April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending since September 2022 and being a first-time mother it was hard to watch my child go into a new environment, especially without me, but the staff made this an easy transition by answering all questions and always giving me an update on his day when collecting at the end of the session. My son is always excited to go to nursery and runs in without looking back which really shows me that he enjoys the time he spends there, which is the most important thing to me. Both my son and I enjoy looking at the pictures of his day and talking about the activities that he has enjoyed which are always educational yet hands-on, which is something that is really nice to see as he enjoys similar activities at home and it really is nice to get a visual understanding of what they are doing too. I cannot recommend this nursery more.

April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth of my children have attended Colourbox Montessori School – Haverhill and they are amazing. The staff are so kind and caring towards each child and they really get to know them as individuals.
Nothing is too much to ask of the staff at Colourbox, they have been fabulous.
My eldest daughter attended throughout lockdown and was potty trained, with the help of Colourbox, very very quickly, just before her second birthday.
They are a fantastic team in each of the rooms. Would recommend them to anyone.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amMy older son attended Colourbox from 18 months to 4 years. My younger son (22 months) has been attending since September. I chose Colourbox because I love how calm and thoughtful the environment is and how the Montessori approach gives even little ones so much freedom to explore and learn independently. My sons have both been really happy there. The staff are friendly and very professional. My younger one is developing a very strong bond with one staff member in particular – so lovely to see!

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter settled in really well here and is always welcomed with a smile in the morning. It’s lovely to drop her off knowing she starts her day with a positive greeting, I always leave for work with peace of mind. Thank you.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amColourbox Haverhill has been wonderful for both our children, it is safe, caring and the staff are brilliant. I can’t imagine my children going anywhere else. I highly recommend colourbox to anyone looking for a nursery.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended Colourbox for almost a year now. Since she has been there her confidence has grown massively. She was late to walk but the staff always pushed in supporting her to get and helping her walk. She absolutely loves every day there, always so happy to be going and be around the other children and staff. Communication is good with management and staff when needed and always helpful. Cannot fault it.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amOur little one has attended the baby room for 8 months now and we are very pleased that we chose ColourBox! She is excited every morning when we wait for her to be let in, and it looks like she has lots of fun in the photos we see in the app.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amHaverhill Colourbox Nursery has been amazing for our daughters. We were very cautious about selecting a childcare provider for them and since day one at Colourbox we have felt happy and confident that they are in the best place. We love the freedom they are given to choose which activities they want to do each day. We’ve seen the girls’ confidence and development improve massively and we are very grateful to all the wonderful staff who have played a part in this.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amI could see over the two years since my son goes here a lot of progress in his speech, overall attitude and expression, things which definitely contributed to his harmonious development. The staff is very caring and professional. I confidently recommend them.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amColourbox have provided our children with an incredible development journey in these early years, they are both thriving through the experiences they have every day. Our children are excited to go through the gates every morning and when they come home they like to look at the pictures from their day and talk about what they have done with their friends and teachers. All of the teachers are friendly, caring and professional.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended Colourbox for a year now, starting when she was 7 months old. She is happy to go in the morning and always comes out at the end of the day with a big smile on her face, which speaks for itself! The staff are so friendly and caring and I love getting to see pictures and read about all the activities she gets up to each day, all of which contribute to her ongoing development. The menus are full of healthy meals and have definitely helped her have a wide and balanced diet. I am really happy with the care given at Colourbox and would recommend them to anyone requiring childcare.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amLovely staff and real thought goes into the activities for the children. Our little boy loves it there and goes in and comes out happy. Regular daily updates via the app are really helpful and it’s lovely to see photos of your child each day.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little girl loves going to school and loves the staff as much as the other children, no favourite because they are all wonderful with her. Her potty training went incredibly well with the help of the staff.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has attended Colourbox since he was 6 months old he is now 2 and absolutely loves it, he is always smiling and keen to get through the gate to play. His development has come on in leaps and bounds the staff have always been very supportive and caring and provides a safe environment for my child to be in. I would highly recommend this nursery.

May 5, 2023 at 12:00 am– nursery teachers are great and my children have learnt a lot which has helped their development. Would recommend Montessori method for learning.
– be prepared to have at least 4 weeks extra off work a year for children being sent home with minor ailments such as toothache, small raise in temp that’s still normal as won’t let parents give Calpol
– will consistently reference infectious diseases policy as a reason but does not work as sending kids home after the infection period and all kids get the same minor illnesses.
– also be aware of annual increases in cost even when your children require less adult supervision.
– overall good for kids learning and social

August 18, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth my children have attended Colourbox Montessori School – Haverhill. One from 18 months and one from 8 months, I had no qualms putting my 8 month in the arms of the setting and staff after watching my 18 month old grow and flourish in their care. His speech came on beautifully with them and his character shone. My baby girl has done the same, she has felt confident to share her experiences of life with the staff and despite being a COVID baby, her personality has built and she is now very confident, capable and articulate. I cannot rate this facility highly enough. They are a 100% choice for me. They are also great with me as a parent, and all staff communicate beautifully and clearly through the channels.

August 18, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has just started attending Colourbox and has settled in really well. She doesn’t cry at drop off or collection, which is a good sign, and babbles away after attending, so we know she has had a busy day with lots of stimulation. The meals provided sound delicious and the staff are very caring and professional. The only slight negative was I thought the induction questionnaire should have been completed a week earlier, as it didn’t leave much time to sort out medication for an allergy. Otherwise, this is a fantastic nursery!

August 18, 2023 at 12:00 amWe’ve taken both our kids here and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nursery. The staff are always friendly and my daughter is always happy and excited to see the staff in the morning. The way they teach here is also brilliant. You can clearly see the differences in a child who has gone to the Colourbox and who haven’t.

August 18, 2023 at 12:00 amOur son has attended Colourbox since he was nine months old. Over the last 18 months, he has grown into a caring, attentive and bright young boy and learned so much along the way. He has a lovely relationship with his friends in his room and they seem to have their own little community going on. He also feels safe and well looked after by his teacher who has done so much to help him learn so much. Every week he surprises us with something new! Would recommend Colourbox to anybody.
