The Montessori People Thornaby

We honestly couldn't recommend The Montessori People enough. My son attended nursery here and the care, kindness and attention he received from all the staff was amazing.

From the moment he started, the staff made him feel so comfortable, happy and cared for. They really took the time to get to know him as an individual, understand his personality and support him with his development. It was such a comfort knowing that when I left him, he was in a safe, loving and nurturing environment.

The staff were always so welcoming and approachable, and they kept us updated with how he was getting on throughout the day. You could genuinely see how much they cared about the children and how passionate they were about what they do.

My son has made so many lovely memories there and has come on so much during his time at nursery. It's definitely a place we will always look back on fondly, and I'm so grateful to everyone at The Montessori People for everything they have done for him

The nursery were amazing with my daughter, she came on very quickly once she started pre-school. The nursery is clean, modern with plenty of staff, the staff are all friendly and helpful. During my daughters time here the management were very supportive and go above and beyond to help you.

The staff are absolutely brilliant in the nursery. They're all so polite and lovely. I feel so reassured when I go to work knowing my son is with them. I know hand on my heart he's well cared for. The meals / snacks the nursery provide are fab and they even get my son trying new foods which he refuses to do at home. If anything was wrong they're straight on the phone and the same goes if my son needed any medication , the nursery always ring to ask permission even if I've already gave them it on the morning drop. Every other week my son is learning something new and his speech / learning has came on soo much and it's all thanks to Montessori!! The safeguarding is also outstanding. I couldn't think of a better nursery to put my child in and he'll continue here for as long as possible. Thank you to all the staff for everything you do , it's so appreciated !!

We're so grateful to have found such a loving and professional team. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a safe and enriching place for their child.

My grandson has recently taken the big step into Preschool. The staff have been so supportive and caring throughout this transition. He has taken to it like a duck to water. As a family we get great comfort knowing he is in a caring and supportive environment

A wonderful nursery, that i trust completely with my daughter. She absolutely loves it! Never had an issues at all. The environment is always clean & tidy and staff are always welcoming and friendly. They were especially helpful with my daughters allergies.

My little girl has been coming here since she was 9 months old, she will be 3 in two weeks, and we intend to keep her in preschool as we love the place so much. Soon as you step in the doors there's a loving family atmosphere. The girls are always welcoming. I don't regularly collect my daughter, one the times I did, one of the staff didn't know me so asked for our password, which makes us feel secure. Our daughter's needs are definitely met both "academically" and with her personal development. We really can't recommend them enough.

I used this nursery for my little boy 5 years ago and I'm so happy to be able to use it again for my little girl. She has rarely been minded by anyone other than myself or her dad yet is made to feel so comfortable in her Tweenies class that she skips in with a big smile each day. Staff have supported wonderfully with toileting and have a real interest in the children's likes and dislikes. She is loving nursery and I'm not surprised, the staff are lovely and the building is so warm and inviting. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby girl

Absolutely amazing nursery! Wonderful staff who made my children feel welcome from the start. Excellent management and so friendly. No question is too big or small to ask. Such a child-centred nursery. Would not go anywhere else. My children have flourished since coming here.

My daughter started to attend this nursery since she was 7 months old in 2020 and she has left in August 2024. The nursery is amazing, all the staff were great, the nursery was so flexible and able to adapt to my shift changing at short noticed. All the staff were amazing and she learnt so much. The environment and the activities they did were great. I knew my child was well looked after and cared for to a really high standard.

Fantastic nursery! A great nursery with such caring staff. The nursery environment is lovely and inviting with a variety of different resources for the children to grow and learn with. The nursery often organise visitors to come in to give the children a wide variety of learning. The meals that are provided are great too. Giving the children a good variety and balanced diet. Staff are supportive and brilliant with communication. Parent consultations are detailed and give you next steps for your children so we can support at home. Our boys have improved so much since attending and that's all down to the staff. Thank you so much! I would recommend to any families looking for a nursery placement.

All staff are lovely and are so kind and gentle will all the children. I have my full trust in the staff 100% in all the children's best interest. They learn and have fun all at the same time. I would recommend this nursery to anyone who's looking for a nursery in the area.

The Montessori People Nursery has been an amazing experience so far, the staff are very friendly, kind, understanding, knowledgeable and supportive. My second son has settled very well as did my first and both have loved being taken care of by their staff team. All of the staff in the nursery ensure that they meet your child's needs no matter the difficulty. The staff are very helpful, patient, approachable and put their all into their work. The nursery has amazing play spaces for the children indoor and outdoor. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone!

My son started at The Montessori People in January 2024, and is still attending at present. He started at 6 months old, a worry for a first-time mum. The nursery made my worries feel at ease. Their facilities are safe and great for all ages. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, my son loves coming to the nursery and has come on in leaps and bounds since. I would recommend to all, such a beautiful setting for children to learn and play. Thank you all so much.

This nursery is absolutely amazing, I was very nervous and had doubts about sending my child to a nursery but one show around here and all my doubts disappeared. The lovely staff really put my mind at ease, they answered every question and eased every worry. My child is just over 2 years old and can't really speak but one month and his speech has come along amazingly, he's saying sentences and pronouncing words more clearly. My son always goes running in with a big smile. They have a wide variety of snack options from fruit to salsa. They've helped my son with life skills: being more confident, washing his hands, brushing his teeth independently and his listening skills are improving. He's even started singing songs which is a major thing for him, I'm so proud of him and and so grateful to the amazing staff. If he's starting doing all this in one month I can't wait to see 6 months down the line.

My child has had an excellent experience of holistic growth at this nursery. We have had no complaints over the last 18 months. The whole team including the operations manager, deputy manager and everyone else have done a great job.

Amazing nursery and amazing staff. The nursery is warm, friendly and welcoming. There is a great mix of play and learning and our daughter has come on in leaps and bounds. Food is healthy and nutritious and our daughter often has seconds! We would never dream of sending our daughter and shortly our son anywhere else.

They have lovely gardens which are utilised every day and all of the rooms are spacious and bright.

Fire engine visits are always welcome by all the children.

I am thoroughly impressed with The Montessori school and its dedicated staff. Since enrolling my daughter, I've seen her progress far beyond that of her peers at other preschools. The personalised attention and care provided by the staff have exceeded all my expectations, contributing significantly to her remarkable development. With another baby on the way, we have no hesitation in choosing this nursery again. The staff truly deserve high praise for their exceptional work.
