Montessori by Busy Bees Wandsworth

Great nursery, my son attends full time and started there six months ago. The team in the baby room are fantastic and really made the settling in the process during the pandemic as good as possible. My son loves going to nursery, there are no tears at drop off now; he practically runs in. The team do lovely activities and lots of painting, going out to the park/outings as much as possible (pandemic allowing). The nursery team have acted quickly on feedback and improved daily communication by means of an app with notifications for nappies, naps and meals and updates on activities, with some pictures too. The only downside of the nursery is a small outdoor space, however, what space they do have, it is used well and there are plans to develop it with plants. I have no hesitation in recommending this nursery, the team is great!

My daughter is 3 and has attended Busy Bees nursery since when she was 2 years old. Overall the nursery is lovely, staff are very reliable and always update me with what my daughter has done that day and how she has gotten on. Staff are really caring towards the children in general, my daughter is really happy there, have never had any issues whatsoever, she enjoys playing with her friends and speaks about them all the time at home. Her speech progression has also got really well since being at the nursery, which is one thing I was really worried about in the beginning, but my daughter has definitely come a long way since attending Busy Bees. The nursery is clean, toilets are also very clean compared to other nurseries I have visited in the past. I would definitely recommend anyone sending their child/children to Busy Bees. I can’t fault them for anything – any minor issues get resolved fairly quickly. The director of the nursery is also lovely.

I am extremely happy with the care my son received during his time at this nursery. He attended for a year before recently starting school and he developed so well in that time. The staff really care about the children and it is evident as the children love going there. The staff in the preschool room are amazing as well as the manager and deputy. They took great care of my son and were great at providing meals according to his allergies. My son did not want to leave and we both miss the nursery and staff very much.

Honestly the best nursery ever! The staff are amazing and super helpful and my son was so excited to go back after the summer holidays. With their hard work, he has thrived so much and they take great care of them. Keep up the hard work guys.

We started our son at 4 months, and now he’s 2 and we couldn’t be happier! He’s honestly thriving! His sister has recently joined and the staff are so welcoming and supportive of all the children’s needs. Highly recommend!

Our daughter started at the Montessori by Busy Bees Wandsworth nursery in January 2022 when she was two and has been extremely happy there. With caring, friendly staff, our daughter has thrived in a nurturing environment that has helped build her confidence. She has required additional support with her speech and language development and the nursery has been proactive in helping us access the right professional support and complementing that with the activities they do with her in the nursery setting. Our daughter is particularly fond of her primary carer, who is excellent. The nursery provides lots of opportunities to engage parents (e.g Mother’s and Father’s Day Breakfasts, reading for World Book Day etc) and provides regular detailed feedback. Our daughter loves the weekly trips to the Oasis Nature Garden and the variety of activities, such as baking, music and arts and crafts. All of this has culminated in a very well-deserved Ofsted Outstanding rating last year!

Busy Bees Wandsworth has exceeded our expectations in every way. The communication between the nursery and parents is excellent. The teachers provide regular updates on my child’s progress and they are always available for parent-teacher conferences and discussions. The Montessori approach, dedicated teachers, inclusive atmosphere and strong communication and focus on nature-based learning have provided my child with an excellent foundation for lifelong learning. I feel confident that my child is receiving the best possible care and education and I highly recommend them to any parent seeking an exceptional Montessori education for their child.

Our son has been attending this nursery for 2 years now. It was such an easy decision for us as when we first took him to see it, unlike other places we went to visit, he straight away made himself at home and started playing and exploring. We haven’t looked back since! It’s still his favourite place with its fully equipped facilities, big outdoor area, regular trips to the nature garden, varying learning activities, wonderful application of Montessori principles, delicious food which allowed our son to be a very experimental eater. But most importantly, it’s the staff! So much care, so much genuine fondness and interest that we can see them having towards our son and all the children that attend is so moving to witness on a daily basis. We’ll sadly be moving on to primary at the end of summer and everything about this place will be sorely missed!

Fantastic childcare from Montessori by Busy Bees Wandsworth. Great team, decent facilities, excellent environment for the children. Good mix of indoor and outdoor activities. Flexible and accommodating with requests for individual children (for example to provide for one of our girls, who has a hearing disability). Very attentive to the individual child. Ambitious yet supportive for their development. Diligent in monitoring their progress. All round passionate about their work and a great service. Thank you Busy Bees Wandsworth Team!

Just want to say all the staff are amazing! My Son has been attending this nursery since the age of 1.5 years old and has been loving it since. Special shout out to the assistant centre director who is always smiling and caring, she is the star of the nursery. Do not lose her please. Promote her instead. Keep up the good work.
