Our daughter has been really happy at Buttercups for the last couple of years. The staff are extremely friendly, caring and supportive and the teaching is great - she really enjoys the Montessori elements.
I can’t fault the level of care and attention both my children received, the staff are so lovely, newsletters etc very informative, the activities for the children are well thought out. I noticed my children were so happy to attend. A great early years school.
Buttercups Ealing Nursery has been a blessing to both of my children! The staff are so caring and passionate about the little ones, and the standard of teaching is very high. I would highly recommend the nursery.
Buttercups Ealing has been an eye-opener for us as a family. We finally found a nursery that supports, cares and motivates children. The nursery manager has been incredible. Not only is she caring of the children, she is also caring of the families. The children adore her and I couldn’t think of anywhere I’d rather leave my little boys. It is a safe, stimulating and engaging environment. It is run by a manager who adores children and is so passionate about their wellbeing and development. We tried another nursery in Ealing prior to this and a childminder but nothing compares to the happiness we have seen in our son since starting buttercups. Our little boy has had some challenging health issues and the manager has been so kind and with us along the whole process. We feel like it’s a home from home environment where he can thrive. I have recommended this nursery to friends and would recommend it to anyone. A child’s happiness is key and this is a place of joy.
We have one daughter that has completed nursery, having joined at six months old and another who started a year ago. Our experience at Buttercups has honestly been excellent. Both girls have thrived under the care of the excellent staff and it is clear they are genuinely cared for. Buttercups was a lively and happy nursery when we first joined however they have continued to invest and progress as a nursery year on year. There are multiple rooms that are well-staffed, this means the girls have received appropriate attention and there is clear educational progression as you advance through nursery. There is an excellent outdoor area that is used daily and there is a wide variety of activities that the children undertake, including external visits, sports, dance and IT. Both daughters have clearly been very happy at nursery and I believe Buttercups has put them in the best possible place to start school with confidence.
Receptive to feedback. Caring staff, show interest in children.
My son is an extremely shy boy who attended Buttercups at Ealing 2 days a week and only recently became full time. While he was 2 days a week, my son would be very distressed at drop off but no matter how busy, a member of staff would cuddle him until he settled down which could last quite a while. Their patience and care for him was outstanding despite the additional attention required (compared to others) and never made us feel like a burden. Since becoming full time, he has formed stronger relationships with other children and through the varied curriculum including Montessori, I’ve noticed my son’s confidence sky-rocket. From an incredibly shy boy, he has transformed into someone who now relishes speaking in front of others through show and tell and even danced in front of an audience at the Easter Parade. I’m so proud of his development and am certain that this is down to the incredible staff and their ability to mentally stimulate and make learning fun.
She learns new activities almost daily and she is singing new rhymes also with actions. I would definitely recommend to someone.
From the time I placed my son at Buttercups at Ealing Nursery when he was 8 months old I had no worries. My son was happy during the settling in. He gets on so well with the staff and always happy to see them. They keep you updated with weekly newsletters and regular emails. The staff are lovely and friendly and the management is very approachable. I am very satisfied with the care that my son receives.
My son has been at nursery since April 2017. He started off such a shy boy who would not socialise or feel comfortable around others. However, since starting he has become so confident and has developed so much in all areas. Everyone in my life has seen such a big improvement. He has a great bond with all of the staff at the nursery. I feel comfortable leaving him as I know he is happy, safe and enjoys going each day. The nursery offers a great variety of meals which he enjoys and helps me at home.
Buttercups at Ealing is a truly admirable nursery with an inspirational team behind it that have worked to transform children’s early years learning. They are friendly and very helpful, I would definitely recommend this incredible nursery to parents of children 0-5 years. Both my children have attended this nursery and my daughter is still attending. I am very grateful for their fantastic service. My daughter comes home very happy from nursery and is always eager to go every morning.
Brilliant nursery. Don't know what I would do without them. They give my son very good care and, more so, a lot of fun!
Very good nursery. All the teachers are loving and caring. My son had a tough settling in but since then is just loving it. Cannot wait to go to the nursery every morning(which hurts a bit). All my thanks to the staffs.
My daughter has just started with settling in period and I like the idea of letting her decide who the key person should be by looking at who she will get close to.
I can not recommend the team at Buttercups at Ealing enough, so much care, attention and fun is put into every day that my son joins them at the nursery.
The energy that the team puts into each day is so visible and it’s such a nurturing environment all the children seem so happy!
My son attends three days a week and has loved every day with the preschool group. He joined the poppies group when he was around 2 and a half and after a short break, we have rejoined Buttercups as he loves it so much.
All the staff are so familiar and wonderful to all the children which makes the whole house so inviting for the children to come into every morning.
Our son began attending Buttercups at Ealing last year when we moved to Ealing and he loves the nursery. He is very happy to go and the staff is amazing: the teachers are very kind and supportive and the children have a lot of fun. He learns every day and grows serenely! The manager has always been particularly careful and attentive to our child needs and our doubts. I would surely recommend this nursery!
Overall a good nursery with very friendly staff. It was the nature of the staff that made me choose Buttercups over other nurseries in Ealing, despite it being the most expensive. The nursery is however quite small and does get congested around drop off and pick up time. But I think they've made the best of the space they have. They recently introduced a Montessori room and my son loves Montessori classes. The kids partake in a wide variety of activities and clubs. Overall, both my children are very happy here.
The nursery provides amazing healthy meals and my child is so excited when approaching the nursery, the whole team is amazing and has provided amazing care and teaching!! I will definitely bring my second child as well.
The older section also has an amazing Montessori equipped room, a perfect combination of the EYFS.
Fantastic Childcare!!
My son has attended the nursery five days a week full time since he was six months old. The staff are wonderful and he is enjoying his time in the nursery. I feel that the care is excellent and the staff are very close to the children. The feeling is that of a large family. The garden is big and the children get a lot of outdoor time. Sometimes communication is a bit lacking but overall we have been very happy with the nursery.
I visited many other nurseries in Ealing and Buttercups has the best baby room I have seen. It has a separate sleeping room with cots which is very nice.
As parents, we can relax knowing our child is being looked after by caring professionals.
