Kids 1st Low Fell is a fantastic nursery and our daughter loves attending! Amy and the rest of the staff are brilliant. They are really supportive and work hard at building good relationships with the parents as well as the kids. Our daughter has formed good bonds with the staff in her rooms and we
can tell she is well cared for. Food sounds lovely and is well varied! The new app is really helpful as well. Thank you!

Kids 1st Low Fell

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son thoroughly enjoys his time at nursery. He is excited to attend and comes home full of stories and enthusiasm about his day. He shares new things he has learned, which fills him full of questions and wonder. For me these are all signs that he is being cared for, stimulated and challenged. During
transitions from room to room, staff have made every effort to make him feel comfortable. They all know him by name, even staff who aren't based in his room. Any queries I have had have been answered and dealt with straight away. A particular mention to Danni in Seahorses room who was his first key worker and made those early days of leaving him for the first time, that bit easier. I often recommend the nursery to others and am really grateful for our time there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended Busy Bees Low Fell for the past three years, and he absolutely loves it there. He has recently been diagnosed with some additional needs. The team have been responsive, understanding, and incredibly caring-constantly working with us to ensure his needs are fully met and that he continues
to thrive. It is clear that the staff genuinely care about his well-being. They have made thoughtful adjustments so he can access toys, learning activities, and the environment just as confidently as his peers. Their inclusive approach means he is treated the same as any other child, while still supporting him in the ways he needs.
Because of their dedication, our son has grown so much in confidence. He feels safe, secure, and happy at nursery. We feel truly supported and cared for by the whole team. They have listened to our suggestions and implemented changes almost overnight-we feel heard, reassured, and valued as parents. We cannot speak highly enough of the team.

Excellent, caring staff that get to know the children so well. Low fell kids 1st demonstrates beautifully how every interaction counts, from the moment my little boy enters the door he is greeted so warmly by all of the staff, even the chef knows his name, its been great for his confidence. The staff
are fully invested in the kids here and you know you are in good hands. Amy is an excellent, professional, responsive and hands-on manager that is always there to talk to.

My son has been going to this nursery since he was 10 months old and is now 3. He absolutely loves it! Staff are amazing and all staff make an effort to form a relationship with the children even they do not directly work with him. The communication with the staff is good and I'm always updated on my
son's care. The staff have been great at building my son's strengths and further developing his skills in areas he shows difficulties. I would highly recommend this nursery!

We have two boys at the nursery in different rooms. From when we drop them off to picking them up, I know they're safe and looked after.
The team have great processes in place and communicate really well with parents, the new app has helped this even further. If one is upset the team are great at
comforting while we sneak out, which makes leaving a lot easier - thank you.
My only wish is that we could book a few weeks annual leave in advance, per year for the boys without being charged.
All the staff are friendly, genuinely caring and take care of our boys. Thank you for everything you all do, it's not an easy job!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We can't praise Busy Bees enough! After a really tough year at another nursery in Sunderland, we moved our son here and the change was incredible. From his very first day, he was like a different child - happy, confident, and excited to go in. The atmosphere is so warm and welcoming, and you can feel
how much the staff genuinely care for the children.
Nathan and Rebecca, in particular, have been fantastic - they go above and beyond to make the children feel safe, supported, and loved. They also happy to answer any questions. The whole team works together to create such a nurturing environment, and as parents, that gives us complete peace of mind.
We only wish we had chosen Busy Bees from the start. Truly the best nursery experience we could ask for - highly recommended!

I am extremely pleased with Kids 1st Jesmond. My 2 boys settled in very well and love their time there. The boys have a very good relationship with all the staff, as do I. The staff are amazing, they're genuinely very caring and supportive and are clearly dedicated to creating a positive environment

My Daughter has been attending Kids 1st Jesmond for five months now and has settled in great! Although she was nervous her first few weeks the girls really helped to settle her in and put both of us at ease. My Daughter absolutely loves her days at nursery and now runs to the room herself without looking
back! It's lovely knowing that she's in a safe environment with staff who will go above and beyond to help. The girls in the room listened to my requests as a parent and got to know my Daughters needs and comforts. We are so grateful for the help of all the staff at Kids 1st Jesmond for making nursery fun for my Daughter, while reassuring me that she is learning and being well taken care of.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little one has attended Kids 1st Low Fell for about a year and a half now, and we've found this nursery to be absolutely brilliant.
The staff are all second to none. It's reassuring, as a parent, that so many of the staff have been with the nursery for years, as there's a deep level of continuity
and understanding the Kids 1st way. We have always been well-informed and supported, particularly during tricky times when our little boy has struggled with moving into a new room.
There is a lovely atmosphere in the nursery and the children have lots of activities and fun to keep their minds and bodies busy, as well as lots of cuddles from the amazing key workers in each room.
All in all, a brilliant setting and one we trust to enrich our little boy's early years before he moves to school.

We have had nothing but a brilliant experience with the nursery on all levels. The staff are highly professional but also very caring and genuinely care about our little boy and his play and development each day. We feel completely confident that our son gets a good balance of messy play, reading, singing,
and other activities each day. I'm glad to see that he's getting outside a bit more now the cold snap has passed we would generally get him out every day even In the rain as we feel natural light and fresh air is vital for him, especially given the busy environment in the classroom. The communication from the team has been excellent especially if he's had a day where he's been under the weather. I feel the level of attention to detail on his behaviour and mood has been great.
Our sons development and speech has come along in leaps and bounds and we really appreciate the benefits that nursery offer him.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 14-month-old son started at the nursery at the end of June. He has settled in so quickly under the genuine kindness and professional support of the teachers and directors and has had a great time since. The staff are all incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, reliable and work wonderfully as a team.
My son enjoys the wide range of activities on offer every day, including painting, arts and crafts, music and physical activities. He would not have had such a varied and fun experience if he had stayed at home. The food is nutritious and healthy. The building, rooms and garden are spacious and beautifully and thoughtfully decorated by the teachers. There has been a lot for my son to explore. He has already developed not only physical and language skills, but also confidence, independence and positive social interests. I feel like I have an extended family and friends here.

Some staff appear demotivated. There was also a high staff turnover with often new staff we don't recognise looking after the children. My child had quite a few weekly injuries and one bad one which still can be seen after a few months! Some staff needs to improve their communication skills with parents,
totally no manners!
