Montessori by Busy Bees North Chiswick

I can't recommend enough this nursery! My husband and I were looking not just for the famous Montessori method, but even for a modern place where our 4 months old could have been very comfortable. Yes: I had to go back at work after only four month and an half of maternity leave, and this is why my very little boy need the right place. It is now almost one year my baby is there and he has enjoyed it since day one. Nothing is perfect, but what I can tell is that the professionalism I found out over there is truly exceptional: Siobhian, the Center Director, is a great listener who is always available and willing to help, supported by the great Erika who has shown an incredible care too. The pearls are on the baby room: the manager Naila deserves all my respect and consideration for all the attention and care she gives to my child every day together with Nafisa, Marylin and Valerie: I couldn't ask for more! Thanks Ladies and please keep going!

Our daughter has been in the nursery since she was 1 year old and has always loved her time there, all her teachers have been incredibly kind and nurturing to her and she has made a lot of friends. The facilities are good, with indoor and outdoor spaces and Miss Siobham, Miss Erica and Miss Zenia are always working to have new activities for the children to try to expand their experience. When she starts school in September our daughter will surely miss her nursery.

Montessori Busy Bees North Chiswick was a truly wonderful experience for our family from start to finish. From the very first day, we felt that our child was in a warm, friendly, and caring environment - it genuinely felt like family. The daily variety of activities and learning topics encouraged children to think, explore, and grow in multiple ways, all through joyful and natural experiences. Each child was treated with respect, and there was genuine interest in their development and well-being. We were especially impressed by the excellent organisation. Communication via email was consistent, clear, and thoughtfully structured, always keeping us informed about the daily flow and the inspiring activities being carried out. A special place in our hearts belongs to the graduation party. It was a true celebration, filled with joy, emotion, dancing, and singing. It was evident that the teachers had poured love, care, and creativity into making it an unforgettable day. We are grateful!

I'd highly recommend Busy Bees to families in the area. My children have loved their time at the nursery. The best bit has been the staff. Incredibly kind, enthusiastic and welcoming, they always go above and beyond for the children, and they really care.

My child has been attending Montessori by Busy Bees North Chiswick for the past two years and absolutely loves going every day. The staff are incredible - so caring, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to the children's well-being. There are also plenty of fun and engaging activities organised for the kids, many of which include parents as well. It's a truly warm and welcoming environment, and I couldn't be happier with our experience.

It's a modern building, classroom is very spacious, and bright.

My daughter has been attending the nursery since she was one. Nearly two years on, and can't fault it. She has learned a lot of new things and is super excited about the activities she does every day. The teachers and staff are all very supportive and caring and take the feedback on board.

Our little boy has been attending the nursery since he turned 1 and we are so happy with how he has settled in over the last six weeks or so. The staff have been wonderful - especially the ladies in his room. He goes in smiling and is always happy and laughing when we pick him up. We feel he is safe and well cared for and seeing how much he seems to enjoy himself has made us feel so much better about leaving him. The staff keep in touch via a helpful app and we get to see photos of the varied activities the children have been doing (even Spanish lessons!). We also really enjoy the opportunity to attend the nursery for 'Stay and Play' sessions so we get to witness the fun firsthand! Thank you to all at Busy Bees North Chiswick for such conscientious and kind childcare. We are very grateful.

Thank you to you all at Busy Bees North Chiswick!

Fabulous nursery and friendly and professional staff. Without Busy Bees guidance and support, I wouldn’t have been able to manage. I feel so secure leaving my son there. I love the way they keep connection with parents with regular updates and events. Special, special thanks to one member of staff for always bringing in positivity.

I would love to take this opportunity to thank the assistant centre director who's always been there for help.

Very good experience. It is really a pleasure to spend some time in the school with my daughter. She was very surprised when I arrived at the school to play with her. The staff are super friendly. I hope that this experience will happen again.

The staff are careful with questions and comments so that is a good point as well.

Very happy with the setting and staff. They have made every effort with my son to make him feel comfortable, safe and happy. He comes home every day saying 'I love to be at busy bees'. Lots of activities to stimulate the children and promote their development. I have peace of mind when I drop him off each day that he will be looked after and cared for, which to me is very important.

Wonderful nursery run by really loving and professional people. I brought my daughter to this nursery when she was only 10 months old. I was devastated leaving her but the management and the key people looking after her have been so caring and supportive and she has settled in well. I feel like I can leave her and trust she will receive the best care. I really recommend this nursery, they are very accommodating and do everything they can to make things work if I need extra days. Highly recommend!

We are very pleased.

My daughter goes to this nursery since May 2022. The staff have been really helpful during the settling-in period as it took a while because of her not being used to being with people outside of family. I am really happy with the progress she has made so far, she is being more friendly with other children in general and she has learnt a lot. She comes home very happy and likes to share all the activities she has done during the day. I receive updates on her during the day through an app and it reassures me that she is doing well, whether she has eaten and what. The staff are amazing, and the management team very helpful.

Montessori by Busy Bees North Chiswick is an excellent nursery choice. I really appreciate their fun and academic activities which include plenty of sensory activities as well as age-appropriate content to help engage a growing and curious mind. My son always talks about the fun he's had and I see progress in his skills as a result. They have an outdoor space that is used (weather permitting) every day with freshly cooked meals on-site. The staff are caring and attentive - questions are answered quickly, time and care is taken in getting to know your child including how to comfort them if they are distressed or anything relating to their preferences to ensure they are comfortable. The Children all seem happy and I'm particularly grateful for the adjustments made to support my son's needs including dietary requirements and gross motor skills. Lastly, they are open from 8-6pm and closed only over Christmas. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any of my friends.

My son attended this nursery for one and a half months. We then, unfortunately, had to move. However, the time he spent there was wonderful, the staff were so lovely with him, he really had a good time there and I saw a developmental leap for him. He was playing independently a lot more and he learnt to sleep in different environments, which he hadn't until that point, he is a fussy sleeper and we were pleasantly surprised when he started taking naps there. I loved the rooms, so spacious and lots of lovely activities. Being in there during the settling-in sessions was really nice as I got to see what they did and they do a lot! The app is so great in updating you constantly on what your child is doing and it is great to see photos of your child during the day. I always found the space to be clean and food smells delicious. The staff were really friendly. The director is very nice and a great communicator. Thank you to five members of staff in particular. Highly recommend this nursery.

First I felt that the school was very safe with the friendly staff. Special thanks to supportive and understanding two staff members in particular who worked with me and the child on separation anxiety. I like that it's an educational-based facility with a small ratio of children and exposes your child to different aspects of learning through sensory and play. The classrooms are clean and maintained during the day. Although I wish there was an indoor shoes policy in place. Playground is spacious and secure which is really nice. They set up a splash pool for children attending during summer's heatwave. Age groups are separated most days across 2 floors in beautifully set up rooms (We miss the staff member who worked on that with her team). All my questions or requests are always kindly answered. Under the new director we are seeing less staff rotation. Good communication face to face and through using an app. Opened 51 weeks a year 8.00 - 18.00, food is provided, nutritious and delicious thanks to Chef.
