I have my daughter going to this nursery from the age of 1 and she is now 3. She will definitely graduate from there for Reception School! We are very happy with her progress and she is also very happy. Every day she is going and leaves school with a big smile! They are doing so many activities there,
learning so many things and having fun. She has also become so independent and I am sure she will be very confident and well-prepared for Reception school when the time comes. I definitely recommend this nursery, not only for the focus and respect they show to children but also for how clean, tidy and well-maintained the nursery is at all times! There is also a lovely terrace on the roof where kids are also having fun throughout the day! The location is also great, 1 minute away from Ravenscourt park station and the park itself, where kids are taken to get fresh air and learn new things! I definitely recommend it!

Excellent nursery with brilliant members of staff, spacious facilities and lots of activities to help with the children's development. My daughter is nearly always happy to be dropped off in the morning and constantly comes home with arts and crafts from her day. They have also started doing more Stay
and Play afternoons so that we can watch our children in action and meet other parents.

Fantastic Nursery in Hammersmith, well run and very clean, modern and tidy. My son attended the nursery for almost 2 years and each day was a blessing to him. He has come on leaps and bounds with his learning, speech, and general care towards others. The staff are professional but friendly and empathetic,
which reassures me that my son is in the right place. They have a fantastic roof garden which is safe for the children and full of wonderful toys, tricycles and other fun and child-friendly equipment and they also go over to the local park when the weather is good. The food is nutritious and also varied for those fussy little eaters. I would highly recommend this nursery.

My son has gone to Busy Bees for almost 3 years, and he has always been very happy about going.
All the staff are very kind and patient, and there are lots of fun activities for the children.
There's an app where they upload photos and updates about my child, which is really reassuring and helpful.
There's
a roof garden with lots of toys, so the children have a dedicated outdoor area to play in, and they also go to the local park on outings as it's just 5 minutes away.
The nursery itself is very clean and modern, and there's a good variety of toys and games.
The food is varied and healthy, but tasty enough that he will always eat at least some of it (he's a fussy eater, so this is great for him) and this has encouraged him to eat a better variety of food at home.

Very happy with team at the nursery; they are kind, our daughter loves them, and they provide excellent care. The food is also great, albeit it causes issues as my daughter prefers it over anything we cook! Comes highly recommended.

Really happy with the nursery. Our son loves it and the staff are all great with him.
Having the use of the app is an excellent way to see what is going on and to keep the parents updated on children's progress.

I’ve used Hammersmith Montessori for all three of my children, including my baby girl just recently. The staff could not be more patient and kind - with me as a mother as much as with my baby! They really care about the children’s happiness as well as their learning development and my daughter has formed
a strong bond with her keyworker. I really feel that her life is enhanced by attending this nursery.

My wife and I have been thoroughly impressed by Hammersmith Busy Bees ever since our child first attended there at eight months of age. It's clear that he is delighted to go to the nursery and always comes home with a smile on his face. Well organised, staff good at communicating with parents about
what is going on, excellent themed activities and a very secure and clean nursery. I believe it has also been recently refurbished during 2020 and certainly looks very high spec. I feel as though this nursery is really differentiated by the quality of its people, who have, without fail, always come across as highly competent, cheerful and enthusiastic. This is especially notable given that everything has undoubtedly become more difficult during the Covid pandemic, but the nursery and its staff have adapted very well and quickly to deal with circumstances. Would not hesitate to recommend.

A nursery I highly recommend. The staff are smiling and caring and the facilities are great/brand new, especially for younger 0-2 years old. My daughter really had great fun over there playing with the other kids and quickly developed herself. We are so sad to leave but have to go back to France.

Our son started Busy Bees Hammersmith nursery as soon as possible after the lockdown eased in June 2020 - the staff handled the new guidelines with professionalism, common sense and rigour which put our minds at ease during what was a very stressful time.
Our son has always been happy on pick up and
drop off which is such a relief and is definitely down to the loving and fun atmosphere the staff have created with the kids. We have never had any cause to complain or raise concern. Our requests around routine have always been accommodated and the staff really encourage mental and physical development, even in a really young child.

My daughter transferred here during lockdown from another Busy Bees setting which was closed, and I have been delighted at how well she has been welcomed and encouraged during this difficult period. My daughter is confident and happy going into the nursery and has flourished over the six weeks she has
attended. Staff at this setting are warm, friendly and nurturing and I am extremely impressed with the facilities, including a lovely rooftop outdoor garden. Within the time we attended, my daughter has been encouraged to improve her literacy, has had access to a range of activities, been given a gorgeous graduation party and developed her art. Staff ensured that transition paperwork was in place for my daughter's move to reception. Excellent nursery.

Overall good but there have been a lot of changes to the environment. The staff/team, the structure of days. I think this has felt a little chaotic at times but sure the end result will be worth it.
Communication around change - particularly key workers - could be improved.
