Colourbox in Haverhill is such a fantastic nursery.it is beautifully set out, the staff are very welcoming and kind and also professional and organised. I am so glad that Colourbox came to Haverhill - I feel it has given my children a great start to their early learning! What an outstanding nursery in every aspect.
The staff are friendly, helpful and exceptional at their job. The setting is calm and warm. My son has thrived in such a short space of time being there. I'm very excited for my daughter to join Red Lodge next year - I can't rate Colourbox highly enough! Sheree M. My little boy started at Colourbox Newmarket recently and I can't speak highly enough of how they have cared for him.

Services
To promote and encourage the optimum intellectual, social, physical, spiritual and economic development of children through a contemporary Montessori approach to education for children from 3 months to 5 years. To maintain fully inclusive Montessori Schools that do not discriminate against individuals on the basis of race, creed, sexual preference, gender, national/ethnic origins or ability in either its admission or employment policies.
We use only the highest quality furnishings and learning materials and these are checked daily to ensure that they are safe to use and in good condition. Activities are arranged on shelves within reach of even the smallest child and new activities are introduced to reflect children's emerging interests.
Christopher's'. At The Children's House we follow Maria Montessori's ideal of a family-type environment where children from 12 months to 5 years play and learn together. This is beneficial for the younger children because they can observe and learn from the older children, while the older children benefit from consolidating their learning through teaching the younger children.
We will never be able to express how much Colourbox Montessori, and especially our son's teacher, have meant to us all as a family. Our daughter chooses to go to Colourbox over having a day off - giving us reassurance about the decision we made over 3 years ago when she first started. Her primary school has a huge act to follow!
Deciding whether a nursery will suit your child does not come down to a checklist. I started Colourbox Montessori in 1990 because I realised that many of the existing Montessori Schools did not meet the needs of working families. I recognised that whilst parents were looking for a nursery where their children had access to a wide variety of inspirational learning opportunities, flexibility was also important.

We absolutely love Colourbox Haverhill!! Our daughter has been going since she was approx 9 months old for nearly 3 years! From the start the ladies there have made us feel so comfortable and at ease! Our daughter has loved every minute and has always loved going into nursery then as she’s got older being able to tell me all about the exciting things she’s done afterwards,
The best thing for me personally has been the very low staff turnover! Being able to see the same members of staff continuously has been very reassuring and I know my daughter is safe, settled & comfortable, especially when

The team at Colourbox in Newmarket helped my son overcome some struggles I'd been having for a while. We switched nursery at Easter time 2021, and in just a few months, gave him, and me the confidence for him to start school this week. You all helped more than you will ever know! thank you all so much ❤

My son has only been attending the Haverhill Colourbox for around 6 months, and I’ve already seen a huge difference in his speech and independence. He’s always waiting at the door ready for me when I tell him it’s time for nursery and always comes home with a smile on his face. The staff are lovely and welcoming and I feel happy knowing my son is in their care.

Our son is in Colourbox Haverhill. We have found the school and learning program outstanding. Not only do they feed the brain of kids, but also help develop their EQ which is the most important. They learn to be independent, caring and clever kids. The staff is kind and caring. We are fortunate to be part of the Montessori family. Well done guys!

As soon as I walked in to Colourbox, I knew it was special and for me it was head and shoulders above any other nursery I had seen. The staff are warm, caring and fun and the rooms are beautifully set out and inviting for children. The atmosphere always seems full of excitement, yet calm and peaceful. The forest school (Country Club) is incredible.… Having looked for similar nurseries in other areas and found nothing that comes close to Colourbox, I can honestly say this place is a gem and I feel incredibly lucky to be able to send my child here (Newmarket)

My 1 and 4 year old have been at Colourbox in Newmarket since September and both love it. We have been really impressed by the care and attention shown by the staff and both have come along so much since starting there! One of my children has additional needs and I feel that staff have really considered how they can support this. We love the… Montessori approach to their education and their gain in independence has been impressive (one year old uses a cup and pushes her chair in after sitting on it!) Our 4 year old is regularly playing ‘Colourbox’ at home which I love to see

This is without doubt an outstanding nursery. Colourbox nursery stood out straight away when we were looking for somewhere for our son.
It's amazingly clean, resources are fab, staff are well presented and clearly really dedicated. There's always good communication with home including the blossom app.
Our son loves going and has definitely made… progress since attending. His development as well as how happy he is there is testament to the staff and the quality of teaching.
We can't recommend Colourbox enough - so pleased our son has a place there.

Absolutely love this place!! My daughter who is 2.5 has been going for approx over a year and from the moment she went in she has loved it!! (She’s normally quite clingy) the staff are just the best, they take each individual child and look after their needs! There’s nothing they won’t do to make sure that child is happy! They are always smiling (I… need some of what they’re having haha) so polite and so professional! I feel like a pain sometimes asking for things or saying “oops we forgot” but the ladies just take it in their stride and deliver! They

We have been at Haverhill Colourbox for nearly two years and our son absolutely loves it - all the team are very welcoming and he really has grown with confidence a lot since being there. One of things recently that i have been so impressed with is the way the nursery has dealt with Covid - they have stayed open the whole time while offering Key… workers child care through the pandemic - providing remote sessions and keeping the children who weren't at nursery involved - Mr Rav we salute you for that!! putting guidelines in place, best practices and generally stepping up and providing amazing
