I can highly recommend Colourbox at Cherrytrees. Miss Jenny and her team are caring, nurturing and show a great deal of care and love for the children they care for. We came to Cherrytrees as new adopter parents and was anxious in starting our child at nursery. They put us at ease and have supported us by communicating with us when we needed information, updated us regularly with our child's progress and have shown a genuine kindness and warmth to our child. Our little one is coming on further with his speech and communication skills and has grown a lot in confidence. What more could we ask for.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a heartfelt review. We appreciate parents sensitivity when handing their child over to a provider and expecting the highest standards of care and education. We are so delighted to read that you feel this has been your experience thanks to our dedicated, professional, and nurturing teams.
This nursery is amazing. My son is thriving, the staff are lovely and so supportive. Big shout out to Miss Camelia & Miss Jennie. My son has issues with eating and they have gone above and beyond to help support us in encouraging him and us to improve this issue. Communication is open clear and consistent, everyone is so happy and the setting is beautiful. Can recommend this nursery!!!! 10/10
Thank you so much for your kind words, it truly means a lot to us. We're so pleased to hear your son is thriving and that you've felt supported every step of the way. Miss Camelia and Miss Jennie will be so proud to hear this. Supporting children (and families) with things like eating is something we care deeply about, so it's wonderful to see that impact.
My son has grown so much in confidence since starting there and I truly believe a big part of that is down to the nursery and the wonderful team. They build such meaningful connections with the children, and you can really feel the Montessori approach in everything they do, which I know has had a huge impact on my son's development.
The food is also fantastic-he now eats such a wide variety of meals, which has been amazing to see.
I genuinely have no negatives at all and would highly recommend Cherry Trees to anyone, I only wish I had found it sooner for my daughter!
Thank you so much for your kind wordsit truly means a lot to us. Were so pleased to hear how much your son has grown in confidence and that youve felt the impact of our Montessori approach. Our team care deeply about every child, and its lovely to hear that reflected in your experience. And were glad hes been enjoying the food too!
We have had children in Colourbox at Cherry Trees since 2021 until now & have nothing but good things to say about the nursery & our children love it there. The staff are wonderful and very caring, and I feel safe taking them there!
Thank you for taking the time to leave this positive review. We're so happy you've always had such a positive experience, and wish you many more happy days at Colourbox.
Our son has such a great time at nursery and has learnt lots of new skills since he joined in November. He loves playing both inside and outside and taking part in all the weekly activities. We're really happy :-).
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're so happy to hear how much your son is enjoying his time with us and growing in confidence and skills. It's lovely to know he's embracing both indoor and outdoor learning, we're proud to be part of his journey.
My daughter comes home talking about the practitioners like they're her friends.
I am so happy we secured her space here and looking forward to watching her ongoing journey through the rooms at Colour box- Cherry Trees.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this lovely feedback. We're so pleased to hear how beautifully your daughter has settled and that she feels so connected to her practitioners, that means everything to us. Your kind words about our team, environment, communication and care have been...
My daughter has autism and is currently non-verbal but, I can honestly say, Cherry Trees have been amazing with their support and guidance.
Miss Jennie has been a a great help with everything EHCP. Camelia has been so patient and kind towards my daughter, I couldn't have ask for a better place for my daughter to go to nursery. They have been so accommodating towards my daughter's needs, ensuring she has anything to make her time there comfortable.
Thank you for your sincere and heartfelt review. We are so pleased that you've shared your experience with other families, with how you've been supported upon your special education needs journey with Colourbox. We will gratefully share this with the passionate and dedicated teams that work with your family.
The setting is also beautiful with its calm atmosphere with a range of engaging resources for the children to access as they wish. We could not recommend Cherry Trees enough. Thank you.
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We really appreciate your feedback and will be sure to share this with our dedicated teams.
My son attends Cherry Trees @ Risby twice a week and has a thoroughly good time.
The staff are all welcoming, engaging & friendly and the setting is perfect for my child's growth.
Highly recommended
Thank you for your kind review. We are so pleased to hear how happy you are and how well suited your experience has been to your child's growth.
This place is delightful, each key person my child has been allocated as he moved into the different age groups has given him support and love, as well as the other staff in the room of course.
The manager, Miss Jennie, has been a legend helping me manage his emerging SEN and supporting the various applications I have had to make regarding his future education.
The new owning company have put so much into improving the facilities and expanding to take younger children now that people can get funding from 9months rather than 2 years.
The setting is both calm and beautiful and I would recommend it in a heartbeat!
Thank you
Thank you for taking the time to leave this exceptional review. This is exactly everything we strive to be and more, and we are always so grateful when a parent takes the time to share their experiences with us in such a touching way. We will be sure to share it with the team as a token of appreciation for their dedication.
The staff are fantastic and so caring and supportive of our little boy (and us as parents!)
We couldn't ask for a better setting and experience, he attends 4 days and always comes home happy and contented having enjoyed a day of fun exploring new things and experiences. He's thriving.
I feel very reassured and happy leaving my little one in the care of all the staff and know he'll have a fab time.
Thank you so much for your lovely words! We're absolutely delighted to hear that your little boy is thriving and enjoys his days at Colourbox @ Cherry Trees. Our team work hard to create a nurturing, engaging environment where every child feels happy, safe, and inspired to explore so it's wonderful to know this shines through.
The new building is great and full of fantastic resources.
The management team are responsive and helpful.

All the staff are so dedicated and supportive to your child's needs, while always having a smile and complete rundown of the day when you do pick up.
Our son is getting to experience a great education, a delicious rotating fresh menu while getting exposed to many different flavours and types of food, all while getting the best staff possible to care for him.
Thank you so much for your wonderful words. It truly means the world to hear how happy and supported your son feels with us. Our team takes such pride in creating a nurturing, inspiring environment, one filled with learning, laughter, and lots of delicious food adventures! Hearing that you feel...
We have had a very good experience at Colourbox Cherry Trees, the staff are all very friendly and helpful and my son has settled extremely well into his first nursery setting through their confidence and care. The nursery is surrounded by a wonderful nature setting with the most enormous ancient oak tree in their playground and with views over fields and trees. We can really see our sons development progressing at this Montessori and feel the constructive activities they engage in are a super and empowering way to learn.
Thank you so much for your beautiful words. Our team will be so touched to know their warmth and care have helped make your son's first nursery experience such a positive one. We couldn't agree more, our lovely natural surroundings (and that magnificent oak tree!) make such a special backdrop for...
Wonderful setting and kind & helpful staff! My daughter loves it there and has learned so much since being there. They have really helped her come out of her shell and grow academically. The staff are really lovely and the communication from them is outstanding.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're over the moon to hear how much your daughter has grown in confidence and learning since joining us. Watching children come out of their shells and shine is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do. Our team will be so touched to know their care and communication have made such a positive difference, it truly means a lot.
The staff seem genuinely caring and update us in detail on how our son has been and the activities he has completed.
Thank you so much for your lovely words. It makes us so happy to hear how much your son enjoys his time with us, and that he even wants to come more often truly says it all! Our team cares deeply about every child's experience, so knowing he feels so comfortable, engaged, and valued means the...
From the moment we looked around the nursery, we knew it would be a positive and safe place for our Daughter. Despite emotional drop offs, which are handled with such care and empathy from the staff, our little comes out each time full of joy and smiles. It's very clear to see that she has had a wonderful time and is learning so much too. The facilities are great, lots of fun and educational activities and a lovely outside space. We are very grateful to have found such a wonderful nursery for her.
That is such a beautiful message, thank you so much for your kind words. It truly means the world to our team to know your little one feels happy, safe, and inspired with us. Those emotional drop-offs can be tough, but seeing her leave each day with smiles and stories makes it all worthwhile....
My child has been here since he was 9 months old (although they can now only start at 3 years) and he just loves coming to nursery. The staff really care and are interested in all that goes on in the children's life in and out of nursery. We love the strong Montessori ethos and are pleased with the development in skills and learning. The facilities and outdoor space allow for a wide range of activities to be done.
The staff are welcoming, warm, caring and professional.
The Montessori approach has helped my son immensely with developing his independence and self-confidence.
The setting is fantastic with access to large fields and a forest school area.
My son particularly enjoys the music session with the music teacher.
I have been continually impressed with all the extras this setting provides- special Mother's Day tea, trips into town to the library, forest school and lovely Christmas parties to name a few.
When I asked my two year old Son if he liked his house or would prefer to live somewhere different, he said "I would like to live in my house at Brookes (Cambridge)" I don't think here could be any better commendation.
