Day Nurseries Owned by Northumbrian Trust Day Nurseries

My daughter started Forest hall nursery in Jan 25 and had her last today in August 25. I can't express enough how lovely the staff are and it shows my daughter absolutely loved it here. The only reason we left is due to my eldest being in a different school closer to home so made sense to move her closer to home and for work purposes. All the staff are professional and friendly and give you updates on what they have done throughout the day through the app and a full debrief at pick up time. I know she will miss all of the staff but they have definitely made her first school experience amazing. I would 100% recommend them to all my family and friends.

I wouldn't recommend anywhere else!

My son has been attending Rainbow for almost 4 years now and I can honestly say his time here has been nothing but amazing. The manager and her team are all wonderful ladies and it is clear to see how much they love the job they do. They provide a clean, warm, safe and nurturing environment with plenty of learning opportunities and experiences for the children and are keen to help children develop whilst working alongside parents, providing advice and support. My son has learnt so much during his time here and I love hearing about his day when I pick him up. I highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a safe and stimulating environment for their child.

We visited several nurseries in the area, but this one stood out from the moment we stepped through the gate - it just felt right. Our daughter settled in straight away and has loved it ever since. Every morning she's excited to go, looking forward to seeing her friends and the wonderful nursery staff.

Her development over the past three years has been incredible. Her speech has flourished, and she always has so many stories to share in the car on the way home. The staff are brilliant at keeping us informed, and they've been incredibly supportive during key milestones like toilet training and dropping naps.

We truly cannot fault this nursery. The team go above and beyond every day. They genuinely care, and it shows in how happy, confident, and settled our daughter is. She absolutely adores the staff and has never once had an issue - and she's there five days a week!

We're so impressed we've already signed up our next baby and she hasn't even arrived yet!

My granddaughter loves this Nursery, the staff are all fantastic and always go that extra mile. Loads of activities, healthy eating. I would recommend this nursery to anyone. The manager and the girls do a fantastic job

I have one child who attends this nursery. started at 2 years old. She loves going to nursery. In her first year, she came on leaps and bounds with the help of all the staff. Everyone is amazing and very competent in their role. Every day is full of fun and lots of learning. I highly recommend this nursery.

We moved our son from another nursery for his final pre-school year and we couldn't be happier with our decision. The staff have been brilliant with him. They're really invested in the children they take care of and take a very child-centred approach. The Early Years room is always well thought out with lots of options for the children to choose. We are so happy with the setting that our son will be moving to the after school club based on the same site when he moves to school in September. Would highly recommend.

Thank you for everything.

Great outside area for the children to play, my daughter also seems to enjoy the food.

Brilliant nursery with brilliant staff and people in it. My son is now at school but still comes here for after school club at least once a week due to our work commitments. He is treated really well along with being taught, fed and encouraged to be involved really well. It has the perfect balance in my opinion as it is not too pushy but equally not lazily in how it’s run. The children are taught good values while being able to have fun and bond with each other. Spot on.

Amazing nursery! My daughter is striving so much already! The staff are amazing and so accommodating! I couldn't be happier with my current child care provider and never been so happy with the service of care my daughter is receiving. Thank you!

The staff make the most of each area of the space indoors and outdoors. Plenty of holistic play, and I would recommend this setting time and time again.

This is a wonderful nursery. I took my little boy here a year ago when he was only 10-months-old, and felt nervous because he was so little, but the staff were all absolutely amazing. They are so warm, reassuring and loving with the children and my little boy never looked back through the door at me leaving. The manager and her team have been brilliant; they were very understanding of my changing work situation and have been super throughout the whole covid situation. I have nothing but praise for them.

The nursery is like a home from home environment for the children. The staff are well trained, friendly and very approachable. They treat the children like their own and provide a broad range of activities all year round.

My daughter loves coming to nursery here. The setting is lovely, surrounded by trees and lots of outdoor space to play in. The rooms are really well equipped, and the staff have always been fantastic, but the way they've adapted to the new challenges the last 10-months have brought has been outstanding. The new safety measures put in place for social distancing are very effective, but the fun and activities have continued regardless. I am given daily updates on my daughter's activities, as well as online updates on specific activities with photos and learning information.

Highly recommended. The manager and the team are all amazing!

Fabulous day nursery my son settled in fantastic. The staff are just so helpful and he loves going. They are always learning new things and activities. 10/10 to all the staff you all are doing an amazing job.
