May 26, 2021 at 12:00 amWe have had a very positive experience with our daughter’s nursery. We were unsure how she would settle in after the isolation of lockdown but she has absolutely thrived and is excited when we say she has nursery in the morning. I was worried she would regress with potty training at nursery but thankfully this hasn’t happened and we are very grateful to the staff for making her feel so at ease.

August 9, 2021 at 12:00 amMy child has loved Colourbox Montessori School – Barrow. The staff are friendly and welcoming at drop off/pick up. My child’s independence and confidence has grown so quickly since starting and has been so helpful at home (laying the table/tidying plates up) all skills learnt from nursery. I can’t wait to start my younger child here, as I know they will thrive at this nursery.

April 21, 2022 at 12:00 amAs a first time mum, I was dreading leaving my little girl for the first time. Barrow Colourbox Montessori School have looked after her for the past six months, above and beyond expectations. The resources they have are endless, the girls in the nest are wonderful, their attitudes to their jobs and children are out of this world, I could not wish for a better team to look after my little girl. I would never go elsewhere for her or any future children. The nest is immaculate, the food menus are delicious and the things my daughter has learnt are just amazing. I can’t thank Colourbox enough for how wonderful they are.

April 21, 2022 at 12:00 amBoth my children have settled in so quickly due to the fantastic staff and wonderful nursery environment. I never worry about their physical or emotional well-being as I know they are extremely well-taken care of. They are really flourishing at Colourbox Montessori School and I couldn’t ask for more!

April 21, 2022 at 12:00 amThe team at the nest in Colourbox Montessori School – Barrow are superb. Our little toddler always loves going for his five afternoons there. I couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery and the team there are all outstanding. Our boy’s development has come on leaps and bounds and he’s clearly responding brilliantly to his time at the nest.

April 21, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son loves Colourbox Montessori School, as do I. He has developed to be confident and independent and you can really see him learning every day. The Montessori approach really works for him and is practiced very well at this nursery.
The staff are excellent; friendly, very attentive and raise any concerns quickly and my son loves them.
I’m so pleased we moved our son to Colourbox, we thought the previous nursery was really good, this one is just another level.

April 25, 2022 at 12:00 amAfter three months of settling into the nest that is Colourbox Montessori School – Barrow, we couldn’t be happier with the care our little one has received so far. It has made leaving him so much easier and the daily updates received are great. Allowing me to see what he is up to when he is not with us. I cannot fault the nursery at all.

April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amWe have found Colourbox to be engaging from staff on-site to the admin office helping us with any issues that may arise and also taking good care of our son at all times. We chose Colourbox due to the fact our son has additional needs and requirements and felt that they were strong in able to support him moving forward which they haven’t let us down!
Thanks for everything.

April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has now been attending Colourbox in Barrow for 2 years. We absolutely love everything about the nursery. The nursery staff are amazing and very attentive to our son’s needs and because of this, he is so happy here. I would recommend Colourbox Barrow to anyone, as it is an exceptional nursery. Thank you to all the staff who make it a great place to learn and have fun.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amThe nursery has really worked on helping to improve my daughter’s responses to emotions such as frustration. They have actively taught her skills such as sharing, writing and reading that will be valuable when she starts full-time schooling at the end of summer. The facilities are excellent and appropriate for each of the age groups within the nursery and the activities are well thought out and executed by the staff. There is a lovely selection of foods and dining facilities that children are able to use to make tea independently towards the end of the school day.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amI cannot speak highly enough of Colourbox Montessori School – Barrow and all the members of staff who work there. My little boy has been going for eighteen months and has loved it since day one. The daily routines make him feel confident and focused and give us lots to talk about when he gets home. The updates given at the end of the day also allow us to have lots of great conversations about what he’s been learning and the friends he’s been making. Our little boy lost his granddad recently who he was very close to and the staff have been absolutely amazing with the support they offered to both him and us as a family. They even recommended books which helped and made sure they spoke about what was happening using the same terminology we were using at home. It really felt like we were a team, which made it all a little easier. They have also been fully involved and engaged with the speech difficulties my son is experiencing. Again, I feel so supported and know they are doing everything possible to help my son thrive.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amThe staff are very caring and attentive to my daughter’s needs. The relaxed learning environment which really promotes independence, self-confidence and personal growth is great and the best decision we made as parents. No doubt I would recommend this nursery to any parent, family and friends. The communication with us is also very good.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amWe love Colourbox Montessori School – Barrow! Our little boy started in February and they have been brilliant every step of the way in helping settle him and ensuring he is always happy. Their attention to detail and the way they get to know each child is wonderful. We have seen huge learning advances with both our child’s vocabulary and understanding of things – and he adores playing in their lovely garden! We would 100% recommend this nursery to other parents.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amColourbox Montessori School Barrow has been brilliant since my son started in January. He is always happy to see staff he recognises. I have noticed a big increase in his vocabulary too. I would recommend this nursery for your children.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amWe couldn’t be happier with Colourbox Montessori School – Barrow, both at the Nest and Garden room. We have watched both of our children blossom, grow in confidence and learn so much. Each week they come home with something new, and this is to do with the dedication of the staff. Both of the spaces are amazing, full of activities to suit their ages. The garden spaces are brilliant. We both feel very happy knowing our children are in safe hands. Would 100% recommend this nursery and have done it to other parents. Thank you to all of the staff at Barrow.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amOur little boy loves going to nursery in the Garden Room at Colourbox Montessori School – Barrow. He’s made some good friends and it has helped him increase his confidence in communicating and socialising. The children spend a lot of time outdoors in the nursery garden which he enjoys.
One of my favourite things about the nursery is the daily updates and photos that they provide on the app.

August 22, 2023 at 12:00 amI cannot speak highly enough of The Nest at Colourbox in Barrow. My little boy has attended for well over a year and I have been blown away by the staff and facilities. Every member of the team goes above and beyond every single day. Their kindness and fun approach to learning have meant he has thrived and blossomed so much in their care.
I would recommend this nursery without hesitation and I’m so excited for his little sister to start there later this year.
