A first-half Joe Garner goal lifted Forest off the bottom of the table.
Garner ghosted between two Barnsley defenders to head home Nathan Tyson's left-wing cross from close range.
Jon Macken should have equalised but headed Jamal Campbell-Ryce's centre wide, while Lewis McGugan clipped the bar with a 25-yard shot for Forest.
In the final 10 minutes Barnsley twice went close, Stephen Foster headed against the bar and Anderson De Silva's 30-yard free-kick was clawed away.
