Every day is different and focussed on learning through play, we knew we had found somewhere special with our first virtual tour and in person meet up but you have all exceeded our expectation's.
As our first leaves for school we know she is leaving with the best start to her education and will be very sad to say goodbye to her Buttercups family.
Thank you for everything you do every day - nothing short of outstanding across the board.
Thank you so much for your lovely review and your feedback, working in partnership with you as a family is such a pleasure.
We as a family absolutely love Buttercups at Chalfont! Due to my work I had to put my little boy in from 7 months old and had never left him before . The staff in the orangery made me feel so at ease when he started his settling sessions ! He has never been upset going to nursery and he gets so excited going and has the best time and he adores the food. As a mum this is everything to me ! Two ladies are very much his favourites and they are truly wonderful and caring ! I made the best decision choosing Buttercups ! THANKYOU to all the staff for making my life easier to work knowing how well looked after he is .
Thank you so much for this lovely review! We love looking after your son and it is always heart warming to receive such lovely parent feedback.
Fantastic nursery, our son has thrived since joining and loves his time at Buttercups. We are very happy with all aspects of his care and development. The staff are kind and knowledgeable and take time to give detailed feedback daily.
Thank you so much for your kind review of our Nursery, we really enjoy looking after your son, and working in partnership with you.
I couldn't recommend it more highly!
Thank you so much for your kind review. It's such a pleasure to have taught and cared for your child during his early years education. We wish you all the best for his next adventure and miss you all very much!
My child has loved Buttercups at Chalfont from 4 months old. She's grown up to be very clever little girl, constantly in the Montessori room drawing and painting. She is very confident and independent.
Thank you so much for your review, it was a pleasure to teach and support your child through their early years education, we miss them very much already!
I cannot speak more highly of the staff at Buttercups Chalfont. They have gone above and beyond to ensure that our son has settled in and is happy. Every member of staff is always smiling, friendly, and kind - and it is so clear that our son loves them! The settling-in period was smooth and stress-free due to the regular updates that we would get throughout the day. The staff have always accommodated any particular requirements/routine that we have requested. The nursery is always clean and tidy, and it seems that our son really enjoys the food there! We truly feel that we have made the best decision by sending our son to Buttercups Chalfont.
Thank you so much for your lovely review; having your child with us at Buttercups is our pleasure.
The staff in The Orangery are professional and caring. We feel very reassured that our son is not only in safe hands but also having a fantastic time. The activities look varied and engaging and often involves messy play.
Thank you so much for your review and taking the time to give us your feedback which we very much value.
My son absolutely loves going to nursery, when we pick him up he is beaming and has lots to tell me. Getting to see every day what activities he's been doing is a real bonus. The staff have really been helpful with potty training, he eats a huge range of food since going as well. I love the relationships he has with the staff, I know he feels safe with his key workers and settles with them easily if upset. He has also made some lovely friendships with other children.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. Having your son at the nursery is our absolute pleasure.
We've had a wonderful experience since our son started at Buttercups - and our son is loving it too (as far as we can tell from his smiles and happy noises). The staff are consistently friendly, attentive and show their love and care for him. The team have been really helpful in working with us as parents around, for example, managing sleeping and eating patterns. The communication from the nursery has been clear and helpful - the daily updates, with photos and videos, are incredible. Helping create memories for us and our son. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much for your kind and warm review. It is an absolute pleasure to look after your son. We look forward to continuing this partnership throughout his time here at Buttercups.
We have now had our son at Buttercups since October and he loves it! He is excited to see his teachers every morning and can't wait to start the day. He has developed so quickly and the nursery has such an individual approach to each child to focus on their strengths as well as areas to progress. We couldn't be happier with our choice and feel like we are part of a very special family. Thank you!
We are delighted that you are part of our special family and your son is a pleasure to care for! Thank you for your feedback!
The staff is extremely friendly, loving and caring. They pay special attention to detail and teach my child a lot that she would probably not learn at home. The nursery sends newsletters every day with pictures of my baby so I can see what she has been up to. I am very happy with the overall experience.
Thank you so much for your lovely review, teaching and caring for your child is our absolute pleasure!
We really appreciate how hard the staff work to nurture and care for the children. Buttercups are attentive to our son’s individual needs and are very supportive to encourage his personal development. They offer a fantastic variety of activities including Montessori education, which was very important to us when selecting a nursery. He always leaves at the end of the day with a big smile on his face, clearly having had a wonderful day.
Thank you so much for your review, we are delighted your son loves our nursery and all the activities we have on offer.
The staff at Buttercups at Chalfont have been nothing but exceptional - always friendly, always smiling, and so positive. They truly go the extra mile to accommodate for our son's needs and routine. Our son has recently started at the nursery and we were so grateful to each of the staff for making the settling in process so stress-free and easy, both for us and for our son. They have given us great real-time feedback (including calls to let us know how he is getting on during the day), and the updates at the end of each day are fantastic. We get an email every evening letting us know what activities the children have been involved in alongside some photos, which we thoroughly enjoy looking at. Our son settled in after only a week and now looks forward to going to nursery and playing with all the staff and other children.
Thank you so much for your review and kind feedback. It is our pleasure to nurture and enrich your child's education and care needs.
Very good experience of the nursery. Excellent range of activities for the children on a daily basis. The staff are highly trained and have given my children a great experience.
My son is ready for school and that's all thanks to butter cups. He loves coming here and it's really helped build his confidence.
Staff are attentive, nurturing and loving. All three of my children love nursery - it is full of fun, a good range of activities and particularly impressed with the teaching in preschool, focusing on letter formation and phonics.
My son has been at Buttercups at Chalfont Day Nursery since he was 8 months old. He has learnt a lot and made great friends.
I was surprised how much she has learned. She is the most advanced child at her next school. She is able to write her name, do maths, list the planets and continents. Buttercups have installed a love for learning. We are very appreciative.
My son loves preschool, especially the Montessori.
My son struggled when he first joined but over the past two years has grown in confidence.
