether it's for one day or five days a week.
