Extremely professional nursery, friendly and welcoming staff. Very approachable. Any queries or issues are taken professionally. Love the Montessori learning. My son has learnt a lot from this learning style. The teachers are excellent and my son has developed a lot from this. Would definitely recommend this nursery.
Bith my boys have been very happy at the nursery I think they set eldest up very well for starting school he was confident and happy.
This is a fantastic nursery. Great facilities, lovely location and dedicated staff. My son has been attending since he was a 11 months old. He learns something new every day and he developed a lot through play and activities at nursery. I also love that they play outside in the fresh air every day, which I think is extremely important. We are very grateful to the staff for looking after our son.
My daughter loves Buttercups and her teachers. She looks forward to going to nursery and that gives me peace of mind. I love how they always celebrate every occasion and make things special for the kids, being a working mum I feel less guilty leaving my child. The facilities are also good, very clean and safe. I get daily debrief without having to ask and given all the changes and adjustments because of the pandemic, the staff have all been truly amazing and adjusting.
Buttercups at Chalfont is wonderful. I feel happy knowing that my daughter is in a safe environment, even in the current climate with COVID19. I'm constantly informed of what's going on at the nursery and get lovely updates/pictures of what my daughter has been doing. She is very happy there, she goes in with a big smile for the staff.
My son has been attending Buttercups at Chalfont for the past 3 years and he is loving it! Every morning he’s super excited to go to school. From a parent’s point of view - I’m really pleased with the way the nursery send daily updates via email as well as sharing pictures of what the children been up to every day.
Our son has been at Chalfont Buttercups for two years and he is now leaving to start school. He has enjoyed every minute and the staff have been absolutely amazing. Facilities and teaching methods are excellent with Montessori being a central point in helping children to develop. A great addition has been the forest school where he has been learning about the environment, getting some useful life skills and independence. He will be leaving lots of happy memories and well prepared for the next challenge. We are very proud of the progress he has made. He has been encouraged to try his very best. A big thank you to all the staff, you have made a great job.
Our two boys moved to Buttercups from another nursery nearby. From the outset, they were made to feel welcome and loved by the staff. We had a very good feeling about the place, which has continued to this day. The facilities are excellent, including the montessori classroom and montessori resources. The playground has a very well set up forest school. The overall ambiance is positive and happy. The boys minds and bodies are developed every day, and we notice how curious and adventurous they have become. We pick up two very happy and tired little boys at the end of every day, who tell us all about it on the way home.
Both my children have attended this nursery and are now at school. I feel they were given the best possible start to their education. The Montessori way of learning helped my children become independent and the teacher was outstanding. She had such a great way with the children and both mine really loved her. On the whole, this nursery is fantastic and I can't recommend it enough.
Both my children have been attending since January 2019 and have really enjoyed nursery. They have made friends and the staff are very helpful, accommodating, friendly and feel like family. I would highly recommend.
We love Buttercups, especially the staff, as does my child.
My son has been at the nursery for just over a year and during that time he has developed and grown so much. The nursery has provided a warm and supportive environment in which to grow. The Montessori classes are a highlight of his learning and they allow him to explore new concepts and ideas in a wonderful learning environment. We are very happy with the setting and thoroughly recommend it.
I would like to thank Buttercups Hub for looking after my child. He will miss you all especially two staff members. One member has been amazing to him and also all the other staff. Thanks. Also, another of the staff has been extremely great and helpful.
Our son has been at Buttercups for a few years and has always been happy. There is a great balance of learning and fun, Could not be happier.
The level of care and attention has been good and allowed for our son to flourish. He particularly enjoys the aspects of Montessori which has encouraged his creativity and curiosity always wanting to now explore and do experiments. We really like the concept of Forest School and lots of outdoor activities and a chance for the kids to do outdoor play and "Bend/Strech". We look forward to the daily email updates and weekly sway where we can see the photos and looks of happiness and joy on the kids faces as they interact and learn with each other.
We are just coming to the end of our eldest son’s time at Buttercups Chalfont, and we have another working his way through. We have nothing but praise for the nursery, over the years we have seen a huge level of investment in the facilities, and now the nursery setting is fantastic for children of all ages. All members of staff are caring, but above all seem to really enjoy making learning fun for the children. The addition of the on-site forest school has really made a difference in the way the children think and interact with nature, and this is a pleasure to see. Our eldest will miss the teachers (and the food), but they seem to have prepared him well for the next adventure, school.
My two sons have attended nursery from the age of one through to starting school. They have always been extremely happy there and made some great friends. They are very well prepared for school with a wide range of activities covering Montessori, phonics, Maths, science, daily yoga and of course all the fantastic play in the wonderful garden and forest school. They have invested a lot in recent years in bringing the three rooms up to date with fantastic facilities, very clean and well managed. I would highly recommend Buttercups to anyone.
Our daughter transferred to Buttercups from another nursery and the difference in her and the quality of care is vast. She has thrived since joining Buttercups. It is obvious that the teaching staff here are extremely caring and friendly. The children take part in a vast range of activities, both fun and educational such as baking and learning how to dress and undress etc. The outdoor space for each age group has recently been renovated and is now purpose built. Each week the menu varies and always incorporates healthy food with a good variety. Overall, we are extremely pleased with the nursery.
Our son joined Buttercups just before lockdown and is now back full time. We have been impressed by how well the team have adapted to the new regulations and demands put upon them. We feel that our son is in a safe environment.
One more practical note - drop off and collection are greatly helped by the amount of parking spaces on the business park. It makes such a difference having a quick turnaround in the morning.
My son has learnt so much here, he enjoys his day thoroughly. There is such a range of daily activities, yoga, Montessori, forest school and the fantastic outdoor garden. The nursery has taught my son to be interested in learning, he comes home wanting to try things he has learnt about during the day. The teachers are fantastic, caring and nurturing.
