A highly qualified and professional team with a range of experience across the childcare sector.

About

our New England setting

Busy Bunnies New England opened in September 2012. We offer places for 60 children aged 3 Months-5 years. Our opening hours are Monday-Friday 8.00am-3.30pm term time only, however holiday club is available at our Braybrook Setting. We can offer morning sessions (9.00am-12.00pm), afternoon sessions (12.30pm-3.30pm) or all day sessions between the hours of 8.00am-3.30pm. For children staying for lunch we ask that you provide a healthy packed lunch (we will provide a handout on what a healthy lunch box consists of). We try to be as flexible as we can with our hours as we understand how important it is to find a space for your child that will accommodate your requirements. We have two rooms within the Setting to help cater for each child’s needs; a Toddler Room, and a Pre-School room, with a large shared garden space.

We’d love for you to come visit us.

More About Us

We have funded spaces available for 2, 3 and 4 year olds. For more information please contact us. Within our built for purpose Nursery, our fully qualified, passionate and motivated practitioners focus on supporting the unique qualities and learning of every child. We will always accommodate for children’s interests and celebrate each child’s individuality, ensuring that their time at the Setting is a fun and happy learning experience.

Nutritional Info

At Busy Bunnies Nurseries healthy living is something that is very important to us. We will always provide children with varied, healthy snacks throughout the day and we change our snack menu termly to ensure that children are provided with a wide range of foods. Two of our Settings have healthy cooked lunches provided. We ask our parents who provide a packed lunch for their child to ensure that the food in the children’s lunch boxes are healthy and nutritious. We do provide some healthy lunch ideas to those who may be struggling with ideas for their child’s lunch.

Tapestry

We use something called Tapestry which can be accessed via a web browser or downloaded on a smartphone. This is essentially an online learning journal where parents can see what their child has been achieving, as well as add your own observations for your child. We also publish newsletters/information on Tapestry so that our parents can easily access this. We have also found that some of our families that speak English as an additional language are able to translate information from the app so that they have a better understanding of information we provide.

OFSTED Inspection

Busy Bunnies New England was inspected in January 2017 and was awarded a ‘GOOD’ grade by OFSTED. We continue to strive to invest in each child’s future through the development of creativity and encouraging the children to move freely in the nursery, and allowing them to make choices, we aim to develop each child’s full potential in an enjoyable, safe and stimulating environment.

*The Hampton Water is still awaiting inspection due to being newly registered.
