Review from Madhusanka G (Father of Child) published on 12 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As a father who desires excellent care and development for his child, even with a busy lifestyle, I am grateful that Blue Nest Montessori provides extraordinary care for my child. They educate my son with good manners and new learnings every day, thanks to their dedicated educators who do a marvelous job. My child often comes home from Montessori, recounting his daily activities with his teachers and friends, and how they have been. As a father, this is incredibly important to me. Thank you to every single person at Blue Nest Montessori, Borehamwood Branch.

Overall Experience
A Heartfelt Thank You to Blue Nest Montessori Nursery:
As a parent, entrusting your child's care and early education to a nursery is a significant decision. I can wholeheartedly say that choosing Blue Nest Montessori Nursery has been one of the best decisions we've made for our child.
From the moment we walked through the doors, we were struck by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The environment is bright, stimulating, and meticulously maintained, providing a safe and engaging space for children to learn and grow. The montessori resources available are fantastic, catering perfectly to the developmental needs of children in their early years.

What truly sets Blue Nest Montessori Nursery apart is the exceptional team of educators. Their dedication, passion, and genuine love for the children are evident in everything they do. They create a nurturing and supportive environment where each child feels valued, respected, and encouraged to reach their full potential. Our boy loves Blue Nest.

Review from N A (Mother of Child) published on 14 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Blue Nest Montessori have been amazing! The care and attention my son receives is absolutely brilliant - he's always happy and excited to go, which speaks volumes about the setting. The staff are super friendly and caring, which has a huge impact on my son's development.
The nursery is spotlessly clean, and the outdoor garden space is a wonderful bonus - the kids get to explore and play in a safe and nurturing environment. I love how the staff provide continuous updates via the app, keeping me informed about my son's meals, naps, and activities throughout the day. It's reassuring to know what's going on and see the fun he's having!
The variety of activities they offer is impressive, and it's clear the Montessori approach is woven into every aspect of the nursery. They celebrate special events like Mother's Day, Father's Day, and various religious festivals, making the children and parents feel included and valued.

Keep up the amazing work Blue Nest!

Review from Ana A (Mother of Child) published on 20 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
This nursery was the best choice for my son! We've been to a different one before but he was not happy at all.
We couldn't be happier with our experience at this nursery! Our son attended for 2 years, and the growth we've seen in him-both academically and emotionally-has been incredible.

It is also newly refurbished and the environment is amaizing!

Review from Suzana R (Mother of Child) published on 27 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
After a difficult experience at another nursery, enrolling our daughter at Blue Nest Montessori School was the best decision we made. The staff are incredibly caring, creating a warm and welcoming environment where our daughter has flourished. The Montessori approach has ignited her love for learning and we appreciate the excellent communication and involvement from the school.
With great facilities and a focus on hands-on exploration, Blue Nest Montessori is a fantastic choice for any parent seeking a nurturing and stimulating setting for their child. The management and the team are absolutely amazing and they go above and beyond to make every child happy.

Highly recommended!

Review from F R (Mother of Child) published on 17 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our son has been going to Blue Nest Montessori School for over two years and we are very pleased. It's a fantastic nursery run by intelligent, thoughtful and extremely caring people. The nursery understands its responsibility of looking after and protecting your child while nourishing the littluns with plenty of activities which open their minds and make them smile. They spend lots of time outside in the garden and sometimes they take the kids to parks or to the library. Furthermore, the food they provide is nutritious and always devoured by our kid.

Most important, is how happy our child is when he arrives and (even sad!) when he leaves. Thank you so much for looking after our lovely kids.

Overall Experience
My son has been attending Sparkling Stars since he was 9 months old and he is due to leave to go to school this summer.
We have always been really pleased with the nursery and staff. They are all genuinely very caring and helpful. He is very happy here and will very much miss it when he leaves.
We have nothing but positive to say about the staff and would definitely recommend.

The nursery has gone from strength to strength.

Overall Experience

I am a parent of a child that is at Sparkling Stars, it's a lovely place and my child has grown in confidence, she loves going and she has made many friends. The staff are polite and warming and always make me feel that I can talk to them if I have any worries about my child, my child is very happy and it's all down to the hard work, love and care of the staff.
