Does anyone know, or has their LO in Busy Bees Meridian Norwich? My LG is currently in the Yarmouth one (closer to work) but looking to transfer to Meridian as we live down the road? Was wondering if anyone has any reviews on the Meridian one?
Yarmouth is a lot more modern than the Meridian one but modern doesn’t always mean better I guess! Just need some help making a decision as she does currently love going to nursery but she’s stuck in the car for 1.5/2 hours 3 days a week.
Thank you!

We use Norwich Thorpe and love it!! Heard brilliant things about Meridian as we have friends who have used it or go there!

I am trying to get into Thorpe! They’re going to call me back either today or early next week to see if they have space but spaces have become available at Meridian and it is so much more convenient for us I don’t want to lose them! I’m glad you’ve heard good things! X

We use Norwich Meridian. My little girl has been going since around 1 years old. She’s now three and is thriving! I looked around the Thorpe one behind bannatynes too, but just got a nicer vibe off the Meridian one. She does three days there now. There are cheaper nurseries out there, but we don’t regret sending her there at all as she’s got lovely bonds with so many of the members of staff, and has made a lovey little friendship group! 🩷

thank you so much! Im so apprehensive about doing the move because Meridian is a lot older and bigger than Yarmouth and my LO does LOVE Yarmouth but all her key workers keep leaving! x

Tbh staff retention seems pretty high here, my little girl has only had to say good bye to one room leader (who was literally worshipped by the children!) How old is your little girl? I was daunted at first by how big it is, but it’s split into 7 rooms and they often seem to have floating staff who move between certain rooms, so your child will have chance to create bonds with loads of workers. Most of my child’s favourites have in fact been girls who weren’t her dedicated key worker! Good luck in whatever you choose, always happy to answer any other questions you may have if you decide to make the move ☺️ x

that’s good to hear! She’s 17 months so would be going straight to Bombos 2 rather than getting used to 1 for a month and then moving to 2. It will be so much better for her, less travelling in the car. More time with me and her dad. Just the move I’m worried about. Nervous that she won’t settle there xx
