About Montessori By Busy Bees Enfield

Rated Good by Ofsted, our nursery welcomes up to 68 children and provides a calm, happy and caring environment where children can learn at their own pace.

Our Montessori approach focuses on the whole child, supporting their development and helping them build the confidence, independence and skills they need for their next steps.

We’re passionate about creating an environment where children feel secure, listened to and excited to learn — and where our educators feel just as valued.
