My son really loves going to nursery - he doesn't even say goodbye at the entrance. He adores the nursery teachers, without exception. He eats well and receives proper, balanced nutrition, which makes things much easier for me as I work full time.
I can see how much he is growing, developing and learning new things, and I am surprised by him every single day. Creatively, the nursery provides him with activities that I cannot always offer at home, such as working with dough, painting and a variety of creative projects.
In short, when my son is at nursery, I feel calm and reassured.
They care a lot for the kids and look a lot after them.
The nursery is very very clean and the food they make for the kids is lovely and fresh
The little one is very happy
We will recommend it to all our friends.
My son recently started nursery and all the staff ensured that we had a smooth settling-in process. My son loves attending every day and I know and trust he is well looked afer and having fun. I have also seen his development has improved, which is great to see.
This nursery is fantastic, my child has learnt so much. The educators and management really go above and beyond for all children. There chef is amazing and always makes wonderful food for the children. We love Busy Bees, thank you for everything.
Staff are very attentive towards my child's needs and she is looked after well at the nursery. She has improved in her eating and enjoys the menu offered by the chef. She also loves the creative activities done by the staff and always has a beautiful piece of work to take home which makes mummy and daddy smile. Thank you so much for everything you do for my child. We really appreciate all of your hard work and love you all dearly.
I have already recommended the Busy Bees Finchley and I would definitely do it again. The communication with management is always up to date and accurate, the activities the kids have are always a variety and according to the kids' needs, the premises well maintained and clean , all the staff is very supportive to the parent and the kid. Overall i can say is the perfect environment for a child.
Montessori by Busy Bees Finchley is the most amazing nursery. All staff have been fantastic with my son since his attendance at the age of 18 months old. The standards, care, food and communication with parents I cannot fault. Not only do they care for our children and help them grow and achieve, but they also support parents/families and go the extra mile. I'll be sad for my son to leave.
Very happy with the nursery in general, and baby room in particular.
There is an app for parents to know what he ate, when his diaper was changed, sleep time and pictures.
The staff at Busy Bees are always smiling. Everyone always has a smile on their faces at drop off and pick up. My son has recently moved from baby room and absolutely loves it! It is clear just how much hard work, love, dedication and patience is put in on a daily basis. My daughter recently started reception and my son is ay Busy Bees, both love coming to school and it truly feels like a second home. Many thanks to everyone at Busy Bees, keep up the amazing work! We appreciate you!
The staff are lovely and really help my nephew to boost his development. They do so much with him and listen to all concerns and help to work on those. He loves going to nursery every day and is so happy when he walks in and they send photos every day to show you what they get up to and let you keep lots of memories of them and update you throughout the day on the parent app. They are all amazing in there.
Well-managed nursery with child development as a priority. School-ready skills are taught even in the nursery itself. Pretty sure that the same impetus is offered at preschool level. My child loves the food more than what is offered anywhere else. The best decision that we have made for our child's well-being and development is to choose BusyBees Finchley.
Hello, Wow! Thank you for this glowing review! We are delighted your little one is having a good experience at our Finchley nursery. Best wishes, Montessori by Busy Bees Nurseries.
My son loves the nursery. They do so much with him and the staff are all very friendly and supportive. They also organise lots of events and engage with the parents. I’m very pleased with the overall care and positive atmosphere
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review! We’re glad you’re giving your little one the best start in life with us. Best Wishes.
Wonderful staff team, calm and clean environment. Great meals and daily updates on children's progress. My son is really happy here, he settled in really quickly and has made some special friendships.

My daughter loves Busy Bees, they always encourage activities she enjoys as well as introducing new ideas and concepts. Busy Bees has a very welcoming atmosphere and the staff are all friendly and always have a smile on their faces. Even throughout lock down the care and education standards never slipped. The chef always provided amazing home-cooked meals, which my daughter loves. She loves eating with her friends and trying new exciting foods. Busy Bees was our first choice preschool and we love it, our son will also be starting soon.
Our daughter joined the nursery a couple of months ago (at 1 year old) and the staff have been amazing to help her settle down, which happened very quickly. She is always so happy when we drop her off in the morning and joyful when she comes back home with us. To us, this proves that she is taken really good care of, which contributes to build her serenity and self confidence. We love to receive regular feedback on her days through the parent app, and from the teachers at pick up. We are fully satisfied with the nursery and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a special and warm daycare for their kids.
My son started at this nursery last September and I am very happy with his progress. The staff and management team have been so friendly and professional at all times and always willing to help with any problems we have.
My daughter started going to the nursery in February 2021 when she was almost ten months. We were surprised how quickly she settled in and how she managed to eat and sleep there from day one. The staff are very caring, kind and they keep you updated with eat, sleep, nappy changes and activities using an app. The babies spend a lot of time playing in the garden and doing arts and crafts. My daughter always has a big smile when she enters the nursery and she sees her key worker. In less than two months, she has improved a lot with her gross motor and communication skills. I couldn't be happier for her and being a full time working mum, knowing that she has fun really put my mind at ease.
Both my children attend Montessori by Busy Bees Finchley. They both enjoy their time at the nursery and I feel happy with the staff. One is in the baby room and the other is in Totto's. I have seen them thrive and develop every day. I have no hesitation in recommending the nursery.
The staff and management are very professional yet warm and nurturing towards the kids and that makes all the absolute difference.
I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a safe, nurturing and happy nursery.
