Yes. Curated Collections are hand-picked finds from trusted partners around the world—beautiful, useful pieces we think you’lllove. They’re not made by us, but they’re carefully vetted by our team.

Damaged on arrival: Email our lovely Customer Care team with photos and we’ll arrange a refund—handled just like our regular M&Y products. Change of mind (undamaged items): You can return these as a paid return. In line with our ethos, your item will be forwarded to one of our partner mother-and-baby charities. You cover postage; we’ll send you a prepaid label to ship it on.

Most Curated items ship from outside the UK, so they maytake a little longer than M&Y products. Please allow 7–12 days.

Montessori is a child-led approach created by Dr. Maria Montessori that nurtures independence, curiosity and confidence through hands-on exploration.At a glance Follow the child: match activities to their interests and stage. Learn by doing: simple, tactile materials. One skill at a time: short, step-by-step tasks build focus. Prepared environment: calm, accessible spaces. Guide, don’t direct: demonstrate once, then let them practice.Why parents love it Builds fine motor skills, problem-solving, concentration and self-esteem. Encourages real-life skills (pouring, buttoning, tidying) and early maths/language.Try it at home Offer a few purposeful activities, rotate regularly, model slowly, and let your child repeat—mistakes are part of learning. Our Montessori-inspired toys are designed to support this gentle approach at their own pace.
