This nursery is located in Bristol but there are Busy Bees nurseries wherever you need them. You'll find them nestled by universities, tucked close to train stations, attached to hospitals, and snuggled down quiet streets in towns and cities, perfectly placed for drop-offs and pick-ups. Some are based in small, cosy homes, others in office buildings - and we even have one in a converted church. Every nursery is as unique as its children, but whichever you choose you can look forward to exceptional quality childcare, NHS-accredited food menus, enriching curriculum and exciting environments that give your child the best start in life.

- LCLauren CrooksJun 15, 20261.0If I could give 0 stars I would. My autistic daughter attended this nursery for quite a while, I had to fight for her to get basic adjustments such as being allowed flavoured water and a packed lunch from home. They to do an EHCP application for my daughter despite telling me for several months they would. Upon request to extend my daughter’s hours in preparation for school (she only attended 3 hrs a day) . I was told that the pre-school room was full. I had a friend ring up the nursery to see if there was any space for ‘her daughter’ and lo and behold they confirmed there was availability. I immediately removed my daughter from the nursery because the manager not only discriminated but tried to make excuses to cover her disgusting actions, she then proceeded to share a post on her personal Facebook about stating that ‘declining care of a SEN child wasn’t discrimination, it’s accountability’ Not once did they tell me they could no longer meet her needs, and if they would’ve just done this, I’d have totally understood. Instead they bare-faced lied to me. Also, staff members park in the disabled bay, when I complained to the manager about this she put a message out to parents and then proceeded to park in the disabled bay herself!!!! Another thing is during a phonecall with the SEN lead about a complaint, my neurodivergence was mentioned by her and I was told that I’m sensitive. Oh and not to mention that if the handover is seen as ‘too long’ by the manager, staff will say ‘I better go back in before I get in trouble’. Having spoke to several different parents and previous staff members from the nursery i have been told that the staff speak down to children and in a disgusting manner. So many children scream and cry going into the nursery every single morning, which is most definitely not just the usual separation anxiety. Staff have no passion about actually caring for the children, especially if they are SEN.
- VCVictoria CrothallMar 18, 20265.0Very happy with the care provided by the staff at Busy Bees, as well as the overall management and running of the centre. Thank you very much to all the hard working staff and key workers, including Gracie and Ally, who are both extremely caring, patient, helpful and kind.
- MMMichaelaFeb 27, 20265.0My toddler has been attending this nursery for a couple of months now and she loves it! The staff throughout the nursery are professional and welcoming! Jayla, Amy, Sasha and the team in toddlers are fantastic! They do so many activities and learning throughout the day. You are also kept updated with pictures, your child’s meals and how much they eat, toilet trips/nappy changes and their naps throughout the day on the app. I was really nervous about sending my daughter to nursery however, I’m so happy I came across this one and decided to send her here!
- TBtamara bradleyFeb 26, 20265.0My daughter has been at Bust Bees for over a year and a half. The staff are fantastic with her. They do loads of activities with them and she always comes home happy and asks about the staff on the weekend! Big shout out to Dana and her team in toddlers, brilliant with my little girl (even when she is being a cheeky monkey!) and always greet us with a smile!
- JHJoe HatherallFeb 23, 20265.0Had 2 children at Busy Bees Emerson's Green, the staff are fantastic (special mention to Dana in toddlers!).
Frequently Asked Questions About Busy Bees in Emersons Green
Can I pay for hourly childcare?
We're afraid not – sorry. If you'd like a place at a Busy Bees nursery, your child will need to come along for at least two half sessions, or one full day, each week. Speak to your local nursery about your specific needs - they'll be more than happy to help.
Can my child come to nursery for just one day a week?
Yes, they certainly can! You can book a minimum of two half-day sessions or one full day each week. Just talk to your local nursery to discuss exactly what you need.
Do I need to pay extra for meals and snacks while my child is at nursery?
Your child's meals and snacks are all covered in your nursery fee, so you won't need to make any additional payments. Their nursery place includes breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a variety of tasty snacks throughout the day, and we can cater for all kinds of dietary requirements and allergies as well as fussy eaters. Just talk to your nursery team if your child has any specific needs. You can take a look at an example menu on our website in the "Eating Well" section.
Do you offer creche facilities?
Sorry, we don't offer creche facilities at Busy Bees nurseries. You'll need to book a minimum of two half-day sessions or one full day at nursery each week to book a place. Have a chat with your local nursery if you'd like to know more.
Do you offer funded places?
Of course! We know it's not always easy to cover the costs of childcare, so we're pleased to offer a variety of funding options at our nurseries – including 30 hours funded childcare. If you're not sure whether you qualify, speak to your local nursery to work out the right funding option for you. You can find more about childcare funding at Busy Bees in the "Quality Childcare" section of our website.
Do you offer taster sessions?
Yes, we do – we call them settling-in sessions. If you're interested in a settling-in session, start by booking a visit to your local nursery; they can tell you more about how it works.
Do you provide nappies?
Whether or not we provide nappies varies from nursery to nursery. In some, we offer an all-inclusive package that covers nappies for children under 2. In others, we ask parents to provide their own. Talk to your local nursery to check whether you'll need to supply your own nappies.
Do your nurseries have gardens?
Yes, they do! All of our nurseries have wonderful, fully equipped outdoor spaces for your child to explore. We plan every space carefully to extend learning opportunities, inspire creativity and – just as importantly – provide different ways to play. Resources like our mud kitchens, trikes and more are always available for children to use, and we run special activities outdoors too. Find your local nursery to learn more about their facilities.
How do I find my nearest nursery?
Simple! Just go on our website and click "Find your nursery". There are over 350 nurseries in the Busy Bees Group across the UK, that deliver high quality childcare and exciting learning opportunities that give every child a head start as they prepare for school.
How do I set up an account for UP?
If you are a Busy Bees parent, just enter the email address you have registered with nursery. This will be the same email that your invoices are sent to. If you are not sure which email address you have used you can check with your nursery manager. If you are a Busy Bees practitioner, your manager will provide you with your log in details.
How will I know if my child is settling in?
Starting nursery is an emotional time, for you as well as for your child. After all, it’s a big step! So, we’ll do everything we can to help your child settle in and give you peace of mind.
Before your child starts nursery, you're welcome to come for a settling-in session. During the session, you'll have the chance to watch your child explore nursery and interact with other children and staff. We'll also assign your child a Key Person. Their Key Person is your dedicated contact while your child is at nursery, and they'll keep you updated on their progress each day. If there are any problems at all, they'll let you know. Speak to your local nursery if you'd like to know more about settling-in sessions.
I don't have a child at a Busy Bees nursery; can I use the UP app?
Sorry – only parents of Busy Bees children and educators at Busy Bees will be able to use the app. It’s all part of how we give the children at our nurseries their very best start in life.
My child's a really fussy eater. Can I send them to nursery with a packed lunch?
For lots of children and for all kinds of reasons, food can be a bit tricky. In fact, that’s exactly why we don’t allow packed lunches or snacks from home at our nurseries; many of the children in our care have allergies, and we just can’t put their safety at risk.
Instead, we provide fresh and tasty breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snacks at every one of our nurseries. Our menus are healthy, varied, and NHS approved, and we cater for special dietary requirements, cultural food choices, allergies, and fussy eaters, so every child can look forward to tasty food they love to eat. It’s all covered in your nursery fee, too. You can take a look at an example menu on our website in the "Eating Well" section.
What will I find on the UP app?
Our UP learning programme is jam-packed with activities and information, all designed to help your child learn and grow. You'll find professional advice from our team of experts on everything from healthy eating to preparing for school, as well as hundreds of activities for you to try. There are even 50 songs to listen, sing, and dance to with your child, recorded just for Busy Bees. You can learn more about UP on our website.
What's the UP app?
UP is Busy Bees unique learning programme and app, inspired by our promise to give children the best start in life, in and out of nursery.
"UP" stands for "Unleashing Potential", because that's exactly what we've designed this programme to do. Made for children aged 0 to 5, it's filled with an inexhaustible range of activities and advice for every age and stage of nursery children, and the app puts it all at parents fingertips. You can learn more about UP on our website.

Then, if you decide to book a nursery place during the event, you'll receive an extra special offer* – it's our way of welcoming you to the family. Talk to your local nursery if you’d like to know more.
