Very friendly staff that show care and attention towards every child. Great facilities and learning space and a great method of teaching for young children. My child has been in attendance for almost a year and has drastically improved in his speech and communication skills. He has also learned many daily life skills and the nursery have set up a support plan for him to further work on things he is behind on. The staff continuously update throughout the day on the app so you know what your child is up to and communicate very well with the parents. They also put on events for parents to attend regularly with their children. Our child genuinely loves this place and is always excited to go. 10/10 would recommend to any parent
We've had a wonderful experience with Busy Bees Montessori Nursery on Wapping Lane. I'm a mother of 2 children who have attended-my older son from 8 months until reception, and my 3.5-year-old who currently attends. We chose the nursery for its structure, people, and cleanliness, and it has fully met those expectations. The staff are incredibly warm and genuinely invested in each child's growth. I'm consistently impressed by the focus on independence and practical life skills-tidying up, pushing in chairs, using manners, and building confidence. I also love that the children go out on daily walks, giving them opportunities to explore the world beyond the nursery. The team works closely with and supports us through potty training, developmental challenges, and family changes-we truly see them as partners. My older son left not only prepared academically, but knowing how to be a good friend, care for himself, and enjoy learning. That foundation set him up for real success in reception.
My son has been loving the nursery, he now looks forward to being there, he loves all the activities. I love getting updates and pictures from his day on the app. Very welcoming and friendly carers, which is the main reason that I am giving 5 stars to the nursery!
Most importantly, I feel confident that my daughter is in a safe and nurturing environment, which is extremely important to me as a parent.
Thank you for your continued commitment and excellent work.
We happily recommend the nursery to future parents!
Thanks a lot team for taking care of our children!
My daughter has been with the nursery for nearly an heat now. The nursery is fantastic - very welcoming and friendly. Whilst the facilities could be better, the staff really makes up for it. And they do follow the Montessori principles. It's lovely to see.
My 2 year old started in September and settled in very quickly. He looks forward to nursery and enjoys the variety of learning and time with the staff. He seems to be liking the the food and outside activities too. The Monterssori model is great for early years and teaching children independence. The staff are a lovely experienced bunch and look after the kids well. I am really impressed with how quickly my child has learnt things over the last few months and glad we chose this branch.
The regular updates and photos through the app have been reassuring and greatly appreciated.
We are so impressed with Montessori by Busy Bees Green Gables Wapping! Our child has blossomed since starting there. Montessori Approach: We love that the nursery uses the Montessori method. It's been amazing to see our child's independence, curiosity, and confidence grow through the hands-on learning activities. Caring Staff: The staff are truly wonderful. They are attentive, nurturing, and passionate about early childhood education. They take the time to get to know each child and create a supportive and stimulating environment. Overall Experience: We can't recommend Montessori by Busy Bees Green Gables Wapping highly enough. It's a fantastic nursery that provides a nurturing and educational environment for our child.
We are so pleased that your child is enjoying their time with us and that we are able to provide your child the best start in life.
We are so pleased with Busy Bees. My son started there at six months old for three days/week because I had to go back to work. He got settled after ten days only. He improves there every day so much more than if he would have to stay at home with me. They do lots of activities for little ones. Also, we know that he is happy and safe there as we receive pictures and resumes of the day every day on the app. It’s such a good feeling to see my son being happy when he sees his key person in the morning. The ladies are just really good with babies, kind, smiley and professional as all the girls in Babies Room. My partner and I are really happy with Busy Bees.
The staff are welcoming and encouraging when it comes to trying new things.
The daily outings to the local library, local parks and around a part of London have helped his learning.
The wide variety of food on the menu means he gets to try and eat different things.
Moreover, he always tells me about his day and all that he has learnt.

Our little boy has been going to Green Gables Wapping for just under 2 years and he loves it. All of the staff are great, the chef is amazing and my son loves his trips to the park, the library and so many other great places! Thank you for taking such good care of our boy.
Hello, Wow! Thank you for this glowing review! We are delighted your little one is having a good experience at our Green Gables Wapping nursery. Best wishes, Montessori by Busy Bees Nurseries.
My daughter started this year in January, and she absolutely loves it. Her personality has changed as she's become more confident and outspoken. The teachers are very welcoming and attentive, which is a good sign that they enjoy their job. Please keep it up, and thank you!

I highly recommend Green Gables. It's such a lovely place for my child and as a parent. My child has been attending for over a year now, starting at only 12 months! The staff are kind, polite and supportive. They have a genuine interest in my child's development and take the time to converse with me at the end of the day to share any positive learning or information I need to know. Activities are well planned and resourced to engage children and I sincerely appreciate the staff for taking my child's interests into account when planning. He is having a blast at preschool and thoroughly enjoys his time.
She loves going to nursery and every day comes home with such a happy face. The nursery provides her with different activities each day and sends through photos to show us what she has been doing.
I couldn't recommend the nursery enough!
We have been sending our daughter to the Montessori by Busy Bees Green Gables nursery for more than 6 months now. She started when she was 8 month old, a few days a week and is now going full time, 5 days a week. The staff are amazing, very friendly, take into account feedback from parents, and always find ways to keep the babies/toddlers engaged. The facilities are very good, compared to other nurseries in the area, everything is pretty much new. Nice open space, good light, safe. The only downside is the lack of outdoor space, however, the staff takes the babies out once or twice a day when the weather allows eg; feeding the ducks by the canal and playing at the kid's outdoor space at the sister nursery across the road. We have recommended this nursery to our friends who just had a baby. Great place, which gives us peace of mind!
I started my, then 9-month-old, daughter at this nursery in March 2022 when I went back to work. The staff were kind and thorough and made the transition seamless for us. They all genuinely care about the children and provide regular feedback through the app and at pick-up. My daughter is so excited to go to nursery every day - they provide so many fun and educational activities, as well as regular trips outside. Very happy!
The staff in the baby room is amazing and they are helping our little girl to be curious and discover the world.
It's scary to leave your kid all day but the staff feel like family and we are so confident to leave her every day.
To all the staff, thank you for taking such good care of our girl.
We have been sending our son to the Montessori Nursery by Busy Bees Green Gables since March 2020. For obvious reasons, he was then home with us until August 2020. He started in the baby room and is now in the pre-school room. The staff have always been welcoming, and I'm impressed with what my son learns... everything from cleaning up after himself, to potty training, to counting and colors. We are so grateful to have the nursery and staff focused on his development, because they are an extension of our care for him. We also can't forget about the chef! Our son eats such a variety of food and was able to use utensils from early on, which we attribute to the food prepared and served. There isn't any outdoor space here, but they do take the children out for regular walks and into the local woods where they play games and run around. The app to communicate with parents gives us insight into his learning. We will be having our second child soon and plan on sending them here too.
